Kazam[edit]

Proposed for speedy but borderline candidate, I'm bumping it to VfD. I didn't research it and am not voting. -- Curps 01:20, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Delete. Most recently a young girl from Cornell utilized the word in a correspondence to here colleague in the New York City region, and Kazam!, the term was reborn... Looks like a joke between friends. – Beginning 02:35, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)
Delete neologism, article as it stands is un-encyclopaedic. Megan1967 02:41, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
This word fails the Google Groups test. The only hits are foreign words, brand names, or magic words such as alakazam. It also fails the IMDB test. The film is, of course, Kazaam. Kazam is a word that will not leave the English dictionary. But it will leave the English encyclopaedia. Delete. Uncle G 02:54, 2005 Feb 16 (UTC)

Delete, not a neologism, but not encyclopedic. Wyss 20:25, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Redirect to Kazaam. After all, "Kazam" can be considered a common misspelling, right? :-). Zzyzx11 00:35, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
