Skip (in record player)

Another dicdef, with a couple of examples of people who have used the term. Yawn. —Wahoofive (talk) 04:02, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. A dictionary definition, belongs in Wiktionary. – AxSkov (☏) 08:22, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

As if that wasn't already obvious to anyone with any experience in judging AfD's. =) — JIP | Talk 16:20, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep Doesn't the mention of artists that use skipping in their music lift the article above dicdef? Last Malthusian 12:02, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - dictdefs belong to wiktionary. I don't see any potential to make it a real article, nor a topic worthy one. andy 12:07, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - dictdef --G Rutter 12:55, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Dictdef already in Wiktionary. —Cryptic (talk) 13:28, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Clearly a dictdef! End of story, surely. Peeper 15:13, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Article has clear potential. What causes skipping? What has it been used for? Etc. etc. Also, die, sockpuppets, die. Sdedeo 17:04, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per Sdedeo, but find a better title. Skip (recording), perhaps, since even as-is we're not discussing just records? We'd also want to disambiguate with Skip (music), which was my first guess at a name. — Lomn | Talk / RfC 18:38, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
  • How about "Skip (recording media)" or just "Skip (media)". We should make a disambig page if one doesn't already exist. Sdedeo 18:49, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• transwiktionary as per above Roodog2k (talk) 19:53, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• delete per above (or transw.) Does not warrant an article. Dottore So 22:07, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, has more potential to be a decent article than a lot of things we've kept. Tagged it for cleanup. Titoxd 23:38, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and rename, the bit about intentionally using skipping in songs could be enlarged making it an encyclopedic entry. --best, kevin ···Kzollman | Talk··· 01:05, September 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per Sdedeo. —RaD Man (talk) 07:23, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
• Transwiktionary as per all. Owen× ☎ 01:09, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Gramophone record, which discusses the phenomenon under Gramophone record#disc limitations in more detail than the article under consideration contains. Dpbsmith (talk) 01:54, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete! It's a detail of a dicdef. Barely even that. Any detailed info attached is just vinylcruft. / Peter ^Isotalo 21:21, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
