Prosetry[edit]

Is this portmanteau between prose and poetry a neologism? Cursory Google score of 5000 (compared to 25M and 135M for "prose" and "poetry" respectively) -- obviously the Googleplex is never a means to establish notability, but if this is already an established term in today's literary or academic circles (or at least their respective blogospheres, the Google score shrinks to 3000 if I filter out "blog" from the search results), personally I'd expect Google to dig up a little more information than that. In the meantime I'm questioning the verifiability of this term. --Stratadrake (talk) 20:31, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Passes WP:INTERESTING with flying colours, but WP:OR appears to be another matter. Cosmic Latte (talk) 02:05, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No references to who uses the term in this way (beyond one non-notable Chicago poet); instead, a description/defense of the term's meaning and relevance. As such, looks like WP:OR. RJC ^Talk_Contribs 23:55, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
