[edit] This Guy Doesn't Know Denver

Hey, who are you to contest the legitimacy of Cholosexual. I've been using the word for years. It's become fairly commonplace in Denver since. I think that if you ever get out of your parent's basement and off the computer you might find that local slang is actually used by most people. Get over yourself and get a life.

[edit] Get Off Your High Horse California

I'm from Denver and I think it's time that something from Colorado finally get's recognized besides our mountains. And you Californians are just like New Yorkers, you think you own the whole darn country. Who are you to judge the term, and where it's used, when you don't even know about it, or where it comes from.KeyzzLouiseFloider 05:14, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree with you that I do not know the slang of Denver, but that does not change my statements. You may not be aware, but this is Wikipedia, not a collection of random information. There is much about the language that is commonly used that is not here, and this term is not at all that common. You should also read Wikipedia:No personal attacks and Wikipedia:Vandalism. You will stop using multiple accounts now, or every one of them will be blocked. Michaelbusch 05:16, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I Think That Myself & The Word Cholosexual Have Been Misrepresented

Hello sir. I think that you have a completely wrong idea of myself and the word I have submitted for this website. I chose to bring the word cholosexual to Wikipedia because I myself a resident of Denver, Colorado since 1996 use the word frequently. Since placing the word on Wikipedia it came under immediate scrutiny. So I asked friends and family of mine who are also from Denver to back me up on explaining why this is a real term. You would agree that most people or at least many have heard of the term metrosexual. This word is an offspring of that term. I think that this should be something placed on Wikipedia for the reason that quite simply someone might hear it and want to research it. I often hear new terms and doubt their legitimacy. It's just human nature to question what we do not know. I often use wikipedia for just such research. That is why I'm submitting this word. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.8.74.234 (talk) 05:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC).

Maybe, but it still doesn't meet Wikipedia:Notability, fails a half-dozen other policies, and it will be deleted unless you can document its use. Note also: right now, you are at the boundary of a block. Michaelbusch 05:33, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Adding links to this article to everything in sight may be considered Wikipedia:Vandalism, as well. You need to document your assertions, or you will be blocked. This is how Wikipedia works. Michaelbusch 05:36, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Note also: asking people to set up accounts for the sole purpose of preventing an article's deletion is known as meat puppetry and is almost always frowned upon and is a very valid reason for a block. Getting friends to attest that they use the word does not constitute a reliable source. Michaelbusch 05:54, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm not having the attest to using the word themselves rather that it is a commonly used local word. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.8.74.234 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Deletion of material from talk pages

This constitutes Wikipedia:Vandalism. Given your puppetry activity and this action, any further vandalism will lead to a block. Read and understand Wikipedia policy. Michaelbusch 06:22, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
