Unencyclopedic WP:DICDEF, unsourced acronym. CSDed in previous AfD in 2010, but I have no idea if this is at all related. If it is, I think it is speediable again. MSJapan (talk) 00:22, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

- Merge - Prior AfD (and CSD) is unrelated, referring to a Linux Distro. This is referring to an acronym. We stick acronyms in our massive List of acronyms article, and this specifically would go into List of acronyms: F#FY Fieari (talk) 01:33, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete as an unsourced WP:DICDEF. I think I've come across one or more of the lists of acronyms before, but looking at e.g. List of acronyms: F it's looking a bit wikianachronistic. Around for 11 years with no talk page and, tons of content, and almost no sources. More or less a user-generated free-for-all for plausible-sounding acronyms. Merging unsourced content is even more problematic as adding it in the first place. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 13:57, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
- Delete Uncited. Slid over to this title in 2010 when the unrelated topic was CSD. This has been uncited for a decade, no less. It's a DICDEF that may be a "neoligism that doesn't even have the merit of being newish". FeatherPluma (talk) 23:33, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
