The result was keep. Wizardman 21:52, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
non-notable initialism. The article seems to be a WP:NEOLOGISM. Tavix (talk) 00:15, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- 'tis a neologism. Possibly redirect to Stafford Beer, but I'm not sure I'd bother. ReykYO! 02:35, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Being a neologism isn't in-and-of-itself a reason to delete. The sources below seem to me to meet the requirements of WP:NEO. Hobit (talk) 12:56, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Non notable neologism. Fails WP:NEO. Undeath (talk) 04:35, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
"Loopholes can be precluded from just happening. Systems thinkers know they must design a system not just for the situation that exists but for the situations that will result when the system is put into operation. Humble system thinkers have a label for this, POSIWID, the purpose of a system is what it does (regardless of what the sponsors and developers intended it to do)."
I stopped after about 5 minutes, but I suspect there are a lot more. WP:NEO tells us only to delete a neologism if RS's can't be found that define the term. These clearly do. Hobit (talk) 02:50, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per refs found by Hobit. Subject is not neologism when is is verifiable by multiple credible sources. Has potential for improvement. --PeaceNT (talk) 02:17, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
