The nominated redirect was Deleted, we don't particularly need a separate article (nor redirect) to criticize intelligent design ... it already discredits itself quite nicely :-D Cyde Weys 04:55, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Since Ed hasn't been able to make POV forks, now he's making POV redirects? Please. KillerChihuahua^?!? 21:29, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• delete WP:POINT, (or if that doesn't hold, let's blatantly violate WP:POINT and make sure we get an redirect at criticism of Unificationism) — Dunc|☺ 09:15, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per above. -- ADNghiem501 02:33, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cross-namespace. It's an internal WP proposal, should not be in mainspace Fan-1967 15:02, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy delete as mistaken creation in wrong articlespace, now G6 housekeeping. The intent was to propose a new policy for the community[4], not create an article, and that part has been rectified with the page move. -- nae'blis 15:13, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  Orphaned now, except that I can't seem to get VP (all) to remove it from the cache. Visibly, though, it's orphaned. -- nae'blis 15:29, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cross-namespace redirect orphaned long ago BigDT 02:38, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Needless cross-namespace redirect. BigDT 02:22, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, {{R from shortcut}}. Kusma (討論) 05:18, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment listing pseudo-namespace redirects from WP: to Wikipedia: as cross-namespace is counterproductive. The WP: pseudo-namespace is not real when you want it and article namespace when you don't. It is intended as Wikipedia: namespace. BigNate37_T·C 16:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as misguided nom and as {{R from shortcut}}. BigNate37_T·C 16:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The nominated redirect was Barely kept, it does not as yet seem to be the time to tackle the WP: pseudo-cross-namespace-redirects, although I do question the usefulness of a redirect to a subpage that hasn't existed in months. --Cyde Weys 04:54, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Needless cross-namespace redirect as DRVU is no longer a separate page. BigDT 02:22, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep for historical reasons, old discussions will make more sense if this harmless {{R from shortcut}} exists. Kusma (討論) 05:19, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The nominated redirect was Target changed to ODP as duplicate (it already has both entries). -- JLaTondre 12:09, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As nothing is called odp, only 'ODP, this should be removed so searching for odp sends one to ODP (dab page) instead of a particular article for something called ODP Joe Llywelyn Griffith Blakesley _{talk contrib} 01:02, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
