Light switch

non-encyclopedic. My summary would be: a light switch is a switch used to turn on and off a light. Trivial, sub-stub, not expandable (newbie test?). Also, dictionary definition. (Has only one link other than dead end pages.) RJFJR 17:25, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

• Keep Non-expandable? I can't see why Japanese toilets could be expanded and this one can't. Grue 18:00, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete, inaccurate stub. Let someone else try another time. Wyss 18:23, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

• Delete: It doesn't do any harm to delete it, does it? If somebody somehow has something encyclopedic to say on "light switches", deleting this doesn't stop them from writing the article. --BM 21:58, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep This can easily be expanded. --Ld 22:13, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep some expansion has already taken place. Hopefully someone will add an illustration of the contacts etc. Kappa 22:34, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep and request cleanup/expansion. More expandibility: Novelty light switch plates are a notable aspect of American kitsch folk art; the article could introduce this. Besides standard switches, it could explain how dimmers work, and light switches where you tug a string. Samaritan 23:22, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep and, hopefully, expand. Dan100 00:01, Dec 20, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. I remember reading an interesting "How Things Work" article when I was a child about light switches; this is easily within the bounds of encyclopedic knowledge. --LostLeviathan 00:08, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep, looks like a good start to me. Shane King 00:13, Dec 20, 2004 (UTC)
