  • Weak delete. I agree this is a non-notable neologism, not clearly defined in any sources I can see. Change to weak delete, see below. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:49, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm new here, so I don't know the exact rules about the deletion of articles. However, I do see a definition in this ON/OFF book which is as a PHD thesis a scientific piece of work and a good summary of the current debate.[1] Further, it's mentioned in the DIE ZEIT article[2] (it's the German NYT) which did apparently run as the main article of the issue. Even it's not mentioned widely over the web, it's mentioned by very reliable sources. Can concepts become part of Wikipedia only once they are regularly used? Mljakubowski (talk) 09:47, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Mljakubowski: I cannot speak for the German newspaper usage, but the book you found does indeed define it (in the future rather than commercial bookseller please link to page view on Google Books if possible, like this: Sarah Genner (3 January 2017). ON/OFF: Risks and Rewards of the Anytime-Anywhere Internet. vdf Hochschulverlag AG. pp. 163–. ISBN 978-3-7281-3799-9.). The source of their definition seems to be [1], a German language document on whose reliability again I cannot comment. That's a good start, but please read WP:NEO and WP:GNG. For new terms we need more than 1-2 sources, a more widespread use would help. If you can show this term used in let's say 5 or so more reliable sources, preferably English (so I can read them), I'd be ready to change my vote to keep. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:43, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
