[edit] Lonestarr

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

Only a slightly expanded version of the character's subsection in Team Tejas. Since there was little interest in merging Trinity (Team Tejas) after the AfD in February, this and the near-identical articles on the individual members can go. DarkAudit (talk) 19:55, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. Content has been merged to main article by me. No need for redirect. SynergeticMaggot (talk) 03:25, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
• Keep, Wikipedia is not paper. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia incorporating elements of general encyclopedias, specialized encyclopedias, and almanacs.[1] An encyclopedia about Hispanic superheroes would have an article on Lonetarr. At the very least merge it into Team Tejas and turn it into a redirect. --Pixelface (talk) 08:39, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

• This isn't an issue which needs to be debated at AFD. I see no evidence as to the nominator actually attempting the merge or redirect. Since such edits cannot be undertaken whilst an afd is in process, I ask the nominator if they are prepared to withdraw the nomination so a merge and redirect can be undertaken. It is counter to policy to delete information which is useful. The issue here seems to be that nobody has merged the article as yet. AFD is not the tool to fix that issue with, a merge and redirect is. Hiding T 09:06, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
  • No. What is already in the main article is sufficient. The individual characters have no notability outside the main Team Tejas article, so no redirect is truly necessary. DarkAudit (talk) 17:43, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
    • No, redirects are free and we always redirect useful search terms. Besides which, it's only your opinion that what's there will suffice. Last time I checked this was a collaboration. It would be nice if we could collaborate. Hiding T 21:58, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
