Wikipedia:Why you should learn the IPA

 * – (View MfD) &#8203;

Work in progres since 2016. Original creator inactive from the same year to this day. NotAGenious (talk) 19:09, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. I don't think anyone would object to speedy delete under WP:G1 (patent nonsense), WP:A3 (no substantive content), or WP:G7 (basically a blank page). ~Anachronist (talk) 19:27, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
 * As much as it I believe it should be deleted here, none of these criteria apply: G1 does not apply as the content is intelligible, A3 does not apply as this is in the Wikipedia namespace, and G7 does not apply as the author has not requested deletion.

 * Yeah, I figured it was stretch, except for G1. "Patent nonsense" does not equate to "unintelligible". The entire content of the page is "because User:Shirt58 said so", which is patently nonsensical. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:26, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Pointless page. The world won't fall in if we wait another week to delete this. But [[WP:G2]] would fit for a speedy. Looks like a test page to me. Nick Moyes (talk) 20:26, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - Nothing there. This is the article's full text:
 * "Because User:Shirt58 said so. (This page is a work in progress)."

 * Delete: Never finished and creator now deceased so never will be finished. C LYDE TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE 02:56, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - Either stupid unfinished page or stupid finished sub-stub page. Robert McClenon (talk) 06:00, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment - I expanded the page past its original content. Previous !votes were based upon the page in this state. 137.22.90.250 (talk) 22:57, 12 September 2023 (UTC)


 * thoughts on above? NotAGenious (talk) 04:57, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Not enough for a standalone essay. At best it should redirect to one of the places it currently links. ~Anachronist (talk) 05:21, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment - The revision is not a continuation of the essay, but a stub about a slightly different related topic. I think that the revision breaks some sort of dramatic unity.  I am not changing my !vote.  I am assuming that the IP is not the ghost of the author of the stub.  Robert McClenon (talk) 06:01, 13 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete and WP:SNOWCLOSE. This falls under WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:IAR applies here as well. Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 17:14, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
