A tree that's, er, oak. Tooironic 09:44, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Probably delete, although I sort of feel like this is all one word (but with a space in it). Mglovesfun (talk) 09:48, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Keep, as the space-free form "oaktree" is citable: , , , , , and more. --Dan Polansky 10:19, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
A good example of why including spaced forms because there is an includable solid or hyphenated form is a waste of resources. Show this form as an unlinked alternative form/spelling without an entry. Delete. DCDuring TALK 12:21, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
What resources are wasted by keeping the entry? Do you mean the space in the wiki database?

The technical resources that require fundraising, response time, maintaining it, and especially user time on extra click vs redirect. Not to mention generating misleading entry counts. The vote result is Policy, but not necessarily good policy. DCDuring TALK 13:17, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
By "technical resources" do you mean the computers and software that are Wikimedia servers? Wiktionary takes a tiny fraction of these resources as compared to Wikipedia, Wikisource and Wikibooks.
The vote result is above all that: a vote result. It is a record of consensus among Wiktionary editors. --Dan Polansky 14:12, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Unfortunately, WT:COALMINE says we keep this.​—msh210℠ 19:13, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
See also portmanteau word above, which I'd put in the same class (noun + qualifying noun). Mglovesfun (talk) 00:19, 16 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Fortunately, WT:COALMINE says we keep this (and thereby make our dictionary an even broader record of terms in use). bd2412 T 02:17, 16 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Keep per WT:COALMINE. --Yair rand 22:12, 21 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
