[edit] Asshole

Delete. unnecessary dictionary definition of slang term, poorly written, much of the page is off-topic ("Asshat" is not a synonym for "Asshole"). wikipediatrix 02:45, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

• Speedy keep, as I'm thinking the nominator likely wasn't farmiliar with Wikipedia conventions on this sort of thing. The word is clearly quite notable and articles about words (even slang words) are encyclopedic if they go into depth about the word's history, use in society, etc. Wikipedia even has an article about mother fucker.
