Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chode

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was about evenly split between "transwiki" to Wiktionary and straight "delete". Noting that Wiktionary already has this dictionary, I am going to delete it as the final uncompleted step of the transwiki process. Rossami (talk) 04:28, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Chode

This page seems to have been created on January 26 but never made it to the VfD page. I am bringing it here for resolution. Do not consider this a vote. RickK 06:11, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)

  • Rubbish. Include Chodemaster & image in deletion please. 62.252.64.18 22:41, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep. It is an informative page, as long as people add to it. Scott Gall 22:45, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Body_parts_slang. JosephBarillari 05:50, 2005 Feb 17 (according to history Uncle G 13:55, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC))
  • Keep When confronted by this unfamiliar word on IRC I hit my usual s!wiki trigger and was highly surprised to find this informative, though brief, page. Martin 07:36, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC) 81.156.238.143 07:36, 2005 Feb 26 (according to history Uncle G 13:55, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC))
    • Excuse me, but I find it funny that you say that the "weak keep" is that it is an informative entry. Perhaps you could explain to me what the dictionary is for? If I am not mistaken, then the reason for the dictionary is to look up words that one does not know the meaning of. Sorry if I am supposed to leave more info about me here. I will check back soon in case I am. 66.75.192.16 23:39, 2005 Feb 28 (according to history Uncle G 13:55, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC))
    • I suggest that you modify your trigger to aim at Wiktionary rather than at Wikipedia. Uncle G 13:55, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia is not a dictionary, it is an encyclopedia. --Fastfission 06:45, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Move to Wiktionary, let them decide if it is a useful definition or not. --Fastfission 06:46, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • I'm with Fastfission. Delete, and Let Wiktionary deal with this one. Tygar 07:31, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, slang dictionary definition. Appears to have been created in the 1990s so it's a borderline neologism. Megan1967 09:23, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Move to Wiktionary, as per above arguments. --Jacobw 10:48, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Note the existing wiktionary entry at the alternate spelling choad. —Korath (Talk) 11:47, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)
    • Well spotted. I concur. Delete. Uncle G 13:55, 2005 Mar 9 (UTC)
  • Delete, dodgy slang dicdef at most. Unhelpful. Wyss 01:28, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to wiktionary or keep. —RaD Man (talk) 02:34, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. As Korath noted, Wiktionary already has it. DaveTheRed 04:17, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as per Korath. Radiant! 10:29, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete -- also following Korath. Jonathunder 00:04, 2005 Mar 14 (UTC)
  • Delete as per Korath. This is just the suburban white gentile version of "putz", anyway. Edeans 18:54, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep it helped me what the term meant, let it help others. gordonfan
