[edit] Lithium dibromide

I am the creator of this page and I am uncertain whether this page belongs on Wikipedia, whether it deserves a merge, or deletion. I have created this deletion page so that other Wikipedians could evaluate this page. --GoOdCoNtEnT 15:21, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete and redirect to the relevant episode of the simpsons. I don't think this compound is possible, or at least the nomenclature is flawed because it would probably be ionic. But I'm certainly no chemist. AdamBiswanger1 16:19, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment read the article more carefully, i have mentioned the fact that this compound is impossible but still is mentioned in The Simpsons. --GoOdCoNtEnT 16:48, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
  • I figured. If you want, you can have the page speedied under Criterion for speedy deletion G7, so long as you created it as an accident or there was a misunderstanding about the nature of wikipedia. AdamBiswanger18:17, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
  • I do not want the page to be speedy deleted. I want it to be evaluated by other Wikipedians and I want them all to decide what to do with it. --GoOdCoNtEnT 19:01, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - no need to provide articles for every detail of the Simpsons. -- Whpq 16:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to the trivia section of Midnight Rx. As a stand alone, a gag from a show is absolutely out, especially one that would be trivia for that episode. As a trivia entry for the episode, it's probably ok. Geogre 19:05, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to source episode. It's a useful addition to the compilations of fictional medicines and fictional chemical substances, so I wouldn't want it to be lost entirely. --Pagana 19:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to source episode. It is an interesting analysis of the use of humour in the Simpsons and therefore belongs as part of the episode summary, but not as an article in its own right Adam Slack 20:02, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to source episode, per above. --Bigtop (tk|cb|em|ea) 22:35, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I think it should be kept because there is enough information for a decent sized article and because there's a good chance that someone might want to look it up and find out what it is, and there's a better chance of them finding what they are looking for if it has it's own article.
• Delete: this is a fictional chemical mentioned in one episode of a cartoon - not notable enough for this encyclopaedia. Have merged Lithium bromide and Lithium carbonate parts + refs in with appropriate articles. Stephen B Streater 22:41, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment If you are the author, you may tag the page with {{db-author}} or {{db|reason}} cheers —Minun ^Spiderman 12:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Apology, I seemed to have not read your message, so lets go with Merge per above —Minun ^Spiderman 12:46, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, after merging the content. --Guinnog 21:00, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
