[edit] Physical Sciences
This article is about the Physical Sciences School of Jawaharlal Nehru University, not about 'Physical Sciences'. There is already an article called "Physical science" and a redirect "Physical sciences" (note capitalization). It also appears to be partly a vanity article as its main contents are a list of the faculty members Ozhiker 18:06, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- The problems with this article can be solved by first renaming it to Jawaharlal Nehru University School of Physical Sciences (adjusting the resultant redirect) and then merging it into Jawaharlal Nehru University#Schools. No deletion is required, and any editor with an account has the tools to do this. Uncle G 18:37, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- Admin action is needed, in that there should not be anything left at "Physical Sciences" when we're done. I agree that Uncle G's solution is probably best. "Rename" to Jawaharial Nehru University School of Physical Sciences, delete the automatically generated redirect, and then merge. As there's an admin action in there, it's still in scope for AfD. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 19:18, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- The redirect shouldn't be deleted. After the move and the merge, "Physical Sciences" should be redirected to "Physical science" instead of to "Jawaharial Nehru University School of Physical Sciences." I think this is what Uncle G was suggesting. Pan Dan 21:10, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- The redirect from "Physical Sciences" should be deleted and redirected to Physical science (with {{R from capitalisation}} and {{R from plural}} tags), IMHO. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 21:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- No administrator privileges are required in order to edit a redirect. Even editors without accounts can do that. Uncle G 23:53, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

- Move to Jawaharial Nehru University School of Physical Sciences and redierct Physical Sciences to Physical science.150.203.177.218 05:18, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
- Moved to Jawaharlal Nehru University School of Physical Sciences as recommended. Redirect retargeted (though I'm still seeing the old result, possibly due to the actions of this AfD's templates?). I'll leave the merge of the school page to the university page, if deemed necessary, to others. Serpent's Choice 07:16, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
