Kzanol

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Fictional character in a lesser known Known Space book. Larry Niven is my favorite sf author, but I have to say that I don't recall the Thrint's name being important within the story. It certainly fails outside notability. Page is also duplicative of the page of the book he is a character in. I don't believe that redirecting is useful here, as non-fans are not going to search by "Kzanol". Fee Fi Foe Fum 12:27, 25 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect to World of Ptavvs. We're not so pressed for space that a small redirect will strain resources. Fans might arrive via Kzanol. Gordonofcartoon 12:36, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect, not a bizarre search term. Note that one Dutch translation of the book was called Kzanol de ruimtepiraat (Kzanol the Space Pirate), so at least for people speaking Dutch but using the English Wikipedia, it is a logical search term (hey, they exist ;-) ).

 * Okay, you got me there. Fee Fi Foe Fum 09:04, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect. I don't get the rationale non-fans are not going to search by Kzanol. Who do we think is looking him up, George Bush? It's a plausible search term. --Dhartung | Talk 19:16, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
 * My feeling was that it wasn't a plausible search term, what can I say? His name isn't used much in the English version of the book. Should we make a redirect for Larry Greenberg too? Fee Fi Foe Fum 09:04, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect. Redirects are cheap. I've merged the necessary info. Clarityfiend 21:17, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
