Was proposed for deletion as “non-notable neologism used by a single academic group”; I have no objection to the deletion – the article is extremely short – but the topic seems interesting enough that I would like to see what the community thinks before it is actually deleted.

Weak DeleteKinda tough to say, but ultimately I have to go with delete. Everything I've found is mostly related to this paper. Nothing that really indicates this is notable. Jujutaculartalkcontribs 02:09, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- On second thought, the list of papers linked in the article, here, show a bit of notability. I'm open to other editors' opinions of these. Jujutaculartalkcontribs 02:16, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Seems fine for a stub. Enough references can be made to get it to work. Protonk (talk) 04:01, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- 'Delete the prodder was correct. Interesting and notable are quite different things. It is not enough that something be interesting to be included in Wikipedia, the topic of the article must meet our standards of notability. This term appears to be a neologism and the method under any name has not achieved notability through sufficient coverage in multiple reliable sources. If & when this becomes notable it may be included in the encyclopedia. Drawn Some (talk) 15:04, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
