  • Huh. That's not what I would've thought it meant. Delete. Exploding Boy 13:01, Jul 22, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. - Kenwarren 13:22, Jul 22, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Obscure jargon, and not at all what I was imagining, mores the pity.Ianb 13:23, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: Yeah, I thought it was some kind of tantra thing. Geogre 14:18, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete- it's an incoherent dicdef of obscure jargon with no context- can we delete it a couple of extra times, just for fun? -FZ 17:25, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. C'mon guys, let the comic-book geek types have their fun--they'll come back and write articles on quantum mechanics if we make them feel welcome. jengod 18:05, Jul 22, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep if tagged as stub. Otherwise it is a Dictdef. Arevich 21:54, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Only 34 Google hits (on exact phrase in quotes) searching on the web, and (more damning) only 53 searching "groups" (USENET). [[As of 2004] the phrase is not in sufficiently wide use to warrant an article. Dpbsmith 00:41, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC) P. S. I find it very annoying that the article does not identify the "certain television discussion forums in which the term is said to be used. (I just edited it a bit, by the way, because I could not stand the misspelling "popularitized" and once I had it open for editing I couldn't resist tinkering some more). Despite pride of editorship, (who said "after they pee in it, editors always think it tastes better?" Heinlein, maybe?) I still vote delete. Dpbsmith 00:52, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Appears itself to be an in-joke by an anon. The article itself says refers to a form of in-joke, and I feel quite out of it. Unencyclopedic IMO. Andrewa 03:15, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • If it was used on discussion forums, it would show up on google. Delete. -- Cyrius| 06:09, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Wile E. Heresiarch 15:36, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. I recognise the concept, but not the term - it's a neologism, and therefore not worthy of inclusion. Average Earthman 17:55, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable. Bacchiad 21:57, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: obscure neologism. -Sean Curtin 03:04, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep: It surely must be an expression on the rise since, Google is now showing 62 hits for what Dpbsmith found 34 just a few days ago, or perhaps he was using strict filtering?---Dittaeva 14:00, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to continuity—it's a real term, been around a few years, but doesn't need to be discussed separately.
