[edit] Blikey
Article reads in full: This is a person of a double ethnic minority as a member of the travelling community and of dark skin. So for a start, it looks like a dicdef. However, searching Google for both "blikey" and any one of "traveller", "travelling", "traveler", and "traveling" brings no evidence whatever that it is so used. Hoax or neologism; delete. -- Hoary 10:47, 2005 Jun 23 (UTC)
- Speedy delete - No context, no hope of becoming encyclopedic. Word gets all of 160 Google hits. --FCYTravis 10:54, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Moreover, I think you'll find that the great majority of these 160 are irrelevant. -- Hoary 13:38, 2005 Jun 23 (UTC)
- Comment: This looks like a portmanteau of "black" and "pikey". Kappa 14:37, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
