Delete I tagged this page for speedy as "nonsense" before realizing that didn't quite fit without an explanation. As somebody has pointed out on the talk page, "genesis" is not a "suffix"; it is a Classical Greek cognate. Wikipedia is also not a dictionary. This page lists "examples" that are actually either examples of Greek prefixes or full Greek words (i.e. abiogenesis) attached to "genesis". CaveatLector Talk Contrib 04:41, 12 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:DICT. I'm curious about why it would qualify for WP:NONSENSE, however. Estemi (talk) 05:06, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. Mostly because it's rather non-sensical to call "genesis" (which is a word) a "suffix". CaveatLector Talk Contrib 10:09, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Please familiarize yourself with what patent nonsense actually is, and is not. Clearly, since you disputed its accuracy, you were able to make sense of the article. Uncle G (talk) 14:22, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Um...yes, that's why I removed the speedy tag and AFDed it instead... CaveatLector Talk Contrib 02:35, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as a definition. Drmies (talk) 06:38, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Page isn't just a definition, because of the list of examples.  For the reasons outlined by CaveatLector above (i.e. that genesis is not a suffix), however, said list of examples is essentially an indiscriminate list of information.  I can't imagine anyone wanting to search for a list of words that include "genesis" within them. JulesH (talk) 08:10, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
