[edit] Brixton Overcoat
Original research/neologism. Doesn't quite fit speedy. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 21:29, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. There's almost no content and what there is is rubbish. Questions of race relations in the UK are dealt with properly elsewhere. The term could be added to such an article as an example of slang if good sources exist. Nick mallory 02:45, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Wikipedia is not a soapbox. No content, just POV in a philosophical/social debate. --SquidSK (1MC•log) 09:16, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. I am black, and have lived in Brixton for 22 years, and have never heard this expression. --User:80.254.147.20 14:09, 29 June 2007
