Hindoo

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Redundant to Hindoo (disambiguation), which lists the exact same text as its first sentence, and thus should be moved over the redirect. P p p er y 23:21, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Unless someone demonstrates the potential for a separate article, I think it's best to merge with Hindu, and leave a hatnote pointing to the disambiguation page. I don't think the dab page should be moved to the primary title, as at present it receives only about a third as many pageviews as Hindoo. –  Uanfala (talk) 23:38, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * The merge there is fine with me. I was suggesting moving as the outcome that changed things the least. P p p er y 23:43, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Merge with Hindu as per nom. - Kautilya3 (talk) 01:49, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge anything interesting with Hindu and leave redirect —Мандичка YO 😜 20:14, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge with Hindu, though I like it as is, Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Along the same lines as what Uanfala said, if someone demonstrates the potential for a more substantive separate article, count me in the keep column. — Godsy (TALK CONT ) 16:07, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm sad, because I think this is a wonderful, elegant one-sentence article, but a merge to Hindu does seem sensible. --BDD (talk) 19:13, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
