Are we going to have the 4 and 5 and 6 letter abbreviations?  Joyous 04:51, Jun 11, 2004 (UTC)

I suppose it could appeases someone's academic interest about how many of the possible TLAs are used.  Just going by the ones that have articles, it looks like about a third are used. CyborgTosser 08:37, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)

:yeah, i totally agree.  although i'm normally as inclusionist as possible, I can't figure out what the point could possibly be of a list of all the possible 3 letter combinations of the english alphabet.  A list of TLAs in use is one thing, but that isn't what this is, this is just a long list that could be summed up just as easily by giving on mathematical expression with an exclamation point in it, or however you note that . . .  seems to have already run the gauntlet of vfd though.  --Heah 19:18, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

*These articles have been nominated for deletion three times and kept three times.  In order to protect them from further nominations I believe they would each be better placed in the Wikipedia namespace.  This is not an attempt to get rid of the articles, it is an attempt to avoid another needless afd nomination.  I refuse to just move them myself because it's likely to be a controversial move, and because of the amount of people who voted to keep in the last afd nomination, rather than move. -- Francs2000 | Talk  19:12, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

message: Since most of the TLAs are actually disambiguation pages, shouldn't the links on this page point to (e.g.) AAA (disambiguation), per WP:INTDABLINK? Set theorist (talk) 08:21, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
