Contested prod. Non-notable neologism - only reference is to a press release. Appears to be related to promoting the nn band Macanta, which does not have an article. Google search on the term shows only 30 unique results, none from reliable sources. MikeWazowski (talk) 13:35, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- delete There was a brief blurb on that scottish website, but it didn't mention the term, just the band. I agree non notable advert neologism. Although the idea is cool and it might catch on as time goes on. Gaijin42 (talk) 14:08, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the feedback it's very helpful. I've deleted the name of the band as essentially this is irrelevant. The technique is the important thing. I do contest the 'non-notable neologism' argument as I feel this is very subjective. One might argue that to be notable one has to acquire vast publicity or be used colloquially; however if notable can also simply mean remarkable, then surely this should be included. It's no big deal though if it gets deleted. It will get written again by someone else when it gets famous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eachdraidheil (talk • contribs) 16:23, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:GNG as a non notable neologism for a non notable product , service, or web content. QR code is adequately covered in its own article. If it catches on and can satisfy Wikipedia NOTABILITY criteria, and reliable independent sources, it can be recreated, otherwise, try inserting in Wiktionary.
