The result of the debate was KEEP. I'm not going to action the move suggestions since the present content of the article would be pretty weird-looking under that title by itself. Anyone else can move it if they want to, of course. -Splash^talk 00:07, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bimonthly

This is a dicionary definition. A previous entry, very similar to this one, was delted after being transwikied to wiktionary. This isn't a speedy though because afaict there has never been a deletion discussion about it, the transwiki happened after it was marked with the {{move to wiktionary}} tag.

• Speedy delete. Bureaucracy-vote. It's a very obvious dicdef. / Peter ^Isotalo 11:55, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Maybe redirect to periodical? - SimonP 14:02, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, the discussion of why magazines are published bimonthly is encyclopedic. Kappa 16:25, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Maybe so, but this article isn't that discussion and it should be at Magazine publishing schedules or somewhere like that, unless you want articles for dailys, weeklies, monthlies, three-monthlies, six-monthlies, once-in-a-blue-moonlies, etc. Thryduulf 17:30, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
    • Kappa, you're steadily working your way down to today's breakfast. / Peter ^Isotalo 00:03, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
      • I'm not familiar with that idiom, could you clarify what you mean? Kappa 00:49, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
• Move per Thryduulf. Certainly encyclopedic, but only in context with other schedules. - Mgm|^(talk) 18:34, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep but move per Thryduulf and Mgm. Information is happiest when it is most completely in context! -- BD2412 ^talk 20:26, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Move - per the other movers (for want of a better word). --Celestianpower ^hab 22:08, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Magazine, where the publication schedules are already mentioned and there's plenty of room for expansion. (BTW, periodical is a redirect to magazine) That article could use a good clean-up project. —Wahoofive (talk) 23:12, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
