Non-notable neologism with zero Google hits. The author (User:Xenognostic) contested my PROD with the claim, "This page contains directly sourced Wikipedia material, along with the definition of a previously undefined conjunction." Glenfarclas (talk) 06:21, 27 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete; seems to be the author's own synthesis of two existing concepts. If this really "is backed by scientific evidence relating to the study of quantum mechanics", I would expect some reliable sources indicating such. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 07:54, 27 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as WP:NEO. Armbrust Talk Contribs 08:33, 27 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. If the conjunction of the terms is previously undefined, then there won't be sources that document it, and it should be deleted - for now. There is always the possibility that the term will gain traction and coverage, and if so an article becomes appropriate. But we're not there yet.

- Delete, non-notable neologism, and exactly none of it is sourced. Hairhorn (talk) 00:11, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Non-notable neologism. Entry appears to be an attempt to use Wikipedia to introduce a linguistic innovation. —SlamDiego←T 05:16, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Also very unsoured, I suspect this is OR of a very extream kind.Slatersteven (talk) 17:57, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete There is a related technical term but this usage is OR. Jojalozzo (talk) 22:51, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Stinks of OR besides being unsourced and a neo. Niteshift36 (talk) 20:01, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
