  • Reinstated, and made into a proper entry. Please replace content of nonsense articles with genuine titles rather than deleting them. — Paul G 10:58, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • Um, I thought first names were indexed but the entries themselves were discouraged. That's why I whacked the garbage, instead of replacing it with content. Is my understanding of first names incorrect, or is it just that we should try to create entries no matter what, in lieu of deletion? --Connel MacKenzie 17:07, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • I've never seen anything discouraging adding entries for given names. I have added dozens myself and never had anyone comment on that until now. If a user looks up "rob", the word they are after might actually be the name rather than the verb. Similarly, if they look up "Megan", I believe there should be something there telling them it is a name. — Paul G 10:02, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • Thanks for the clarification. I don't know why I had that mistaken impression, but I did (and that is why I initially deleted it.) --Connel MacKenzie 16:53, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • This one's been adequately fixed and should stay. Still, I don't feel the obligation to replace a nonsense article with something real immediately. Deleting should still be acceptable. The title can always be revived when someone is ready to deal with it. Eclecticology 08:37, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Agreed. I'll rephrase my request as a comment: "Replacing the content of nonsense articles with genuine titles is preferable to deleting them." (that's more readable too) — Paul G 10:06, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

MEE-gan

I met someone who pronounced her name MEE-gan. I think the world should document this (the pronunciation, not the meeting). --Genecioso (talk) 18:52, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
