Slice of life, or "nichijou" in Japanese, refers to events that occur on a daily basis such as getting ready for the day, light chores, enjoying a hobby, or preparing meals. These events differ depending on setting, but above all else are considered to be ordinary, everyday actions that don’t always follow a central plot.

I'm not sure how well this definition works. It talks more about real life "slice of life" than anime "slice of life". I'm not sure how I would use this definition.

I think that this definition works fairly well. Their examples are all of very real life things but the definition itself applies well to anime in my opinion. I like it better than MAL's definition at least.

I like how it says that SOL may have a bigger central plot but it isn't the usual norm.
