Aisle (political term)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Deprodded without comment. This is entirely an unsourced dicdef which amounts to nothing but "Aisle means X or Y". I couldn't find any sources explaining the term, nor anything that suggests this could ever be more than an OR-laden dicdef. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 18:25, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep There's similar material already in United States Senate and United States House of Representatives. Worst case is that we merge into something like bipartisanship. Warden (talk) 18:50, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Wikipedia is not a dictionary. There's tons of jargon and neologisms around on Wikipedia. But we don't create an article on all of them because there wouldn't be much to write other than what it means, and perhaps a series of examples of how it's been used by a bunch of editorialists.

 * Keep - How can a term that is hundreds of years old be a neologism? Please, read WP:BEFORE. Bearian (talk) 19:21, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - Not a neologism, has plenty of history and wide usage. Beyond My Ken (talk) 20:22, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Per Bearian & Beyond My Ken, not a neologism & has history as well as wide usage. Article needs more sourcing, however.--JayJasper (talk) 20:35, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
