[edit] Glossary of Canadian English words

Glossary of Canadian English words (discussion|history|protect|delete|undelete|logs|links)

Collection of slang words, not verifiable, ill defined scope, can never be more than a list of words. Not encyclopedic HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 17:13, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Im Canadian and I havent heard of half those words. --Kuzwa 18:28, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, WP:NOT a slang guide, unverifiable. If possible, transwiki to Wiktionary (if there is any appopriate content). --Terence Ong (C | R) 20:04, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
    • 'Comment - Actually I think most of these are verifiable via the Canadian Oxford Dictionary (but that's beside the point). 23skidoo 02:17, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki as a Wiktionary appendix. --Howrealisreal 21:33, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Wikipedia = encyclopaedia. Wikipedia ≠ dictionary. -- IslaySolomon | talk 23:57, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to Wiktionary. On cursory glance most of the words appear to be legit though whether all could be correctly considered strictly "Canadian" is up for question. I've heard Americans use the term "bachelor suite" for example. In any event, the content here is more suited to Wiktionary. 23skidoo 02:17, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to Wiktionary. --Dennisthe2 08:16, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to Wiktionary. Not sure I agree with deleting this, despite its remarkable ability to attract nonsense additions, but the trend seems to be towards removing it. As such, moving to Wiktionary (with some sort of link left here) would prevent losing the valid content. --Ckatzchatspy 00:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
