I would like to understand why I have been blocked (and moreso why I am unable to create an account to email Chuck Entz (talk • contribs) to dispute this claim directly). I am in the belief that by editing the page leva that I was reported for adding innapropriate information. It is also to my understanding that slang and vernacular terminology are appropriate for wiktionary articles in so long as they are specified as (slang). The particular word being referenced leva is a common vernacular and slang term used in Chicano-American English and Suburban Vernacular English and has an extent of use across the entire Southern California region (the same region referenced in "Handbook of the International Phonetic Association: A Guide to the Use of the International Phonetic Alphabet" as the chosen variety to represent American English in the representational "illustration"). Given that regional definitions are common on wiktionary (see y'all) and slang is also common (see Benjamin) so long as it is specified and accurate, I see no issue to take with my edits to the article.

Moreover I hate to reference Urban Dictionary as a source but given that we are referring to slang I hope it is appropriate.
