Not!

Article has been transwikied and I really don't see any point for it stick around on Wikipedia. And guys, really fight the urge to be "witty" when voting on this one ok? SeizureDog 06:10, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. This article has quite a bit more content than just a dicdef, so I'd say keep. On the other hand, it may be best to move it to "Postfix not" or something like that. --N Shar 06:16, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Most of that extra content is just examples of usage in popular culture (which if it stays, it could end up getting very cluttered with). --SeizureDog 06:27, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Dicdef that's already been transwikied and there is no need for an article along the lines of "use of NOT! in popular culture." Otto4711 06:38, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep This construction appears to be more than just a dictionary item: it has some cultural and social content. --Goochelaar 11:03, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - I disagree that this article is more than a dicdef. It is a dicdef with some random examples of the word's usage.  That extra content does not make this article more substantive.  - Dmz5  *Edits**Talk* 16:36, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, as described above, a few usage examples does not change a dic def into an encyclopedia article. Nuttah68 17:54, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Already transwikied. Dicdef. Inkpaduta 18:57, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I have to agree with Goochelaar, this was quite a major thing in Borat for example Computerjoe 's talk 21:05, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * keep very frequently used. definitely has important cultural connotations. Niffweed17, Destroyer of Chickens 21:46, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is definitely used massively, especially by children.--Orthologist 23:13, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, holds potential to be expanded beyond a dictionary definition as well as important cultural connotations. Yamaguchi先生 08:08, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The comments above don't really seem to have wikipedia guidelines in mind; "frequently used" is sort of meaningless, wikipedia is not a dictionary. As for this dubious claim that it has important cultural connotations, if there's no attempt to communicate that in the article, then there's not much use for the article.- Dmz5  *Edits**Talk* 23:01, 11 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep, plenty of room for expansion beyond a definiton. --badlydrawnjeff talk 01:51, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is much more than I would expect from a dictionary definition, and the term itself is notable.  (jarbarf) 19:30, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
