List of all two-letter combinations

[edit]

Non notable, non-encyclopaedic, meaningless collection −Woodstone 21:18:35, 2005-08-31 (UTC)

  • keep please this is interesting and wikipedia is not paper Yuckfoo 21:37, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete What possible purpose could this serve? If someone's interested in two-letter combinations then can sit down and think up some themselves. The list has absolutely no encyclopedic value. Soltak | Talk 21:45, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - lists of random combinations are not useful but rather just static. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. - Tεxτurε 21:49, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete non-encyclopaedic rubbish, and where will it stop, three letter combinations, four letter combinations, ten letter combinations? DV8 2XL 23:04, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminant collection of information --Carnildo 23:07, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete While I agree that Wikipedia is not paper, I must agree with DV8 2XL. Psy Guy 23:15, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Pointless, non-encyclopedic exercise. Dottore So 23:21, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Meaningless Contextless junk - Hahnchen 23:25, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Carnildo. -Splash 23:29, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • I seem to accidentally have voted twice. Oops! -Splash 13:08, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete' as per nom. DES (talk) 23:52, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete not-paper is not-an-excuse for not-encyclopedic not-content. -Splash 00:01, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Shorten to just real words and rename as List of all two-letter words - a far more useful article. Grutness...wha? 08:30, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep unless the TLA lists are also deleted. -Sean Curtin 01:42, September 1, 2005 (UTC)
    • I'd like to ask you to reconsider this. I agree with you that the TLA lists should go, also, but that's no reason to vote against your own beliefs just to make a point. Nandesuka 21:50, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It's useful and doesn't violate any policies. --Apyule 05:53, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep like the list of three-letter abbreviations. Sjakkalle (Check!) 07:05, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. TLAs are common, and even have their own article. This is not a list of all two letter acronyms that mean something, it's a list of all 676 combinations of two letters. WP:NOT an indiscrimnate etc etc etc. Proto t c 10:39, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This is utterly meaningless. Abbreviations or words are one thing, but simple combinations of letters...Shall we create a page for all 17,576 combinations of three letters, all 456,976 combinations of four letters...the approximately eight billion combinations of seven letters? Cmadler 14:44, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Just to let you know, there are pages for the three leter combinations. --Apyule 16:56, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in an undeletion request). No further edits should be made to this page.


As the vote was split, there is no rough consensus to delete, thus I undeleted the page. -- User:Docu
