The result was delete. If anyone wants to take on "rescoping" this article, contact me and I move it to Draft space. But right now, that idea seems like a good notion and not like a project anyone is willing to spend time on. Liz Read! Talk! 22:42, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

Polish exonyms

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A totally pointless list. Why the heck we must know Polish names in Albania or Antarctica (or, omigod!, in Micronesia)? Not to say the list is completely non-maintainable: there are zillions of places on Earth that obviously have Polish names Lokys dar Vienas (talk) 22:34, 18 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete Agreed that this list if pointless. The vast majority of places are going to have names in other languages. If you wanted to know the name of a place in Polish, it would be more convenient to go to Google Translate for that. Waddles 🗩 🖉 22:49, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I could see this as part of an article why foreign cities have different names in different languages, but every name in Polish is useless.Oaktree b (talk) 01:01, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Rescope to only places with significant connections to Poland. I see a value in a list of exonyms of places over which Poland formerly ruled in the past, or of locales where Little Poland diaspora communities are documented, but indiscriminate Polish names of every place in the world are not the way to go. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

 * I could support this, seems like a valid use of Wiki. Oaktree b (talk) 13:18, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * and the name for non-notable parking lot "Zaborowski Viewpoint and Zaborowski Parking Lot" is also given in Polish, as proof that this article is a mess. Oaktree b (talk) 01:08, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Of course, every place in the world would have a Polish exonym, and there are way too many to list. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 15:06, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
