Dictdef of a Russian language slang term. RickK 06:18, Aug 12, 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep. This was a very commonly used term in Soviet era and I could this eventually being a good article. Andris 12:20, Aug 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge: Honestly, I think this could be great information, but I'd love to see it in an article on the Soviet black market, the Russian "mafia" (in Russia...the concept of 'mafia' there is not what it is anywhere else), or even Soviet economics. As a stand-alone, I feel like we're losing good informationg by scattering it. Andris, can you think of a larger concept where this information can operate in a context of a larger discussion?

  • Keep. Wile E. Heresiarch 15:14, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect. I agree with Geogre. This seems like it would be more appropriate in an entry for more of a "big picture" topic. If possible, I would merge and redirect. If there is no corresponding article and no one wishes to create one, I have to vote delete. Skyler 02:20, Aug 13, 2004 (UTC)
  • Randomly, BLAT is also the name of an email utility. http://www.blat.net/ Has no real bearing on this article... SarekOfVulcan 04:51, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

"Blat" is also a term for a horrendous note on a brass instrument (including [saxophones]) usually produced by blowing too hard. Not sure if there's a good place for it, but there you have it. --Duneflower, resident weirdo 11:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable reference for this meaning? see Wikipedia:Attribution and wikipedia:Reliable sources. Also, it seems that this meaning is not for encyclpedia (wikipedia), but for wiktionary. `'юзырь:mikka 15:05, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Blat (software)" was deleted[edit]

The link "Blat (software)" is now effectively a broken link - that article was deleted.
