Carsonism

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Coatrack based on what appears to be a neologism. Many sources use the term "Carsonism", but I can't find a pattern of reliable sources using it with this meaning. Also I can't see any evidence that the listed examples have been labelled as "Carsonisms". In short, this article appears to be premature at best.

Delete per nom, no reliable source coverage of this term that I could find that has to do with Ben Carson, as opposed to the very notable Bushism, which has been discussed in many such sources. Everymorning (talk) 14:18, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete If the article creator wants to keep track of stupid things said by Ben Carson they should start a blog. I find no evidence of the label 'Carsonism' is used in RS. Fails WP:GNG. Jbh ^Talk 14:45, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per nom. Wiktionary defines "Carsonism" as a historic term for "political support for Edward Carson, Baron Carson (1854–1935), leader of the Irish Unionist Alliance and Ulster Unionist Party between 1910 and 1921." -- Notecardforfree (talk) 16:29, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Funny stuff, but better to be in the Carson article, if anywhere. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 23:26, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:COATRACK and per the research by Notecardforfree which shows that the term, at this time, is connected to another person. MarnetteD|Talk 23:41, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Per nom. This is a blog post not an encyclopedia article. Capitalismojo (talk) 14:09, 19 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Soapboxing and non-notable coatracking to further some sort of political agenda. Softlavender (talk) 11:43, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's interesting that the article links to Bushism. However, that article has been around for 11 years and seems a lot better sourced. And as I recall, there were even calendars about Bushisms. I don't expect we'll be seeing any calendars about Carson. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 15:18, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
