Take the piss out

Wiktionary already has an independently grown Wiktionary:take the piss. I don't see what could be written about the acts of taking the piss or taking the Mickey (rather than about the phrase) that wouldn't be more than a simple redirect to ridicule, which itself points to Wiktionary in any case.

• Delete. Dicdef of slang, not encyclopedic. The phrase would be 'take the piss out of' anyway. Average Earthman 20:30, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, pisscruft. Um, I mean unneeded reexplanation of slang. Okay, I just wanted to say "pisscruft". But if anyone makes an article called "pisscruft" I'll vote to delete that too. -- Infrogmation 04:23, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
