  • Keep/merge There are no new words here and the topic seems valid. It might be incorporated into some more general article such as high residue diet but that's ordinary editing, not deletion. Andrew D. (talk) 11:41, 6 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, can be referenced, a handful citations have been added, meets WP:GNG, and is not a "one-off" term judging from four decades of sources. Coined sometimes before 1988, it hardly a neologism either. Sam Sailor Talk! 18:02, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as there's seems to be enough convincing for its own article. SwisterTwister talk 00:30, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge, probably to fad diet. That there are "no new words" obviously doesn't mean it's not a neologism, but regardless there seem to be enough sources to merit including somewhere. The problem as far as it having its own article is that the sources I see using it do so as a catchall for "people trying to 'eat healthy' but not actually eating all that healthy". In other words, it's a neologism for a concept that, in use, isn't all that clearly defined as distinct from various other terms. It seems mainly focused on falling into health fads (no carbs, no fats, etc.), which is why I say fad diet. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:38, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
