Turner (utensil)

Was tagged as a speedy. Delete. Lupo 09:24, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, notable kitchen utensil. Kappa 09:31, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article could be expanded, though. -Hapsiainen 13:08, May 31, 2005 (UTC)
Merge to kitchen utensil. Radiant_* 13:32, May 31, 2005 (UTC)
- comment - Kitchen utensil seems to be redirecting to Category:Food preparation utensils, anyone know what this is about? -- Lochaber 13:34, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, needs expansion and could do with a picture. -- Lochaber 13:34, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Lovely Utensil. I might at the photo at spatula is misslabeled, as it is really a turner. A spatula is a flat bladed thing used for mixing. Klonimus 20:26, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Not mislabeled; "turner" is just one alternative name for this kind of spatula. "Spatula" is a very overloaded term for kitchen utensils; refers to many flat utentils including those used to lift, and scrape, spread. Interestingly--perhaps regional differences--I myself wouldn't know what a "turner" was if someone asked for one, but I *would* know what a "pancake turner" was. Go figure.

As much as I would like to say delete, we do have breadbox, so . . . keep. --Scimitar 13:52, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It's at least as worthy as frosting spatula. Brenton 15:54, May 31, 2005 (UTC)
Strong Keep. A useful definition, which has (allbeit limited) scope for expansion. Worthy of remaining as a stub, certainly no grounds to delete (and definitely not as a speedy as you mention, Lupo!). UkPaolo 16:38, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with spatula. -- BD2412 ^talk 17:05, 2005 May 31 (UTC)
Here we go again: all nouns are notable. Might as well merge WP with Wiktionary now and get it over with. In fact, if "keep" prevails here, let's propose a change to WP:NOT to remove the "not a dictionary" line, since pretty soon WP will be a de-facto dictionary. Dicdefs are being voted "keep" pretty regularly. Delete or Merge with spatula —Wahoofive (talk) 18:01, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Of course real things are notable, but I strongly oppose re-merging with wiktionary, or we'd end up with "all words in all languages". Kappa 18:07, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - Huh? If your recent voting pattern prevails, WP will end up with "all words in all languages" without being merged with Wiktionary. I vote delete for the same reason as Brenton voted to keep: "It's at least as worthy as frosting spatula." No English cliches that I know of, nor standard line of questioning, uses "turner (utensil" as notably as "bigger than a breadbox". Barno 18:51, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - I don't think you've been watching my votes very carefully. Kappa 19:10, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with spatula. Elf | Talk 19:09, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as per Elf. I'm very much an inclusionist on kitchen utensils, but these items have no meaning outside of spatula, and this small amount of info would be more useful in that article. Meelar (talk) 19:32, May 31, 2005 (UTC)
Merge with spatula. --Carnildo 21:03, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep all common household objects. Capitalistroadster 23:34, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with spatula --Doc (?) 08:21, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Merge with spatula, since spatula is an inherently funny word. the wub (talk) 15:16, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
keep please this is much more than just an ordinary noun Yuckfoo 16:06, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Keep common household object. JamesBurns 09:43, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Merge. From the stub: The turner is a specialized form of a spatula. There's not much to write about the spatula, let alone having separate articles for these. No Account
