Lateral diffusion

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

appears to be the common name for osmosis and fails GNG as social media reference; article has been around a long time and seems to be the source of online descriptions for this term. Not sure if I should just do redirect or propose deletion. Same editor created Articles for deletion/Lateral media and Lateral communication that seem to support each other. —Мандичка YO 😜 13:53, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Redirect to Cell membrane. With 84,700 hits in GScholar, lateral diffusion is a highly notable topic. Lateral diffusion is an important topic in membrane biophysics. We don't have an article on the biophysics topic, so I suggest to redirect this to Cell membrane, where it is mentioned. It doesn't seem to be a notable concept in sociology or social network theory; I could find no reliable in depth references on the topic. --Mark viking (talk) 03:33, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I knew it was a real scientific term but didn't know to where it should be redirected. —Мандичка YO 😜 13:13, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Redirect. An important topic shouldn't be deleted if there's an article on it with a different name.  192.12.149.16 (talk) 18:55, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
