Article cites no sources. Tagged with verify tag since July. Not in compliance with WP:V or WP:NOR. Dean Wormer 03:31, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep Not only is it a real thing, it's also sourceable: [1], [2], [3], [4]. Wl219 04:47, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Very notable, and sourced as shown. Speaking as a part Guido, I object to deletion of myself. • Lawrence Cohen 05:58, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Part of the culture of the NE US, and with the sources above, verifiable. Acroterion (talk) 19:28, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Clearly notable. Article needs better sourcing, more encyclopedic tone, and should follow any guidelines we have for ethnic slurs. Wikidemo 04:16, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as notable, even though it's offensive. WP is for adults, not to be censored for randomly. Sourceable per Wl219. Bearian 01:20, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Please assume good faith; I don't think the nominator wanted to delete the article because it is offensive or because he wants to censor Wikipedia. He cited verifiability and original research concerns. Melsaran (talk) 15:00, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, can apparently be sourced (see Wl219's comment), may need some purging though (contains a lot of OR). Melsaran (talk) 15:00, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
