[edit] Pimlico_sound
A non-article, not linked to, and the place is actually called Pamlico Sound (which does have an article).--Keith Edkins 23:05, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect--often, we'll redirect articles that are plausible misspellings, to make things easier and decrease the load on Afd. Meelar (talk) 23:17, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect as misspelling. Andrew pmk | Talk 23:43, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect - though it's a pretty humorous misspelling originated from the NHC and spread by The Weather Channel according to a comment on Talk:2005 Atlantic hurricane season. I doubt it'll become anything major. AySz88^-^ 03:09, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

- Point of interest: the article was there before the NHC product. --Mm35173 05:17, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
- Strong delete. Pimlico sound is not only misspelled, but also miscapitalized. Sound is part of the proper noun, either way. Would we set up redirects for Misissippi river, Missisippi river, Mississipi river, or Massissippi river? It's not even a homonym for the correct title. I know redirects are cheap, but come on, draw the line.--Mm35173 04:53, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, per Mm35173, there's no need to clutter up the database with a useless article. -- E. Brown, Hurricane enthusiast - Squawk Box 21:31, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect as a plausible mispelling. --Goobergunch|? 21:41, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
Point of interest: see Wikipedia:Redirects_for_deletion/Precedents - should this become a redirect, it would be an excellent candidate for deletion anyway, becuase it certainly follows the "extremely rare typo" precedent. --Mm35173 19:52, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
