[edit] Ecstatic
dictionary def --Bachrach44 01:06, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Wiktionary. Or is that not allowed? RabidMonkeysEatGrass 01:48, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- We have a thing called Transwiki which moves it to another Wiki. However, Wiktionary is way ahead of us: wikt:Ecstatic and its link to wikt:Ecstasy do the job just fine already. -Splashtalk 04:07, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Possibly a redirect to somewhere is appropriate, and I'd support that. I think there is little chance of encyclopedic expansion of this article on its own beyond the dicdef it is at present. So redirect on condition of a decent target, else delete dicdef. -Splashtalk 04:07, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Transwikify to wiktionary. Zordrac (talk) Wishy Washy Darwikinian Eventualist 05:00, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I strongly oppose either redirecting or Transwikying this article. The point is that Wikipedia is strictly an encyclopedia, so there's no need for listing dictionary articles here (that's why we have Wiktionary) and then bothering with redirecting them. If we keep this practice, sooner or later all of Wiktionary would have to be contained in Wikipedia. Also, I doubt Transwikying this article is even possible since there's already [a more complete] article in Wiktionary. So I strongly recommend deleting this article.

- Anything not already in wiktionary should be transwikified, but otherwise delete. worthawholebean talkcontribs 05:58, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- No Manual Redirects - Wikipedia should have an automatic system function to provide a link to the article in Wikitionary when it is available.-- --(U | T | C) 06:02, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as per above. Bryanmckay 06:21, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, dicdef Wiktionary already has. Ewok Slayer is correct. Any empty article offers a link to wiktionary for that term. Redirecting to Wiktionary in any other form is undesireable and will lead to Wikipedia turning into a dictionary. - Mgm|(talk) 16:47, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Per our Wikipedia:Naming conventions (adjectives), redirect to Ecstasy. Uncle G 18:50, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect per Uncle G Kappa 04:36, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, already covered in Wiktionary. 143.239.138.129 12:40, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
