Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mullet (slang)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mullet (slang) was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was transwiki to Wiktionary. As of 17:31, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC), this article is still in the queue to be moved. Rossami (talk)


Wikipedia is not a slang dictionary. I'm not sure this entry can go beyond that. Delete. —Morven 08:52, Sep 12, 2004 (UTC)

  • Hmmm, it's being defined in its UK meaning. In the US, "mullet" only refers to the fish or the haircut. It's kind of a word's story, though I'd prefer an entry on the fish. Abstain, because it's not entirely dictdef. Geogre 13:36, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Same idea is expressed by any of a number of words, such as "sheep". - Furrykef 15:44, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Leave the thousands of regional, dialectal and idiolectal slang words (which are coined all the time and whose meanings can change quickly and vary widely) to the folks at urbandictionary.com. Livajo 16:33, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • I split this page off of mullet (haircut) because the content was unrelated. If people think it should go entirely, I'd have no objections. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 18:00, Sep 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Slang dictdef. Maybe transwiki to wiktionary if you're feeling generous. Gwalla | Talk 18:48, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Wiktionary. Rossami 02:40, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Wikitonary, because I don't believe there's much to say on this topic, although it is a fairly common word. -- KneeLess 19:27, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Wiktionary. Perhaps a mention in the haircut or fish article. -- Deepak 19:13, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)
