  • Keep I would say this is an article, not a dictionary definition. Clearly a term with widespread historical use. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 17:44, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep. This article already has more than mere dictionary content, and it doesn't yet have any discussion of what may be this notable expression's most prominent literary occurrence, in Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, a use which has provoked extensive commentary, samples of which can be seen at GBooks[https://www.google.com/search?q=%22queer+street%22+jekyll&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=OsJ&tbo=d&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&source=lnms&tbm=bks&sa=X&ei=uWnKUIeMGaTliQKxjoHIBw&ved=0CA0Q_AUoAA&biw=1680&bih=930] and GScholar[http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=%22queer+street%22+jekyll&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp=]. --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:57, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
