This article fails WP:DEL7 & WP:DEL8, and seems to have extensively mis-cited the sources provided in the references. See the TP for the efforts of an anon user to check and substantiate the references (though I do not share their belief this was an intentional hoax.) Also seems to breach WP:NOTNEO. Having hunted around, few sources seem to use the phrase at all, and no sources treat the term as the subject of verifiable coverage Landscape repton (talk) 13:12, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- Delete I initially removed the CSD as a hoax, because it didn't appear to be a blatant hoax. The IP's work however does confirm my suspicions that this is a neologism at best, and possibly a contrived term. RickinBaltimore (talk) 13:30, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

- Delete The references I looked at all seem to be fictitious. Hoax or not this article is nonsense. Lmbro (talk) 20:05, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Probably hoax. Hopefully this will be deleted soon. Jliboe (talk) 13:05, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- Keep 10 year Hoax? Really?? It's been a minute give me some time to correct some links they go away after a while. I get over 2,000 hits on conveyed concept in quotes; I bet a number of them can used as sources. I'm having issues staying logged in here. I'm starting to think the accusation of the article being a hoax has somehow blocked my account. Sad how one voice, for whatever motivation, can cause another to have their account blocked with nothing more than an opinion. 68.170.224.31 (talk) 17:39, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- Delete This is complete nonsense. The number of hits is useful but not sufficient, e.g. "read book" (in quotes) gets 900,000; so what of it? Vikom (talk) 17:22, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I've made significant repair to source links that time had ravaged, more can be done but do what you will.Thedosmann (talk) 14:58, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment What is the notability criteria for phrases? This is an article explaining the meaning of a phrase. There could be an article about "moved rock" explaining what it means for a rock to be moved. I am asking the question because I don't know the answer.--Truthtests (talk) 22:45, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - as per nom and above delete !votes. This appears to be a case of WP:NOTESSAY. Onel5969 TT me 12:00, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
