Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of SAT words

The College Board or ETS does not specify which particular words it tests on the SAT. This listing is probably computer generated and therefore a copyright violation of whatever test prep company that generated it. If it is to be kept at all, a list of words should be moved to wiktionary so they can be linked and be renamed List of words commonly tested on the SAT. --Jiang 20:22, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete as unverifiable. If it must be kept, agree with Jiang that this would be better in Wiktionary. Rossami 22:06, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)
 * This is just dumb. Delete -- Cyrius|&#9998 00:38, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Dicdef list. If used at all, move to Wikitionary. - MGM 10:54, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
 * Wiktionary, and add link on the SAT page. I don't believe a list of words or (original) definitions can be copyrighted.  If people sell wordlists that purport to give advantage on the SAT, this gives the idea some credibility; then again, people also sold snake oil. The notion that certain words recur often on the SAT is at the very least a circulating urban legend. If true, the list is a valuable resource.  Smerdis of Tlön 16:06, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
 * Unverifiable. Del. Minesweeper 19:02, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
 * Move to Wiktionary. Maybe some sort of Words worthy of study for the SAT article could be set up there. It's not possible to copyright a list of words, but the definitions should probably come from Wiktionary. I'm sure some other words could be added. For example, I specifically remember the word "plethora" from my SAT, and it's not on this list. (Got it right, by the way. ;-)
 * Keep. I found this after reading the SAT article and I think its helpful. Latitudinarian 19:56, 1 May 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. There is no official list of "5014 words" for the SAT, as the page claims. By circulating such a list, Wikipedia could even do harm if some hapless (and overly trusting) high school student decides to use this as his or her sole study list for the SAT. And unless someone conducts a study that analyzes several years worth of SAT tests (and Wikipedia is not the place for original research), no similar list is verifiable or belongs here. --Lowellian 03:43, May 2, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete all: copyvio. See this talk page where User:147.252.229.65 says he copied it from, and note the terms of use and copyright notice there. I'll go put a copyvio notice on the main page now. -- You know, we really, really need to do a better job of getting new editors to understand copyright issues. It's embarrassing, and dangerous, that we get new copyvios on a daily basis. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:19, 2 May 2004 (UTC)
 * Some others have asserted that a list of SAT words cannot be copyrighted. I disagree. There is obvious editorial content: the list is purported to be words that are useful on the SAT test. If I am not mistaken, that makes it copyrightable. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:45, 2 May 2004 (UTC)
