November 10[edit]

Gamecube GODSNintendo GameCube Game Disc[edit]

The nominated redirect was Kept. -- JLaTondre 14:54, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently slang or a fan-made word for "GameCube Optical Disc," but almost no web sites use this term. The article it redirects to makes no mention of the disc being acronymed as "GOD," nor does Nintendo itself. SuperDT 00:24, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Adding nomination for GameCube Optical Disc -- Renesis (talk) 17:44, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment, I would also suggest deleting GameCube Optical Disc a fan term that GOD is short for as well. That also redirects to the same target. --69.156.207.11 02:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. "GameCube Optical Disc" has very few search results, most of which are Wikipedia and mirrors, so I added it to this nomination. -- Renesis (talk) 17:44, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Why not keep GameCube Optical Disc? It has at least 100 pages linking to it. But I'm all for deleting GODS. Delete since "GameCube Optical Disc" has been removed from this deletion discussion. --Brandon Dilbeck 19:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I never nominated GameCube Optical Disc, but yeah I think we should keep GameCube Optical Disc, as that one actually makes sense. SuperDT 20:32, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry if I was out of line adding GameCube Optical Disc. To me it didn't seem like this term is really in use outside of Wikipedia. Are the pages linking to it appropriate, or should they actually be changed to the correct term ("GameCube Game Disc"?) -- Renesis (talk) 03:20, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Hey you weren't out of line, you just got a little bit ahead of yourself, which is no problem ^_^b So, I removed it, if that's ok with you? Also, it's easier to keep it as "GameCube Optical Disc" on the 100+ articles, rather than go to every single article and change it. Last, GameCube Optical Disc sounds more formal than GameCube Game Disc or GameCube GOD, in my opinion =) SuperDT 05:43, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Both GameCube Optical Disc per Brandon Dilbeck, and Gamecube GODS because the only criteria for deletion that it seems to meet would be The redirect makes no sense, and this makes at least a little sense ~ BigrTex 02:19, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Roman Graves of StenungsundStenungsund excavations[edit]

The nominated redirect was Deleted. Creator is already aware article moved (it's on his user page) and we shouldn't propagate factual errors as having the redirect implies they are Roman graves. -- JLaTondre 14:54, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Factual error made by original article creator: these aren't Roman graves, and nobody has claimed they are. Page has now been moved to more neutral title. Fut.Perf. 16:27, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. If not factual, then this is now an implausible redirect as well. -- Renesis (talk) 17:40, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The redirect serves to point the prior reader/editors to the correct title for their contributions. It will also aid future readers who would otherwise have made the same mistake. Rossami (talk) 05:06, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
