dab with no valid entries - IRC does not WP:DABMENTION Red Cross, ICRC doesn't have rescue in it's title. Both article have hatnotes now just in case, but I'd let anyone remove them. Widefox ; talk 19:25, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Delete and Redirect to International Committee of the Red Cross, leaving the useful hatnote. A google search turned up only two hits for this term here and here both of which actually ought to say ICRC rather than IRC. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:51, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Google of "International Rescue Committee of the Red Cross" (note quoted) gives two sources  (all other 4/5 hits being WP circular). I'm guessing those two are typos, and as such we shouldn't have or use the term giving it legitimacy. As a new dab with negligible history/linking etc, I suggest deletion to prevent creation of ambiguity when there is none.  Widefox ; talk 14:20, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 * User:Shhhnotsoloud pls clarify "Delete" or "Redirect"? Widefox ; talk 11:35, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * My !vote was to delete the article, but because the term has erroneous uses, leave a redirect to International Committee of the Red Cross. I would be equally happy with a simple delete for the reasons you outline. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:53, 14 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete. Widefox is convincing in arguing there's no sense in perpetuating an error like this.  --Lockley (talk) 04:32, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
