The result was merge to Coprophilia. Ok, now, before everyone starts in at me and points out that there were relatively few people here voicing to merge this information, allow me a moment to explain. This is the ninth nomination on an article that consistently fails to reach consensus. Clearly this is indicative of a problem that cannot be ignored; were I to take the "easy route" and close this one as no consensus this would only result in the 10th nomination sometime down the road. On a strictly "by the numbers" basis those arguing to delete outnumber those arguing to keep, and while that really isn't consensus it certainly indicates that allowing this to sit in it's current form is not going to please most folks. All the same, there are several well-reasoned voices for keeping this material that cannot be ignored. What we have here is a curious situation where there does exist a consensus that this article is, and likely forever will be, a dictionary definition, while at the same time there exists a consensus that it is notable. What to do? Neither this article nor the one on coprophilia are particularly large or fleshed out, and when the examples thereof are discounted both are mere stubs. When comparing this article to the state it was in a year ago it is largely unchanged except for some formatting and addition/removal of some examples of its use in the media - there is no indication that leaving this article alone will result in subsequent improvement. As there is no argument that a "cleveland steamer" is a subset of "coprophilia", I fail to see how any conclusion other than merging the material is one that will bring this issue to any semblance of a satisfactory conclusion.

It's been a year since the last Nomination, and as it was No Consensus, i feel it needs to be discussed again. Obviously i considered it for a while before posting this, and decided i did feel there was serious grounds to finally delete the article. Please in responding, consider the fact that notability and factuality have been established in previous Nominations. Unless you have a very strong argument for either of those points, keep away from the topic. However, whether the topic is notable or not, it has no serious content and there is little chance it can be improved. Also, considering it's importance in the context of related topics, i don't see much that could be added, or reason to merge the examples into larger articles. My primary reason, it is a dictionary (length) article, and impossible to make encyclopedic. Jimmi Hugh ( talk) 14:53, 26 June 2008 (UTC) reply
Comment Given that over 50,000 people have viewed the article recently one can only assume that our readership are after some information. So to delete an article from an encyclopedia, when our main goal is to give out the sum of all human knowledge (however crap </joke>), seems wrong. The facts of readership seem to indicate the article has interest and warrants expansion if possible - or at the very least a merge to Coprophilia and a redirect accordingly.
