[edit] Dink
Blackadder fancruft. Could perhaps be merged into Blackadder, but I can't find any confirmation the tribe was actually named in that series. --fvw* 20:19, 2004 Dec 18 (UTC)
- D. I cleaned it up, not realising the context of the TV series. The claims were absurd, regardless. --BesigedB 20:28, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)
KeepDelete, dreadful (should have followed my first instinct and dug even deeper than I did). Wyss 23:25, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)- del Mikkalai 02:32, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. It's not even right - it was the Watusi mentioned in the TV show. sjorford 19:34, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Keep: The only time I have ever heard this term used, was as a racial slur in reference to Vietnamese during the Vietnam War. I have augmented the article to reflect this. 21 Dec 2004
Voters please note: The original revision [1] of this article, before I cleaned it up, gives more insight into the fact that this is referencing the comedy TV series Blackadder rather than being factual reality. I did not realise this when cleaning up. --BesigedB 16:18, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Cut out the fabricated bit about the tribe and keep the rest. Wile E. Heresiarch 05:53, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
