This article easily fails WP:NOT, as wikipedia is not a dictionary. It's got just a dictionary definition and a list of things the word may refer too, which is entirely unnecessary. Alexcs114 (talk) 14:49, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2023 June 3. —cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 15:12, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

- Keep as it is a valid disambiguation, though I'm not sure if we should keep the beginning part about the definiton. Johannes Frederick-Gaitan (talk) 17:48, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. Entries should be removed and the definition needs to go, sure. But Weird Lake, Weird (Hanson song), Weird!, Weird (character), and WEIRD need disambiguating. SWinxy (talk) 18:44, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Fair point, I hadn't realized that it was a disambiguation page. I'll withdraw the article as a nominee for deletion and change it to just have the disambig (and not the definition). I'll also make sure to take a closer look at future articles before nominating them, so my apologies there. I just saw the definition and was at a breaking point with definition articles, lol Alexcs114 (talk) 20:52, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Withdrawn by Nominator: Seems to be a consensus to delete the definition and keep the disambiguation, which is fine by me. Hadn't realized this was a disambiguation page, my bad. Alexcs114 (talk) 20:54, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
