Ygyde

Ygyde (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Contested prod. I can find nothing about this 'language' in any major papers (using Lexis-Nexis) or using Google Scholar. Google does give a fair number of hits, but most appear to be Yahoo groups, blogs, or similar non reliable sources. At best, this appears non-notable, at worst, a hoax, or something made up in school one day. As such, I think this should be deleted, unless notability can be established. Author replied to notice I put on his User Talk stating:

I suggest that you compare Ygyde with other oligosynthetic languages, for example, Sona (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sona_language) and aUI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AUI). Ygyde is superior to both of them. The Ygyde site (http://www.medianet.pl/~andrew/ygyde/ygyde.htm) is the equivalent of a small book (114 letter size pages). Let Ygyde be judged on its own merits.

However, this does not address the problem of notability - Aagtbdfoua 19:11, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. The possible utility of this language doesn't override the fact that it doesn't appear to be widely recognized. Zetawoof^(ζ) 20:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

• keep, Google search for "Ygyde" gets 2510 matches. --EarthFurst 21:20, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

• Comment, as I state in the nom, all the ones I looked at do not appear to be reliable sources, but I did not look at them all. Can you highlight several or any that meet this criteria? - Aagtbdfoua 21:42, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - without any references or sources to show some notability or atleast recognized it's hard to assume that this is a real language and not something made up in school one day. Jayden54 23:02, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Jayden54. Danny Lilithborne 02:52, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to international auxiliary language in lieu of deletion. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-12-30 01:34Z
