2005: Discussion of disambig

It is not at all clear that there should be an Archaic page at all -- that is a rather generic adjective. --Macrakis 11:08, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. This is an encyclopedia, not a dictionary. If no one objects after five days, I'll move it to VFD. Kurt Weber 17:09, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't object, but I'm at least going to remove the stub tag. =) --Jemiller226 21:01, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't keen on seeing an article with an adjectival title, but I'm not so concerned about a disambiguation page. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 21:18, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm wondering if there should be a page not for "archaic" by itself, but for "archaic period". This is not one period world-wide, but relative to local history/archaeology, so it won't have much substantive content, but mostly point to other articles. Note that there are a lot of pages that point to archaic for no good reason. These should be changed to point to archaism, archaic Greece, or whatever, or be de-linked. --Macrakis 21:43, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds better to me and it gets us out of the dicdef problem. Presumably Archaic could still redirect to Archaic Period though?

If it's changed Archaic period, the link to archaism would probably have to go, as would the other links that I've just added. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 12:23, 7 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't there also be a page linked to from here about the computer hacker/cracker (pick your favourite term) by the handle of "Archaic" who broke into the computers of the CIA, and other such organisations? Seems like he'd be infamous enough to deserve at least a stub. --Mukashi 20:06, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

2007: Metal213, you can make your band article, just call it "Archaic (metal band)"

Welcome to Wikipedia, Metal213. Your changes to this page were reverted because they obliterated the other content. You can still write your article; simply write it under a new title, "Archaic (metal band)", and then put a link to that article on this disambiguation page. Good luck! I will post this message on your talk page also. — ¾-10 22:09, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ленин говорил об экстремизме молодых ?

Да. Сталин говорил о свёрнутых мозгах ? Да. В 60-х хотели ростить кукурузу на Марсе ? В 70-х ЦРУ заползло из Аполло в Союз ? 80-ые вообще 2 по 40 .. А сейчас есть то чего нет ? Да хоть завались ..

Просто я стараюсь догадатьця .. 85.140.11.32 (talk) 22:12, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
