Citizenship in the World Merit Badge[edit]

It's not clear what this article is about. It's ungrammatical. Nothing links to it. Bcrowell 01:42, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List_of_merit_badges_in_the_Boy_Scouts_of_America -- the lack of context makes it a candidate for CSD/A1, but a redirect may also be appropriate. Adrian~enwiki (talk) 02:03, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ as nonsense. Same user authored Citizenship in the World Merit Badge Merit Badge, which I just put in the prod queue. --Lockley 02:04, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Jonel has worked on it, in context it now makes sense, keep or redirect. Cheers Jonel. --Lockley 05:13, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Lockley --Ruby 02:15, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete half baked original research. Go back to drawing board 201.121.165.129 03:44, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Merit badge (Boy Scouts of America) (note - this is where the page Adrian mentions itself redirects). ~~Both are~~ This is an actual merit badges awarded by the Boy Scouts of America. While certainly not deserving of an articles of ~~their~~ its own, it is certainly conceivable that someone might look for ~~them~~ it here. -- Jonel | Speak 03:54, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Edited upon realizing the "other one" was not Citizenship in the Nation Merit Badge as I somehow misread it, but really just a mangling of duplicating the Citizenship in the World Merit Badge. Support the prod-ing of the meritbadgemeritbadge. -- Jonel | Speak 04:13, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Note - following my comment above, I cleaned the article to give some context and grammar. Still think it's undeserving of separate article and continue my recommendation of redirect. -- Jonel | Speak 03:59, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect is fine with me. I'm not quite clear on how it can have text and still be a redirect, but I'm happy with any solution that doesn't just leave it as a dysfunctional, unintelligible article, which it no longer is.--Bcrowell 04:38, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My text is meant to be temporary, just to let people at this AfD know what the context is. I expect it to go *poof* as the article is redirected. -- Jonel | Speak 05:31, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching that redirect, User:Jonel :) Adrian~enwiki (talk) 06:09, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Redirected to Merit badge (Boy Scouts of America) -- if anyone has a problem with this, or a better idea, please let me know :) . Adrian~enwiki (talk) 06:12, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I might have waited more than 5 hours from the original nom before removing the AfD notice, but seems to be harmless in this case. Turnstep 00:02, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - I call 'em as I see 'em, and I couldn't see it being controversial on this one. If it seemed otherwise, I woulda proposed it first. Thanks for the feedback tho :) — Adrian~enwiki (talk) 04:42, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    - No problem. :) I'm perfectly happy to support this redirect, for the record. Turnstep 04:04, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
