March 5[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion on March 5, 2008

STS-999 → Space Shuttle[edit]

The result of the debate was Deleted. -- JLaTondre (talk) 00:48, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:POINT. I gave this as an example of the potentially ridiculous conclusion of an counterargument made to this RFD, and the user who put up that argument appears to have now created such a redirect. GW_Simulations_{User Page | Talk} 18:21, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This seems completely unnecessary. Carom (talk) 20:31, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, same principle as 3.141592653589793... <eleland/talkedits> 07:52, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.

Ǝ → Ə[edit]

The result of the debate was Kept. Target article refers to Ǝ character so valid search term. If there is an alternate use also, then this can be converted to a disambig. -- JLaTondre (talk) 00:41, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ǝ has nothing to do with Ə. The former is a letter of the Pan-Nigerian alphabet and used in various African alphabets, while the latter is common to Turkic languages. -- Prince Kassad (talk) 15:55, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This character is U+018E in Unicode. It is defined as the latin capital letter reversed E, according to [1]. If this is not related to Ə, then it should have its own article. In any case, it should exist as a redirect or article. --- RockMFR 04:05, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ryan Byun → PRO[edit]

The result of the debate was speedy deleted. --- RockMFR 04:07, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nonsense redirect. Created as an attack redirect to Newbie, changed to Pro (by Ryan himself, presumably). Closedmouth (talk) 07:13, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Wow, I just checked the creator's contribs, and they've created a whole bunch of these. Don't really know what to do about that. --Closedmouth (talk) 07:21, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That's what {{db-redirtypo}}—and, in extreme cases {{db-attack}}—are there for. --Russ (talk) 20:55, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, I didn't think they would qualify for "recently created". --Closedmouth (talk) 01:49, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
