The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to Google+. Usually, the edit history of a redirected article doesn't need to be deleted unless there is a specific reason for doing so. ~~I have added a hat note at Google+ and a hat note at g++ too, just for good measure~~. v/r (non-admin closure) Michaelzeng7 (talk) 02:58, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Basically this is a WP:TWODABS situation. Although Plus (TV channel) used to use that name ("G+") in the past, the channel stop existing ten years ago. I doubt that someone searching for "G+" is looking for the British-only channel. Therefore "G+" now refers to Google+ and it is what readers are searching. I propose the deletion of the disambiguation page, redirect "G+" to "Google+", and add there the hatnote {{for}}. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 02:47, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and redirect. This proposal is strange, in that I think this is what it is proposing. If Google+ is now the primary topic for "G+" (and that seems plausible to me, yep), then the page G+ does not need to be deleted, but rather edited to become a redirect to Google+. This will preserve the edit history. Then hatnote Google+, as proposed. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:40, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and redirect and hatnote Google+. This really shouldn't have been made as a deletion discussion, but since it's already here, we may as well keep going. Novusuna ^talk 21:21, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - should there be any mention of g++ (a redirect)? Chris857 (talk) 00:56, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
