It's hard to see this going anywhere, and even harder to see it as being encyclopedic. --jpgordon{gab} 03:32, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete Wikipedia is not a user manual. Kappa 03:43, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • It could be encyclopedic as a comparison of command between the two editors, but isn't currently. I'm going to say transwiki to wikibooks for now. siroχo 04:15, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
    • I think a comparison would be even worse than this. In any case, this falls outside the scope of Wikipedia. Delete --Improv 18:13, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. I have no idea what VIM and Emacs are, and the article doesn't even begin to try to explain to the layman what those symbols mean. [[User:Livajo|力伟|]] 04:32, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge with editor wars. Alphax (talk) 05:20, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Wikipedia is not a software documentation repository. -- Karada 14:24, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • Sadly, delete as it has little to no content. Even if there were, there isn't much encyclopedic merit to a comparison of editor commands. And for the record: vim, vi, and emacs. - [[User:KeithTyler|Keith D. Tyler [flame]]] 19:10, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Should belong in Wikibooks, or the commands should be noted in their respective Emacs or vi articles. - Ta bu shi da yu 02:12, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)
