The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
This more-or-less refers to an app (supposedly) for building a coalition, even if the "building" is being done by outside observers talking about how such a coalition could come together. I thought about sending this to RfV, but it's SOP even if it exists. bd2412 T 06:47, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- It does seem like a marketing name and an SoP one at that. It is like calling a recipe a cook. DCDuring (talk) 19:08, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- I've actually seen a lot instances of "X builder" used to mean "tool used to build X", such as "level builders" for various video games. I agree that coalition builder is SOP, but I think we're missing a definition for builder. Binarystep (talk) 05:34, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- I have added a definition to builder, "Software that allows the user to create a certain kind of automated output". Perhaps that can be tweaked, but I think it gets the gist. bd2412 T 06:26, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Binarystep: Would this be a boldface delete from you on "coalition builder" or do I misinterpret your above words? --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:49, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
- See my comment below. Although coalition builder is SOP, I'd rather keep it as a translation hub than delete it outright. Binarystep (talk) 23:24, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Binarystep: Thank you. Should both coalition builder and coalition calculator be kept as translation hubs or can one of them be deleted, presumably coalition calculator? --Dan Polansky (talk) 07:29, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
- coalition calculator is less common, so it can be deleted. Binarystep (talk) 22:12, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
- "Less common" (than ?) is not a criterion for deletion. DCDuring (talk) 16:59, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

coalition calculator[edit]
Same as above. SOP to sense 1 of coalition and sense 1 of calculator. bd2412 T 01:32, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
- Keep as translation hub. Binarystep (talk) 11:12, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Binarystep: coalition builder and coalition calculator offer the same translations, so we certainly don't need to keep both of them. The question then becomes, which one? bd2412 T 05:50, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
- I'd go with coalition builder since it's more commonly used. Binarystep (talk) 01:09, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

- "coalition calculator" can be deleted, since above it says "coalition calculator is less common, so it can be deleted. Binarystep". --Dan Polansky (talk) 08:15, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per Binarystep. — excarnateSojourner (talk · contrib) 20:52, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
Kept with respect to coalition builder, as a translation hub; deleted as to coalition calculator. bd2412 T 03:13, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
