PRODED as WP:NOTDICT. One columnist may have uses this term, but I can find no evidence that it has real currency. Ie a non -notable neologism. Not worth redirecting to Nigel Farage imo. TheLongTone (talk) 14:04, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The term has been used by more than one journalist. It is used by several national newspapers in the UK and also used by bloggers.Ellwhe (talk) 06:32, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Nigel Farage. The term is apparently in use, so a redirect could possibly be useful, but WP:Wikipedia is not a dictionary—we shouldn't have an article about the term itself. —Granger (talk · contribs) 02:27, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A neologism that fails the guidelines on neologisms; there needs to be secondary sources that talk about the concept not just a sprinkling of usage examples. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 03:37, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Farage as per User:Mr. Granger. It doesn't matter about current usage; it needs to show some longevity. As a similar example, I remember 'Cameroon' for someone who supported David Cameron in opposition, and there doesn't appear to be an article on that term (the search only goes to the country article, and there's no disambiguation page), despite it being used quite a bit by the mainstream press, and no doubt bloggers. Similarly, 'Blairite' redirects to Blairism. LS1979 (talk) 09:23, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
