it's not my problem
Sum of parts - it's + not + my + problem. ---&gt; Tooironic 21:52, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, not a proverb, just quite common. Also nobody says the "it's". Mglovesfun (talk) 23:54, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. If anything, should be at not one's problem:. Equinox ◑ 23:59, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, sum of parts, obviously. --Actarus (Prince d&#39;Euphor) 13:15, 26 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep, probably as not one's problem/not my problem. It looks like a perfect candidate for the oft-reviled phrasebook. Much more functional than the "I need a/an X" entries. DCDuring TALK 15:09, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Err on the side of keep per DCDuring's reference to phrasebook; looks phrasebookish, and gives me 7,390,000 hits and  gives me 598 hits. I am not sure whether a move to "not my problem" or something is needed; the phrase has high number of Google hits as it is. But it is not a proverb. --Dan Polansky 11:49, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Just a thought: this is a cliche, is it not? So does an overused cliche (redundant) become so ubiquitous, that it somehow transform in a manner similar to the transformation of something novel into "idiomatic" status? If so, I don't know that we could say that it is not thereby [idiomatic]. But the rub is that it is still SoP and so I would lean toward delete. Maybe it belongs in a redirect target list of cliches, which need not be Wiktionary but could be in a domain called WikiCliches. More likely, it could be a subdomain of perhaps a Rap Idol Tribute website or something like that. {tongue partially in cheek}Geof Bard 20:10, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
 * If consensus overrules, I hope that the entry is (a) relegated to a phrasebook or such, and (b) written in the same manner as the cliche itself, ie., not my problem. Nobody says "not one's problem". And -not to be picking bones to pick - sometimes people do say "it's" not my problem or "that's" not my problem, but those are discretionary calls so, for different reasons, I concur with Mg. The entry, if there is to be one, should IMO be [not my problem]. I also agree with Mg that it is by no means a "proverb".Geof Bard 20:16, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

deleted per consensus and, I don't see this as a phrase that would be very useful for a phrasebook. -- Prince Kassad 19:22, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
