At least we killed "analogue disc record" before it entered English.
The article should reinstated, a section concerning the unique nature of its notability should be added.
This argument doesn't seem to convince (though that does resemble reasonable popularity). The fourth AFD notes the problem in this case: really crappy sources. The sort of thing that would lead me to !vote "delete without prejudice".
I recall finding a list somewhere of article titles that got lots of hits but didn't have articles, but don't recall where. I may be misremembering of course.
