I accidentally moved the page once and moved it again. The former automatically became a redirect. I'm the author of the article. Estarapapax ^Estarapapax! 10:05, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

• Speedy delete as both an author request (CSD G7) and a recently created implausible typo (CSD R3). I have tagged it. — Gavia immer (talk) 16:29, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Implausible redirect Spartaz ^Humbug! 08:05, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, agreed. Powers ^T 18:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
• Keep. Redirects are cheap. This one has been there for two years, has bothered no one, and may have helped some. Nominating the redirect just now, because I have mentioned it in a similar deletion review, is slightly uncalled for in my humble opinion. --Edcolins (talk) 19:52, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
• I agree with the nominator. seresin | wasn't he just...? 00:05, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - I also agree with the nom. Lara❤Love 06:32, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 04:14, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (trademarks) which states these symbols are to be avoided. -- JLaTondre (talk) 02:17, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Kevlar® → Kevlar

The result of the debate was delete. John Reaves 08:43, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Implausible search term. Spartaz ^Humbug! 08:05, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, agreed. Powers ^T 18:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
• Keep. Besides what I wrote re Wikipedia®, the history of this redirect indicates that the article Kevlar was created in 2004 with the title Kevlar®. This indicates that someone searched for Kevlar®, before creating it. Not implausible search term thus, like any other redirects ending with "®". --Edcolins (talk) 19:58, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
• I agree with the nominator. seresin | wasn't he just...? 00:05, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
• Delete - I also agree with the nom. Lara❤Love 06:32, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete agreed with nom. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 04:50, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (trademarks) which states these symbols are to be avoided. -- JLaTondre (talk) 02:17, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep The fact that the original article had a registered trademark means that older users may still try to find it there. It justifies this break from Wikiprotocol in this instance.--Encyclopedia Mike (talk) 03:05, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
