Pretty straightfoward case of WP:NEOLOGISM, and there's a pretty decent bar for scientific jargon acronyms getting an article. From that policy To support an article about a particular term or concept, we must cite what reliable secondary sources say about the term or concept, not just sources that use the term. . . Not finding any real discussion of the acronym itself, and there are plenty of sources that discuss the underlying concepts without attempting an acronym. Article has also been unsourced since 2009, and I can't find any significant reliable sources actually focusing on the term on a level to satisfy WP:N.

The only sources that seem to tangentially show up are are a few bottom of the barrel things like teaching worksheets, student presentations, etc. or WP:CIRCULAR. What I can find for source quality doesn't seem to meet the bar for inclusion even in climate articles to show the acronym is widely used, much less a dedicated article. It really looks like a few teachers just slapped together an acronym years ago (article created in 2009) and nothing really came of it since. KoA (talk) 16:10, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
