[edit] Multi

Wiktionary had a better article than this even at the time that this article was originally written. The only growth that this article saw in 10 months was some etymological rubbish about the word "polio". Uncle G 17:07, 2005 Mar 17 (UTC)

  • Keep I've rewritten article to deal with another important topic and it's no longer a dictdef. Grue 18:25, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • An article about something called a "multi" rather than about the prefix/word. I'm satisfied. ☺ Uncle G 22:41, 2005 Mar 17 (UTC)
  • Keep nice new article. Kappa 20:35, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. I seem to recall this also being called Multiplaying so I added a redirect there. Radiant_* 09:43, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Well done Grue for the changes. Capitalistroadster 10:02, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge and Redirect to MMORPG. There is not a single article in the article namespace that references this meaning of the word "multi". In fact, the only artcle that links here is Poly through a redirect on multi- as the Latin equivalent of Poly as a Greek prefix. While Grue's attempt to salvage a vfd candidate is commendable, there's nothing that that can't go into the MMOPRG article. Kevin Rector 19:44, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Either Keep under different name or Merge with MMORPG. "Multi" might not link there yet, but that might come - and this is a very specific use of the word. -- AlexR 23:26, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • After Kevin's complaint I added several links to that article in related topics, so it is not out of context now. Another user expanded the article and now it is big enough to not be merged. Grue 06:35, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
