Possible protologism. Google Books results are different, along the lines of "how does your talent stack up against the competition?". Equinox 10:55, 24 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • According to the Wikipedia article, which is tagged for possible deletion, "Dilbert creator Scott Adams helped popularize the term 'talent stack' in a blog post in which he evaluated the experience and abilities of Donald Trump after winning the 45th US Presidential Election."

  • The relevant Wikipedia article lists seven different references to the term, all from different authors. Also worth noting that some users in the deletion discussion of the article have proposed to "move to wiktionary". Laurdecl talk 05:46, 27 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Blogs don't count for us; see WT:CFI. And "move to Wiktionary" just means "it defines a word rather than a topic": whether that word is worth inclusion by our rules is not what they know about. I've added our hot word template to the entry. Equinox 23:44, 27 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Mentioning "move to Wiktionary" comments won't win you any points here: we've seen so many misbegotten monstrosities sent here to die slow and ugly deaths in rfd or rfv, like something from a genetic experiment gone horribly, horribly wrong- apparently to spare Wikipedia having to face the unpleasant choices.
