Scropt[edit]

Appears to be a neologism. May be, uh, original research. Or hoax. Google search is complicated by many occurrences of "scropt" as a typo for "script". However, the same author created a redir for scroptaru (now deleted) — this gets zero google hits. -- Curps 06:40, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Neologism at best. BTW, "scroptaru" might indicate that the original poster was Japanese, as it looks like a Japanese-language based gerundification of a foreign verb ("scropt" would not be a Japanese coinage, though "sukuraputeru" might be ;). HyperZonktalk 18:17, Feb 28, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I wrote it as a joke in an attempt to get trillian to look it up. It's a fake word I made up some time ago, originally made up to mock someone who misspelled script. It has no place on Wikipedia or anywhere else and should be deleted. Though if you look up "scropted" on google you will find a result on a message board of someone using it in context. Though one hit from a message board does not warrent an article. Speedy Delete it if you want. -Ryowolf
