Wikipedia is not a dictionary. KDS4444^Talk 23:26, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak opposeWeak keep - Article is terrible, but NOTDICTIONARY does not apply here for the same reason on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Lie: the article is about the concept, not the word. I could almost get behind a WP:NUKEANDPAVE though. EvergreenFir (talk) 02:41, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Keep - Article is about the concept not just the word. Article is badly in need of development but no reason for deletion.--Penbat (talk) 07:54, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Keep The nomination seems frivolous in that the page in question does not resemble a dictionary entry and the nomination does not address the page and its content in any way; it just makes a vague wave to a policy. Andrew (talk) 08:24, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. I don't much like articles based around common English words, but it's a very difficult case to argue that this one qualifies as a dicdef. Comparative religion and psychology alone could expand this article to Good or maybe even Featured. If you can't convince me that it's worth deleting, I doubt you'll have much luck with anyone else.

• Keep per EvergreenFir. Matty.007 11:20, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - the article's quality is not so good but it seems encyclopedic to me. --AmaryllisGardener ^talk 16:40, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
