Apparently a neologism - Googling suggests that this is not a term in current usage. Note that anonymous contributor has also edited Internet to include a link to this article. --Rlandmann 04:07, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Correct term is computer addiction. --Viriditas
  • Delete. Neologism. --Yath 04:40, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. "...the government and society around the world..." I wasn't aware that we had a global government... Anyway, obvious neologism.. ClockworkTroll 07:21, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, only because it's already at computer addiction. Maybe just redirect? - MattTM 07:36, Sep 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • Ouch, my brain! delete - TB 13:31, Sep 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: Just because I'm neglecting job applications to do Wikipedia doesn't mean I'm poisoned. My health is fine, except for the cough, the hair falling out, the skin dropping off, and the new light allergy. Geogre 13:35, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Neologism. No need to redirect to computer addiction, although that's plainly what it's referring to, since the term is simply not in common use. Gwalla | Talk 19:35, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unofficial term, not widely used --*drew 06:50, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete and don't redirect to anything. This looks like some neologism made by someone who, for some reason, think the Internet is "evil" or unhealthy. Kieff | Talk 08:11, Sep 23, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. The article is incorrectly titled, gramatically unsound (what exactly does 'Olaying computers,' mean?) and basically pointless. And to top it off some IP-numbered fool is now adding links to it on other articles--Cynical 15:59, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete Not only a neologism, but it is quite POV regarding the effect on people --Asmodai 08:01, Sep 26, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. -- J3ff 02:31, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
