Non-notable colour. Some ghits mention it in passing when describing the colour of another subject but no in-depth discussion of pink-orange which would establish notability. bobrayner (talk) 19:07, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete. No substantive content -- this article does not say anything that one could not already infer from its own title. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:10, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete – the entire article contents is "Pink orange is a mix of the colors pink and orange." And even that's unsourced. Dicklyon (talk) 06:05, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete No notability, Wikipedia is not a dictionary: either of those would have been sufficient reason for deletion. In fact in my opinion it qualifies for speedy deletion under criterion A3: "Any article ... consisting only of external links, category tags and "see also" sections, a rephrasing of the title, ... (etc)", as there really is practically nothing more than "a rephrasing of the title". JamesBWatson (talk) 14:00, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete all. Color names are chosen arbitrarily, subjective, and different at each paint manufacturer. There is no standard on what each color should be named. Moreover, some of these color articles have no content other than a weak dicdef (WP:NOTDIC). As for the X11 colors, the listing at X11 color names is more than enough and really all you can write about it. The articles on the primary colors could have a list of common names of some shades of that color. What's next, an article for each Pantone code? -- P 1 9 9 • TALK 13:55, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not sourced and not notable. Now please wait while I mix "amber" and "mahogany" to create a new color. We're not a dictionary, and we're not a color manual. Let's keep the hordes of colors at List of colors.--Slon02 (talk) 17:36, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
