BACK 40 (AfD subpage)


This article is not in any way notable. "Back 40," if anything, ought to be in a dictionary. --Sable232 17:33, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. At present this is just a dicdef, so unless seriously expanded I don't think it can be kept. Trebor 21:40, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Public Land Survey System. The back 40 was one-quarter of the typical 160 acre allotment under the PLSS. The phrase is mentioned there under Popular Culture -- Bpmullins | Talk 22:05, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Then this should be deleted, and a redirect made at back 40 or back forty, instead of having it in all caps. --Sable232 22:30, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed, except that the redirect will have to be Back 40 -- Bpmullins | Talk 19:47, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Public Land Survey System, per Bpmullins. The destination article appropriately contains the existing information; we just don't need an individual article for a not-so-notable phrase. While we're at it, might as well redirect back 40 and back forty to the PLSS page as well. ╫ ２５ ◀RingADing▶  16:37, 6 December 2006 (UTC) ╫
 * Again, let's just delete this particular page, since it doesn't need to be in all caps. --Sable232 16:44, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
