This list has a fairly arbitrary format. It could just as well include words with—well, many consonants, as in long words with more consonants than other words. Compare to the recent outcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of words in English without A, E, I, O or U. Delete or send to Wiktionary. --BDD (talk) 16:56, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - This is very, very trivial information which doesn't belong on Wikipedia. TCN7JM 17:15, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. There seems to be a bit of research into the roles of consonants vs vowels in hearing comprehension,[1][2] but listing words by "ratio" (it isn't even that) is WP:OR. I will feel no angst ("ratio": 0.8) when this gets jettisoned. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:17, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - see WP:HTRIV; also fails WP:CALC. Ansh666 03:20, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as beyond our scope. This may fit in with Wiktionary's goals (perhaps as a project page there if nothing else?) if someone wants to do a transwiki and is able. ThemFromSpace 02:12, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
