The result of the debate was no real consensus, default to keep - I was going to transwiki it, but after looking at List of cocktails, it seems loads of them have articles. So I'll go along with Col Tom and Jeff. Proto||type 09:14, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cocksucking Cowboy

Contested PROD. This isn't really notable as cocktails go. Personally, I don't mind including cocktails, even though they're technically recipes, as long as they've shown some kind of lasting popularity. Articles on classic cocktails are a good thing. I don't like to see articles on faddish drinks like this, though. Brian G. Crawford 23:13, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Weak keep Verifiability may be a bit beyond ne - I don't have a swag of cocktail books from 15, 20 years ago to xreference in - but I do know that this drink has been around for at least 20 years by that name, as I've drunk it in bars that long ago, and served it in bars about 15 years ago. 20 years seems to exclude this from 'fad' status, IMO.

  • Keep, but I think that people would be more likely to look for it under Buttery Nipple, which redirects here. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEMES?) 02:15, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to http://wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook with the reset of the recipes and delete. GRBerry 02:32, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to Bartending/Cocktails/Cocksucking Cowboy. List and link to recipe in list of cocktails. Then redirect Cocksucking Cowboy to list of cocktails. Cedars 02:46, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, but rename to cowboy cocksucker which is quite a popular drink in leather bars. GilliamJF 05:01, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm, I knew there was something strange about that bar I went to... Cedars 10:13, 11 May 2006 (UTC) (for the record the drink also popular in average Australian bars)
