Talk:SOS Alarm

RFD discussion: June 2019–June 2022
"a Swedish state owned non-profit organization handling emergency calls". Isn't this encyclopedic? &mdash; surjection &lang; &rang; 10:33, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I created the article solely because it can be used synonymously with the words 112, 90000, and nittiotusen. It wasn't meant to be more encyclopedic than a dictionary entry.--Christoffre (talk) 19:51, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Synonym links can also be made to point to Wikipedia entries, although if it serves lexical purpose as a term for the number, it might be worth keeping (but the definition needs to reflect that). &mdash; surjection &lang; &rang; 20:37, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * There was no Wikipedia entry at the time of writing (but there is one now). Can you give an idea on how to improve the definition to reflect a more lexical purpose, or point towards any certain help article?--Christoffre (talk) 23:35, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * The way I would personally do it is to either only have a definition that goes something like "synonym of 112 (the emergency number)" and point out that it is actually the name of a company in the Etymology section (along the lines of "From, the name of the publicly owned company that operates the number.") Naturally, some editors may think otherwise, but as far as I know, there isn't a consistent guideline for this (the closest thing is the CFI policy on company names). &mdash; surjection &lang; &rang; 09:09, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
 * When used as a synonym of “112” (or "nödnummer”) in a collocation like “ringa SOS Alarm”, is it still a proper noun, or should it then be classified as a common noun? (Compare the classification of as (just) “Noun”.  --Lambiam 18:22, 10 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Seems purely encyclopedic. Delete. Ultimateria (talk) 19:33, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is an encyclopedic entry whose only reason for existence is because it didn't have a Wikipedia article at the time of creation, which it does now. Since synonym links can point to WP articles, this entry no longer serves a purpose. Glades12 (talk) 11:58, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
