Jet black hair

We already have brunette. If this content is to be kept it should be moved to Black hair Ideogram 07:33, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brunette is westerners. We are talking about other ethnicities. 168.253.15.112 17:26, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Brunette is dark brown hair. It would be interesting to have an article on black hair and the genetics/cultural signifigance behind it. But it should by moved to Black hair. Dgies 07:40, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per Dgies. J Milburn 11:57, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Move to Black hair. Appears to refer to that anyway, plus larger scope. Luna Santin 12:00, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Black hair - obviously a subtype of black hair so would be better to keep them togetherMammal4 14:30, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep there is no black hair article. 168.253.15.112 17:02, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think the argument is that Jet black hair is too specific, and should become part of a new article called Black hair, which would have more scope Mammal4 17:23, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Black is brunette in terms of color, but Brunettes have brown hair. Brunettes are considered westerners where there are different hair color. Black hair is Jet black hair, otherwise it's considered brunette and is western. What else would be included in black hair, brunette's, no, only jet black hair. That's it. 168.253.15.112 17:25, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep rename as Black hair--Childzy_talk^contribs 17:31, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Rename as above. What is the difference between black and jet black? If hair isn't completely black, then it's brown, black doesn't have shades (it's technically a tone, rather than a colour, if memory serves). --Tango 17:51, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Please see black, it is said in there it is a color. 168.253.15.112 23:58, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article is moved to Black hair

This seems to be a consensus —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 168.253.15.112 (talk • contribs) 18:37, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment - Please do not remove AfD tags until the AfD has been formally closed by an admin. Thank you. Tevildo 19:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The article itself has no sources and seems POV. It'll need a massive rewrite. --ColourBurst 19:46, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Black hair; the two pages are very similar. --GoOdCoNtEnT 20:07, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per comments above; nom provided no reasons relevant to deletion policy. As a side note, it's generally a bad idea to make major changes (such as a move) during an AfD debate, as it makes it difficult for users to determine exactly what's going on. As far as I can tell from looking at the page histories, black hair did not exist prior to this debate, thus it was a move and not a merge, and we need an admin to repair the copy-and-paste move and merge the page histories. -- Northenglish (talk) -- 21:39, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete We have black hair under hair color and this unsourced WP:OR article doesn't make it clear there is more to write about the topic. If someone wants to expand and source it, it might be a keep, but not in the curent state. ~ trialsanderrors 23:44, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There is more to write to it, that's why it was created. We should delete brunette, strawberry blonde, platinum blonde too since they happen so very little frequency and little to expand and merge them all with blonde. Some of those articles have like 1 or 2 sentences. 168.253.15.112 23:54, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that other articles that exist should be deleted doesn't mean this one should exist. Feel free to file AFD's against the other articles. --Ideogram 00:21, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just bringing up relativity. 168.253.15.112 00:24, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Are you trying to say black hair is rare? It's by far the most common hair colour, if I'm not greatly mistaken... --Tango 00:07, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, no I didn't say that. I was just arguing about the strawberry blonde, platinum blonde articles as having a basis for deletion. That's all. Black hair especially jet black is very common. 168.253.15.112 00:11, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that it was a content fork, except with no sourced content. If it were a topic that didn't get covered elsewhere I'd go with the "worthy of expansion" argument but the editors at hair color (not long on sources in the first place) should get back to the drawing board and create enough sourced content before they should think about forking. As about the other ones, some should definitely go. ~ trialsanderrors 00:26, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
