appears to be jargon Wikipedia:NOTADICTIONARY applies. External links only to an empty website NtheP (talk) 12:36, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete in addition to Wikipedia:NOTADICTIONARY, I have searched and found no evidence that this word exists with this meaning. Wikitionary reckons it is a northern British dialect word meaning scuffling or wrestling. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:15, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Scruffles had the following:
http://www.scrufflesmedia.com.au WIFI Hotspots provider within shopping centres.
- so this looks like an attempt at a verb for this organisation (e.g. googling) → AA (talk) — 14:30, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete, going with A3 - but for the purpose, no context and possibly spam (see User:AA's !vote, above) will probably do fine. If all this fails, we're still not a dictionary. If Scruffles wants the Urban Dictionary, he knows where to find it. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 16:20, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
