Same as above. Punchline to a lame old pun, unlikely search term. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 02:26, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

- Cole's law → Coleslaw (links to redirect • history • stats)
Unlikely redirect term, punchline to a hoary old pun. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 02:26, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
- Delete, potentially misleading with no discernible value. Glenfarclas (talk) 10:01, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- This has been through the create-redirect-nominate-for-deletion cycle once already. This is its second time. This redirect thus seems to be fulfilling a fairly good prophylactic purpose by existing: namely, stopping us going around and around this same cycle yet more times, which would undoubtedly happen in the future if it were deleted, given that that has already happened. Keep. Uncle G (talk) 16:13, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- Keep because, as Uncle G says, it's easier to maintain (and watchlist) a redirect than to watch for and continuously speedy-delete the inappropriate article that otherwise gets created here. Rossami (talk) 21:32, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- That's not a reason to keep a redirect. That's why we have salt protection. Mhiji 14:01, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

This redirect has "curly quotes", which are not possible to type on most systems. Quotes are not even needed anyway. — This, that, and the other (talk) 00:22, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
