Requested move[edit]

Alpha and Omega (disambiguation) → Alpha and Omega … Rationale: There a are a number of other uses of "Alpha and Omega." The current title redirects to the Christianity one. It should instead point to the dab page so readers can decide where to go instead of forcing them to go to two pages (first to the Christianity one, then to the actual dab page) … Please share your opinion at Talk:Alpha and Omega (disambiguation). —Hbdragon88 02:07, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The religious meaning is by far the most common and notable one.--Pharos 08:54, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alpha and Omega meanings[edit]

Sorry I didn't see this in time to participate in the poll (or whatever it was), but the Christian meaning is the historically primary one, and probably still the most frequently-encountered single meaning of the phrase. AnonMoos 21:50, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, okay, but if that's so then I think that Alpha and Omega (Christianity) should be moved to the regular Alpha and Omega, instead of just redirecting to it. Hbdragon88 05:24, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was the way it originally was (before someone came along and felt the necessity to "improve" things), but it doesn't really make too much difference... AnonMoos 14:22, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
