Michael Jackson? This can't pass our CFI, surely? --Keene 17:11, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Delete this sense, but perhaps allow something like "A diminutive name for people with the surname of Jackson", and follow with a few examples. There are others besides Whacko Jacko.--Dmol 21:26, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Could've had a better definition, but I say Delete. --MacReporter 04:28, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
I have added a proper definition and changed the rfv to rfv-sense.--Dmol 13:12, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, Dmol. Delete sense.—msh210℠ 18:28, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- Deleted Michael Jackson sense; changed other sense to the following:
I'm not sure how this passed RFD in the past, but retaining the entry causes even good editors to mistakenly re-enter spammy stuff. We shouldn't have this entry as anything other than "a nickname." But perhaps it would be better not to have it at all, soft-linking 'pedia instead? --Connel MacKenzie 03:21, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
- OK, so it seems it didn't actually pass in the past. It is a nickname of Jack and only by extension, a nickname of Jackson. My vote on this is to delete with a deletion comment soft-linking to Wikipedia. --Connel MacKenzie 03:24, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Sense - Enemy. A new user has added a bunch of new definitions all using Wikipedia "Digger Slang" as supporting article, but this article is also up for deletion as original research.--Dmol 22:47, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
- RFV failed, sense removed. —RuakhTALK 16:03, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
