First afd was a decision to delete, but the amount of coverage for the term appears to have picked up. Still neologistic. Patstuart^talk|edits 05:04, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep, term has WP:RS articles where it is the primary topic. [1][2](sorta) In fact, the Reader's Digest is so stodgy I think them devoting an article to a neologism is almost acceptance per se. My major problem with the term is dicdef. --Dhartung | Talk 05:34, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep, pretty much echoing Dhartung here. Needs to be fleshed out, I think, or transwiki it. --Dennisthe2 08:05, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, has enough reason to stay as it is and I see strong potential for the article to be greatly improve in the future. Mathmo ^Talk 08:17, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Delete Obvious WP:NEO failure. Also Wikipedia is not a dictionary.--Dacium 11:37, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The Reader's Digest source is sufficient to prove notability. -Toptomcat 14:19, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Machismo which is the exact same thing. Static Universe 20:11, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and Transwiki to the Wiktionary. While the sources seem good enough, this is, as Dhartung has noted (despite his vote for keeping the article), nothing more than a dictionary definition and I doubt anything else can really be added to the article. --The Way 06:34, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and Transwiki as per The Way. zadignose 19:55, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and Transwiki. I agree with The Way. Verkhovensky 18:01, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
