The result was Redirect to sack as Dhartung suggested. The term 'sacked' is almost as ambiguous as the term 'sack'. The etymological discussion in the present article is interesting, but wikipedia is not a dictionary and is not for discussion of etymology. I see nothing worth saving in the original article. - Richard Cavell (talk) 01:13, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Possible candidate to be moved over to Wiktionary, or maybe just needs to get zapped. I leave it up to the community on this one, thus nominating it for deletion. SchuminWeb (Talk) 17:23, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the article has quite a bit on the origins of the term making it more than just a dictdef. - Icewedge (talk) 17:38, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to sack, which already provides disambiguation to numerous topics (e.g. the sacking of a city). There are a variety of terms (fired, pink-slipped, etc.) and all have rather obvious derivations, best dealt with at Wiktionary or briefly within termination of employment or firing. --Dhartung | Talk 05:31, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
