Non-notable neologism. I've searched and failed to find any significant coverage of this term in independent reliable sources (even Dutch ones). I've also checked the corresponding articles on foreign-language Wikipedias; nothing there either. (The best was a one-word mention in this article [1].) On the talk page a merge has been suggested; but with a complete lack of sources and no evidence that this is a notable term, I think the article should simply be deleted as original research.

• Keep. In less than one minute of searching I found three references to news sources: [2][3][4], one to a definition taken from an encyclopedia: [5], and one to an apparently serious book with the term in the title: [6]. They are in Dutch, but all appear to be reliable sources to me.  --Lambiam 15:26, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  Well, apparently I'm just rubbish at searching for sources. Thanks for finding them, and consider this AFD withdrawn. Robofish (talk) 22:46, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
