Proposed deletion

Requesting that an administrator delete this page. The so-called pooh-pooh fallacy is more properly termed an ad lapidem fallacy, for which there is a separate page. The pooh-pooh name is a colloquialism. Ad lapidem is the proper term that we use for rubbishing rather than refuting. Flumpswithmumps (talk) 09:27, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you provide sources that say so. From what I see, you may have a point calling it a hyponym, but it clearly is not a synonym. Notability seems ok.

You may have better luck with proposing a WP:MERGE and redirect. Paradoctor (talk) 14:09, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
