The result of the discussion was delete. JohnCD (talk) 12:00, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion. Clearly no authoritative source refers to Pakistan by Porkistan, nor would the two terms conceivably be mistaken for each other. This redirect was almost definitely meant to be an immature insult, thereby reducing the quality of Wikipedia content. . 207.237.227.188 (talk) 04:06, 31 March 2010 (UTC) Also, please note the peak of 34 hits on March 9 was caused because I twice tried blanking the page (I did not know Wikipedia procedures and apologize for that). These were almost definitely not "genuine" visits to the page from people intending to read the Pakistan article. The main article receives approximately 12-14K hits per day.[reply]

  • Delete, appears to be an insult/attack, and I can't find any evidence that this might be used legitimately as a mistaken search term for Pakistan.  Glenfarclas  (talk) 04:30, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, not a legitimate search term. Grondemar 11:48, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I wouldn't object to a WP:CSD#G10 speedy of this as nothing more than an insult. Thryduulf (talk) 12:16, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - while it is clear that this is inflammatory, the 51,000+ Google hits puts this on the same level as such "internet memes" as "Dr. Octagonapus" and "Raptor Jesus". None of these should have redirects in Wikipedia. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 16:24, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
