List of Slavic given names[edit]

Per WP:WINAD and prior strong precedent, I have transwikied this article to wikt:Appendix:Slovakian given names, where it is more appropriate. Lists of names are not encyclopedic, but they do belong in Wiktionary, and that's where we have moved them before (e.g., see Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of first names). This should now be deleted. Dmcdevit·t 06:28, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Del. Quite useless listcruft. The author seems to have confused "Slovak" and "Slavic". --Ghirla ^-трёп- 06:49, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment This might simply be a typo on your part, but "Slovakian" and "Slavic" aren't synonyms. This should be transwikied to "Slavic given names", unless you're sure that every single name on the list is Slovakian and not Ukrainian, Russian, Polish, Serbian, Slovenian, Czech, etc. --Charlene.fic 13:06, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article itself says they're all Slovakian (Possibly all Slovak, too, but I couldn't tell). There's one section for Slovakian names, and that's the only section. Dmcdevit·t 20:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. The text is about Slovakian names only, not Slavic, and is quite lousy one. It selects those names that feel to someone to be Slavic/Slovakian/??? enough even if they are practically unused and ignores those widely used (Peter, Pavol, Ján, ...). Few female forms seem to be invented here, AFAICS. Pavel Vozenilek 16:21, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• See also List of Czech given names, List of Armenian given names currently on VfD. This one is far bellow in quality. Pavel Vozenilek 14:41, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Wikipedia is not paper. If it's a carefully composed list, keep it. If it's useful to other Mediawiki projects as well, it's definitely well built. For those that are not interested in lists, they just move on the next article. -- User:Docu
