Sloot

Neologism: "The term first began appearing in online chats in early 2005." -- Scott eiπ + 1 = 0 23:34, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)

  • Speedy Delete. This is a natural candidate for speedy deletion: nonsense from Anonymous User:141.161.125.211 (no other edits) which takes more people's time to delete than it will to invent more of the same. To foist it on Wiktionary simply fills that site with garbage.
  • Keep. This is a valid phrase, I've seen it around and used it myself for nearly a year now.
  • Keep. I am the Anonymous user who entered the word. Sorry, I wasn't registered at that time. I have added other terms that are valid (The Michigan Review), though anonymously as well. I have seen the term sloot from multiple sources since early last year. My original "2005" reference was a typo. There are many people these days who count as sloots, the phenomenon is getting stronger with every new person who signs on to match.com, etc, and there is no other word to describe this. Perhaps I or someone else can beef it up, and/or move it to wiktionary.

  • Delete. A dicdef for a neologism that appeared in a campus newspaper isn't notable. Sloot is no Smoot. --TenOfAllTrades 19:09, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
