[edit] Diphendryamine

The page title appears to be a misspelling of Diphenhydramine. Uthbrian 11:55, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

• Agreed. This has happened elsewhere, too: this page suggests taking "Diphendryamine/Benadryl" for widespread rashes—the Diphenhydramine article lists Benadryl^® as one of its trade names. Other Google hits are mirrors of it or Wikipedia. I would vote on delete. –Mysid 12:12, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. PJM 12:23, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
• Just redirect. --Apostrophe 17:37, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
• When someone has not only made a mis-spelling but has been so convinced of that mis-spelling that they go to the length of making a real article on the subject, we Merge and Redirect the article with the mis-spelled title, because if it happens once, it will no doubt happen again. Better that people who spell incorrectly go to the correct article than that we continually have to bring such articles to AFD.
