Bear-beer-burr merger
This article appears to be more about rap and hip hop, than about an actual linguistics phenomena. Since this article appears to be a rap article, it should either be moved to a rap related article or deleted. Robot32 16:42, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and Improve to sound less like a rap article. Garr 18:06, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, actual linguistics phenomenon. Kappa 18:33, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep and IPAify. 64.194.44.220 14:10, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with African American Vernacular English on condition that the author someone actually looks up the Pollock & Berni references listed at and reports on what the linguistic literature has to say about the phenomenon. Otherwise delete as unsourced original research. --Angr (t·c) 21:02, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom. Stifle 02:23, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
