Tabos (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Non-notable neologism whose prod was removed. Heading this way, rather than to CSD, to avoid any biteyness. Gonzonoir (talk) 15:49, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I can't fathom how someone would think an accidental misspelling of some word should just become a hip new slang word. JIP | Talk 15:56, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Strong delete. I mean, come on, someone accidentally misspells "taco" as "tabo", and the mere fact that someone else notices this misspelling, makes him think it's notable enough to write a Wikipedia article about? Come on! Just because there are, what, a total of two people in the world who use this term doesn't mean it's encyclopedic! You have to first make it notable enough for independent news sources to write about it, and then write a Wikipedia article about it. Wikipedia is certainly not a trying ground for newly-invented slang words to try their first chance to gain publicity. JIP | Talk 19:33, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Clearly a word commonly being misspelled in a text message does not need its own article. ERK talk 16:45, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. WP:Wikipedia is not for things made up one day, even if the people who made it up are world famous in Provo. Cnilep (talk) 19:01, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete for all the good reasons cited. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:22, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete for being a neologism (WP:NEO), something made up in a single day (WP:NFT), trying to assert inherited notability (WP:NOTINHERITED) and every reason that JIP articulated above. Thryduulf (talk) 22:48, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as a neologism and because WP is not for things made up one day. --Transity (talk • contribs) 18:25, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
