Going Commando

dicdef expanded to essay length. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 05:37, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • No vote yet, but if it stays there should be a mention of Seinfeld. "I'm out there Jerry, and I'm lovin' it." DCEdwards1966 06:08, Jan 7, 2005 (UTC)
  • Weakish keep . This is on the borderline, but I'm glad the author chose to approach the topic as a societal phenomenon/trend rather than just something to snicker at. I could also reasonably imagine this being looked up by someone unfamiliar with the term (more than one can say for a goodly amount of VfD candidates. Let's be on the cautious side and keep this one.

  • Who would think of deleting this? They even got the earliest known mention of the phrase in print, which is just great research. A definite keep. Everyking 10:43, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • NOTE: Earliest mentions in print are standard in dictionaries. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 15:10, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep or possibly move to Wiktionary, definitely don't just delete. Well written, good historical citation. Probably a definition. I agree with Starblind -- above par for the course. RoySmith 18:23, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, this is more than a dicdef and approaches the topic in an encyclopedic manner. — Ливай | ☺ 23:38, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, but move to lowercase title since it's not a proper noun. -Sean Curtin 02:54, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC)
  • It's very well written but it is still only a discussion of meaning, origin and usage. That makes is a very good dictionary entry, not an encyclopedia article. Transwiki to Wiktionary. Rossami (talk) 05:35, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • comment: there's clearly an article to be written about the topic. This should be copied to wiktionary yes, but then someone should write more about it; what proportion of the population has done it? who finds it a turn on? where, if anywhere, is it illegal? etc.etc. a dictdef is at least a good stub.
  • Keep. --Daniel C. Boyer 21:08, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. It's much more than a Wiktionary article. I agree with Everyking on this one. --Deathphoenix 04:12, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, this is by far teh most encyclopedic wrtiting on the subject I've seen. Thryduulf 19:03, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, this is a wonderful article, worthy of inclusion on Wikipedia. GRider\talk 19:21, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep but rename to Going commando. Psychonaut 01:10, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep --BesigedB (talk) 19:43, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Agree it should move to Going commando. Jonathunder 20:05, 2005 Jan 15 (UTC)
