This is a dictionary definition, and an unnecessarily complicated one. "There are two definitions" is followed by "means below zero". Should just be redirected to Subzero or just deleted outright. Primefac (talk) 01:33, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The nominator seems correct. This is a dictionary word rather than an encyclopedia entry. Rosario (talk) 02:52, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as superfluous to subzero and the already existing Wiktionary entry.—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 07:40, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Multiple dictionary definitions add up to a slightly longer dictionary definition, not an encyclopedia article, and Wikipedia policy is that Wikipedia is not a dictionary (WP:NOT#DICTIONARY). Any search for the term will find it in the existing disambiguation page, so keeping the redirect adds no value. Bakazaka (talk) 20:41, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
