Deletion debate
[edit]
The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
"rivers" is not a context. The template displays "geography" which (IMO) is a context. However to write (geography) Nile is ridiculous. How are words like Nile, Seine, Thames and Danube not used outside of geography? Mglovesfun (talk) 14:53, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- If geography were a context it should be used for the terms that academic, professional, student, and amateur geographers use. Context tags should not be used for purely topical categories (though there may be circumstances where there is a coincidence between context and topical category). In any event, Nile is not a geographic term nor is its use limited to geographers. DCDuring TALK 22:44, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Agreed. This should be replaced with Category:en:Rivers or whatever, and deleted. —Michael Z. 2012-05-22 20:48 z
Failed, it violates a vote so it was a mistake for me to nominate it, it should've been shot on sight. Mglovesfun (talk) 21:20, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
