[edit] New_zeland

Unnecessary, profane, speedy deletion

  • A redirect profane? Unless of course you didn't mean New_zealand but New_zeland. Speediest delete. Chris 01:09, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect New Zealand. Niteowlneils 01:49, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect. Common misspelling. android↔talk 03:28, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect. Agree this is likely a common misspelling. Jonathunder 05:02, 2005 Mar 18 (UTC)
  • Someone has redirected it now. Mgm|(talk) 09:27, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • I should hope it's not a common misspeling, becaus that wold maek me shuddre abuot the wolrd's ecudation. Nevertheless, delete and replace with redirect. Radiant_* 09:35, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Oh come off it. Iff there was a redirect from Yankee land to United States, would it be allowed to stay? Most probably. It's now an issue for WP:RFD, and I say that it's not doing any harm, so it should be kept. Alphax τεχ 15:44, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
    • You'd have to have a pretty funky keyboard layout to mistype United States as Yankee land. Dvorak, maybe? :o) android↔talk 16:04, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
      • Hey, I was allowing it to stay! Bad spellers of the world UNTIE! Radiant_* 16:17, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
      • Redirect. JuntungWu 06:48, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect -- to New Zealand. Common misspelling. Not everyone is a spelling genius. Wikipedia must be usable by all, even those who can't spell, if it expects mainstream success. - Longhair | Talk 13:02, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
