Wikipedia is not a dictionary of slang. The lead section is entirely dictionary content -- usage, definition, and history. The second section is a pseudo-disambiguation page that discusses two completely unrelated meanings of the word "slag". The entire article is unreferenced. There is nothing here worth keeping in an encyclopedia. Powers ^T 12:24, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This just doesn't deserve an article to itself. It's already well covered on Wiktionary, so why do we need an article that doesn't come close to being as accurate? Tokyogirl79 (talk) 18:43, 22 August 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]

Delete. Another dictdef article on a polysemic word. This one isn't even sourced, not that it would matter much given its current contents. FuFoFuEd (talk) 23:51, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Slut, the two are pretty much synonymous. Giant Snowman 12:27, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
