The result of the debate was redirect to Honda. —Korath (Talk) 14:05, Apr 11, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Honda Motor Co., Ltd.

Honda provides sufficient corporate info. Even if it doesn't, we can just merge these two. Two separate pages is really not necessary...

• Delete - Like I stated above... WB 00:44, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete I agree with your reasons. --Anonymous Cow 02:21, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - concur --ZayZayEM 02:38, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect--I agree, no reason not to merge. Meelar (talk) 02:39, Apr 4, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Honda. WB: Next time, for situations like this one, you might want to first merge the two articles, and then consider posting the resulting redirect page on RFD. This "bypass" method reduces the load on the VFD pages. Zzyzx11 02:42, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect -- Infrogmation 04:15, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, fork. Megan1967 07:15, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to discourage re-creation - David Gerard 09:20, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect. May I refer to the text in the yellow box on WP:R: "Redirects are cheap, fun and easier than votes for deletion!". Since no content will be lost by converting this to a redirect, I do not think this nomination was truly neccesary. Now we need to wait until the lag time runs out. Sjakkalle 10:40, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect - some may look it up by this name. -- 8^D ^gab 13:23, 2005 Apr 4 (UTC)
• Redirect for good reasons noted by others. Do we need to wait for the end of VfD to do it? Dpbsmith (talk) 18:27, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect for the reasons above. SteveW 21:13, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect --Fuzzball! 22:13, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Comment: I certainly did not know about what I should be doing... But do you honestly think anyone would look up Honda Motor Co., Ltd. instead of Honda, Honda car, or whatever? At least not by the hand. There are only three pages linking to it, all three from this VfD page. Merging isn't really necessary either. There's is almost no content in Honda Motor Co., Ltd.. Anyway, I'll make sure I consider Redirect or Merge -- WB 02:24, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
  • With that punctuation, it is rather unlikely that anyone should look it up like that. But a redirect won't hurt performance, so unless it's ridiculous (e.g. "worst car ever" -> "honda") I have no problem with that. Radiant_* 07:19, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
    • Honestly, I can see it happening - imagine someone comes across this company name while googling, then decides to copy and paste the whole thing into the Wiki search window to find out more about it... -- 8^D ^gab 15:53, 2005 Apr 5 (UTC)
      • Probable, but very unlikely. Redirect is fine. So when is it going to done? lol -- WB 00:00, Apr 6, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as an obvious advertisement. — JIP | Talk 09:16, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • How is this an advertisement? It might be, but it seems like a normal company info page so far. WB 23:53, Apr 6, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect --Wgfinley 20:35, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
