- Delete What's the point of having a policy that Wikipedia is not a dictionary when we keep dictionary entries? This entry is nothing more than a definition of a driveway. Is someone going to take the time to research and write about the history of driveways? Is someone going to comment on the notable driveways of the past? Does someone know who the inventor of the driveway is? Will we solve the age old question of why we drive in a parkway and park in a driveway? If someone gets passionate about the driveway to the extent that they want to write an encyclopedia entry on the topic they can always recreate it when the time comes. As it stands now it warrants only deletion. Being a real thing does not an encyclopedia entry make. Kevin Rector 20:48, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
- The point of the "not a dictionary" policy is to get rid of things like adjectives and phrases which are inherently non-encyclopedic, in contrast to real things which are the opposite. Kappa 02:14, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
