Skinocracy[edit]
- Not a notable concept. 90 Google hits, no reference in Wikipedia. JoaoRicardo 21:51, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Those hits all seem to be on 5 web sites. Definition; I'd vote to move to Wiktionary if there was evidence it had significant or wide use, but I don't even see that for this neologism. -- Infrogmation 22:03, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Its not a term I've ever heard used, and I've just been through the battery of anti-discrimination and equal oppotunities training, where various -ocracies formed part of the discussion. Thryduulf 22:10, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, Would say move it to Wiktionary. Inter 23:09, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not notable, dictionary definition, neologism. Megan1967 02:18, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. - Greaser 02:51, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I'd only call it a dicdef if I believed a dictionary would have it. -- ckape (talk) 03:25, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- I've never heard of this. Besides, "skinocracy" doesn't sound right anyway. Shouldn't it be "dermocracy," or "keratinocracy," "melanocracy" or even "epitheliocracy"? Delete for being a neologism used by the ignorant. Inky 01:45, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Axl 18:24, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. "Dermocruft" is too kind a description. Edeans 23:49, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)
