The result was Soft Redirect. As there is currently no entry for this word at Wiktionary, I'm deleting for now, but it can be restored as soon as there's an entry to point to. Mark Arsten (talk) 15:48, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Neologism. Yes, there is coverage, but this is, at best, a dicdef. Wiktionary, yes, Wikipedia, no. Fiddle Faddle 09:44, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- keep While I agree it is a neologism, it is one that describes a new and growing class of entrepreneur. The article goes beyond a dicdef in that it describes that new class of entrepreneur and the social milieu/phenomena/impact attending it. Dlohcierekim 14:03, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Soft redirect to Wiktionary per WP:NOTDICDEF. Right now this is too loosely defined, referring to virtually anyone who profits from anything related to cannabis. Given the pace of decriminalization of non-medical cannabis in the United States (and in other jurisdictions), this could someday easily be a redirect to an article that mentions the term, perhaps a new article about the cannabis industry (Economics of legal cannabis?) or an existing article such as Drug liberalization#Economics.

- Soft redirect It's certainly a valid term, appearing in a fairly large number of international papers. I agree with Gobōnobō + re: a future article. Within a year or two it will need a new article. scope_creep talk 18:19, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Soft redirect per above reasonings. Technical 13 (talk) 18:36, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
