Talk:Yokel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article was nominated for deletion on January 7. The result of the discussion was keep and cleanup.

Help would be appreciated from Wikipedians from other parts of the English speaking world who can tell us how Yokels or unsophisticated country people are viewed in their areas.

I removed Larry Bird from the list of fictional yokels for obvious reasons. --- 12/1/2007

It only seems to talk about the English version of the stereotype. Perhaps the article should include some information on the American "hick" stereotype? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.67.5.25 (talk) 20:55, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
