WP:WINAD. This article is merely a list of names belonging to a language (i.e. a word list) with no prose or explanatory text or encyclopedic purpose. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This is the kind of thing that Wiktionary is made for, and so it has been transwikied to Wiktionary and may now be deleted. It is now at wikt:Appendix:Spanish given names. See precedent at, for example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of first names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of given names by language, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of East African given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Vietnamese given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Slavic given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Zulu first names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Persian given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Zazaki given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Hungarian given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of the most common Russian names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Lithuanian given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of French given names, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Armenian given names 2, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Portuguese given names, etc. Deletion after transwiki is standard procedure.

- OK and why is this not a joint nomination? What are the fundamental differences between those lists that they might need to be treated differently? ~ trialsanderrors 08:29, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I wasn't sure. I've done batches of AfDs before and no one ever suggested combining them, and I'm always afraid it'll get messy if some people have different opinions on different articles. Is there a rule of thumb on the practice? I'll make sure to do a joint nomination next time if that is preferred. Dmcdevit·t 09:02, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah if they're not just of the same class (obscure programming languages) but functionally identical and there is no apparent reason why they should be treated differently you're better off joint nominating. ~ trialsanderrors 09:07, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. There'll likely be more of these, now that we have a reliable transwiki bot finally. Take a look at Category:Transwiki cleanup if you get a chance. Dmcdevit·t 09:14, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per nom, since they have been transwikied. Whatever that is. Inkpaduta 19:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
