Motherfucker

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

One big OR article of a dictdef. We already have it on Wikitionary.--SeizureDog (talk) 23:50, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - per Martijn Hoekstra. We definitely need cleanup on this article, as none of the sources are key to the article itself, and much of it is original research or non-NPOV.

 * Keep, but it badly needs cleanup. I'm sure there is plenty to be said about it in an ecyclopedic fashion. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 23:57, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:George Carlin. JJL (talk) 01:22, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Keep voters need to mention what this article could include it justify its presence. At present, "origins" is the only section of any possible worth, and we don't keep articles on words just to tell the etymology. Notable words do not equal notable articles.--SeizureDog (talk) 07:22, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * While it's not a perfect article either, I'm thinking something allong the lines of bullshit.Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 11:32, 30 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep or Merge with Fuck, although I would recommend deleting completely the "uses in popular culture section". The origins section is encyclopedic, but that would be reducing the article to a stub. Maybe the content belongs in the Fuck article as a small section of its own.

 * I could support a merge, since the word is simply an extention of "fuck".--SeizureDog 23:12, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep as obviously notable; the worse word you can say in English, with lots of verifiable sources about its nuances beyond a dicdef. A serious attempt can be made to find WP:RS. Bearian 17:54, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Piss, Cocksucker, and Tits (3 of the 7 "big" dirty words) don't have articles and I know for sure cocksucker was one that was transwikified. Also, if it's so obvious, can you provide an example RS on the subject?--SeizureDog 23:12, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep this motherfucker. RFerreira 08:13, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - WP:IAR if necessary. But Federal Communications Commission v. Pacifica Foundation makes this word highly notable in the U.S. at least. (sdsds - talk) 06:24, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
