WP:NOT a dictionary. Article is a dictionary definition of a Slovak language word meaning "nobleman" in English. Extended with some trivial information copied from elsewhere that belongs to other articles. Any useful content can be moved to several already existing articles.

  • Keep - not a definition, contains encyclopedic content on the title, use, history and social impact. --GW_SimulationsUser Page | Talk 22:33, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
Comment Contains some content true but not on the title. There never was an actual noble class called Zeman, and also we already have the perfectly good "common noble" or nobleman terms in English what is what's the article's about. You could just open up an article on every word of the Slovak Croat German etc etc languages then and lift some content on it's history and usage. The content can be moved to Nobility and Nobility in the Kingdom of Hungary which the article claims "Zemans" are from.Hobartimus (talk) 23:10, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
