This article fails WP:NOTDICT. Prod removed in 2006 by original author, with their second and final edit to Wikipedia Jeepday (talk) 18:19, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep because this article is not a dictionary definition. It is a description of the notable thing itself, not the word, and is well beyond a stub. The fact that the original author is no longer active on Wikipedia is in no way a good argument for deletion. Improve and add references through normal editing.

Keep I am perplexed. The article is nothing like a dictionary definition. Also, I cannot see any policy reason why it should be deleted. Talk:Microphone stand would be a more appropriate forum for discussion. Thincat (talk) 19:18, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTDICT "Wikipedia is not a dictionary or a slang, jargon or usage guide." Other then opening sentence which is a dictionary defination every paragraph has "use" in it, and describes which attachments and accessories to use for which application. Microphone stand is a dictionary definition and a user guide, and nothing else. Both of which Wikipedia is not the place for. Jeepday (talk) 19:32, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What an intriguing line of thought. Thincat (talk) 19:38, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
