Talk:Donkey Kong

RFV discussion: May–July 2014
Racist slur. Apparently taken from Urban Dictionary:. Can it meet WT:CFI? Equinox ◑ 22:19, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I also found it here. Ready Steady Yeti (talk) 22:44, 28 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Those Web sites do not meet WT:CFI. Please do read it because it's important and dictates what we allow here in entries. In particular, the ChaCha site is obviously just parroting what someone found on UrbanDictionary. Equinox ◑ 07:29, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Cited as slang for "penis." I also managed to dig up one cite seemingly using it to mean "uncivilized person" or "brute." -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 05:36, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
 * The penis slang is clearly used widespread. We should just keep that one. But I say we should delete the black dude sense. I think that sense is clearly not used enough. I am saying that the page Donkey Kong should be kept but not that sense. Ready Steady Yeti (talk) 05:19, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I found more cites confirming the use of this word as an insult, but it seems to be used against anyone who is boorish, not blacks specifically. — Ungoliant (falai) 03:31, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I think we can close this case as verified, as there are so many citations for both senses. Rædi Stædi Yæti  {- skriv til mig -} 13:47, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Passed. The definition has been rectified by Cloudcuckoolander. — Ungoliant (falai) 20:15, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

Nintendo category

 * I am aware that it is not related by definition, but etymologically related. J3133 (talk) 11:52, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
 * : As you added these category notes: does this entry belong in Category:en:Nintendo? J3133 (talk) 11:59, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
 * E.g., Category:en:Day states, “English terms related to the day (etymologically or semantically).” J3133 (talk) 12:11, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
 * @J3133 I think it's stretching it a bit to put this term under CAT:en:Nintendo given that the definitions have nothing to do with Nintendo, but it's your choice whether to keep it or not. Benwing2 (talk) 06:04, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The category was re-added by CJ-Moki. I do not think it is viable to have separate etymological and semantical categories; see, e.g., (“the distinction between the two types of categories is too fine”). J3133 (talk) 10:58, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
