Sheening
Hi Jillian, I understand that keeping the article about "sheening" may be important to you, but it may be contrary to some of Wikipedia's policies. I'm going to leave a note at Articles for deletion/Sheening explaining the problems with the article. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 04:59, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. It's not an easy process, but it doesn't have to be finished tonight. The deletion discussion will continue for several days, during which you can continue to improve the article. Good luck. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 05:09, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

I replied on my talk page re: your comment on Sheening, but here's a copy of what I posted there: The fundamental problem here to me is that regardless of the frequency of use of the word, the entry is still a dictionary definition; while Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Wiktionary is a far more appropriate location for submitting dictionary terms. See Wikipedia is not a dictionary for more on this. Even if you can resolve that issue, the article still must meet the criteria of notability (see WP:N for Wikipedia's criteria of what it takes be be notable). --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 05:15, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
