Trillionaire
Is this a useful article?? How large does the magnitude of the money someone makes go?? Delete if no one can explain how practical this article can be. Georgia guy 00:40, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Dicdef. Could probably redirect to wealth or a list of rich people.  -Sean Curtin 01:02, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * 152.163.100.203 (talk &bull; contribs) removed the tag, that was on and that really should be on this article, given billionaire. Put this article back in the Wiktionary queue, as it was before the anonymous user edited it. Uncle G 01:13, 2005 Mar 13 (UTC)
 * A Dicdef that needs to be put Transwikied into Wiktionary. Zzyzx11 01:22, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Onto Wiktionary! Tygar 02:28, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Does wiktionary want words for things that don't exist? Few nations are even worth a trillion dollars, and certainly no people are. -R. fiend 02:38, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete. Becoming a trillionaire may be possible in the future, but for now the article seems unneccessary. Edited article.  &#1090;&#601; z&#1108; &#1090;&#1110;
 * Comment: Apparently Bill Gates is well on his way, only 20 years to go (or 5 if things go well). He probably already is one if you use the right currency. Kappa 03:45, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. This could be a useful article when Bill gets to be a trillionaire. 03:48, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * The above unsigned vote was by Suffice.  &#1090;&#601; z&#1108; &#1090;&#1110;
 * Delete. The article in its present form doesn't provide any useful information and there isn't much that can be written other than a dictionary definition of the term. - NormanEinstein 04:39, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Since none exist yet, even a dicdef wouldn't be all that useful. Allowing this article to exist sets a bad precedent for quadrillionaire, quintillionaire, sextillionaire, etc. Android79 05:00, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete dicdef, imaginary subject. Gates's wealth in dollars has been decreasing steadily. I don't know where people get the idea that he's headed for trillionaire. Gazpacho 05:53, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Wiktionary or delete. Megan1967 07:15, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not worth the effort and delay involved in transwiki.  Billionaire is a ridiculously better base to create trillionaire from than this. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 09:44, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete for now - David Gerard 13:55, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, agree with Korath. DaveTheRed 19:17, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - agree with Korath. -- Cyrius|&#9998; 20:34, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete until some of them exist Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd 14:37, Mar 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, dictionary definition at best. Re-create after hyperinflation. -- Curps 19:11, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wiktionary. There are no trillionaires, and won't be for a long time to come.  Even the richest person on the planet is hovering around $50 billion, which is 1/20th of a trillion. --BD2412 04:34, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * It's not at all difficult to be a trillionaire in some currencies. I'm thinking Turkish Lira here, where £1,000,000,000,000 = $760,000Tom k&e 09:46, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
