The result was delete. There is no consensus for a particular redirect target, and no clearly reliably sourced material for merging anywhere. So the close is delete.

I also remind any who might propose to create a redirect that "Nazi" is a problematic term, with multiple meanings, so we should not use it unless we can make the specific meaning clear - which can't be done on a redirect (and was never done in this article). This tends to indicate that we should not have a redirect. GRBerry (talk) 01:58, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Ex-Nazis in the CIA

Failed PROD due to same editor removing multiple random prods. Original Prod note: Has remained a poorly unreferenced stub since December 2006 and makes serious and potentially damaging claims Collectonian 19:59, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect properly sourced information to Operation Paperclip. Otto4711 20:07, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Most of the information relates to the Gehlen organization, which already has its own its own page here. What's left is about one sentence of unsourced allegations. Dchall1 21:09, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Reinhard Gehlen rather than to Operation Paperclip. A lot of empty calories in this article, which essentially reveals little except that there were some Ex-Nazis... in the CIA.  Mandsford 01:36, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
 * A redirect to Gehlen is fine by me. Otto4711 15:40, 14 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, as a redirect lets the implication of the claim live on. -- Mikeblas (talk) 21:59, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
