[edit] Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.


Unbirthday is a neologism - Unbirthday (song) puts this into context - Tiswas(t) 13:52, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Or it might be best to merge it into Through the Looking-Glass or Alice in Wonderland (1951 film) (or somewhere else) if it's not notable enough in its own right. --Stemonitis 17:25, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
In retrospect, merge & redirect would be the way forward and is partially the concensus from the previous AfD - Tiswas(t) 18:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
The concept of "unbirthday" existed for 80 years before it was a song - it isn't really sensible to make that move. The article makes things clear - there is no need to clarify in the title. If you have to - how about Unbirthday (Lewis Carroll) ? -- Beardo 18:48, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
The problem is whether or not it warrants an article on its own - As a neologism, coined in a work of literature, is it in widespread use, and are there multiple, non-trivial mentions of this - Tiswas(t) 22:38, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it be moved. --Stemonitis 00:01, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Use in a Series of Unfortunate Events

I believe the term Unbirthday was used in the "Lemony Snicket" series of books A Series of Unfortunate Events. I believe it was the in the first book, but it has been a long time since I have read any of the series so I may be mistaken. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.80.31.195 (talk) 17:14, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
