  • Keep or merge into Light crude oil; it seems like the articles could benefit from being able to compare the two terms without having gobs of redundancy. —HorsePunchKid→龜 2005-12-03 06:14:52Z
  • It's an encyclopaedia article about heavy crude oil, not a dictionary article about the phrase "heavy crude oil". The latter wouldn't satisfy the Wiktionary inclusion criteria anyway, because it is not idiomatic. It is a simple combination of heavy and crude oil. Uncle G 06:22, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Seems pretty idomatic to me, who would guess that "heavy" in this phrase means "does not flow easily". Kappa 02:40, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and rename it to Heavy oil (over 500,000 Google hits). There are lots of issues on refining it too. User:Ejrrjs says What? 08:57, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
  • The nominator decides this might be worth Keeping after all. Peyna 14:10, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect this and Light crude oil to crude oil'. The provide little additional context and are better covered in its entire context. - Mgm|(talk) 17:01, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep; it's a distinct type of oil. *Dan T.* 02:46, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
