Corpsicle[edit]

This article asserts no notability through reliable sources, and also Wikipedia is not a dictionary, so therefore this article is inappropriate and should be deleted. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:37, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Science fiction concept that's been used in a number of notable works. Referenced; references could be improved, but they're good enough. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 23:09, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep Frivolous cookie-cutter nomination. The article cites multiple sources and so it appears that the nominator has not read it. Colonel Warden (talk) 23:13, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Try "wikipedia is not a dictionary" then. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 23:27, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Try reading the article? It's not a dictdef. And even if it were, there's a better solution in this case than deletion. Bryan Derksen (talk) 01:32, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The article is more that a dictionary definition. I've added another book BTW. Kevin (talk) 00:43, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. When this article was prodded I made a suggestion on the talk page of better alternatives to deletion. Since apparently no attention was paid one way or another, I'm guessing the prod was merely a pre-AfD formality. Bryan Derksen (talk) 01:31, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Yes, Bryan, that appears to be the case. The usual thought put into the AfD. --Blechnic (talk) 03:56, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- - Keep as its own article, as Kevin says, it is more than a dictionary definition and has adequate sources.
Keep - oh, come on. Not only can I not disagree with the assessment that the nominator has failed to read the article, but everyone's got a corpsicle story. We get stories written about science fiction story writers discussing their corpsicle stories. --Kiz o r 19:52, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
