Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Langer

Langer was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was transwiki to Wiktionary. As of 17:32, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC), this article is still in the queue to be moved. Rossami (talk)

What Wikipedia is not: "Wikipedia is not a dictionary, a usage or jargon guide, or a genealogical or biographical dictionary". Mikkalai 18:32, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Very weak delete. It's a really used Cork slang term.  It broadens out to context and a song, etc., so it's beyond a dictdef.  At the same time, it's awfully regional, and there are way cool things to say about all sorts of slang terms.  This is not an obvious case by any means, and my delete vote is based solely upon the fact that we really aren't in the business of discussing neato slang, no matter how neato it is.  Transwiki to Wiktionary.  Geogre 20:47, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)

 * Delete. I love this word, but Wikipedia is not... etc. Transwiki. &#8212;Rory &#9786; 23:00, Sep 10, 2004 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. The article at least one cultural reference, going beyond a dictionary definition.  Smerdis of Tlön 16:54, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. This article discusses the usage and surrounding culture, so is not fit for deletion. Expansion is what it needs. J OHN C OLLISON [ Ludraman] 14:48, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
