Atlango

Atlango was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was delete.

Atlango is an invented language. Article was apparently submitted by it's creator. There are hits on the web but the few that I looked at seemed to be also associated with the language's creator. --LeeHunter 21:04, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

• Delete, unless some evidence that its actually used by someone is presented. Otherwise it's non-notable. Cdc 23:58, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete: Private languages need to be really, really, really notable to be notable, if you know what I mean. Unless thorough verification of use is presented, delete. Geogre 00:58, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• 830 hits on Google isn't enough for notability. A bunch of results were in Atlango (I presume), but that article looks like it was stolen off a website. Delete. --Idont Havaname 01:02, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Comment. Hardly noticeable Google wise but could be a real genuine new something ? But as it stands now it could also be a hoax. Few hits, the "pay pal" link at end of web page for a single author as opposed to an organisation... I just can't verify that. Also, it sounds like a joke when we think of the Esperanto which is alive for more than a century and... pretty much a failure. I'd say delete for now. --Gtabary 09:45, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. The creator may have genuinely come up with something that could be used as a language, but we'd need proof that it is being used as a language (even if only to the extent that Esperanto is). Average Earthman 10:07, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Fares (delete). La lango Atlango saka la testikloy di asno. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 10:56, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
