Lollersk8s[edit]

Mabye there is a list for internet slang, but is not notable enough for an article --nixie 05:24, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Redirect to Lollerskates. --SPUI (talk) 06:29, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Well I'll be. There is a Lollerskates. Oh well, Redirect to it, as per SPUI's vote. --Death phoenix 06:48, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Redirect to Lollerskates. I concur. Zzyzx11 06:50, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Delete, do not redirect. Wikipedia is not a l33t-to-english dictionary. I can think of tons of l33tspeak terms that could theoretically redirect to some article, and no serious person is going to search on any of them. Radiant! 09:55, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)

Redirect. Someone obviously searched for this particular term. Kappa 12:11, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- I doubt that, I'd say someone jokingly inserted this article anyway. We really don't want redirects for sk8s, a10tion, and palm 3. Same thing. Radiant! 12:52, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
  - Lollerskates is inherently internet slang, not at all the same thing as skates or attention. Kappa 14:21, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    - Lots of things are inherently spelled weirdly as internet slang (e.g. haxx0r). I propose that wiktionary gets a category for l33t :). Anyway since the two of us are not likely to agree on this issue, I suppose we should wait and see what the other WP'ers say. Radiant! 14:31, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
Redirect as it seems to be a plausibly searched term. GRider\^talk 20:32, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Redirect to Lollerskates to prevent article recreation. Megan1967 08:36, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Delete and do not redirect. We have an article on Leetspeak. Why not list Lollersk8s there? DaveTheRed 09:49, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Redirect. JamesBurns 10:11, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
