[edit] Cushtie

Is it advertising? Is it a dicdef? Is it slang? Is it even notable? No, no, no and again, no. Delete Eddie.willers 04:03, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nominator. Quale 04:06, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
• Take out the non-neutral first-person content, and one is left with practically zero content, except for a vague indication that this is some form of cushion. A Google Web search told me what this was. The article certainly didn't. But then that's because it was copied from the advertising blurb in a product catalogue, where the catalogue itself had accompanying pictures to explain what the item was. Copyvio.

My 11-year-old son added this page because he had just been given a Cushtie. He did not, repeat not, copy anything from any advertising blurb, he wrote it entirely himself. I accept that it may not be appropriate for Wikipedia (I am a fan) but please don't judge so harshly. He was attempting to reproduce the type of article he has seen in Wikepedia, he was unaware that Cushtie is not a "real" thing. If you choose to delete so be it! -- unsigned comment by 82.35.131.115

• Delete as a non-notable item. Not to nitpick, but while it is not a direct cut & paste job, it's fairly obvious that the text of the first sentence was taken from the link Uncle G posted in the copyvio message. Still, not a bad first effort for an 11 year old.--Isotope23 18:48, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

• • Oh well, at least he can go home and hug his Cushtie. I'm restoring the deleted votes.--Isotope23 19:49, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
• Sounds like a very mature "11-year-old." Delete. FCYTravis 21:57, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, and offer the "11-year-old" a bar of soap for use in washing one's mouth out. android79 00:56, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and give the kid some Lifebuoy a la A Christmas Story. --Jacquelyn Marie 01:55, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
