Slang that is most likely only known to the author and his buddies. Dismas 02:55, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: Certainly not a neologism, I've seen it on chat and forums for years. I suppose it comes from some rap artist, which would make it a redirect. Gazpacho 03:26, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Identifying which rap artist coined this term would probably be a chore, but yeah, it's not a neologism. Redirect to Nut unless a better target is determined. android  79  03:42, August 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. If I recall correctly, the first rap group to use it was N.W.A.  That being said, it existed before then (I distinctly remember hearing it back as early as the 70s).  By no means is this a neologism (you can count this is a Keep, BTW).--Mitsukai 14:18, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as non encyclopedic nonsense. I trust Gazpacho that its not a neologism. Hamster Sandwich 03:43, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Only if this can be identified as not being nonsense.(The Horse 03:49, 9 August 2005 (UTC))
 * So what's the exact definition of nonsense and how do we prove it? :-) / Peter Isotalo 12:01, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a valid slang term. Not nonsense.(Jonsey 10:22, 9 August 2005 (UTC))
 * Please observe that our official policy is that Wikipedia is not a dictionary of slang. We have a dictionary over there, which welcomes both readers that want to look up words in a dictionary and editors that want to construct a dictionary. Uncle G 09:39:55, 2005-08-09 (UTC)
 * Comment: I'm with Gazpacho; I've heard that phrase since at least 1994, so it's not a neologism at all. Like Android79 said, trying to find which rapper started the whole thing...that could be the rub.  RasputinAXP   talk  *  contribs  04:28, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup. This made the rounds years ago...I just wish I knew where it came from. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 05:01, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * "Years ago" is a very short time span when it comes to language. It needs to be around a while longer to be considered anything but a sub-culture specific fad. / Peter Isotalo 12:01, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * A patently clear delete. Utterly unencyclopedic nonsense.— Encephalon |  &zeta;  |  &Sigma;  09:02:49, 2005-08-09 (UTC)
 * Neuter as nonsensical. (sorry, couldn't resist. That's a delete.) --Blu Aardvark | (talk) 09:05, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non notable slang idiom. / Peter Isotalo 12:01, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * "Deez", used as a profanity, short for "deez nuts" (or "these testicles"), is not a neologism. I've seen it used in the Boondocks ("So you don't believe in Santa Claus, Riley?" "You know what I believe in?" "What?" "Deez." "...there is no call for that kind of language!") and in a fan letter to a Milestone comic ("you guys are the phattest, and the rest can get deez!!!"), among others; in both cases (printed over ten years apart), the reader was expected to know what was meant (the Boondocks one actually wound up on CIDU, which is how I learned what it meant). It's a bit tricky to Google for, but it's there in the tens of thousands of hits. Move to Deez, and expand Or, alternately, transwiki to Wiktionary. But don't delete. DS 13:23, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * As I said in the prior VFD discussion, you are welcome to come and add deez to Wiktionary. Please, if possible, provide proper quotations, as per Wiktionary:quotations, to stave off any disputes.  The non-idiomatic combinations, or the album track title components that occur in no other independent contexts, would probably get nominated for deletion, though. Uncle G 16:18:16, 2005-08-09 (UTC)
 * transwiki to Wiktionary. Youngamerican 13:36, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Wiktionary will say no thank you. It's a simple, unidiomatic, combination of the words "deez" and "nuts". Uncle G 16:18:16, 2005-08-09 (UTC)
 * There's nothing worth merging here, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary of slang. This is a simple non-idiomatic combination of two slang words.  For the same reasons as I gave in the prior VFD discussion, redirect to The Chronic. Uncle G 16:18:16, 2005-08-09 (UTC)

 * Delete This is slang and non-encyclopedic. Once again, a potential charter member of UrbanWiktionary.com. JDoorjam 20:11, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Or speedy delete as re-creation of deleted content. --Carnildo
 * Delete - This crap should stay at urbandictionary. I don't even think it deserves a redirect, who is going to goto wikipedia to look up Deez nuts?!?! - Hahnchen 01:36, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - agree with Hahnchen. --Cholmes75 13:25, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - Wiki not dictionary Renata3 14:17, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - Doesn't even belong in Wiktionary.  ral  315  14:20, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - It's been deleted before. Wiktionary won't even want it. Try urbandictionary. Also, the only time I've heard "deez nutz" is on Chappelle's Show or something of the sort. Hosterweis (talk) (contribs) 15:47, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
