[edit] Acat
Redirect to Maya mythology: a dicdef of a non-notable acronym used in the U.S. Department of Defense procurement system. --Russ Blau (talk) 15:26, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. DV8 2XL 15:58, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
- Redirects do not need to come to VfD. You can just do them without asking (aka being WP:BOLD) usually. -Splash 23:46, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
- It's not a redirect, it's a dicdef. Russ Blau wants it to be a redirect, same as the other two nominated dicdefs. -Sean Curtin 01:38, September 1, 2005 (UTC)
- Someone else made the same type of comment on my User Talk page. If that's the way it works, OK, but it seems weird to me that it takes a nomination here to delete an article, but no nomination to do exactly the same thing when a redirect to an entirely unrelated subject is "left behind." --Russ Blau (talk) 15:49, September 2, 2005 (UTC)

- Disambiguation page needed here. Proto t c 11:08, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
- Are you suggesting that (a) a disambiguation page is needed because the content now on Acat should be kept; or (b) the content now on Acat should be moved to a different page so that we can then have a separate deletion nomination on it? (Same question applies to the other two articles on which you made this comment.) --Russ Blau (talk) 15:49, September 2, 2005 (UTC)
