Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Qapla'

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was Merge. I've merged it into Klingon language, after a fashion. Per User:Cryptic, I've discounting the "transwiki" votes (I found the arguments against Cryptic's comment unconvincing); many of them referred to redirecting or merging after transwikiing, in any case. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 17:21, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Qapla'

Dicdef of a fictional language. Perhaps transwiki to Wiktionary? --202.156.6.54 11:59, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

• Transwiki, but to Klingon_language. Nazgjunk - - Signing is ^{for Whimps} 14:34, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. The Klingon language notes the existance of canon and fan-created words. There are plenty of sites that list and translate specific words in Klingon and Wikipedia is not one of those sites. Jtmichcock 14:41, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Granted every word shouldn't have an article but this is one used alot on Trek and even in everday speech by some trekkies. I think there will be those that come across this reference and look to the 'pedia to see what it means. Matthew Mattic 15:38, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiki to Wiktionary, but make sure the word is Merged within Klingon Language as well. Karmafist 16:25, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiki to Wiktionary and Merge into Klingon language as per Karmafist. --BorgQueen 16:32, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiki and Redirect. --Maru (talk) Contribs 17:58, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiki to Wiktionary, and redirect the current article to Klingon language. — JIP | Talk 18:19, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiki, then merge and redirect to Klingon language per Karmafirst. - Mgm|^(talk) 21:22, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
• Comment/Abstain. Although a dictdef, this is the most well known and notable word of the Klingon 'language'. Saberwyn 03:36, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to Klingon language. Do not transwiki; per wikt:WS:CFI Wiktionary does not include Klingon words. —Cryptic (talk) 04:09, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
• We have a Klingon Wikipedia, so I don't see why we can't have a Klingon wiktionary. Besides, Wiktionary also includes translations of English words, so this could be added to "success". - Mgm|^(talk) 09:24, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
• Another possibility: we could make the article into a disambiguation page. There exists a band named Qapla' that I have heard of and there may be other things. Matthew Mattic 10:15, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
