harlista

Protologism? Should it be capitalised? SemperBlotto 20:57, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure this would pass... in Spanish! To confuse matters further, on Usenet there's a user whose username is Harlista. Overall I reckon there are three uses in running English text, but fishing them out might be quite hard. Mglovesfun (talk) 21:25, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

The term Harlista is used by Harley-Davidson on the Latin section of its website: http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US/Content/Pages/harlistas/harlista.html?locale=en_US&bmLocale=en_US

The January 2011 issue of Cycle World magazine (page 52) has a feature article titled "Harlista Buena Social Club" that details the efforts of Cuban Harley-Davidson owners to maintain their motorcycles during the trade embargo with the United States.

The question was raised as to whether the word chould be capitalized or not...since the word is based on the name Harley (short for Harley-Davidson), I think the cap is appropriate. — This comment was unsigned.
