Curry fetish[edit]

This page refers to a non-notable and slanderous neologism ("a Non-Indian person that has a preference for Indian women") that may be a racist expression amongst Indian Youth. Article is probably better suited for www.urbandictionary.com. Author removed my prod tag, I'm listing the article here. Alphachimp talk 04:37, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

    • Agree with Lost. The editor had genuine intention of contributing to the project and he should be encouraged. — Ambuj Saxena (talk) 12:03, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I'd agree with the consensus that it should probably be deleted as a not-yet-notable neologism, and lack of encyclopedic material in the article (it's just a slang dicdef), but manifestly the fact that an article is about "racist slang" does not mean that it should be deleted, if there is encyclopedic potential. We do have articles on ethnic slurs such as nigger, spic, and kike; wop is a redirect to List of ethnic slurs, and (as a more relevant example) a hatnote dab for yellow fever pointing to Asian fetish. Were it not that Asian fetish makes reference exclusively to East Asians, I would suggest a redirect there. --MCB 20:00, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete just as non-notable. However, it is a variant on a genuine slang (and still nn) term. MLA 12:19, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
