Syntyche

Looks like a dictionary definition. Not sure how much it can be expanded beyond that, although this sort of page might be a useful start. In any case, it's already in Wiktionary. Cosmic Latte (talk) 02:47, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~Quite ambiguously phrased, too, so it looks like it might also meet CSD A1. Cosmic Latte (talk) 03:16, 29 June 2008 (UTC)~~[reply]

Comment - we might need an expert to weigh in here. Syntyche appears to be a given name, the root being the Greek word for 'affable'. But Syntyche was also the name of a person who is notable enough to appear in the Bible. So she could be worth an article. - Richard Cavell (talk) 07:53, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. Maybe it should be given a needs-expert-attention tag rather than deleted. Cosmic Latte (talk) 09:54, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, but tag for expert attention. Perhaps a bit ironic, given that I nominated this AfD, but Mr. Cavell has a good point. Cosmic Latte (talk) 13:40, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Tagged per above. Are you withdrawing your nom, then? Or should the AfD proceed ? Plvekamp (talk) 19:16, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Yes, I see no reason to pursue the AfD any further. The way the article was written, it sounded a lot like a dictionary definition, but it's clear now that the article can be expanded so that it sounds much better and so that it is considerably more informative.

Keep. Plenty of scope for expansion by using material from these 767 books and these 366 scholarly articles. Phil Bridger (talk) 12:32, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
