- Delete. It's kind of an essay trying to be a dictionary definition or maybe original lexicographical research. Either way, it's not appropriate for Wikipedia. Maybe Wiktionary? Cnilep (talk) 02:34, 27 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or transwikify the dictionary definition (a slang term) to Wiktionary. The list of "references" (so called - not references for the article content) points to us having a valid article on the Zong massacre (on a slave ship). It might be possible to add a note to that article on the content of this one, but I would not encourage more than one sentence. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:24, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with the Zong massacre article. It's worth a footnote at least.--Auric talk 01:28, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete and oppose merge. This is a dictionary definition. As for a merge, it's relationship to the Zong massacre is speculative and is not supported by reliable sources; urbandictionary.com is not a reliable source. I'll also add that the dicitonary definition as claimed in the article not supported by the urbandictionary.com reference supplied. -- Whpq (talk) 16:51, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
