'''Speedy keep''' - "juvenile piece of shit" is not a guideline or policy I am currently familar with.

'' The term has widespread pop culture references - mentioned in major Hollywood motion pictures and popular cartoons. Referenced in a Family Guy episode, Mr. Saturday Knight. In the DVD commentary, Seth MacFarlane admits he got the phrase through the FOX censors precisely because they didn't have a clue what it meant.'' --] 20:53, 9 November 2006 (UTC) '''Speedy keep''' - "juvenile piece of shit" is not a guideline or policy I am currently familar with.

WP:WINAD. A definition plus usage examples constitute a lexicon entry, not an encyclopedia entry. Plus, this is a stupid, juvenile piece of shit article that needs deleted like Michael Jackson needs little boys. Guglielmo Clintone 20:50, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Speedy keep - "juvenile piece of shit" is not a guideline or policy I am currently familar with. (I totally stole the rest of this from one of the many many AFDs this article has had - but why come up with something new when someone else has came up with a very good reason to keep). The term has widespread pop culture references - mentioned in major Hollywood motion pictures and popular cartoons. Referenced in a Family Guy episode, Mr. Saturday Knight. In the DVD commentary, Seth MacFarlane admits he got the phrase through the FOX censors precisely because they didn't have a clue what it meant. --Charlesknight 20:53, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

  • This "article" is a definition and a list of usage examples. The only way this could be a clearer transwiki candidate is if it listed its part of speech, pronunciation, and etymology. If it could be usefully expanded, between its two and a half years of existence and previous appearances on AFD, surely it would have been by now. —Cryptic 16:38, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy keep. There's an entry for Donkey punch, of all things. And it really can't be confined to a definition, a lá Santorum. I know the term even outside of pop culture - it's one of those in this category that it seems everybody's heard of. --Grahamdubya 01:34, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

    • You're a foreigner. You probably don't even know what the words "bad faith nomination" mean. You probably use that phrase with everything you disagree with. A bad faith nomination is nominating George W. Bush because you don't like him. I nominated this and gave policy based reasons for doing so because I feel it doesn't belong and violates policy.
