No sign that this neologism passes WP:NEO or for that matter WP:GNG. The word is used by BMW as a marketing tool and that's what a basic Google search finds (besides a bizarre fandom wiki). The Google books search is more interesting because it does get a few hits, but there's no indication that the word is used in the same sense in all of these contexts. There's certainly no source that studies it specifically as an ideology and no source that mentions "Advancementalism" as a synonym. Pichpich (talk) 20:13, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete At most it is fit for a wiktionary entry, but not an article on wikipedia. Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 02:25, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I don't think it's appropriate for Wiktionary either, since the definition given here doesn't seem to be agreed upon by solid sources. Pichpich (talk) 18:32, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
