Talk:Preciousness

Delete

I realise I seem to be more conservative than others when it comes to what deserves a page, but do we really need a page for every single adjective or verb used in Doctor Who.

A page on preciousness because a baby was described as precious, a page on coming because Ruby's mum was said to come to the church... Is there a line? Jack ☎ 11:48, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

"Coming" is a more technical noun, but as far as I can tell policy is that every noun gets a page. I would say "preciousness" warrants a page more, though, since it's not quite as general as "the concept of coming". Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 11:51, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

The examples given in on coming aren't in its noun form, though, they're in its usage as a verb. And the example given on this page is an example of the adjective form of precious, not the noun. Aquanafrahudy 📢 🖊️ 14:33, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

By that logic someone saying they're going to run, or that they just ran, isn't a reference to running, and something being described as beautiful isn't a reference to beauty. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 14:46, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Instances of blue-as-adjective definitely belong on blue. Equally however, at the very least an instance of the noun being used in the DWU is required here. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 15:23, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Is it? I wasn't aware of that, and it seems a bit bizarre that the stuff here is valid to be included on the page, yet having the page has to hold off until it's explicitly used as a noun. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 16:19, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
