List of Dutch given names

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

WP:WINAD. This article is merely a list of names belonging to a language (i.e. a word list) with no prose or explanatory text or encyclopedic purpose. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This is the kind of thing that Wiktionary is made for, and so it has been transwikied to Wiktionary and may now be deleted. It is now at wikt:Appendix:Dutch given names. See precedent at, for example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of first names, Articles for deletion/List of given names by language, Articles for deletion/List of East African given names, Articles for deletion/List of Vietnamese given names, Articles for deletion/List of Slavic given names, Articles for deletion/List of Zulu first names, Articles for deletion/List of Persian given names, Articles for deletion/List of Zazaki given names, Articles for deletion/List of Hungarian given names, Articles for deletion/List of the most common Russian names etc. Deletion after transwiki is standard procedure.

 * The process is to Transwiki. We're not deleting because it's nonsense, just post to the right wikisite. BuickCenturyDriver 07:56, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Fundamental Dan 17:21, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as a pure list and with no encyclopedic content, this should be transwikied. --Dweller 20:41, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Transwiki. Very useful, but not right for the wikipedia encyclopedia as-is - Denny 00:27, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
