The result was delete as neologism. It is not a speedy, for recreation, as the previous article was completely different, as in even the word definition and attribution was different. So I see no need to salt for now. - Nabla (talk) 16:34, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
AfDs for this article:
- Beme (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Appears to be a non-notable neologism lacking references, even cohesiveness. --EEMIV (talk) 03:07, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Didn't see previous AfD; I've also applied CSD tag. Admin. can ascertain whether this is close enough to the previously deleted material to warrant speedy deletion. --EEMIV (talk) 03:10, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete and salt as a re-creation of an article previously deleted via a clear Delete consensus on a prior AFD. Beyond that, this is a neologism invented on a blog and is therefore not notable. KleenupKrew (talk) 11:20, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete neologism. The previous AfD occurred in February 2007, more than a year before this article was started (and its author, Nicholasmayer12, has contributed only to this article and his userspace). I'm assuming good faith and suggesting that salting is not needed here as it would be biting a newbie. B.Wind (talk) 05:00, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete - recreation of previously deleted content. PhilKnight (talk) 18:48, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Hangon-- I am the author of this article and a legitimate newbie, and it was my impression that the previously deleted article defined beme as a meme spread by a blog, which is a completely different definition from the one I am presenting. KleenupKrew has mistakingly assumed that my article supports this definition and is a replication. It is not a second attempt at this definition and so does not qualify for Speedy delete. I am working to craft this article to meet the Wikipedia specs. The definition that I present was coined by the inventor/ entrepreneur of SERIUS satellite radio, Onstar, and a well- known biotech company. Dr. Rothblatt was also recently inducted into the American Philosophical Society. 5 non- profit foundations have been created whose core is this definition of the word Beme and it's release to the world took place in May of 06 at IEET/Stanford Conference on Human Enhancement Technologies and Human Rights, which was held at Stanford University-- it is a new term coined by a big thinker, in response to a rapidly changing culture.

- Delete. There is lots of evidence on Google to suggest that this protologism is more commonly defined in two or three ways other than what the creator is suggesting, including "best evidence medical education" and the definition that was originally AfD'd. I suggest this would be more appropriate for Wiktionary unless reliable sources in sufficient quantity that have escaped my brief search can be provided.

- Non-notable (and incoherent) neologism. Delete. I don't think it meets the speedy critera as a re-creation (it has quite different content from the deleted one); it might fit into other criteria: either nonsense, or promotional of a self-invented term. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 21:55, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
