 * Delete. Probably an attack on some unspecified person. Jkelly 02:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I dont think the author is trying to slam someone, rather I think the author is using the article to define something from African American Vernacular English. I'll let others debate the merits of Transwiking this to the Wiktionary, but Wikipedia is not a dictionary.
 * Delete. Probably written by some 12 year old that goes to a bad school in an urban area. Dante 03:35, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment The style can always be cleaned up, which I've now done. May I politely request that we not insult our contributors no matter how unhelpful or grammatically incorrect their contributions are? --best, kevin  · · · Kzollman | Talk · · · 04:08, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The term does not appear in the Urban Dictionary which accepts substantially everything, nor in the Rap Dictionary, and a Usenet search turns up mostly uses of a Finnish word spelled the same way. If the author can verify that this word exists in slang, the author should submit this entry to Wiktionary instead. In the absence of evidence I am voting to delete. --Metropolitan90 06:46, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete - "joka" as a Finnish word means approximate "which" but it can also be a short form of "jokainen" "everybody" - Skysmith 13:37, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Are you Finnish? I've never seen anyone who was not Finnish or had not lived in Finland for several years understand a word of Finnish. &mdash; J I P | Talk 18:17, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Joka is also an Austrian company producing furniture which had a lot of advertising on TV when I was a kid. See . Martg76 22:41, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
