Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Already transwikied. De-prodded with comment "article can be expanded beyond dicdef." Can it? (No opinion yet, let's see what folks can come up with) Pan Dan 03:37, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

    • If you follow the link immediately preceding it, and read the AFD discussion linked to, you'll know why. Uncle G 13:10, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• KeepRedirect to On-line and off-line Wow. Thanks Uncle G for a beautifully written and sourced (and, to me, interesting) article. Yet another topic many of us (including me) didn't think an encyclopedia article could be written about, until Uncle G got to work! Pan Dan 15:17, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment We now have the mind-boggling space-time twisting paradox that, theoretically, Online could be kept but Off-line deleted, or vice versa, yet they're the same article. Ahhhhhhhh! Because I do not want the universe to come to an end (yet), and because Uncle G's rewrite is completely differently from either of its parent articles, I suggest speedy close of both of these AfD discussions.

• Delete. This article is a dictionary entry, but the related AfD for Off-line which now directs to On-line and off-line is for an article which now works out well. As such delete this article, but not the other AfD. Will post the same opinion there. AubreyEllenShomo 21:55, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to On-line and off-line per the related Afd. AubreyEllenShomo 22:01, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
