Skypin[edit]

Neologism or ad for sex site, take your pick. Google gives 42 hits for 'sex' and 'skypin'. --Lee Hunter 11:47, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Oh please, there are tons of sex sites over the web, and since they tend to be designed to google really really well, this one is obviously not notable with 42 hits. Radiant! 13:45, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as advert. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:53, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not notable website/neologism. jni 17:29, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Need more notable content than what is currently there. Zzyzx11 20:19, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with Skype. Original author seems unaware that we have a site called Skype. This material could be asdded, but not by me. What makes Skype notable is the free phone calls. I think Skype are more notable for that than sex chat, and this is not purely another sex site.--SqueakBox 17:43, Feb 26, 2005 (UTC)
  • Discussion Homeboy is also here at Wiki as well as any other words. This organization is about words and their meanings am I correct?

'Homeboy Pimp Dogging are in Wiki as well... Why not Skypin? There are over 2 million users online now as I reply this moment using Skype-- 21:56, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Improvement/Edit I am the author/creator of the term Skypin and would like to know why is this word not acceptable?

A neologism can also refer to an existing word or phrase which has been assigned a new meaning.Skypin or "Skypin for Sex" is not an existing word, phrase or existing meaning--Gtpadmin 23:07, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep - this place has listed terms like Cybersex and Phone_sex, clearly Skypin is just another way to encounter a virtual form of sex. What's wrong with explaining a term? Arguments like it only gets 42 hits may be invalid in 2 weeks.
  • Delete, basically an ad for a porn site--nixie 03:56, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, Re: basically an ad for a porn site--nixie The link to the site in question was not a porn site... it leads to a forum for individuals looking to meet and contact through a forum arena.
  • Keep - This term is new, made by the owner of the website, why wouldn't it be in wikipedia?
    • Unsigned by 81.70.123.254, and inserted above earlier discussion; it is his third edit. —Korath (Talk) 06:23, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, ad, neologism. —Korath (Talk) 06:23, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Advertising. Neologism not in any significant use. And not notable. Dpbsmith (talk) 00:51, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, I agree with Dpbsmith right there, above. Graue 10:33, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
