Yak shaving
Neologism. I don't see this as an encyclopedic topic, and the article's current contents are unencyclopedic in either case. Delete or move to Wiktionary. - Mike Rosoft 18:39, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

Fine. Shall I re-submit to Wiktionary or will/can it be moved there? --Seclar 22:40, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Dare I say keep? "Yak shaving" -wiki gets 15k Google hits, it appears that the terms beginnings have indeed moved into regular, albeit not widespread, jargon.  Either that or merge with Ren * Stimpy, where I believe this term is coined from. --badlydrawnjeff 14:36, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to wiktionary. &mdash; RJH 16:45, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I've heard people use this term (or, the alternate composition, shaving a yak, which should redirect to here).  Wikipedia is one of the places I go to figure out what some strange phrase I've heard means, it's great for stuff like that.  --RoySmith 01:35, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
