Numerary

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Topic fails to meet the general notability guideline as well as Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Topic is a word (adjective), rather than a person, a people, a concept, a place, an event, a thing etc. Article is essentially a dictionary definition followed by a collection of poorly-sourced/unsourced trivia about other subjects. No significant coverage of the topic in reliable sources found. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 21:48, 18 November 2016 (UTC) ~~See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Supernumerary. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 23:45, 18 November 2016 (UTC)~~ —updated 00:11, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

delete The word basically means "member of permanent staff". We don't have articles neither permananent staff nor staff (organization) because the term is extremely generic. The disambig pare must sit in this place. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:36, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete current content and move Numerary (disambiguation) to its place. This is a dictionary definition followed by an immense trivial example farm, poorly sourced and giving way too much emphasis to minor matters. A full paragraph plus bullet list for a graphoanalyst society? Really? Reyk _YO! 08:45, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
