This page is a slang term and its etymology. It's already in Wiktionary so don't vote "transwiki". Kevin Rector (talk) 07:50, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, Wiktionary article is perfectly adequate. Average Earthman 08:52, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. This can be expanded into a proper article on bunny boiling, examples of similar obsessive behaviour in reality, examples of the term used in the press, etc. Matthew Platts 14:21, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Yeah, with recipes, too. Mikkalai 21:56, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Already in Wiktionary. Concept can be covered in stalking, erotomania, girlfriend. --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 18:38, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. The term "bunny boiling" should not be used to lump together all sorts of obsessive behavior, that would obviously belong in the Obsessive Behavior article. RickK 20:55, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. nonnotable, nonexpandable. BTW this is a slang term, not a medical term, kinda sorta "psycho". Mikkalai 21:56, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Doesn't *sound* medical, so that means it isn't! Medical terms are always either mutli-syllable mouthfuls (psychosomatic dyssentry), or based on the name of the first researcher/sufferer (Asperger's Syndrome) or Latin (no example comes to mind). It originates from a movie, so possibly fancruft. Master Thief Garrett 22:40, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Looks like it belongs in the dict, and it is. It seems that the problem has been solved to me, so we can del. BigFatDave 02:19, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Add mention to Fatal Attraction and redirect. -- Antaeus Feldspar 15:27, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Fatal Attraction. Now, if'll you'll excuse me, I'm off to delete headache per MTGarrett's logic. FreplySpang (talk) 18:09, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- LOL! No I didn't word it quite right did I! What I meant was that this is a fluff/invented term. Headache is an established term. LOL! Master Thief Garrett 03:00, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
