List of places inspiring definitions in The Meaning of Liff
Delete: non-encyclopedic. This is a list of towns whose names sounded funny enough to Douglas Adams and John Lloyd to inspire them to put more made-up words in their two Liff books. The article serves no purpose. Brian Kendig 02:40, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as lift-cruft, although I wouldn't object to a Merge to The Meaning of Liff if this was article about those places and definitions rather than a list of them. Savidan 02:51, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, Listcruft.--Isotope23 03:44, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, although I wouldn't mind a merge as per Savidan. Lord Bob 17:46, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Listcruft, as above. I'm not sure a merge with the Liff articles would serve to illuminate the subjects but I am open to persuasion.  (aeropagitica)   19:04, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as a list of interest to a very limited number of people, i.e. listcruft. Stifle 00:34, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's mentioned in the article on The Meaning of Liff as being only a partial list. None of them have their definitions (which is only right, since that would be dubious from the copyright viewpoint) - and without them, there's simply no point. Most importantly, it doesn't even mention The Deeper Meaning of Liff 's entry on Grutness! Grutness...wha?  01:18, 15 February 2006 (UTC).

 * Delete per nom. Avi 15:46, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Place names considered unusual. The list is non-notable alone, but at least it is manageable and objective.--Karnesky 22:49, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Convert to Category. Do I mean move, or delete-then-create-a-new-category? Either way, that's what I think should happen. --Billpg 11:08, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
