It's not copyrighted on my blog http://willblogforfood.typepad.com, and in any case I wrote the articles and coined the word. No one else is involved nor is any material regarding Preferensism from any other author.

In that case, why is it notable enough to have an article in an encyclopodia? If its only existnece is an article in a blog, then it is not the type of material we'd want here. We'd need reliable, 3rd party sources which describe it. Is anything like that available? -Will Beback 05:48, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not yet.

That's cool. When such references are available that'll be a sign that the topic is sufficiently notable to add here. This is a long-term project, so there's no rush. Cheers, -Will Beback 20:36, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
