speedy tagged for nonsense, but it isn't really nonsense. However, there are zero google hits for this term, and the article isn't source. The creating user's name indicates a COI, as well. Corvus cornixtalk 01:10, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. The article has been cleaned up after the speedy nomination, but its original version, as it existed before this AfD nomination, had {Introducing...} in the lead section, an almost surefire clue of WP:MADEUP. The article as it exists now is a how-to guide with zero assertion of notability. It's like the creator wants to achieve notability through a Wikipedia article rather than the other way around. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 01:22, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Strong delete or merge with Roller skating Not only is the page badly written, formatted, and vandalized, Google brings up less than a thousand hits. It is not notable at all. If we decide to keep it — because the other articles in Articles for Deletion are just messy or unreferenced or don't meet verifiability rules while this one is really just a spin off form of roller skating — then it should be merged. ― LADY GALAXY 16:07, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Zero google hits you say? That's awful damning. Methinks this is a classic case of WP:NFT Doc Strange (talk) 20:36, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - plainly a NN cut-and-paste job from another web site. No need to redirect, as it is an unlikely search term. Created by a SPA? Bearian (talk) 20:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
