 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it.

The result of the debate was delete all. —Cleared as filed. 17:37, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

The %27%27C%27%27 word and related articles linked below
See also the related redirects %27%27C%27%27 word, C word. By the way, I must apologize that I can't get the links to work correctly. They work here. I would appreciate it if someone can fix the links. In the meantime, this redirect will still take you to the page in question. ''links now repaired. please note that format required to make them work is highly non-standard.''

Foogol created this "disambiguation" page and a string of redirect pages. Nothing links to them but more importantly, I can find no evidence that anything ever will link to them. This is in my opinion a thinly veiled attempt to create dictionary definitions for a series of off-color euphemisms. Several of them have already been speedy-deleted. Foogol recreated them rather than contesting the deletions. I personally think that they are patently obvious deletes but couldn't find a specific speedy deletion criterion which applied. (Note: I had originally made this as a bulk nomination but have decided to move most of the others to Redirects for deletion.)  Rossami (talk) 00:31, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. We have n word as a redirect to nigger and f word as a redirect to fuck, so should have these redirects as well. Robot32 01:03, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete all of these on the basis of WP:NOT. Crotalus horridus (TALK ● CONTRIBS) 02:31, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep all, redirects are cheap.Gateman1997 02:49, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * There are times when redirects should be deleted (I seem to recall a kerfuffle involving you over a redirect once). Those times are described at Redirects for deletion, where this should have been made (and for all I know, has been). fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 03:19, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * What, is Redirects for deletion broken? fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 03:19, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all: does not seem encyclopædic to me at all.—Stombs 04:58, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Slang words using one letter -- Astrokey44 |talk 06:50, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Astrokey44. Blackcats 07:26, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all. While there are plenty of references available to show that "the N word" has historically referred to "nigger," and "the F word" has always unequivocally been in reference to "fuck," "the D word" is "damnation"?  These are just arbitrary one-letter acronymizations of profane words.  This is problematic because society does not actually use any of these phrases, and so to have them on Wikipedia is misleading and non-representational of, well, reality.  Rather unhealthy for an aspiring reliable reference, eh? (Oh, and btw, if "The C word" is "cunt," "cock," and "crap," none of them is the definitive "C word," is it?)

 * Keep as per gateman. 205.188.116.201 20:35, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete the lot of them. Scoo 11:14, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep all. 64.12.116.195 16:42, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Most of them I believe the B word and the A word is notable as they are definitive with the former being a lot more notable. SandBoxer 06:41, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
 * The D word (i.e. delete). But yes it should be Redirects not Articles for deletion Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 17:14, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all. Pointless. OwenBlacker 19:02, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all I agree, pointless, not notable. Seems more like they were created to bother people as they aren't defended by the creator. Lotusduck 07:31, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment - Many of these redirects were deleted as a consequence of the discussion at WP:RFD. A few were not deleted.  Ξxtreme Unction |yakkity yak 21:31, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all the ones not yet deleted. Excessive and pointless. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 17:26, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
