I'm confused[edit]

I converted the stub article into a redirect per suggestion of user:Chubbles who reversed the prod citing "not a good deletion target, possible merge candidate to founder's page?".[1] I did that exactly, redirected to founder's page,[2], but then this also was reverted, now citing "unilateral redirecting is no better a solution than deleting. Perhaps WP:RFD is the right place."[3] My immediate question is: What other types of redirecting than unilateral do we have? I don't even understand what this objection is about. __meco (talk) 23:33, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"merging" and "redirecting" are two different things. Both of them should be done with consensus, and we have processes for that. In any case, you redirected without any attempt to merge the legitimately encyclopedic information into any other article, in which case the redirect is essentially useless (it removes content without providing it elsewhere, and is only useful to direct searches to an article that may or may not actually serve the user). If you think this does not merit inclusion as a standalone article, you could tag it for a merge, or nominate it for deletion; I guess it all depends on how hard you want to ride this horse.
