Slang entry in a dictionary at best -- work coined once on an episode of the Simpsons. Tabor 23:57, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect to Made-up words in The Simpsons. ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 00:59, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)
- We could redirect to Supraliminal, which it is a common mis-spelling of - if we had an article on Supraliminal (unlikely, it would probably be a dictdef anyway). Grutness|hello?
05:38, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC) - Or treat it as a misspelling of Superluminal by redirecting to Faster-than-light. FWIW, that's the spelling that Google suggests for "superliminal." FreplySpang (talk) 13:06, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect per Shiri. It's as notable as the other words on that page, but it doesn't deserve it's own article.-LtNOWIS 17:04, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I'm hesitant to recommend the creation of a disambiguation page for all the words this might be a misspelling of. This is rather an odd case, isn't it? --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 19:48, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Merge content and disambig per L33tminion's suggestion below. --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 18:54, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
- Merge content to Made-up words in The Simpsons and create a disambig for common mispellings. It's an odd situation, but I think that's the best option. --L33tminion (talk) 05:31, May 1, 2005 (UTC)

- Strong delete, this does not even require a redirect, it is a made up word from a cartoon! Bluemoose 20:04, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
- So made up words from cartoons should be deleted? What about super-notable ones, like D'oh!? The Simpsons is a very big part of our culture. Not that I don't respect your opinion-LtNOWIS 01:41, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
- Exactly, super notable ones are fine, this word was used once!, shall we make an article on every word from the simpsons just because it is popular? Bluemoose 09:08, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and Redirect, per Shiri above. --Dcfleck 22:10, 2005 May 11 (UTC)
