This pejorative term is not discussed at the target, nor at any of the articles linked from the target page. There is evidence of some minor use of this term on the Internet, and pejorative redirects may be allowed if they are likely to be searched, but it doesn't appear to be a really likely search term, and without any discussion of the term it's just an empty pejorative used by some opponents of Christian fundamentalism. 168.12.253.66 (talk) 15:49, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete-Nom pretty much nailed it. If the term were discussed somewhere (with sourcing), that would be one thing, but absent that its just an insult/mocking.--Fyre2387 (talkcontribs) 23:19, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete It's just a slang pejorative for supposedly intolerant right-wing Christians. Christian fundamentalism is an inappropriate target because the latter is a particular theological position, not necessarily a political camp; Christofascism is just another pejorative cooked up by certain liberal Christians, and I don't see the evidence that they are connected other than in being pejorative. Maybe there's some article about politics that could be a target, but fundamentalism definitely isn't it. Mangoe (talk) 14:05, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Attack Retrieve Capture Nabla (talk) 10:23, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the target is warranted here. The connection between Hoopy and PopCap is tenouos. I suggest some other ideas:

  • Target to Pogo.com, since the rights to its best-known game were bought by Total Entertainment Network which later became Pogo
  • Target to Attack Retrieve Capture, which appears to be the only game marketed under this name
  • Some other target? Ego White Tray (talk) 04:54, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Attack Retrieve Capture as that seems to be the only page on Wikipedia that uses the term. If content is added elsewhere at a later date it can be retargetted again or a hatnote added. Thryduulf (talk) 14:35, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
