  • Surely if you just revert all edits by User:66.14.154.3 the page is fine? (that's a keep vote by the way) -- Graham ☺ | Talk 09:46, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Reverted. Keep. -Sean Curtin 23:03, 11 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Ah. OK, keep now. RickK 23:20, Jul 11, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. I keep a good dictionary and a Roget's beside my computer. I do not expect (nor would it be practical for) Wikipedia to provide these. Which is why we have Wiktionary, for instance. If I where a pore speler, I would have a misspelling dictionary as well. Though a sister project might be the place for it, this article does not belong here. Denni 23:41, 2004 Jul 11 (UTC)
    • Comment: This is not an article, see my comment below. Andrewa 03:20, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Dictionaries and spell-checkers exist for a reason. Spectatrix 00:34, 2004 Jul 12 (UTC)
  • Keep. Very useful project page for some. Sure it doesn't fit everyone's style of editing, but do we really want to set a precedent of imposing this sort of control? Surely not. Vive freedom! Andrewa 00:43, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: It's just not encyclopedic. Geogre 01:20, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • Comment: Please note that this is a project namespace page. It's not an article, and the question is not whether or not it's encyclopedic. Rather the question we ask about project namespace articles is whether they are helpful in building the encyclopedia. Andrewa 03:20, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • I missed it in my blear, and I therefore have no vote. Geogre 03:57, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • keep - this is fine. Secretlondon 01:24, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep project page. Niteowlneils 03:47, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. This isn't supposed to be an encyclopedia entry. The Wikipedia: namespace is for items useful in constructing the work. This assuredly is. Jamesday 03:58, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. This page is usefull too aviod comon misspelings :-) andy 07:22, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Given that this has been delisted because the utter destruction of the page was reverted, this comment is unnecessary, but there's something everyone here has missed. The entries on this page are used by the currently non-updating MediaWiki spell checker [1]. -- Cyrius| 13:10, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
