Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sophistication
This is a clear .  The single sentence lead is the dictionary definition of the word, and the 2-sentence "history" section is a partial etymology of the word.  These are all elements of a dictionary definition.  It has been claimed that this article is only a stub and is capable of being expanded beyond a dictionary definition, but this has not been shown to be true and I have my doubts that it is possible
