Votes in favor of/against selecting this as the best translation of the term asked
No  Velizar Vladovski (X): This is a literary translation. Although obviously existing in dictionary this is an artificial word. I am 63, quite literate and experienced, having contacted thousands of people and have never met this word until now. No one really uses it.

  -> I guess you are right Velizar. However, the same would be equally true for the source verb "dejunk", wouldn't it? :) "To dejunk" is a new word coined most probably by an adept-at-slang netizen/cybercitizen. In other words, lexical coinages are boundless.
