"Becktionary is the collection of made-up words by the musician Beck". -- Longhair | Talk 14:10, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. I think the fact that a current musician creates new words by the bucketful is extremely interesting... remember that Shakespeare and James Joyce did the same thing. This article, unfortunately, reads more like an ad for the linked website though. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:32, May 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge or keep, per WP:FICT or similar. Remove link to external websites as necessary. Kappa 16:20, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- no reason not to merge this with the Beck article once this VfD has run its course. Soundguy99 16:25, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, should redirect to Futurama ... the word and concept is from the episode Bendin' in the Wind. Ben-w 18:36, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge abd redirect wherever this fits best (both articles if needed). Mgm|(talk) 19:16, May 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Can't redirect to two places. Barno 20:11, 4 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete trivia. It might be appropriate for a merge/redirect to Beck but it's not at all significant in the context of Futurama. Rossami (talk) 00:08, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, trivial, not encyclopaedic. Megan1967 02:07, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. A one-off joke in one episode of Futurama is not encyclopedic. -℘yrop (talk) 19:51, May 5, 2005 (UTC)
- redirect somewhere sounds ok Yuckfoo 20:39, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
