Delete - I thought the redirect was fine but I guess I'm the minority, So going to be a sheep and follow the rest. –Davey2010^Talk 10:24, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. This sort of thing belongs in Wiktionary, and I don't see how expanding the Wikipedia entry could add any non-dictionary encyclopedic value. Highway 89 (talk) 19:47, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This was created as a definition, and while the specific text has changed somewhat, it has never been anything but a definition or a redirect to Man. The redirect doesn't strike me a useful, though; the parenthetical disambiguation (noun slang) makes this clearly dictionary content, which is not appropriate for Wikipedia.
