Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Etimologio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Delete all - I initially tagged these for translation but a day later it became clear that these are just translations of sets of esperanzo words. Unless this is a new project I am unaware of it should be deleted. - Tεxτurε 15:44, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete ...speedily....--leandros 16:58, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Delete. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, much less an Esperanto to English dictionary. But Leandros gave me a chance to get on my high horse again - they do not meet any of the specific cases on candidates for speedy deletion. Rossami 18:36, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete all. Apparently some sort of linguistic source material in Esperanto. I can't read it but there seems no hope of saving any of them. Andrewa 21:33, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • No, you're misunderstanding the article. The point is not to be an Esperanto-English glossary. The main article named Etymology says "Vi trovos sube la vortojn kiuj devenas de la sama fonto (indo-eŭropa aŭ alia)", i.e. "Below you'll find words deriving from the same root (Indo-European or other)". There are then some interesting lists of English words (and, less usefully, the corresponding Esperanto words) which exhibit the same root. Since this info could be useful, I have dumped it all onto Talk:Etymology where it can be translated and incorporated into the proper article for it. I've also turned them all into redirects to Etymology. The redirects (except perhaps Etimologio) should then be deleted. — Chameleon Main/Talk/Images 14:43, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)
