[edit] Whisper number
Delete or transwiki to Wiktionary. At the moment the article is at best a dicdef and at worst an advertisement for whispernumber.com. When I placed the speedy tag on it the whispernumber.com's were linked.-- Syrthiss 16:48, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Transwiki and delete. Dicdef. However, first graf here is a copyvio [1] and all references to whispernumber.com in the text should be deleted. | Klaw ¡digame! 16:54, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

- This is not a dictionary article about a phrase. It is a stub encyclopaedia article about whisper numbers. We don't delete stubs where there is potential for expansion, as research reveals to be the case here. The solution to the fact that the article focussed solely upon a single web site is not to delete it. Keep. Uncle G 19:02, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'm willing to change my vote to Keep per the article's current form...tho I removed the getwhispers.com site as afaict it has nothing to do with actual whisper numbers. It looked like it was a collection of links. I didn't delve incredibly deeply as I became annoyed with the 5 blocked popups in the first 10 seconds. --Syrthiss 19:07, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and well done to whoever did the rewrite. It is now a useful article. Capitalistroadster 19:50, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
