Entertunity[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A neologism, for which I found eight ghits. Four are Wikipedia (one deleted), three are predating the alleged creation of this word by a company (info was in now deleted article), and one is incomprehensible. The three uses of the word are in probably unreliable sources - blogs, etc, and will most likely be unconnected to this article anyway. Peridon (talk) 15:08, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable neologism. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 15:14, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NEO: "Articles on neologisms are commonly deleted, as these articles are often created in an attempt to use Wikipedia to increase usage of the term." The first, deleted version of this article included: "The term was first coined in 2012 by the founders of Stellman Global Agency (SGA)." That has been removed, but it is clear that (a) the term is very new and (b) it is being pushed by its inventors. Wikipedia is not here to help with that.

Delete clear case of WP:NEO - Wikipedia is not a place to spread the usage of a neologism. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 22:24, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is a pure neologism. There are hardly any Google hits for this word once you exclude citations to Wikipedia itself and mis-scanned publications which did not actually use the word. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:20, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Entertunity is a term derived from the words entertainment and opportunity ... to denote ceasing new ventures through strategic opportunity management. "Ceasing" is probably more accurate than the writer's actual intention, whatever it was. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:36, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
