[edit] McClatchy Interactive

Delete, since the mention of this subdivision in The McClatchy Company seems more than enough. As it stands, the subdivision page is both of substub quality, and borders on vanity (if you consider it on its own and not as a subdivision) to my taste. BACbKA 14:43, 26 December 2005 (UTC)


This AfD is being relisted to generate a clearer consensus. Please add new discussion below this notice. Thanks! Mo0[talk] 04:59, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete superfluous, per above Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 21:19, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to The McClatchy Company. Doesn't need it's own article, but should be redirected not deleted as it will discourage recreation and allow people to find parent company when looking by this name. -- JLaTondre 18:43, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
When searching by name, the article will show up anyway. There will not be a flood of hits btw ;-) As for the recreation, an ignorant user will still be able come up with a creative spelling you miss anyway, w/o researching about the parent article (capitalisation variations, Company vs Co., or smth else...) --BACbKA 15:28, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
P.S. And, since it is a vanity and self-promo, I predict that recreation will not happen by non-affiliated parties. --BACbKA 15:32, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirects are cheap. Your last statement is exactly why I mentioned "discourage recreation". -- JLaTondre 18:07, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
