This article was traswiki'd to Wiktionary in March 2010 after Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Spanish words of Italic origin reached no consensus. The transwiki'd content has since been developed into wikt:Appendix:Spanish words of Italic origin. The content is therefore duplicated, making this page redundant.
I am also nominating 'List of Spanish words of Italian origin', which was split from 'List of Spanish words of Italic origin' following the earlier AfD.

- Delete - Unmaintainable as a WP article as language boundaries between Spanish and Occitan etc are too fluid, this kind of thing comes under the scope of wiktionary anyway. Bienfuxia (talk) 08:01, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- Delete all articles of this type WP is actually supposed to be an encyclopedia, not the sum of all information about every topic. If we have a policy "not a dictionary" how much less should WP be a data base of all words of all languages? Kitfoxxe (talk) 08:12, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- Comment There is scope for these sort of articles here, for example List of English words of Chinese origin, but not with languages this closely related - unless people from the Spanish language wikipedia would like to develop it into a higher quality list of course.

- I agree totally that WP "is not paper" so there is room for anything. However that kind of thing is really more like a data base than an encyclopedia, however interesting it is to browse. Kitfoxxe (talk) 13:23, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

- Delete. Since all Romance languages are Italic languages by definition, doing this list correctly will necessarily include the entire core vocabulary of Spanish. Such a list would necessarily be unwieldy and unhelpful. Other articles of this type may be more manageable and informative, however. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:34, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- Should we have articles on Korean words of Aztec origin or Finnish words of Arabic origin or the many thousands of other combinations? Kitfoxxe (talk) 18:11, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
