[edit] Denounce

This dicdef has been transwikied to Wiktionary. Unless someone wants to turn it into a lengthier article, I suggest it be deleted. Denni☯ 22:38, 2005 July 30 (UTC)

• I'd suggest a delete too. Denounce Newswire is a very funny satirical news site, and if it had an article, Denounce could redirect to it, but its Alexa ranking is too bad for it to be worth an article. We wouldn't really have any other uses for this page. --Idont Havaname 23:05, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
• Wikipedia is not a dictionary. As per the Wikipedia:Naming conventions (verbs), verb→noun redirect to denunciation. Uncle G 12:43:56, 2005-07-31 (UTC)
  • Comment: The problem with a redirection is that denunciation is an article based on a less common meaning of denounce. It discusses the announcement of the end of a treaty, not the act of condemning openly as being evil or reprehensible. I think that in this case the best bet is just deletion.
