I think this is an hoax. I am unimpressed by the references. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:56, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Best case scenario is that this is a dictionary definition of a non-notable term. Carrite (talk) 00:58, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not seeing any real indication of notability. It already has an entry in Urban Dictionary, which is all it deserves. Qrsdogg (talk) 17:07, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Even assuming it's not a hoax, I would delete what is essentially a disctionary definition of a word that might have been created in a minor fictional work. Bearian (talk) 21:22, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I was somewhat surprised to find actual potential reference for this article. That still fails the GNG, though, and in general the article isn't even verifiable. —chaos5023 (talk) 19:54, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
