Revision as of 00:01, 9 March 2008

It has been suggested that the content of the page this talk page accompanies should not be a separate article on the wiki.

  • Please discuss below whether the content of the page should have its own article. Remember to consider ways the content could be brought up to the wiki's standards before making this determination.

If it is decided that the content should not have its own article, then the following additional issues need to be addressed:

  • Whether to merge the content with another page or remove it entirely.
  • Whether to redirect the leftover page or delete it outright.
 

Discussion

Two of these, "'stache" and "staysh", are truncations heard in common parlance. I don't think they apply to the scope of the page. - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 04:20, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Truncations of common parlance is what this article here is about. MHarrington 04:36, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
But when the truncatons in question are common parlance, it's not notable. It's when the abbreviations are unique that we note them. - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 04:39, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
If these are the only examples, this phenomenon is not notable, in my opinion. Reasons are along the lines of Qermaqs. -DAGRON 20:18, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Are words that eliminate the G from the suffix -ing (E.G. Friggin') also count? Does some other slang terms count? The scope of this article is way too broad and non-specific. It's just not unique enough for Homestar Runner. Delete. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 20:52, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
