[edit] Bikini line

DicDef that has been Transwikied to Wiktionary and is unencyclopedic. Kevin Rector (talk) 04:58, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, just being an informal term for a personal area doesn't make it unencyclopedic. Kappa 05:27, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• You've got to be kidding me, Kappa. Delete, not encyclopedic. RickK 06:36, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)
  • I don't think a dictionary is the right place to discuss dipilatory methods and consequences, or trends in bikini design and social acceptance. Kappa 09:53, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Changing my vote. We have an article on depilation. Merge and redirect this there. RickK 19:05, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Seems like a worthwhile stub but should be cleaned up. People come here to look up information on just about any subject, and "bikini line" is certainly a common topic. — Stevie is the man! ^{Talk | Work} 14:16, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Merge/redirect to depilation, per RickK. CDC (talk) 23:49, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Notable body area. Concur with Kappa. Wiki aint Paper. Klonimus 06:37, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, but with reservations. Somewhat notable but the article needs expansion. Megan1967 07:18, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Merge per RickK. Wiki aint toilet paper. Radiant_* 08:46, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)
• weak Keep Notable, important to many people. The real question is, will it be big enough for it's own page? I think we could fill it to a good size, but it could work either way. Merging to depilation would make some sense, but I think keep would be better, and allow for more expansion.-LtNOWIS 02:07, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • That is an irrelevant criteria. There is no minimum size for an article. Oliver Chettle 04:22, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Size of article is a legitimate consideration when deciding whether to merge or keep. I note that LtNOWIS doesn't propose to delete it. Kappa 18:05, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep It is not a dictionary definition. Oliver Chettle 04:22, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Merge as per RickK--nixie 04:00, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Keep Someone should ad an image diagraming the line. Let us not be prude!!! Psychofox 23:37, May 5, 2005 (UTC)

• Merge with Bikini waxing. Remove Remington reference. --Marianocecowski 10:51, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
  • What's wrong with the Remington reference? Kappa 11:16, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
    • Unnecessary reference to a brand name to exemplify a electric razor with an article that talks mainly about Computers? Just a comment --Marianocecowski 11:45, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
