[edit] DiscussionBoard

Non-notable internet forum software. Talrias (t | e | c) 19:36, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

I must say I would find that a most unhelpful redirect. Why redirect it in this fashion? Talrias (t | e | c) 12:50, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Because it's a valid alternate name for Internet forum, just without a space and with one capital letter at the beginning of a word. Redirect per above. --Apostrophe 05:43, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
It used to be a redirect like this in the past, which led to questions such as "Every software on Comparison of Internet forum software points to a page except DiscussionBoard. Why?" Do you have a solution to this? Talrias (t | e | c) 13:39, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
Remove the redlinks and rdirects from that article. Easy. --Apostrophe 16:49, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

This AfD is being relisted to generate a clearer consensus. Please add new discussion below this notice. Thanks! Mo0[talk] 07:41, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep, gets 283,000 google hits. Kappa 08:13, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
I think you'll find that the hits are for discussion boards in general rather than this bit of software. Talrias (t | e | c) 16:00, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
OK, looking a bit more closely you seem to be right. Kappa 16:05, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
