I agree, and I just wanted to create a base for this page, which could be built upon. However, I discovered this page, which I believe is essentially the same thing as what I have, but better. I am perfectly fine with my page being deleted, but I believe that "List of words of disputed pronunciation" should be removed from the Most Wanted Page List.

  • Delete: Massive, massive potential scope that is not feasible for a list ( WP:SALAT). Plus, "disputed" is a somewhat loaded word for alternate pronunciations that opens up a prescriptivist can of worms we really don't need to. Gnomingstuff ( talk) 16:43, 26 September 2022 (UTC) reply
