Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Arslan

This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was delete content, redirect/disambig (I'm regarding redirect and disambig as essentially the same thought here, since a disambig is really just multiple redirects on the same page). Scimitar ^parley 19:20, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Arslan

I'm marking this VfD because I'm pretty sure it's a "vanity term", meaning it's a word invented based on someone the author knows personally. It is not a notable term and references a specific person. (preceding unsigned comment by Mipadi 08:09, July 3, 2005 (UTC))

• Delete neologism. JamesBurns 09:28, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• DELETE and REDIRECT to The Heroic Legend of Arslan. 67.68.64.81 09:53, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect per 67.68.64.81, even though his conflicting vote is the standard example. -Harmil 11:29, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• No, "delete and redirect" is for once correct. The contents of this article should have been speed-deleted, and a redirect to a relevant article should then have been created. No license infringement involved, see? - Mustafaa 13:04, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• If I am not mistaken, Arslan is Turkish for "lion". There are a few people and a few places with Arslan as part of their name. Wouldn't a disambiguation page be appropriate? Redirecting to a modern fantasy novel seems like a case of systemic bias. Uppland 16:23, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

• Oh, good point - I should have checked the link. In that case, delete and disambig. - Mustafaa 18:19, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
