[edit] Flesh

Flesh (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Dictionary definition, but Wiktionary already has a (superior) list of definitions. I see little prospect for expansion. greenrd 10:11, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

    • But flesh is not a synonym for meat. In contemporary British English, at least, one does not normally refer to a person's flesh as "meat", except in sexual or cannibalistic contexts. To do so, outside of those contexts, invites confusion and/or offence.—greenrd 10:27, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep deserves at least a {{wi}} on the page. Any reworking or clarification of the page to explain the context of the word's usage is an editorial decision outside of AfD's scope. Resurgent insurgent 12:22, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as a disambiguation page, which can refer folks to meat, skin, and whatever else people feel is appropriate. FrozenPurpleCube 15:08, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I have expanded the page with a discussion of the significance of "the flesh" as metaphor in Christian theology, and added several literary allusions. Further expansion is possible. - Smerdis of Tlön 15:59, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as redirect This article is a bad idea. Delete its contents and use it as a redirect to skin. DBZROCKS 20:49, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as expanded by Smerdis -- nicely done. bikeable (talk) 00:40, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep I've reworded a bit. jimfbleak 12:28, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
