This page is just a definition for slang. Cockwomble does not appear in the Oxford Dictionary. Arguably meets A7 - Unremarkable content? OXYLYPSE (talk) 14:22, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

- Until 24 April 2020, this was a perfectly cromulent soft redirect to Wiktionary. On that date User:UnfussyKarma replaced the redirect with a WP:DICDEF, after which User:Richardw9 and then a series of IP users added "examples" of various politicians. (Neither UnfussyKarma nor Richardw9 has made any other edits.) Assuming that the vandals and trolls can be repelled, it seems fine to keep the earlier soft redirect.

- I think I created this page as a Wiktionary redirect based on a list of highly-viewed redlinks. Keep as a soft redirect. feminist | freedom isn't free 10:56, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy keep It's not an article, it's a Wiktionary redirect. Someone added some junk to the bottom of the page, which I removed, and now it's a perfectly good soft redirect. Redirects are discussed at WP:RFD, not here. Spicy (talk) 14:39, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the input! I'm fairly new here and just wanted to help out a little. Excuse my ignorance - can probably keep this as a soft redirect in this case? -OXYLYPSE (talk) 15:21, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy keep as redirect -- can't this be closed, since the nom has withdrawn the AfD? --Lockley (talk) 18:33, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
