  • Speedy Delete - Appears to be no new information. Tiddly-Tom 19:24, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Can the article on Lee Smith (rugby league footballer) be merged in here. Short titles are better than long ones and there should be a redirect so that the same thing doesn't happen again. Capitalistroadster 02:42, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment That seems to be a better idea than deletion, actually. The Lee Smith (rugby league footballer) article has more information, but i believe that this is a better page name.Julianhall 14:03, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment so copy the information across, and create a re direct with the other page? Make sure, when copied across, any links to the old page are directed this this one instead. Tiddly-Tom 17:21, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment That definitely seems the best course of action. There are a lot of pages that link to the page that a re-direct would be going on, and i don't understand how to amend some of these. They're all contained within a "squad box" (you can see this on the Lee Smith (rugby league footballer) page for example), which i don't know how to edit.Julianhall 10:17, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
That should not be a problem, you can edit it here Tiddly-Tom 17:31, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Done, thanks for your help. I've deleted the AfD box from the page, but will leave this open until my changes have been looked at. Cheers.Julianhall 23:12, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
