The result was delete. Redirect not needed- the software automatically redirects as long as mixed capitalisation isn't involved. Typing "Wheatstone Bridge" into the search box and pressing GO will lead to the article on "Wheatstone bridge" once this article is deleted. WjBscribe 02:41, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This entry fails the Wikipedia:Notability (music) standards. Bricology 17:52, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete notability not demonstrated and I can find no sources on news searches or AMG. Also the current article looks like a copyright violation, but I can't find the source. --W.marsh 18:00, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. Bands which have names at all confusable with real-world things should always have (Band) in the name, as in Wheatstone Bridge (Band). There is an important electrical circuit called a Wheatstone bridge. No one looking for information about it should have to see an article about some obscure band. This should be an automatic practice: see a band, rename it with (Band) in the title. Edison 18:02, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- If we delete it, I think people who type in "Wheatstone Bridge" will get sent to "Wheatstone bridge" anyway. Not 100% sure but I don't think caps-based redirects are really needed. --W.marsh 18:12, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- 'fraid you're wrong there, W.Marsh - WP is case-sensitive. Redirect as per HSR. Grutness...wha? 02:07, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- The "go" button isn't... I just typed in "gEoRgE bUsH" and got sent where one would expect, so I was right. You meant that gEoRgE bUsH won't work as a link... and I understand that it doesn't. This is why we get so many duplicate articles with incorrect capitalization... --W.marsh 12:52, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per nom fails Wikipedia:Notability (music) and per W.marsh a redirect is not needed.--Dakota 19:06, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect. There's scores of redirects for capitalization mistakes. They are particularly useful if someone heads for an article using the URL rather than the search box and it's been common practice for quite some time. Grutness is quite right. - Mgm|(talk) 08:20, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Original article author here. I am in process of rewriting the original article for resubmission in an existing Wiki I was recently made aware of. I am also in process of writing a Wiki regarding Dr. Wheatstone and his circuit. =) **** —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.140.172.224 (talk) 20:14, 17 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]
