Radiclib (2nd nomination)[edit]
Neologism. Transwikied. Google hits all appear to come from Wikipedia or mirrors. Survived previous AfD in October 2005. TheProject 17:15, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Not just a neologism, but stated as such in the first sentence of the article. The article can never be expanded beyond what it is now. If it's already transwikied, then there's nothing else to do with the word but kill its WP page. -- Kicking222 17:46, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. I agree that this is a dicdef, and agree that dicdefs are inappropriate for an encyclopedia. But can something that's been in use since 1970 really be considered a neologism? ergot 15:08, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Removed adjective. I'm just a little used to calling any constructed portmanteau a neologism. :-) TheProject 15:44, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
