Answer to your query re Piano tilters

[edit]

There is a Wikipedia policy stating WP is not a dictionary: Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Second, having a book use a word does not constitute a source. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 14:43, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think there's a difference between a stub that needs to be expanded and a dictionary entry. That source isn't great, but it's a start, and it does more than merely _use_ the word. At any rate, I'm glad we're discussing whether this article should be deleted, instead of having it wiped out with no discussion at all as if it were spam. The guidelines for deletion even have sections for discussing articles that are patent nonsense and spam, so even if it was pure spam, it's not out of bounds to have a discussion before deleting the entire thing wholesale. Consider that many people (and women especially) are turned off to contributing to Wikipedia because they put time and effort into helping and then have all of their work mercilessly erased without any warning.
