Delete. I don't think this one is verifiable, and it sounds like a term used by a group of friends. I'll change my vote to Keep if someone from Britain has heard of it before, however. Almafeta 23:15, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)- Keep. Changed vote because it seems that the main point of my contention, that it is a neologism only used by certain friends, was wrong.

- 20 seconds with Google Web turns up this. I'm struggling to see a reason to have anything more than a redirect here. The accent is covered in West Country accent, the stereotype is covered in chav, and the nickname is covered in both Plymouth and List of British regional nicknames. Redirect to the latter.

- Keep. Perfectly good article. Third paragraph is unnecessarily graphic and shows cross-over with Chav, but with trimming it's fine. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 07:57, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. It's an okay page by me, let's keep it. --JPat
- 'Keep, possibly trim per Tony Sidaway. If a topic is covered in 3 places a redirect seems inappropriate. Kappa 22:42, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
