Portmanteau of redundant and acronym. Wikipedia is not a dictionary or for things made up one day. Since the creator says he made up the term, and this forum also contains an enlightening comment, I think we're looking at someone trying to make their own term catch on via Wikipedia.

  • Delete, NN non-notable neologism which is not notable. Wikipedia is NFT for things that are made up in school one day. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 23:17, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
