WP:NOTDICTIONARY, just picked up some speculative news items and shape them into a wiki article.. The sources included are not broad coverage of the term. Just trivial mentions in some statement by people and the author of the article hugely misinterpreted the sources to write the article. Rahat (Message) 14:04, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

• Keep: Invalid argument. The usage of the term as a slur has been documented for a long time. BengaliHindu (talk) 14:50, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

• Keep. It's an ugly, ESL-written article, but the topic is a notable slur. Pax 03:03, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
• Keep - While Misplaced Pages is not a dictionary, this topic appears to be notable. It is a well-sourced article that demonstrates notability/significant coverage. I see potential for expansion especially on the "impact" section and it's not like the article consists merely of dicdef. — kikichugirl  03:42, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
