Deletion debate
editThe following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
There's already Category:Greetings, which should probably be used. -- Prince Kassad 22:23, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

< Prince_Kassad> only a single entry < Prince_Kassad> rfd? < mutante> hmm, is there some other category with different spelling < mutante> Category:Greetings? < mutante> yes, move that one into Category:Greetings and delete Category:English greetings < mutante> categories on en. dont have "English" in their names < Prince_Kassad> hmm < Prince_Kassad> added to rfdo. < mutante> changed the entry, now its empty < mutante> just copy/paste the last lines into the RFD ? < mutante> would even just delete it, its an empty category, and it can be recreated so quick, so wth < mutante> clearly we dont have the "English" in category names anyways < mutante> and the correct category exists and isnt small < mutante> and after all "Empty Category" is even in the "Reason for deletion" drop-down

- This related to WT:RFM#Category:Greetings where I opposed the move to Category:English greetings. Ergo, delete, it's a topic, so it should be a topical category, not a lexical one. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:27, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
¶ Just found this category today. Why not delete it now? 75.142.190.21 15:51, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
Deleted. --Mglovesfun (talk) 16:07, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
- For context, if anyone stumbles across the above conversation over a decade later: the reasoning originally given for this category's deletion no longer applies.
