[edit] Shit sandwich

Shit sandwich (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The only source is Urban Dictionary, and the South Park, Spinal Tap, and MST3K references seem sketchy at best Will (We're flying the flag all over the world) 02:15, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. In fact, automatically delete any and all articles whose only source is Urban Dictionary. I can vouch for these two words indeed appearing next to each other in dialogue in Spinal Tap, but it's a one-off pun (on "Shark Sandwich", an album title) and doesn't support the article as written.

  • Delete - Wikipedia is not a slang usage guide, or a compendium of instances where slang has occurred in popular culture. --Haemo 02:52, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as neologism. Wikipedia is not urban dictionary. DarkAudit 03:14, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Unencyclopedic. Why do you need an article to describe this subject, the title is self-explanatory. — MichaelLinnear 03:58, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Funny, but its simply not important enough to create an article about. Sens08 04:31, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per MichaelLinnear. - Crockspot 04:38, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete or move to Wiktionary - I could see defining it, but not writing an article about it. Anynobody 05:32, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete; highly unencyclopedic. --PaxEquilibrium 07:11, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I actually found a reputable source for this usage-- an interview of Berni Wrightson in The Comics Journal. Rhinoracer 07:58, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Neologism, per DarkAudit GDonato (talk) 11:17, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete- per WP:NEO Thunderwing 11:40, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. There are entirely too many neologism articles created every day, and I think we need to adopt a scorched earth policy when it comes to this nonsense. ---Cathal 15:09, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I think that a shit sandwich sums it up nicely. Slavlin 16:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete and Salt. WP is not Urban Dictionary. Horologium talk - contrib 21:18, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong delete. Who's getting the idea that we're Urban Dictionary? There's a lot of this crud on here today. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 00:52, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as nn neologism and dicdef. Ford MF 07:22, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nominator. Urban Dictionary, much like Usenet, does not constitute our definition of a reliable source. Burntsauce 16:28, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Haemo. Not a neologism, though--common phrase. JJL 23:58, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
