Zenra
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The previous debate was based on a WP:NOT argument stating its apparent dictionary definition nature. Some held a keep - wait and see what we'll find position. The only credible-sounding source that we found was a WaiWai column article from the Mainichi Daily News. However, this column was cancelled (Mainichi Daily News) due to its questionable quality and other issues. Yet again, we face a lack of credible source for the notability argument. I request a deletion for the same argument: "zenra" is merely Japanese for total nudity. The term in Japanese Wikipedia merely redirects to the nudity article over there. As it stands, it is a foreign word dictionary definition that falls under WP:NOT. Tokek (talk) 00:27, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Further sources for verification do not seem to have been forthcoming, so per the previous outcome, Delete (or possibly follow jawiki precident and redirect to nudity). —Quasirandom (talk) 14:44, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. There was ample opportunity provided to validate this article last time and it did not happen, and does not appear it is going to happen.  Wikipedia does not work on a deadline, but on that same token we can't keep non-verifiable articles around indefinitely.  Sorry.  JBsupreme (talk) 16:26, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
