Redundant page. Should be deleted in favor of using (1) common sense, (2) WP:BOLD, and (3) the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling page. Does noting more than serve as inspiration for people to propose frequent unnecessary moves. -- GaryColemanFan (talk) 22:39, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
- Note: Redirecting the page makes sense per SmokeyJoe's explanation. My intention was not to place any value judgment on people who contributed to this page (myself included). GaryColemanFan (talk) 19:33, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
DeleteRedirect - I was going to do the same thing, I proposed to delete it twice at WT:PW, I agree with all three of your reasoning's.--SRX 22:40, 28 October 2008 (UTC)- Delete - per reasoning above. No need for extra page. Nikki311 02:39, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling. In project space, we don't delete bad ideas, we instead archive or redirect, to avoid the repetition of history, and to preserve the history without making value judgements on the contributors who worked at that page. Don't delete because it is/was a bad idea, but redirect because the target is a better idea. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:06, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect or Merge to/with Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling.--WillC 03:21, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to project talk page. Having a specific page causes an unnecessary focus on doing renames. Mayalld (talk) 07:14, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- Note: - can anybody redirect it or do we have to wait for someone more experienced with MfD to do it?--SRX 23:12, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
- There's a clear consensus here. Regulars on the page and the nominator agrees. Anyone can redirect it. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:05, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- I redirected it, so I guess this could be closed.--SRX 00:23, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
