Names for the Romani people

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Just a list of translations of a word to various languages. Wikipedia is not a dictionary and such a list belongs to the Wiktionary. (I marked this article for transwiki and it has been automatically copied to this Wiktionary page) bogdan (talk) 21:23, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete once the transwikied article appears in the main Wiktionary space. This list is substantially incomplete, confining itself to the derived words from the rom root.  A much more interesting article could be made about the names that other people and languages use to refer to the Roma people: but that article contains a section that discusses the issue, although it strikes me as somewhat incomplete, and confusingly under the Etymology heading. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 13:59, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing more than a collection of dictionary definitions. WilliamH (talk) 16:24, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
