Talk:spelling Nazi

RFD closure

Discussion moved from User talk:Sgconlaw.

The English entry spelling Nazi was nominated to RFD on 26 August 2017. You deleted the entry on 2 September 2017. Please undelete the entry and let the discussion proceed as per the usual RFD process. The other entry spelling nazi was Dutch, not English, and its result cannot be directly applied to an English entry. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:22, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

OK, done. Sorry about that; didn't notice the Dutch part. — SGconlaw (talk) 13:12, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

spelling Nazi

English entry defined as "Someone who is intolerant of others’ spelling mistakes." Shall this be deleted as sum of parts? I am not voting delete yet. --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:42, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

Already being discussed above under 'spelling nazi' (uncapitalised). Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 22:42, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

The above discussion (currently at #spelling nazi) is for a Dutch entry. Admittedly, some of the may be similar. --Dan Polansky (talk) 06:09, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

To get the discussion going for the English entry: we have grammar Nazi and there may be language Nazi (now redlink). What are some other uses of this meaning of "Nazi"? We don't say these things in Czech so the existence of these terms seems lexically significant to me. If this use of Nazi is not broadly productive, I think the terms should be kept. The translations in grammar Nazi are interesting, provided they are correct: Dutch taalnazi (language Nazi), Swedish språkpolis (language police).

spelling Nazi entry has Finnish pilkunviilaaja (pilkku (“comma”) + viilata (“to file, cut with a file”) + -ja (“-er”). --Dan Polansky (talk) 06:24, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Deleted together with spelling nazi. — SGconlaw (talk) 19:04, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

• Unstriking: Let the discussion proceed as per the normal RFD process. The failed spelling nazi was Dutch, not English. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:23, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Delete. --WikiTiki89 00:48, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

Delete as SoP (see Nazi sense 3). — SGconlaw (talk) 06:43, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

Delete, doesn't have the meme status of grammar Nazi. --Barytonesis (talk) 10:08, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

Deleted: it's been more than a month since nomination, and I'm seeing consensus that this is sum-of-parts. — SGconlaw (talk) 14:54, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
