List of Japanese sex terms
Wikipedia is not a dictionary. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 22:58, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. You are confused. See List of Islamic terms in Arabic. freestylefrappe 23:03, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per official policy, Wikipedia is not a dictionary. I would distinguish the List of Islamic terms in Arabic, if it were necessary to justify keeping that article, on the grounds that English-language writings about Islam often use transliterated Arabic terms to refer to Muslim concepts. English-language writings about sexuality, on the other hand, do not often use transliterated Japanese terms to refer to sexual concepts. --69.209.201.29 05:48, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment/Abstain. Articles should be considered for keep or delete on their own merits, not on the fact that similar articles are present on Wikipedia. Saberwyn 07:00, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep the content as this addresses WP:CSB. I would not be adverse to merging them into an actual article about sex in Japan, however. In fact, there might be an opportunity to create more context in that case. At any rate, let's not lose this information. Jacqui  ★ 06:48, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per Jacqui. --AllyUnion (talk) 07:04, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per Kega - let't not lose this information, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, assuming that the many inaccurate and misspelled entries are sorted out 212.56.101.177 08:17, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
