Non-existent expression. Protologism or hoax, I believe Xyzzyplugh 00:27, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as probable hoax. No ghits on "Metmore, GE" --DarkAudit 01:13, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Hoax. Some sort of jokes going on tonightyesterday among three interrelated new users (also responsible for the deleted Crakon). Yozenagon (talk ·contribs), Prord (talk ·contribs) and I'm a lentil (talk ·contribs). -- Fan-1967 01:18, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment One can't help but admire such an impressive display of Sock puppetry. Note that some of them have signed the wrong names to their comments. --Xyzzyplugh 02:43, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete, hoax, even though it's funny to see somebody expend so much effort sockpuppeting without the slightest chance of success. And let's ban these puppets, too. -David Schaich 02:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I thought the dryer kept eating all those socks, but hey, here they are! Opabinia regalis 03:01, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment For the record, a few Keep votes by a few of the sockpuppets were removed in the course of reverting the vandalism. In addition, one of the sockpuppets signed the wrong name to one of his keep votes above. Not that this makes any difference... --Xyzzyplugh 03:07, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Delete clear hoax. Gwernol 03:08, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Looks like the new version (with different capitalization) is from yet another new sock, Planned Jynex (talk ·contribs). -- Fan-1967 03:19, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
... and the third and fourth are from Scartchov (talk ·contribs), a confirmed vandal from before today. Fan-1967 03:30, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Deleteboth all three six articles, and all the sockpuppets who are so keen on keeping them. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 03:22, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep i see nothing wrong.Spively 03:37, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment It appears that this is the same person responsible for a number of vandalisms on 9 July to Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp. Both Scartchov (talk ·contribs) and Spively (talk ·contribs) were accounts used then. Fan-1967 03:41, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I have been a good contributor since June 2004. I have heard this term and thinks its notable, but maybe its just where I live its used. Its locally popular, although I agree Metmore doesn't exist. Probably not notable in other regions.Mr. Starchy 03:43, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: ...and yet the first edit in your contributions list is dated July 6, and every edit is related to lentils or this usage. Hmm... —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 03:57, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Agree with most of what's above reguarding delete, its a protologism(an unaccepted neologism in a region) and a bit of a hoax. The neologism comes out of the fact that apparently many of these 'lentil's happen to be in somewhere called "Metmore, GE", (GE is likely Georgia, (one of them) but I can't find a city or town either way) Also, I state that any article of similar terminology which the sockpuppets create should to be deleted as well, they're all the same page anyways.

Delete Neologism. Stop using sock puppets! --Xrblsnggt 04:03, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, born and raised in Alabama, and I heard every slur you could imagine in the South. 433 unique Ghits, absolutely none of which seem to have anything to do with this definition. Even if it's "legit," it's certainly a neologism. -- H·G (words/works) 04:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Laugh This sockpuppetry is hilarious! JianLi 04:59, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
