General comments (not for a specific tip)
C++ code completiongoogle
Delete. Don't bother with a redirect. --Fritzophrenic 21:59, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Agree. I have flagged the page for deletion in case someone is watching it, and we can delete it in a few days if no further discussion occurs. JohnBeckett 11:25, June 7, 2011 (UTC)
Combine quickfix steps
Keep. Looks useful. Put in quickfix category if we have one. --Fritzophrenic 22:16, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Agree. We have some tips that mention getqflist (76, 203, 692, 1639), but none duplicate this topic. I don't think we have a quickfix category; I'll think about that. JohnBeckett 11:25, June 7, 2011 (UTC)
- Category:Compiler is close enough for now. Maybe we ought to reword the category introduction...or just make a new category. Also added the above to a "see also" section. --Fritzophrenic 04:05, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
How to create a dictionary for every .NET component - a project plan
Delete. No real content useful to Vim users. This seems to be just a proposal for a plugin. The links have nothing to do with Vim. --Fritzophrenic 22:04, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Quick switching two alternate commented out blocks in C++
Clever, but not much to do with Vim. Tentative delete per normal process. Possibly with a mapping to insert the construct it is worth keeping. It is easy enough to use blockwise visual selection to accomplish the task in a more reliable fashion anyway. --Fritzophrenic 22:09, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
- Agree. I have flagged the page for deletion in case someone is watching it. I noted on the tip that it would be confusing if read by a programmer not familiar with the idea, and that there are plenty of comment/uncomment plugins (our tips are 271, 369, 388, 660, 981, 1570, but I think there are good plugins for this). I don't see a need to wait for longer than a few days (and it can always be undeleted if someone raises an issue later than that), but if you want to wait with this one, that's fine.
