Regarding "punkzine"

Creating a term in a different article, then linking it, then creating article about it once it's been removed is REALLY going too far. Punkzine has not, is not, probably never will be a widely used to term to describe punk rock fanzines. Punk zine, as two words, is a different matter altogether and perfectly acceptable. Punkzine as a neologism is not.

Compare: punkzine - 2030 hits on google "punk zine" (two words, not one, quoted search) - 3,990 hits on google punk zine (two words, unquoted) - 180,000 hits on google

And I do know what I'm talking about, maintaining one of the largest punk zine libraries on the east coast (dating from 1976 to the present).
