Gandhigiri

This article is on a 'newly-coined neologism', a criterion for deletion. Please do not forget that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. It is recommended that some part of this article be merged into Lage Raho Munna Bhai, especially that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services bit. See WP:NEO. Ranvir Sena 09:16, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 09:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Lage Raho Munna Bhai and delete. Sarvagnya 10:06, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep/Week Merge with Lage Raho Munna Bhai, and United States Citizenship and Immigration Services per Ranvir Sena; this was rather newsworthy several weeks back. [1], [2],[3], [4], [5] etc. etc. Zidel333
Delete - the article admits that its a neologism. Bigdaddy1981 16:35, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Merge with Gandhism or Lage Raho Munna Bhai. Just a recent fad which is already fading away from popular culture. --Agεθ020 (ΔT • ФC) 00:11, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I wouldn't have thought so , but the article seems to be a bout a notable subject, and adequately documented. DGG (talk) 07:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article is well referenced and is on a notable subject.Shyamsunder 20:03, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

'Notable subject'? Who/what is the subject of the article? If you think 'Gandhi' is, then why not redirect it to the synonym of the neologism 'Gandhigiri' to 'Gandhism'? You can merge Gandhigiri to Gandhism. That would be the best decision. -- Ranvir Sena 10:09, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Gandhism/Lage Raho Munna Bhai. Not much notability beyond the film. utcursch | talk 12:10, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No notability beyond the film. -- Ranvir Sena 12:39, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

-::'Notable subject'? Who/what is the subject of the article? If you think 'Gandhi' is, then why not redirect it to the synonym of the neologism 'Gandhigiri' to '[[Gandhism]]'? You can merge [[Gandhigiri]] to [[Gandhism]]. That would be the best decision. Defending such newly-coined neologisms would encourage people like [[User:Classicfilms]] to start more and more articles on not-at-all notable subjects. She has started stubs on all the books she has seen (yeah, 'seen'), eg [[Hitchhiker's Guide to the Internet]] (created in Dec 2006 and still empty)[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hitchhiker%27s_Guide_to_the_Internet&action=history] , [[Whole Internet User's Guide and Catalog]] and [[Scientific American Special Issue on Communications, Computers, and Networks]] to name a few. Is [[Ed Krol]] (who's he?! only [[User:Classicfilms]] would know) paying people to edit Wikipedia for advertising him and his nonnotable works? I think I should remind her of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_%28books%29#Criteria book notability criteria]. -- [[User:Ranvir Sena|Ranvir Sena]] 10:09, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
