Move to Wiktionary. This is a legitimate and common slang term used by many gamers to describe exactly the behavior noted. That does not justify a Wikipedia article but it does belong in a dictionary under the verb 'to Bum Rush'. At some point the original meaning of the term (as per much of slang and gamer-speak) was lost in favor of this meaning. Kershner 01:30, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]- I don't think the original meaning of the phrase "Bum's rush (quickly and/or forcibly removed from the premises as if one were a 'bum') has been lost except to those under the age of 16. At any rate, I didn't see much difference between what this article describes and the more succinct definition covered at the Wiktionary article I linked, except that they're applying that definition to the world of video games.

- Keep - this is absolutely not a hoax. It's a legitimate tactic. The term is used in popular culture - see Yo! Bum Rush the Show, an album by Public Enemy. The article needs a cleanup. If it survives AfD I'll clean it up myself. - Richardcavell 05:42, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
transwikidelete as below -- GWO- Delete and do not transwiki. There's already an article there, at bum rush. Please don't treat Wiktionary as a dumping ground. Proto||type 12:00, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This article far exceeds the wiktionary entry in scope and definition, and has various cultural significances. By the way, I've added PE's album to the article's introduction. Colonel Tom 13:41, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, more than a dicdef, but article needs to be cleanup. Bum Rush has been used in pop culture as what Richardcavell said. --Terence Ong 14:15, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, basically just consisting of the same definition written several times and a couple of specific examples. —Mets501talk 16:32, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Not much more than dictdef, and already present at wikt:bum rush. Reference to video games is probably WP:OR. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 17:39, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete could not agree more with Proto. savidan(talk) (e@) 17:40, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete- I would have said transwiki to Wiktionary, but it's already there. Reyk YO! 20:34, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Notable term, but the is essentially a dictionary definition. Ace of Sevens 09:13, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Proto and Peyna; dicdef. Angus McLellan (Talk) 11:32, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, this is a non-notable dicdef. By the way, in my region it's called a "bomb rush". Grandmasterka 04:47, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
