Holiday and the redirect Vacation
I assume we do not want to go down the road of explaining every travel term? --Traveler100 (talk) 17:42, 13 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. I'd say speedy since it seems obviously wrong to me, but it is better to leave the nomination here to inform the contributor and give a chance for discussion. Pashley (talk) 17:52, 13 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete. The fact that "holiday" in British English means the same as "vacation" in American English is mentioned and clarified on American and British English, and that's absolutely all that is needed. Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:04, 13 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. Pashley's argument against speedy deletion is compelling, but as to the merits of this article itself, there are none. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 19:57, 13 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Redirect or disambiguate. But the fact that Wikivoyage is still lacking basic words that any travel guide would have is embarrassing. Normsdale (talk) 23:16, 13 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Question: Redirect to what, and on what policy basis? This site is not a repository of keywords; that's not what Wikivoyage is about. Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:20, 13 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Since there is a real place in Florida called Holiday I say keep the article for information about the place and merge the dictionary definitions to the relevant phrasebooks. Normsdale (talk) 08:27, 14 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Agree with Normsdales last "keep as an article for the destination", but I don't think it's "embarrassing" that we don't have pages to define what a holiday or vacation are. I dare you to find a printed travel guide with a glossary definition for what a vacation is. It's pretty much a given. Texugo (talk) 13:22, 14 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Redirect Holiday to User:Wrh2 per multiple spellings. Am I missing something? --Peter Talk 03:28, 16 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete per above, and because holiday is a bit vague. --Rschen7754 02:20, 17 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. In this case I don't think redirecting is a good idea. I have already removed one link to this page, and I expect that anybody finding any other links is not going to be looking for a small place in Florida. AlasdairW (talk) 22:07, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per this policy.  Curtaintoad (user · talk · contribs)  03:43, 18 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete - just as Texugo said, do we really need an article explaining what holiday/vacation means? Ypsilon (talk) 17:00, 18 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 22:06, 18 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete Unless someone wants to really develop the Florida town article, it looks like a joke to keep it, and we definitely don't need to become an English dictionary. If someone is surfing the English language version of Wikivoyage, then it is assumed that they know English. It's not our responsibility to teach anyone. ChubbyWimbus (talk) 06:57, 21 April 2013 (UTC)


 * According to WP, the Florida town has a population of twenty-odd thousand and is a suburb of Tampa. I'd say redirect to Tampa unless/until someone wants to develop it further. Vacation, just delete. Pashley (talk) 13:31, 21 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I think Pashley's suggestion is the way to go here. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 13:40, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
