  • I was bold and merged the content into Microsoft Powerpoint, where it worked quite well with existing content on Powerpoint criticism... as well as editing that section there, people here should feel free to redirect or delete the AfD as they feel appropriate.

    • Such a merge completely invalidates any delete votes already made here, as the article must now be redirected to comply with the GFDL. Please do not perform any such merges during an ongoing AFD in the future. android79 22:24, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
      • It should be clearer that you shouldn't merge or redirect while a nomination is still open. I've seen several admins and veteran users do it. Can this be added to the AfD notice? There's a link on it already, but apparently it's not enough. -- Kjkolb 02:15, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
        • It used to explicitly warn against moving or merging. I don't know when/why that was removed from the template. android79 05:00, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge anything retainable and redirect per GFDL needs. - Mgm|(talk) 08:52, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
