:::::This article merits as being a real article, because of it's many examples. It has a good description as well. I say keep.--[[User:H*Bad|H*Bad]] 18:47, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

::::::Potential, possibly, but do we have to list every made up word, some of them products? It seems to me that those exist [[Glossary|here]] (Or [[Items|here]], in the products case). {{User:Bluebry/sig}} 18:48, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

:::::::To answer your question, yes, we should list every made-up word. That's the point of the article. It doesn't matter that these items are on other, different pages. Not all of the things in the glossary are made up, and neither are most of the items. What makes these words interesting is that they're not even ''close'' to actual English words, unlike the portmanteaus and things like "arrow'd". — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:56, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Ummm.... I think this page should be deleted approx. now. Once again, the [[Glossary]] is itself a page of Homestar-specific neologisms (plus more!). Doesn't need to be merged. Just deleted. (Sorry). {{User:4kai2lyn6/sig}} 15:20, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

:I think this should be merged with the Glossary.  There are too many templates, Clanky... too many.  --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 19:03, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

::Yeah. I'm not sure if the good people of the wiki forgot about this page or what, but it should have been gone a long time ago. Get a sysop or two in here and we should be able to seal the deal. -{{User:Brightstar Shiner/sig}} 22:34, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

:::Sysops have keys to the works, not extra voting power. Such an act still requires consensus. That said, I would support a '''merge''' (as is necessary, if necessary) with [[Glossary]]. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 05:43, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm all for a merge with the Glossary, but that page is not quote ready yet. I propose putting the whole thing off for a week until the [[Talk:Glossary#Cleanup|cleanup]] is done. I'm removing the other template, as there seem to be a consensus about the merge. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 09:30, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

:{replying to Qermaq's comment first} What I meant by "get a sysop or two in here" was "get someone who can generate a little more attention for this page and actually delete/merge it with [[Glossary]] if we reach concensus to do so in here". {back to normal now} I'll help out with the Glossary cleanup if you guys want me to. I've got not much better to do at the moment. -{{User:Brightstar Shiner/sig}} 21:05, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

::While working on [[Glossary]], I realized that all of the neologisms on this page are also at the Glossary. They have almost exactly the same wording, too. Therefore, we wouldn't be doing much by "merging" this article with that one. Just saying. -{{User:Brightstar Shiner/sig}} 22:40, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

:::Since the glossary is all cleaned up, I'm making this page a redirect to it. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 07:23, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
