[edit] Voes

A term being used for unpleasant, yet not extreme feelings. If someone's behaviour makes you uncomfortable, and so that person makes you think: "i really don't need this, " then that person is VOES. Etc. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. -- Hoary 09:01, 2005 Feb 10 (UTC)

  • It also isn't a repository of nonsense. Delete. RickK 09:03, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, apparently a made-up word, article provides no explanation of who uses it and doesn't know what an adverb is. Kappa 09:52, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Dicdef, probable neologism as well, no useful content or history. Andrewa 10:49, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. I understand how this page tributed to the already wealthy Wikipedia community, besides i know what Voes is, it's dutch (Belgian) slang and has flew over to the States over the years. Steefje 12.30, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC) ...comment actually added at 11:44, 2005 Feb 10 by User:84.194.89.38
  • Transwiki to Dutch or Belgian Wiktionary if they want it. Dic def. Mgm|(talk) 13:33, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
    • I'm still going with delete as inadequately informative. Note that definitions written in English go in the English wiktionary. Kappa 18:53, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
      • Comment: Agree. I've sent the contributor, a self-confessed newcomer, a welcome, and I think one of our fellows owes them an apology for what he hastily wrote above. No change of vote. Andrewa 19:15, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, way obscure slang dicdef. Wyss 20:00, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Neologism, not in real use. Compare Tuulk above... I'd accept verifiable evidence that the word actually is being used in the U.S. but none has yet been presented. Dpbsmith (talk) 21:05, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete and no, that's not Dutch or Belgian either. 212.206.63.108 10:55, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Nonsense. Carrp | Talk 04:15, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
