Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Albanian proverbs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Albanian proverbs[edit]

The Wikipedia article Albanian proverbs also exists on Wikiquote (verbatim) as Wikiquote:Albanian proverbs. I think Wikiquote is the more sensible place for this, so I think the Wikipedia page ought to be deleted. Quadell (talk) (quiz)[[]] 17:26, Sep 17, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: As it has been transwikied, it should be deleted. Geogre 18:21, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • I agree, but what do we do about the pages that link to it? Quadell (talk) (quiz)[[]] 18:29, Sep 17, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - Can't it be linked to Wikiquote? - Tεxτurε 19:36, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. And fix links leading to it to lead to Wikiquote. Gwalla | Talk 03:34, 18 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: no information is lost. Wetman 01:30, 21 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Post-deletion: I doubt anyone will see this (unless they spot it on RC), but whoever deleted it did not update the links. Also, I plenty of X proverbs pages still on Wikipedia. This is an all or none issue as far as I'm concerned (I would have voted to keep, but perhaps reduce the number and expand to an article, which I may well do at some point).

I see ya, Dori. I've gone back and updated the links. Yes, I agree, all proverbs pages should be treated the same. (The Albanian one was the only one I found where the Wikiquote version was exactly the same as the Wikipedia version.) I've listed many proverbs pages on Wikipedia:Duplicate articles. I'm not sure what one could say in an Albanian proverbs article, other than "Albanian proverbs are proverbs from Albania." But maybe you can think of something.
