• Delete altogether, WP is not a book of general sayings and idioms. What's next, "One for the money, two for the show?" or "A bird in hand is worth two in the bush," ad nauseum.

• Transwiki to Wiktionary. This is a dicdef (a discussion of the meaning and usage of a word or phrase). I see no possibility of expansion. Rossami 20:57, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
