This was deleted as creative protologism, which I think is weird, since the term has been around for many years, and is found all over social media [1][2][3] (ie. stuff like twitter). I realize it's hard to source to durable sources though. But with the rise of electric vehicles, gasoline and diesel as dinojuice (and variation) has shown up not uncommonly. So IMO, it should exist on Wiktionary. -- 65.94.43.14 18:40, 21 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Anyone can coin a word, even me. Twitter is not regarded as a reliable source, but if the term appears in durable sources (books, newspapers and magazines), and quotes can be found from those, this deletion can be reconsidered. DonnanZ (talk) 19:04, 21 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
I recreated the entry as an alternative form of dino juice with three quotes. – Einstein2 (talk) 14:15, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
