Scope of linguistics

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

Page is little more than a list of linguistic disciplines, all of which are also found on Linguistics. Moreover, 'scope of linguistics' is not a very likely search term. Besides, it seems to me that the page really only exists to give credence to the author's page creation, 'micro-linguistics,' which survived AfD only after a complete rewrite.

 * Delete My initial reaction would be to redirect to Linguistics; but the nom has a good point about this being rather unlikely. No need to have this article, as we don't need even little content forks.  Nyttend (talk) 15:12, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:28, 9 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. This would appear to be redundant to List of linguistics topics. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 20:24, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
