For the past little while, I've been working on the http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/Complete_list_of_encyclopedia_topics pages. I laboriously removed all of the links to existing articles, and uncovered about 400 pages that had been orphaned except for the link from here. Since then, though, the common opinion seems to be that even after all that these pages are still more trouble than they're worth, filled with bad article titles and such.
So now I'd like to delete them, and I've been broaching the subject all over the place in order to make sure nobody's got a problem with that. These pages probably took a lot of work to make, so I don't want to dispose of them if anyone can think of anything remotely useful to use them for.
99% of these were compiled by me, taking some public-domain word lists, auto-sorting and -wikifying them (which explains the bad titles, plurals etc.). The idea was to have a list of both "what we have" and "what we still need", ultimately aiming for the 100.000 articles:)
"What we have" is now solved with the search function, orphans, etc. (including the deactivated "all pages" function; we should get this up again, some way). "What we need" is solved even better with the "Most Wanted".
So, no complaint from me if you delete them; we *do* have a working history mechanism, just in case...
