[edit] Too Much Information
Dicdef that was attempted to be moved to Wiktionary, but had its tag removed (in October!) by an anon (another anon created page, so it's been here for some time). The "article" also hints at neologism status. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 12:35, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 12:35, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- It's not particularly neologistic; folks have been saying it here in the Northeast for at least a decade. I don't think it has potential to grow beyond a dictdef, though, and this wouldn't be of any use to Wiktionary. Delete. —Cryptic (talk) 16:07, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep - but get rid of the "originated in" and "originated by" bits unless there's some kind of verification. Should say that it's shortened form is TMI and that there's all kinds of shortcuts for. Very encyclopaedic article (potentially). Zordrac (talk) Wishy Washy Darwikinian Eventualist 13:49, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Transwiki and delete unless the article is expanded to include the phrase's history and sources are cited (in which case, consider this a keep). Otherwise it's no better than a Wiktionary article. I wouldn't call it a neologism - I've seen this phrase used on more than one occasion (and recently used it myself). Johnleemk | Talk 15:53, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: I have withdrawn the neologism part to prevent further confusion. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 21:05, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
