The result of the debate was No consensus. However, as the split was between delete completely and redirect without merging, I will make a redirect myself. · Katefan0^(scribble) 04:31, September 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Drug therapy

Contains nothing but illogical dietary advice for pregnant women; has nothing to do with drug therapy. 148.78.243.51 00:18, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

• At the moment, this is worthy of deletion. As there are a couple of articles link to this and there could be potential for an encyclopedia article on this topic, I would vote to keep a decent stub on this topic. Capitalistroadster 01:47, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unless this can be cleaned up. I agree with Capitalistroadster that this could be an encyclopedic topic, but should not be kept in its present state. Jaxl | talk 02:00, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete: Capitalroadster has made some amazing saves in the past, but I think efforts here would be useless. The topic is far, far too broad, as it equates to, essentially, "Medicine." Perhaps a redirect without merge to Medicine or Pharmacology would be ok, but anything else would be duplicate material. Geogre 03:35, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unless rewritten, although I'm not as pessimistic as Geogre about the odds on that. Meelar (talk) 06:26, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete currently article and turn into a redirect to Pharmacology as suggested above. - Mgm|^(talk) 08:03, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Agree with reasons given above. Amren ^(talk) 16:32, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
• Hi there. "Drug therapy" is not just encyclopedic, properly done it's an encyclopedia. Geogre is absolutely right. However, I think the page may serve as a useful redirect, so I'm voting for that. Of the possible articles to which this can be redirected, the most appropriate is Pharmacology. Drug concerns not just substances used therapeutically, but for other purposes as well; Therapeutics is a redirect (to Medicine), and Medicine of course concerns all sorts of things aside from pharmacotherapy. My vote: blank contents and redirect to Pharmacology.—encephalon^{έγκέφαλος}  18:48:58, 2005-09-05 (UTC)
• Rewrite/keep It could be useful if rewritten. However, the current state seems terrible... -- WB 21:15, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to pharmacology sounds sensible. Flowerparty 07:51, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to an article that actually covers the topic of drug therapy. Pharmacology sounds like a good one to me, too. --Icarus 23:04, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect without merging. As per nominator. / Peter ^Isotalo 12:53, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
