• Delete Not dictionary, and I find only uses of the word. These uses aren't infrequent—obviously, people find it funny—but I didn't find anything about the word. The article gives the impression of an original research piece reporting on the prevalence of the word, a piece of the sort that needs to exist in reliable sources first so that Wikipedia can draw on them.

• Comment The editor who removed the PROD tag that had been placed on the article observed that the number of incoming links could suggest the notability of the subject. But those incoming links were coming from a single navigation template at the bottom of those articles, Template:Mad magazine. So it's a case of the tail wagging the dog: presumably, someone added the link to the template because the article existed. Largoplazo (talk) 03:13, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm aware of this source of incoming links and somehow missed it here. ~Kvng (talk) 13:58, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete found no sources discussing the word's use in length. As pointed out, all of the inbounds came from it being on the Mad magazine template. This is similar to Cowznofski in that MAD used the term but no one discussed its use in length. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 20:18, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Per my PROD, this is OR that fails GNG. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:02, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
