Production dictionary

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No independent indication of notability. Appears to be an effort to advertise an invention or a neologism. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:19, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I was also set to call b.s. on this but a Gbooks search indicates that such a term does exist, as a sort of variant of thesaurus -- one that I'd never heard of as a 58-year-old writer. Apparently geared more for students than writers, in that in addition to synonyms it supplies dictionary definitions and examples of usage? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:38, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment It seems that the Longman Language Activator is the only widely published example (maybe there are others in different languages, and other volumes like Oxford Learner's Thesaurus: A Dictionary of Synonyms seem to be similar in intention). It has at least one review. There may be some notability, but it's not clear what title it should be under, or if a merge might be better. It should be clear that it is a real thing dating at least to the 1990s, not a new invention. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:32, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
