- Keep the topic of French loan words in Farsi is the subject of scholarship e.g 1, 2, 3 and 4. Mccapra (talk) 20:53, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm aware that it is, but we're not here due to notability concerns. If we were discussing an article about the French influence on Farsi, I'd vote to keep. The operative issue that this just a word list (a basically unref'd word list) and WP:NOTDICTIONARY. PepperBeast (talk) 05:02, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:Deletion is not cleanup, unless it is so bad it requires WP:TNTing. Curbon7 (talk) 19:51, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, WP:TNT. If someone wants to do some improvement over at Persian vocabulary, that's fine. If someone wants to write an actual article on the influence of French on Persian vocabulary, that's also great. This is not that article; this is not an article. It's literally a list of words. There is nothing to salvage. PepperBeast (talk) 20:24, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Star Mississippi 14:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: In general, same reasons as Mccapra. This article's intro could be improved, like List of loanwords in Assyrian Neo-Aramaic.
- Also, comment, but we've nominated a ton of these type of "Loan words" articles for deletion today.
- it seems that we are having a discussion about a large swathe of articles across multiple deletion discussion, and we should instead focus on maybe a broader discussion of these? User:Sawerchessread (talk) 18:02, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to Influence of the French language on Farsi and tag as unsourced and needing cleanup. BD2412 T 03:36, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
