Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Slyder

This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was KEEP (as a redirect). Note that redirect deletion requests belong on WP:RFD really rather than here. However, given the withdrawn nomination and unanimous voting, I see no need to generate bureaucracy by taking it there. WP:NOT#Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy. -Splash 03:48, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Slyder

The only thing that links to this page is Grand Theft Auto III soundtrack, and I don't know why it redirects to White Castle. As this article holds no signifigance (the group does not exist, and it would otherwise be an orphaned article, I sugguest it be deleted. mysekurity 05:04, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

• Change to Keep Thatdog convinced me. A Slyder is an item on the White Castle restaurant menu. Not as tasty as a farm fresh hamster either. Hamster Sandwich 06:29, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. "Slyder" burgers are White Castle's primary offering, a fact mentioned several times in White Castle (restaurant). This redirect seems valid. - Thatdog 08:06, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

• Comment BTW, it is often considered bad form to link to a redirect, so the fact that a redirect is an orphan should not be held against it.  :) - Thatdog 08:10, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

• Keep If there is no slyder article, then there must be a redirect. --Mac Davis 17:48, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
• Change to keep. Fair enough, its a shame we can't see how many times this page has been accessed. Thatdog is right about linking to a redirect, but I would be interested to see how many pages pipe the text "slyder" to the restaraunt. Perhaps something could be written about the Slyders themselves in a header? Or maybe not. Thanks for voting anyway, -mysekurity 18:06, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
  • (Of the pages that link to the redirect target, only one contains the word "slyder" and that is unlinked. There are currently no pages linking to this article. So the answer to your question would appear to be "zero".)-Splash 03:48, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
