[edit] Trinidadian slang
Violates WP:WINAD. (Arundhati Bakshi (talk • contribs)) 10:36, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per London slang, Helsinki slang, Irish slang, Canadian slang, Boston slang, et al. Hopefully expand beyond a simple list, but keep. --Grocer 11:13, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep not a dictionary entry. Should be reworked tho. Crzrussian 12:50, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Grocer, although it should at least be in alphabetical order! Keresaspa 15:38, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Grocer. --Terence Ong 16:47, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Transwiki to wiktionary... which is what should also be done with all the lists Grocer mentioned as well.--Isotope23 17:55, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- The topics and lists are of linguistic interest when grouped together --Grocer 19:15, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- This is just my personal opinion, but I don't agree with having any slang def lists on wikipedia... I think they are better served at wiktionary or wikisource. That's just my opinion though; I expect to be strongly over-ruled on this one. --Isotope23 21:36, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. It's just a way to get around WINAD. (Arundhati Bakshi (talk • contribs)) 21:50, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

- Keep, It's always a hard call to see when lists of definitions provide enough context to be encyclopedic. I think this list makes it. But that's just my loonie's worth, and it may just be that I'm distracted by the noise from the Vomit Comet coming in cause the peelers have closed. Such is life in the T-dot -- Samir ∙ T C 06:26, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
- You've probably made the best case for keeping I can think of just above! :) (Arundhati Bakshi (talk • contribs)) 12:39, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Obeah --MaNeMeBasat 16:27, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep I wrote this before I had a wiki account, how dare you consider this for deletion! --Stookie
