[edit] Digestif

A dicdef of an French (and English? Sounds familiar, but doesn't matter since it's a dicdef either way) word. WP:WINAD. Already transwikied. Delete. --Dmcdevit 03:11, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: The article is a dictdef. The deletion guidelines are unambiguous. A definition of "software" would also be a delete. Geogre 18:06, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

• I'd love to see that vfd. Why don't you see if you can persuade the folks voting "keep" on splash conception to change their minds, according to the unambiguous guidelines. Kappa 20:23, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

• Granted, there are people who are encouraging people to totally forget about the deletion guidelines by insisting that they should not apply to whole classes of things, like schools, but that does not change the policy. It only makes those people untrustworthy. Dictionary definitions are out. Dictionaries are not encyclopedias. That is totally unambiguous. However, don't let that stop you from arguing passionately that nothing should be deleted. Geogre 00:04, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

• It would be helpful if you didn't respond to counterexamples with personal attacks and misrepresentations. Kappa 01:37, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

• I am sorry that you feel that those comments applied to you and that you felt that they were attacks. I wholeheartedly encourage people who disagree with deletion existing as a function of the site to try to get the policy changed. I wholeheartedly discourage people who do not get the policy changed to decide to disrupt deliberations by voting without regard to the policies. Geogre 17:12, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

• I am not one of the people who believe that "nothing should be deleted" so your comments are misdirected. Kappa 00:46, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

• Keep per 67.68.64.81. Almafeta 21:16, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, dicdef. Dcarrano 00:35, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep encyclopedic topic. VfD is not cleanup.  Grue  19:02, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand beyond a definition. See apéritif for comparison.  The Steve  06:34, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
