Talk:Detente, bala

RFD discussion: February–April 2016
Seems more like a slogan than a dictionarial phrase. Also, it should be lowercase, if it remains. --Sit comfy (talk) 10:31, 27 February 2016 (UTC)


 * I don’t see the harm in documenting slogans on the project. That said, the definition is silly and the title should be detente balla. -- Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 12:38, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Depends. Slogans often only have a literal meaning. Then it's a case of only including entries for their usage notes and not their meanings. Imagine something like to mean  and then having under usage notes 'slogan of XYZ'. This seems to be the case here where all the justification is in the etymology and the definition is just stop, bullet. But I'm not certain either.

 * It’s an incantation, not a slogan. Soldiers would write the incantation on a slip of paper and keep it on his uniform. By commanding the bullet to stop, the soldier hoped he would not be shot. —Stephen (Talk) 11:32, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
