Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Either

Dicdef. Fredrik | talk 10:17, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC) ''Addendum: This page was originally on Votes for deletion/Old but moved here because of a lack of consensus. Johnleemk | Talk 09:01, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. I have transferred the contents to Wiktionary
 * What was transferred doesn't mention either the House of Hanover or logical disjunction. Smerdis of Tlön
 * Keep. Includes historical information beyond a definition.  Smerdis of Tlön 11:33, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * I thought that was what "etymology" sections in Wiktionary pages were for. Fredrik | talk 12:00, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. It is an article about a word and not a concept and thus belongs in Wiktionary. - SimonP 13:14, Jun 24, 2004 (UTC)
 * Try expanding it just as was done with Like (preposition). 66.245.68.167 18:11, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * I have added further references to its ambiguity in law and investments, and a note about Kierkegaard's Either/Or.
 * It's still a dictionary definition; you're merely providing definitions and usage notes of the kind that belong in a dictionary. Fredrik | talk 19:39, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep with new changes. Rhymeless 20:38, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * With new changes just barely belongs here rather than Wiktionary. Keep, although not thrilled with the precedent: I'd rather see Wiktionary become a more encyclopedic dictionary, rather than see Wikipedia become more like a dictionary. -- Jmabel 00:06, Jun 25, 2004 (UTC)
 * Would agree with you, Jmabel, if Wiktionary were more accessible from within Wikipedia. Currently, the process is far from seamless for editors; until it is, I will unhappily vote to keep such extended definitions here. Denni &#9775; 06:42, 2004 Jun 25 (UTC)
 * Wiktionary and delete. Big dictionary definitions are still dictionary definitions. anthony (see warning)
 * The bit about Hanoverian kings is dubious. Eye-ther is the (correct) pronunciation found in the North of England. Original may have been written by a southerner or someone who only visited the tourist traps in the South. It *is* right that it is due to Germanic language influence (specifically the influence of the Saxons and later the Danelaw on the evolution of the English language from 400-1066 AD), but it isn't directly related to the Kings - it would just sound similar because the King was a native speaker of a similar-sounding language. By contrast most of the people in the South of England speak a dialect that was closely influenced by Norman French. I might break out my Archao-Liguistics skills and put together a page on lingual matters such as this. Wikitionary and delete. Sorry for the length. SkArcher 08:06, 27 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * This is a great Wiktionary article. Move there and delete.  Rossami 17:30, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep, expand. -- Merovingian  &#9997; Talk 03:31, Jun 29, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Move to Wiktionary. --Yath 03:33, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, Definately belongs in wictionary, even with changes. Wiktionary isn't just a dictionary.com ripoff.  Think of the OED, that has long entries and is the most respected English Dictionary in the world.  &mdash;siro&chi;o 11:54, Jun 30, 2004 (UTC)
 * Actually, don't delete, move to wictionary, keep and, redirect Either to either . Thats part of the reason for the projects being sisters and all. &mdash;siro&chi;o 12:06, Jun 30, 2004 (UTC)
 * I support these types of interwiki redirects. Since they aren't intended to ever be edited, it doesn't matter that it's difficult to edit them. anthony (see warning)
 * If it is moved in this manner, will the existing links in the article as it stands now continue to function? Smerdis of Tlön 15:28, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * They'll work as redirects. The double redirects can be fixed.  I'll do it if no one else wants to. anthony (see warning)
 * Can also just change a link like xxxx to xxxx, just a little cutting and pasting. So two options, really. &mdash;siro&chi;o 22:45, Jun 30, 2004 (UTC)
 * True or false: this archive is too large. 66.245.115.123 16:45, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. This particular pronunciation difference is notable in itself, has or at any rate once had social implications, and was the subject of a Gershwin song (as I've now noted in the article). Now, if I can just find a GFDL image of Fred and Ginger... Dpbsmith 18:36, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Secretlondon 22:06, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Looks useful and encyclopaedic. --[[User:OldakQuill|Oldak Quill]] 16:35, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
