Bro (person)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Neologism. Mr. Vernon (talk) 20:26, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. I tagged it with a {prod} tag just before you AfD'd it, but we agree that this article is not on a subject that is so significant that Wikipedia needs an article about it at this time, bro. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 20:27, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. WP:NFT. The sources listed are not reliable. - Mgm|(talk) 23:21, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy close as there already is an uncontested PROD up. Let the prod run its course, and re-nominate for AFD if contested. MuZemike  ( talk ) 00:30, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Struck as I did not see that the edits were that close together. I was under the impression that it was nominated clearly after it was prodded. I'll remove the prod since we have the AFD discussion already here. MuZemike  ( talk ) 00:33, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as this is already in Wikitionary. I don't think a soft redirect wouldn't work as the dab should be towards a slang term and not as a "person" term. MuZemike  ( talk ) 00:37, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand the usage is otable enough that sources should be looked for to provide encyclopedic coverage; if not found, then is the time to propose deletion. DGG (talk) 05:36, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete--is a WP article seriously saying that one needs American Eagle clothes to be called a 'bro'? This definition is ridiculous. It might well be that there are some general characteristics attached to 'bros' (white, college-age, etc.), but that's hard to source. Besides, this article is pretty silly, just a hoax thought up by some kids who read a funny article on a tunafish blog (see 'reference' 1 to the article).
