Wikpedia is not a usage or slang guide. Lists of dictionary definitions are not appropriate for Wikipedia, but are appropriate for Wiktionary. Per common practice, this page is now transwikied to wikt:Transwiki:List of surfing terms and is ready to be deleted. Dmcdevit·t 23:51, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- STRONG keep. This is a 100% example of a glossary for a very specific area of expertise, surfing. The nominator, by calling it "slang guide" pushes a wrong POV. This terminology definitions is highly useful for non-experts.
- I would recommend reading Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This quite plainly isn't the sort of thing that needs to be here, and has already been kicked over to the Wiktionary, where it should be. EVula 17:46, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
