Personifcation
Dic def and mispelled.  Molotov   (talk)     18:50, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

It needs more explanation.
 * I would say redirect to personification, but that page is a redirect to anthropomorphism. Punkmorten 18:54, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * So speedy redirect to anthropomorphism then. -- howcheng  [ talk &#149; contribs &#149; web ] 19:01, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Move to correct spelling, keep and clean up. (I will actually touch it up a bit in the current namespace after I do this AfD.) This will one day be a lot larger than a dicdef; it's an important concept in literature, especially poetry. As the article for anthropomorphism says, they're not quite the same. A short explanation, a few examples, and a see also to anthropomorphism should do the trick. --Jacquelyn Marie 19:13, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep and Move as per Jacquelyn Marie. Distinct and valid literary term. Even mentioned in the lead of anthropomorphism. -- Rune Welsh | &tau;&alpha;&lambda;&kappa; | Esperanza  19:35, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep move and expand Jacquelyn Marie's good rewrite. A search on Ebbsco's Academic Search Premier came up with 468 results so it seems to be a widely used term. Capitalistroadster 19:37, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to anthropomorphism, as that article covers the use of personification in literature (see Anthropomorphism) --Anetode 22:29, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I can't understand a word you are saying. Maybe you should simplify the words so that people that don't know what personifcation means can understand it.
 * Keep and move per above arguments. Punkmorten 18:29, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
