[edit] Skrilla

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

This is non-notable, nonsense slang with no valid references, unrelated content (Bill Gates and Flava Flav?), and sock puppetry. You'reMyJuliet 20:43, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

This article should not be deleted as it educated people about skrilla, a term steadily gaining popularity in today's culture. Casey5729 20:47, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. No evidence offered that it is "steadily gaining popularity in today's culture."--Bedivere 20:49, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

There is no evidence that the references are not validCasey5729 20:53, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

• I haven't been able to find a Wikipedia page on it, but Urban Dictionary links are never considered valid references, because they are all user created. ---You'reMyJuliet 21:06, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete until it has moved from "steadily gaining" to "has provably gained". Lacks a credible source, and Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day. And right now this article is complete bollocks, see the second para. Cruftbane, 22:30, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

It would appear as those posting above need to spend more time away from their computer and experience the world as this is truly a recognized word in the inner city culture. No reason to be bigots towards those of lesser economic status. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Js240sx (talk • contribs) 23:22, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
