  • Merge and redirect to stereotype. Keep as rewritten. Dbiv 03:24, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Is there any evidence of notability? I found very few examples of this on Google. If not, Delete. Apparently there is more notability than I had thought. Keep. — Asbestos | Talk 11:40, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Modified article. There's plenty of evidence of notability. (Even I have heard, and been confused by, the term.) I've added some of it to the article, replacing the original author's made-up examples with some real ones. The existence of the (probably deliberately) confusingly named real companies makes this slightly more than a simple dictionary definition too, I think. Keep Uncle G 14:33, 2005 Jan 8 (UTC)
  • Keep. This is always a confusing phrase first time you meet it, so it belongs here. Quasi-dictionary, but I think we can do more with it. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 19:40, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • The improvements are good, but I'm still not convinced it can be anything but a definition. Transwiki to wiktionary would be best, though I remain open to the possibility of encyclopedifying. Tuf-Kat 19:45, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep. -Sean Curtin 21:40, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep rewrite. RickK 00:56, Jan 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • I had the thought of soft redirect to Wiktionary if it can't be kept with rewrite. Alphax (t) (c) (e) 03:58, Jan 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Much better but it's still a discussion of the meaning, origins and usage of the phrase. m:Transwiki to Wiktionary. Rossami (talk) 05:01, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep. And expand if you can. Jeff Knaggs|Talk 09:25, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep, article needs cleanup and expansion. Megan1967 00:56, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • Definate keep Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 12:44, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to the Wiktionary. Not really encyclopedic. --Deathphoenix 15:22, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • keep just as encyclopedic as Blue plate special just not as complete. 66.245.209.124 06:31, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)User:Pedant
    • [This troubling entry, which the history & diffs indicate is the result of a single edit, is not consistent with a belated sig. (If Pedant can't log on at present, this may be innocent (however clumsily labelled) but to my knowledge that has not been reported as among the current peculiarities.) Link to Pedant struck thru as confusing, and possible inept forgery, pending explanation. --Jerzy(t) 17:57, 2005 Jan 13 (UTC)]]
