Silent key[edit]

This is a dictionary definition, and I can't see any scope for encyclopedic expansion - how is a dead amateur radio operator any more notable than a dead follower of any other hobby? Phil Bridger (talk) 22:55, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Given that the one is simply a name for a particular sort of the other, a merger — of duplicate articles discussing the same thing by different titles — is the obvious answer. One doesn't need AFD for this. Uncle G (talk) 15:27, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Amateur radio operator or similar article. It is significant within the amateur community but not readers at large. JodyB_talk 00:32, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
