Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Galatico
Stublet on non-notable auxlang, documented only in Italian according to the article. Google finds lots of hits for the word but most are unrelated since apparently "galatico" is "galactic" in Italian, (Brazilian) Portuguese, and possibly Spanish. -- pne 11:18, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. We havve many articles on obscure languages. Some even have Wikipedias. Krik 11:41, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- We have exactly two Wikipedias for constructed languages. Documenting obscure natural languages is fine by me, but everybody and his dog can and does produce conlangs, some with delusions of auxlang grandeur. I don't think that every one-man conlang should have an entry here. -- pne 11:53, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Possible vanity by anon, and unencyclopedic in any case. The article gives no evidence that the Italian-language "novel" in which this artificial language is described exists in printed form rather than just as a file downloadable from the website link given, or that it has any form of fame or recognition.

- Delete. Obscure natural languages are still of notable cultural and anthropological importance. Modern invented languages are only of any significance if you get enough people joining in, even if it just large numbers of rather obsessive fans dressed as sci-fi aliens or hobbits. But with no multi-generational science fiction series or massively successful novel/film trilogy backing it up, this language is of no importance whatsoever. Average Earthman 13:56, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. No evidence of notability. Wile E. Heresiarch 15:00, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Delete, a language needs a present or past community of speakers to be worthy of inclusion. Everyking 15:03, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
