Request for deletion[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


"The novel by J. M. Barrie.", "The eponymous protagonist of the novel". The attributive use is given as the third sense, so no need for these. --Yair rand 00:23, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you need an RFD for a sense. Edit the entry. - [The]DaveRoss 00:32, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Individual senses don't need an RFD? Then why in the world do we have {{rfd-sense}}? --Yair rand 00:45, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
As with the entirety of RFD, it is for debatable deletions. These aren't debatable, they are clearly outside the CFI: With respect to names of persons or places from fictional universes, they shall not be included unless they are used out of context in an attributive sense.. - [The]DaveRoss 00:53, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. We've already got the "dictionary sense", which is a man who hasn't grown up. We aren't here to document literature. Equinox 00:58, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tinkerbell[edit]

"A fairy, a companion of Peter Pan, who depends on the faith of others to live." Again, attributive use is given in a different sense, so no need for this. --Yair rand 00:25, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Peter Pan above: we have the sense that isn't the specific character, and she can be mentioned in the etymology. Equinox 00:59, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
deleted. - [The]DaveRoss 01:08, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Uncle Scrooge[edit]

One more. --Yair rand 00:47, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
