[edit] Chicken (term of speech)

• del Dicdef. The article looks long because it puts together two totally different words: "chicken" and "chickenshit" (both dicefs) and gives ample quotations. `'mikka (t) 23:49, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• The article is another mis-placed dictionary article containing the definition of a word and some supporting quotations showing the word in use in sentences. This article is in the wrong project. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. The place for these and any similar quotations is beneath meaning #4 of wikt:chicken#English and meaning #1 of wikt:chickenshit#English, which are in need of quotations. Delete.

• Perhaps merge a sentence or two into Chicken, noting the relationship between the term and the animal's nature. But that's a generous way of handing it. HumbleGod 01:45, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
