Indiscriminate listcruft. For some reason this survived while list of one-letter English words and list of three-letter English words were deleted. There is no assertion of why two-letter words are notable among other words and the list is as indiscriminiate as List of x-letter names or List of x-letter countries. Though I am aware of the "other crap was deleted" fallacy I fail to see the point of this. If this is useful to scrabble players then those interested in that should remember that Wikipedia is not a game guide. Also, as noted by the closer of the last AfD useful is not an argument tied to policy in anyway. Not keeping indiscriminate information with no assertion of notability is policy.

 * Transwiki per nom. (we had earlier deleted three-letter and one-letter lists; just follow the prior AfD which was somewhat contemporaneous with those deletions...Carlossuarez46 18:49, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
