[edit] Gash

Supposedly, Gash is a slang term for vagina specifically used in the United Kingdom. I am no expert in UK slang, but the creator of the article has added similar claims to other articles and vandalized some more, so... Rl 07:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

• Indeed, it has that meaning... and Wiktionary has it. Delete, dicdef. Dcarrano 07:42, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete dicdef. Friday 14:34, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Not only is it dicdef, but it isn't even in wide use in the UK, since I have never heard it said. This could just be region-specific slang. Sonic Mew | talk to me 15:17, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
  • It's popular in London, but even so, delete. Hiding 17:41, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Stuff the gash in the "deleted" bucket. I've heard the word used that way in the USA, but it's just a slang dicdef, with nothing encyclopedic to be said about it. Barno 15:53, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
• There was a very short-lived Channel 4 TV programme written & presented by Armando Ianucci of that name, but I doubt its notable enough for inclusion. Redirect to Wound instead? Qwghlm 17:20, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Dicdef. Do not redirect anywhere (except maybe a soft redirect to Wiktionary). Drop a line in whichever article lists sex slang. -- BD2412 ^talk 19:58, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete non notable dicef. --jonasaurus 21:20, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, non notable, or to use Barno's words "stuff the gash" Oliver Keenan 21:28, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect or dab vagina/wound. I've heard the term used in speech for vagina (or woman, just like "cunt"), but not notable enough on its own. siafu 23:22, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

• Redo Article I have heard uses of the word gash as female parts, however it is usually as far as I know, rarely used unless in a rhyming way (eg. "Flash of the Gash"), however, gash primaraly means a longe, large opening, most often an injury, so perhaps the article should be restructured to make this the primary meaning?

• I nominated the article, but I haven't actually voted. May I suggest redirecting to Zatch Bell!? Looks like there is some character with that name. Rl 17:21, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
