The result of the debate was I was a bit tired and emotional when I came across this AfD, although I was sober as a churchmouse... There are some arguments for keep but they're not very strong. It just doesn't seem encyclopedic to me and it's the sort of listcruft that can grow without bound. If someone wants the text so they can put whatever is useful in Wikisaurus, please contact me and I'll userify it for them. Delete. -- + +Lar: t/c 03:35, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

List of slang terms for drunkenness
Not sure why this long, unsourced list of words is encyclopedic as opposed to a target for vandals who want to add in their own made up slang (which seems to have been going on already: see ). Delete Sdedeo (tips) 22:22, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete I think it could be useful in a way, if there was something along the lines of an explanation where some of the terms come from, but as it stands, I don't see much room for expansion. fuzzy510 23:44, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep: a useful social document, but then I'm blootered. --die Baumfabrik 03:26, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep pretty funny and could be included. &mdash;M e ts501 talk 05:01, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Transwiki verifiable parts and delete, the place for this is wikt:WikiSaurus:drunk. I don't see encyclopedic content in this list. Kusma (討論) 19:43, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to WikiSaurus per Kusma.--El aprendelenguas 21:03, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as alchohollistcruft. Whether I'm smashed, tanked, wasted, or merely tipsy, listcruft must go! KillerChihuahua?!? 22:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unsourced, spam-magnetic listcruft. I've enjoyed tinkering with it now and again, but I wouldn't miss it.  Dei zio  talk 01:28, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, bad idea article. WP is not a dictionary or a thesaurus, and there's no hope of ever sourcing this entire list.  Mango juice talk 19:08, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as unencyclopaedic, Wikipedia is not a dictionary or for articles made up when, or relating to, tired and emotional. Stifle (talk) 15:52, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
