I would like to start cleaning up [[Category:Move to Wiktionary]]. I
plan to create entries in Wiktionary, if they don't already exist, or
remove the template if it is not appropriate. What I'd like to know if
it possible to speedy delete the item, if it's been moved? Although this
is not a candidate by definition, it has already been established that
Wikipedia is not a dictionary. I understand that some topics have the
potential to become encyclopedic (what doesn't, really), but items that
are moved and deleted can always be recreated if someone truly wishes to
make an article on the subject. I'm also aware that we're not running
out of paper, but I don't think cleaning things up a bit is a bad thing
either. Personally, I get annoyed when I click on a live link, hoping to
find some decent info on a trivial subject, but only getting a
definition. Although each item could be nominated on VfD, that would
quickly overload the page, and make it a lot of work for people who
maintain it, not the mention the additional work involved in creating
the subpage and listing it. I'm aware some entries get greatly expanded
when VfD'ed, but this isn't easy when the article only contains a
dicdef. Therefore, can the deletion policy be amended to include obvious
dictionary definitions?
