This has been repeatedly recreated and deleted in the past for being a dictionary definition. In its current state, it's still a dictionary definition. I suggest that it be deleted (or maybe it could be merged with Hindi profanity). Spicy (talk) 23:58, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Last AfD happened in 2005, and that's over 16 years. That's to say G4 is not the best option here. I however agree that this should be merged with Hindi profanity. Best, ─ The Aafī   (talk)  16:31, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah, thanks. The nom said "repeatedly recreated and deleted" though. Sorry I did not pay enough attention to see that wasn't quite right. Still per WP:DICT I will leave my !vote as delete. Its essentially a dictionary definition and that goes on Wiktionary. I suppose a merge to Hindi profanity makes some kind of sense but I am not sure what I think of that page either. Should we have pages for profanity for all languages? Isn't Wiktionary a more appropriate project for these? But that one is not at AfD! :) Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 20:42, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Sirfurboy, My two cents is, this topic fo-shizz has much more than just being a dictionary definition. It's in its initial stub form, hence, might look like nothing more than a definition, but it can be expanded with inclusion of its other cultural significance. Thanks.

 * Thanks. You may be right, and I am open to being persuaded, but I think we need some evidence of significance. It doesn't have to be in the article (per WP:NEXIST), but there should be some secondary sources about the word, its usage or its cultural significance. Can we find any? Note, simple usage of the word does not count. It needs to be something like an article that discusses the history, cultural significance etc. of the word. I have looked with some searches and not found any, but I don't know this language and it is entirely possible there are articles in Hindi about this (or, indeed, that I missed something because the word does show up in a lot of non notable ways and these may be hiding notable stuff).
 * But it is not enough to say that sources may exist. The page has been recreated after a previous deletion, and although that deletion was a long time ago, it remains the case that the onus is on the creator or those wanting to keep the article to show that such sources exist somewhere. If no such sources can be shown to exist, I would be content with a soft delete (treated as an expired prod) or a redirect to Hindi profanity that preserves page history.

 * Merge to Hindi profanity to help bring it up to the level of other language profanity pages. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 03:44, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge to Hindi profanity - or delete, but definitely shouldn't keep a dictionary entry. When an article cites urban dictionary, you really know it doesn't belong. PopoDameron (talk) 01:36, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
