[edit] Altaa

German slangdef nominated by User:Nebiros. Gazpacho 10:29, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

strong delete. This word is more or less unknown in Germany. If any, it would be Alder. -- 84.176.194.61 11:40, 16 May 2005 (UTC) delete MarSch 16:33, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. --Carnildo 22:58, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
• While the slangword "altaa" (or its variants) might be non-notable, they certainly exist. I have read a German comic book where one character always says "alda". Delete or transwiki to Wiktionary. — JIP | Talk 06:22, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Löschen, Alter! (I mean, Delete, dude!). This particular spelling isn't well established enough for a Wiktionary entry. --Angr/_comhrá 06:25, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
• I just transwikied it. --Dmcdevit 23:51, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

Delete -- 1) it doesn't seem to be that common in German so it won't be used in English (and this is the English wikipedia); 2) this isn't a dictionary
