Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hnau

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect. There is disagreement over what content, if any, should be merged into The Space Trilogy, but that can be worked out at Talk:The Space Trilogy (any editor undertaking to merge any content is reminded to follow the requirements of WP:MERGE, for the sake of all of us and the GFDL).

[edit] Hnau

Hnau (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Questionable notability tag up since April, and I find it in question as well. Procedural nom, I have no opinion on the matter. Wizardman 04:15, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. No references to meet WP:N, and external link only mentions it in passing. If there's anything useful, it oughta' be merged to the sentience article or somewhere similar. --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 14:17, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

• Trim, merge, and redirect. Was going to say keep, because the content is interesting and notable, the adoption by others as a discussion term very much so (there are verifiable references), and its fictional status is adverted (which is not the case with the Urantia AFDs); but it would fit much better in the Glossary section and in a new Hnau section of Space Trilogy, and I think a mention and link at sentience is also sentient. Someone looking for "hnau" will want to start in a section of Space Trilogy itself rather than have to make it another click-- but will not be likely to want to start in sentience. The conversational passage from Lewis is redundant, of course. I would also redirect all the Old Solar words and "Old Solar" itself if they haven't already. John J.

• Merge/redirect to The Space Trilogy per John Bulten. Unlike a lot of WP:WAF, this article has some interesting and encyclopedic real world context that should be retained. Jfire (talk) 16:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete There may be small portions of this article that deserve to be merged but the primary concern should be to remove this type of article. If someone wants to save a bit of it; so be it. --Stormbay (talk) 14:42, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

• Transwiki. I rarely come across afds where there is some content I'd say is worth saving, but that this word has been adopted by other authors hints that it carries some importance - perhaps not in an encyclopedia, but rather in a dictionary. transwiki to wiktionary!

• Delete. Useful information can be transwikied or merged into The Space Trilogy. —BradV 15:38, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
