Talk:Great Pyramid of Giza

Great Pyramid of Giza
While obviously a topic of great encyclopedic interest, I don't see how this "term" is an element of the English language. --Connel MacKenzie 20:40, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I only added it (and other Wonders of the world) because I saw Stephen G Brown had made Russian entries for them. --Keene 20:50, 22 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. Every language will have a different translation of this. —Stephen 21:17, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Every language will also have a different translation of the weather in London. This is equally non-idiomatic. The Great Pyramid of Giza, it is. bd2412 T 22:01, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. We should have translations for the Wonders of the world and "Great Pyramid of Giza" appears to be the correct proper noun when listing the ancient wonders of the world, not just "Great Pyramid". Thats also why Great Pyramid redirects to Great Pyramid of Giza saying ""Great Pyramid" redirects here. You may have been looking for the Great Pyramid of Cholula or the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan in Mexico", because there are also other Great Pyramids. Mutante 22:34, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep; I agree with the "Wonders of the World" reasoning. Note also that the weather in London is not analogous, since it is not a proper noun. --EncycloPetey 02:36, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Proper name of a specific entity, clearly attestable. Anything shorter would be ambiguous. DAVilla 04:48, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete or move. Proper name of a specific entity, belongs in appendix if anywhere. -- Visviva 11:12, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, I am more worried about Statue of Zeus at Olympia, which I wouldn't recognise as a set phrase at all. Widsith 11:16, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * weak keep. I see no problem with having these, though they may want to be moved to Appendix:Wonders of the World. Conrad.Irwin 21:37, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think an appendix is warranted for a seven-item list.&mdash;msh210 &#x2120; 20:04, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

3 voting "keep", 2 voting "weak keep", 1 voting "delete", 1 voting "delete or move", 1 implicitly voting "delete" (by nominating with a pro-deletion comment), 1 implicitly abstaining (by not explicitly voting, and by giving a motivational rather than consequential explanation of having created the entry); so, say ~3–5 voting "keep", ~3 voting "delete". I'm closing this as no consensus to delete; if you object, re-open it. —Ruakh TALK 14:14, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
