Lady friend[edit]

This doesn't look like an encyclopedia article. Georgia guy (talk) 21:59, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Merge to girlfriend for now; we'll see how that works out and revisit the issue later if needed. The concept of the lady friend is an important cultural phenomenon. Aldrich Hanssen (talk) 22:13, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Girlfriend. "Lady friend" already has a wiktionary entry. [1] Pop Secret (talk) 22:28, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Girlfriend. The article does not do a good job of showing how it is an "an important cultural phenomenon". tabor-^{drop me a line} 22:47, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The problem with a redirect to "girlfriend" is that "lady friend" is not exactly the same concept. If it were, then there would be no need for people to make the distinction. Aldrich Hanssen (talk) 22:49, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

comment Then maybe merge with Girlfriend? tabor-^{drop me a line} 22:58, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. We'll see if any editors of the girlfriend article object. That article seems overly short, by the way; it may be that those interested in the subject focused their efforts in other articles such as romantic relationship and didn't want to have the content overlap. In that case, we might very well do a merge there as well. Aldrich Hanssen (talk) 23:13, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
