Globus cruciger
This page was transwikied, Wiktionary:Transwiki:Globus cruciger, and now it's still pure dicdef. Doubt any potential for growth and I can't see any viable redirects: delete.--Dmcdevit 17:15, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep real things. Also, this could be expanded to discuss its history and usage, and if there were any real ones or they just existed on coins etc. Kappa 17:31, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * merge and redirect: could be an interesting tidbit to add to Roman Emperor or something like Byzantine art (whichever artistic period it's most closely associated with). Avocado 17:33, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Concur with that, merge, Radiant_* 22:26, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Hmm... I could have thought this one out better. I guess I see the merge reasoning, but I honestly thought that a redirect would be pointless as unless this object actually plays a noticeable part in the article it is redirected to, it is disorienting to the searcher. That's why I thought a redirect wouldn't accompish much, but I suppose there may be some reason. --Dmcdevit 23:08, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree that a redirect woudn't accomplish much, but it's better than a complete gap in wikipedia's coverage. Kappa 01:32, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * I suppose that'll be fine, but I would want to make sure it redirects to an art page, maybe Byzantine art if it's the right place, because it would be much more relevant to art than Roman emperor. P.S.: I think you should change your catch phrase from "keep real things" to "keep tangible things," isn't that what you mean? :) --Dmcdevit 01:39, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
