Prod converted to AfD Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:57, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Was prodded "No references, no evidence of notability", but many people likely will come across the word in Star Trek and look it up here. A link is needed from here to the full description http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Transtator in the Memory Alpha wiki. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:01, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as original PROD-er—the article appears to fail WP:N, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". —Granger (talk · contribs) 15:23, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I'm not familiar with Star Trek devices but my searches found nothing to suggest there's much about this. I'm not seeing a target for moving as well. SwisterTwister talk 23:46, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~Redirect~~ to universal translator. Artw (talk) 11:52, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Why? Based on the Memory Alpha article, transtators don't seem to have anything to do with universal translators in Star Trek. —Granger (talk · contribs) 13:04, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Fair point, I was thinking if general SF usage, but that's not the only use of the word and then we're into dicdef and really a delete is probably for the best. Artw (talk) 22:07, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
