I've added this here not because the entry begins with a capital letter, but do we include ice-cream flavours ? Seems endless. I don't see banana walnut but I do see we have rocky road (perhaps because it first refers to a type of chocolate bar ?) ... Leasnam (talk) 03:55, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Part of the reason I added it is because unless you're familiar with the ice cream flavour, you're probably thinking of an actual tiger's tail. I capitalized it because I'm using to seeing article titles in Wikipedia that way. If this entry is suitable here, I'm absolutely fine with it being moved to tiger tail.

- The definition simply states "Ice cream flavor" . Can you please add some additional information describing the flavour (chocolate, fruity, striped, etc.) ? Leasnam (talk) 04:02, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- The quotations give some description and I was trying to avoid being repetitive. Would "Ice cream flavour, orange-coloured with stripes of black licorice" work? Clovermoss (talk) 04:12, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- That, or perhaps "an orange-flavoured ice cream with black licorice swirl" ? Leasnam (talk) 04:23, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Once updated I'll move it to tiger tail until we get this resolved :) Leasnam (talk) 04:24, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- I like your description better. Do you want to add it since you came up with it? Also, once the page is moved, is there still going to be a discussion here about whether or not the entry will be deleted? Clovermoss (talk) 04:29, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Ok, I can add it and move it. I would appreciate additional input from others on this if possible, yes. Leasnam (talk) 04:30, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- Updated and Moved. The term is certainly idiomatic, no question there. Just wondering if it's proper Dictionary Material. Leasnam (talk) 04:37, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

- Keep if there is generic use: it's not an obvious sum of parts like rum and raisin or cherry vanilla, but one of the non-obvious ones like rocky road, blue moon, Superman ice-cream. (However, trademarks from a single manufacturer should not be included unless they are hugely well known like kleenex.) It does seem generic and I've added a link to Wikipedia's article.

- Ok, Thanks Equinox. I withdraw my RFD for this term. Leasnam (talk) 14:46, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
