[edit] Mr. Freddie Orange
This afd nomination was incomplete. Listing now. —Crypticbot (operator) 12:36, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Reservoir Dogs (the article only names a part in that film and the actor who played it). BrianSmithson 14:17, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete because this is a neoligistic combination of "Mr. Orange" (the name Joe Cabot gave him) and his apparent first name in the film, "Freddie" (with no given last name). At no time was the character ever referred to in the film as "Freddie Orange".--Isotope23 18:53, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

- Delete per Isotope23. -- Captain Disdain 03:18, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Resevoir Dogs to deter recreation by anyone else, if for no other reason. It's quite likely that some searched using this "neologistic" term, couldn't find what s/he was looking for, and started an article. It doesn't matter to the user if it the term was never exactly used in the movie. And redirects are cheap. Jacqui ★ 04:06, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Resevoir Dogs agree with Jacqui. --kernunrex 20:53, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Let me further point out that the article is named Mr. Freddie Orange. Even if someone were to use that as a search term, which I find rather unlikely, if we keep this, we might as well create new articles for every person already listed in Wikipedia with "Mr." added in front of them and slap in redirects. Say, Mr. Tom Cruise, Mr. George W. Bush, Mr. Britney Spears... Well, okay, you got me on that last one. Guess we wouldn't do that. But you get the point. It just gets to be way too obscure. It's true that redirects are cheap, but there's cheap and there's silly. -- Captain Disdain 09:28, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
