• Delete is it just me, or is the article incoherent? Josh Parris#: 01:36, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

  Comment - It's not just you. -GTBacchus^(talk) 01:46, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

• So if someone is a paragon, he's a standard of comparison, and that comes from this word in Italian. Huh; I did not know that. Delete, per nom Tom Harrison ^(talk) 02:47, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand, if more information on the practice can be found. It's actually a relevant discussion in aesthetics as that field pertains to art, though there is not enough info here.--Thephotoman 03:09, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand, or if thats not possible merge with Italian renaissance. Jcuk 22:29, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - I couldn't make sense of it at first, or I wouldn't have nominated it. Now it's cleaned up a bit. Probably plenty of room for expansion. Other noted paragones? Techniques used? -GTBacchus^(talk) 23:43, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
• Move seems more wiktionary-ish to me. --Pboyd04 03:06, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, I think. It can't go into Wiktionary, which (I think) only would include English words or foreign words in common use. It could go into an Italian Wiktionary. But if it's real literary device -- the old-timey equivilant of "Death Metal RULZ! And all other music SUCKS!", I guess -- then keep it. Herostratus 20:53, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
