NN neologism. Sir Arthur Williams (talk) 03:56, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have edited it down to fit with what is acceptable it seems. It explains the neologism a bit more than UD. I don't know if it is enough for it to stay though. Do as you will. PS: By a simple Google search, it seems a Mr. Sir Arthur Williams needs a life outside his mother's basement. ;3 Mashew (talk) 05:03, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We do not consider Urban Dictionary entries to constitute reliable sources, needed to establish notability. Sir Arthur Williams (talk) 05:21, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Search results such as [1] obviously aren't usable sources, either. Sir Arthur Williams (talk) 05:28, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete if no better source than Urban Dictionary can be found. JIP | Talk 07:34, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom — Deon^talk
• Delete: Per WP:NEO. Joe Chill (talk) 14:45, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:NEO and nominator. Can always be reintroduced later if evidence of notability becomes available. -- The Anome (talk) 18:07, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. No evidence that this is a notable term; as noted, above, additional sources would be required, and I'm not finding any. The concept of tapping the Dip Canister (as this gesture imitates) might have a place in the Dipping tobacco article, but this term is not a useful redirect - so, delete.

• Delete per original tagger. Fails WP:NEO. E Wing (talk) 03:20, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - WP:NEO; it's possible that it might merit inclusion in the future, but due to WP:CRYSTAL, that will be for us to decide when/if it gets to that point. Cocytus [»talk«] 01:36, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
