- Delete, wiktionary doesn't need it. --fvw* 16:21, 2004 Dec 29 (UTC)
- Keep—see nothing wrong with keeping these lists.—Ëzhiki (erinaceus europeaus) 17:15, Dec 29, 2004 (UTC)
- Move to Wiktionary if it's not there already. Then delete, a list of words only related by sound isn't encyclopedic. Also rhyming is a dictionary entry property, shouldn't be in encyclopedia. Mgm|(talk) 17:19, Dec 29, 2004 (UTC)
- Delete, an encyclopedia is not the place for these lists and, as fvw says, wiktionary doesn't need them either; see [1]. Rje 17:27, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Delete, since wiktionary doesn't need it. Jeltz talk 17:46, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

- Delete. Ask the Wiktionary editors whether they want them; transwiki only if they do. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, rhyming or otherwise. Dpbsmith (talk) 19:50, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Delete ...ack! Unencyclopedic in the extreme, nn. Wyss 20:59, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: Black hell might need thick wrappings of pitch to ignite, but we don't need these dictionary functions in an encyclopedia. Geogre 03:56, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Delete or transwiki. Wikipedia is not a rhyming dictionary. -- Cyrius|✎ 04:16, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)
