Do not understand article and cannot tell what it's supposed to be about --ChristianandJericho 17:43, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment A Google search suggests this is definitely a notable term, although the article as it is seems to fail WP:NOTESSAY. Needs either a substantial rewrite by a more experience editor, or to be turned into a redirect to an article that covers the same material (if one exists - this is by no means an area of expertise for me).

- Comment - this was originally posted, and AfD-ed, under the title "Cultural adaptation", because "Transcreation" was already in use as a redirect to The Little Book of Transcreation, currently at AfD here. The author asked on the talk page how it could be renamed, and since "Transcreation" is clearly the proper title I have boldly done that, and have also renamed the AfD, fixing (I hope) al the necessary links and redirects so that nothing is lost or confused.

- Keep. I was concerned that this might be a proprietary term failing WP:NEO, but Google suggests that it is in wide enough use to be a suitable article subject. JohnCD (talk) 18:59, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
