- Delete The name of the person to whom this is (sort of) attributed is misspelled, it's not Jane but Jean Baudrillard. According to the definition of metalepsis, this would be a valid concept, but a strict search for the term seems to indicate this is something someone made up with no notability and thus fails the test for neologisms. It certainly is not anything related to Baudrillard's work, unless I'm missing sources in French or German or some other language. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 00:02, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

- Delete Not a widely-used term, as Google search shows: there's one guy talking about it in his blog and a few other people who use the adjective to describe art without referring to a particular style or movement. I don't see any value in redirecting to metalepsis which isn't about this narrow definition, so a straight delete is best. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:00, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
