Prolicide

Prolicide hits up 4840 on Google, brief survey suggests that it is a depreciated term for the death of your children, born or unborn, or something like that. Non-notable dictionary term, of a dictionary being on the long list of things that WP:Wikipedia is not.--Tznkai (talk) 16:38, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:15, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Seems to be a disambiguation page. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:28, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I'd say it's masquerading as one, but disambiguation pages tend to be about disparate uses of the same term--e.g., Bob (person) vs. Bob (song)--whereas this is basically a dicdef with wikilinked synonyms. Cosmic Latte (talk) 08:25, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A dicdef with wikilinks is still a dicdef. Cosmic Latte (talk) 18:14, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- No, it's a disambiguation, between two articles on two subjects that would each, if the other did not exist, have a redirect here. That's one of the major reasons for disambiguation, and this is a perfectly valid disambiguation article. Uncle G (talk) 15:25, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Seems to be a useful navigational aid with respect to Wikipedia article topics atht are either referenced by the term or closely related. Replacing it by a redirect with a hat note seems to be a worse solution and removing it altogether would make Wikipedia less useful.--Tikiwont (talk) 14:05, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
