List of differences

 * — (View AfD)

I am also nominating the following related pages:

These articles simply demonstrate the difference between two English words; WP:NOT a dictionary. If these differences are truly significant, they can be detailed on the individual articles for hair, fur, etc. Skate-on 21:27, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong delete all The subpages are all just dicdefs, and the entire thing is unencyclopedic on its own (that is, if these differences need to be explained, they will be explained within the context of larger articles). -- Kicking222 21:35, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * delete all per above Arnoutf 21:53, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all. Obviously these "articles" as they stand have no merit as articles. There are possibly some cases where the differences between things deserve an article (I can't think of any at the moment), but "articles" like these are rather too arbitrary in their subject. You could extend this sort of thing forever: Difference between Algeria and Tunisia, Difference between coffee and tea, Difference between cardboard and paper, and so on, all adding nothing of value.--A bit iffy 21:54, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all- there are an infinite number of "differences" and Wikipedia is not a how-to guide for telling differences between rocks and stones anyway. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 22:26, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Curiously Strong Delete All. List of differences, that's it?! Holy jeez, I think that says it all.  --Dennisthe2 22:36, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOT. Mitaphane talk 22:36, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Sweet fancy Moses. JuJube 23:00, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Eliminate or is it delete, if only there were an article that told me the difference between the two ;) This is the job of a good cross referenced thesaurus/dictionary. SkierRMH, 23:23, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Partial delete for all except Difference between boat and ship as that is an interesting topic that has some value. Most people in the Marine community get confused on this issue and this is as good an explanation as any that I have seen. --- Safemariner 01:05, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all per above. GassyGuy 22:36, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
