French-English dictionary entry. Correct but not encyclopedical. --Kpalion 22:57, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * Delete and Transwiki into Wiktionary. David Johnson 01:06, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: I don't think we should transwiki questionable dictdefs. Wiktionary isn't dying for new content this way.  A "soiree," at least in Am. Engl., is an evening party.  (Hmmm, actually, it has always been an evening party, even in French.)  Geogre 02:59, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Redirect to party. -Sean Curtin 03:16, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)
 * I thought soirée was an exclusively French word. If it's really used in English, then I agree with a redirect to party. --Kpalion 03:47, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * It is used in English as a loanword. Redirect to party --Improv 05:30, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
