Chips-funga

 * – ( View AfD View log )

as per WP:NOTDICTIONARY author wants to create multiple pages on Kenyan slang. Not sure if this belongs on Wikipedia. Karl 334  ☞ TALK to ME ☜  14:46, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete on the basis not only that Wikipedia is not a dicitonary, but also that Wikipedia is not a dictionary of slang. Emeraude (talk) 15:10, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - While I found it to be an interesting read, it's still entirely unsourced, and wikipedia's not a slang dictionary, so I don't think it belongs here... Sergecross73   msg me   16:38, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Entertaining, but no. Nwlaw63 (talk) 20:19, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Do not Delete on the basis that Wikipedia on multiple other cases does work as a type of dicitonary, for both standard language and slang.For example, look up the American slang word "hook up" on wikipedia. If chips-funga must be taken off, so must all other descriptive words.Slang is an oral language that evolves among the commons, and therefore you can't expect the same type of citations as with academic works.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Winnie.imbuchi (talk • contribs) 02:25, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Simple reason: not every swahili slang word needs its own article in Wikipedia. People with such an interest can post this up on a swahili slang version of Wiktionary. (Mtotowajirani (talk) 08:39, 6 December 2011 (UTC))
 * Delete As per reasons mention by Mtotowajirani Bentogoa (talk) 08:43, 6 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete WP:NEO WP:NOTDIC etc.  Chzz  ► 09:00, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:NOTDICTIONARY It is an interesting read and informative but Wikipedia being an encyclopedia this swahili slang should be in Wiktionary  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pato Mkenya (talk • contribs) 11:37, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wiktionary. This is a DICDEF with little hope of becoming anything else; the concept is covered elsewhere (One-night stand, Casual sex). While a glossary of Kenyan slang may be interesting, it is better included at Wiktionary or perhaps Urban Dictionary. Cnilep (talk) 04:13, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
