Talk:Cheong Inji

It is very common for Wikipedia to include redirects for alternate spellings of people's names, and even for misspellings, even when those alternate versions or misspellings are undeniably wrong. Such redirects are at worst harmless, and there is nothing whatever to be gained by deleting them.

In this case, deleting the redirect would be a loss. I added this redirect because I encountered the name, under the indicated spelling, in my reading. Regardless of whether it is "correct", it is in use, and people may try to look it up.

Addendum: The editor who listed this article for deletion recently added a redirect at Ȟǎčěǩ, which is undeniably wrong, and extremely unlikely ever to be searched for by anyone. I do not see any consistency of policy when someone adds a redirect at Ȟǎčěǩ and proposes to delete a redirect at Cheong Inji. Just what are you trying to accomplish here?

This is NOT an alternative spelling. "Cheong" is absolutely incorrect! Also there's no such as a last name "청" in Korean. -- 23:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
