Talk:Tetris-like

Request for deletion
Delete. Sum of Parts. Any noun can be suffixed with -like. We should only include real "-like" words such as cherrylike, glasslike, etc, which do not have to be hyphenated in the first place.


 * Agreed, delete. I'm going to go ahead and take all the SoP requests out of Wanted entries.  — Raifʻhār Doremítzwr ~ (U · T · C) ~ 13:52, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

RFD discussion: January–March 2023
Undelete Tetris-like per WT:COALMINE: Tetris-like is much more common than the attested Tetrislike. This should not need a RFD but since an administrator deleted Tetris-like on 1 November 2022 with the rationale "Previously deleted/failed RFD or RFV", we need to use a formal process to undelete the entry. WT:COALMINE is rather controversial yet Votes/2019-08/Rescinding the "Coalmine" policy resulted in 3-21-3 fail for rescinding it and there is no newer data as far as I know. If someone wants to challenge COALMINE one more time via a vote, that is surely an option. --Dan Polansky (talk) 15:27, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Undelete, although it now (since November) requires an admin to do it. It passes COALMINE, and the notion that you can't use a hyphen in entries with -like is completely barmy. DonnanZ (talk) 17:50, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
