[edit] Self call

Incorrectly tagged as a speedy. This term is a valid one, though I don't think it's used as it is here. I still say delete because the term described here isn't consistent to what I know of the term, and even if it is, it's only a dicdef at most. --Deathphoenix 19:39, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, neologism at best. --Andy Saunders 19:46, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Slang limited to a certain georgraph, while irrelevant to those who do not live in the region in which it is used, is still relevant to those who do know about it. Isn't the whole purpose of Wikipedia to educate others about things they do not know? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.41.15.46 (talk • contribs)
    • Comment: Wikipedia is not a slang and idiom guide (WP:NOT). --Andy Saunders 21:05, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. If this is not a slang or idiom guide, then why is a page like creampie accepted by Wikipedia? Stop being hypocrites. --Beal007 21:58, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
Because "creampie" has gained widespread acceptance and is verifiable. Self-call, on the other hand, has not. --Andy Saunders 22:56, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
