Wikipedia talk:Deletion policy
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
I don't think all words on word lists should be here. All those words and their definitions should be on Simple English Wiktionary, but many of them are not encyclopedic. Therefore, whether they should be moved there (meaning deleted here) or placed on both should not be dependent on them being on a word list, but should be dependent on whether or not they are encyclopedic. See Wikipedia:Simple talk#Project direction for related discussion. --Cromwellt|talk 01:58, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
- Simple English Wiktionary should not exist. Simple English is not a language. -- Netoholic @ 03:41, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

- Simple English Wiktionary has as much right to exist as Simple English Wikipedia. All other Wikipedias are of separate languages. If simple English is not a language, SEWikipedia should not exist either. For more explanations of its validity, see the simple talk link above and Wikipedia talk:Simple English Wikipedia, where you have still not answered my arguments. I welcome any response, even after all this time. --Cromwellt|talk|contris 23:30, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Immediate deletion
I'm renaming "immediate deletion" into "fast deletion", as the word "fast" is more simpler than the word "immediate". If anyone objects, feel free to comment.--TBCΦtalk? 18:53, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- If it's going to be changed to that, why not just call it speedy deletion so that there's some consistency across wikis? J Di 21:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- On second thought, "Quick deletion" sounds better as "quick" is a BE850 word whereas "fast" and "immediate" are not.--TBCΦtalk? 21:41, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- I don't really like the sound of "Quick deletion", but if it's a BE 850 word, I guess it's the best choice. The category changes I made earlier are going to have to be corrected... J Di 21:45, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- I also think "quick deletion" sounds slightly better. btw the regular deletion time is actually 7 days, not 5, unless you all think 7 is too long, then we can perhaps agree to shorten it to 5 days. Blockinblox - talk 23:27, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
