The result of the debate was delete. John Reaves 07:24, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This would ordinarily fall under CSD R3, but it was not recently created. The title of the redirect page begins with the letter Mu, not M, and is therefore not only highly implausible, but confusing also. Ardric47 (talk) 21:46, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep because it documents the pagemove to the new title. Note that the very fact that the article was originally created at the other title is evidence that it is not an "implausible typo". This would not be eligible under R3 even if it had been created 10 minutes ago. Rossami (talk) 22:04, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • How is it even possible to type that in the search box? Ardric47 (talk) 08:56, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • By using the same alternate keyboard that must have been used to create the article at the original location. Rossami (talk)
  • Delete. I don't think this is a plausible typo, simply because the combination of Greek and Latin letters is not something most people will do accidentally. A look at the original page creator's userpage shows that he contributes in both Greek and English, which probably explains the error on his part, but I don't think this applies to most readers of English Wikipedia.

  • Comment Is the actual greek program written with a mix of greek and latin letters? 132.205.99.122 (talk) 20:31, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete (I am a Greek speaker) - in order to type this title, one must switch to the Greek keyboard, type the first M, then switch to a Latin keyboard, and type the remainder. Like I did just here: "Μenoume Ellada". Implausible typo - this had to have been created by mistake. Reswobslc (talk) 01:19, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
