List of products/services with alternate symbols for letters

Not encyclopedic. Rhobite 23:58, Mar 9, 2005 (UTC)

Delete -- Why. - Longhair | Talk 01:00, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
D31373^H^H^H^H^H^H Delete. Words fail me at how unencyclopedic this is. --Death phoenix 01:39, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete. And pre-delete the coming List of businesses whose names contain diphthongs, List of products that use a K for a C, or vice versa, and List of companies whose names use punctuation, or whatever else might appear along such lines. -R. fiend 01:51, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete as a bad implementation of a good idea (redirects and disambigs, and there are already some in place for these). --iMb~Mw 02:14, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
D€l€t€. Mind-bogglingly unencyclopedic. DaveTheRed 05:05, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete.. That title really intrigued me. I doubt one would type it into the search box, and second, it was extremely short and I didn't quite get the point of what it was trying to convey... Tygar 06:45, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)
Delete. If anyone ever sets up a wiki for a collection of pointless trivia and obscure facts, then they may want this, but they can do that with their own servers. Average Earthman 10:06, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete, eek. Wyss 01:59, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete. No potential to become encyclopedic. And before someone else brings it up, I know we have List of songs with brackets in their titles and I know it's just as bad and it shouldn't affect our decision on this one. What was the old Boston Chicken logo, by the way—didn't that have ASCII art in it? Dpbsmith (talk) 03:22, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Oh my god, how did that ever survive the VfD process? DaveTheRed 20:08, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  - It didn't just slip by; it had quite a thorough discussion, preserved at Talk:List of songs with brackets in their titles. there were the usual überinclusionists and some real votes from people who genuinely enjoy quirky lists. And there's always sympathy (from me too!) for anything that's a) the product of systematic, thorough hard work and b) can't be easily found elsewhere. I think there may be a de facto consensus that lists of songs get a special dispensation; look at Category:Lists_of_songs. But I'd really like to limit it to songs!

Delete. No potential to become encyclopedic because it's trivial trivia. Jayjg ^(talk) 03:44, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete. Absurdly, pathetically, mind-fuckingly trivial. Binadot 05:51, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
D31373. The connection is so trivial it physically hurts. Chris 16:09, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete as being below the point of even subtrivia. If this stays, my next article might very well be Lucky 6.9's Cordless Drill. - Lucky 6.9 07:49, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
