Logical induction

A non-notable research paper. The references are primary sources and a Tumblr blog. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 03:49, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete and redirect. The paper itself is an unpublished preprint. It has a handful of citations on Google scholar, but I think it's WP:TOOSOON. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:24, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Why "delete"? I think "redirect" is fine.  There's no need to remove the history. --Trovatore (talk) 19:41, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Machine Intelligence Research Institute. Vorbee (talk) 20:36, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment. The redirect target should be determined by the name, not by the current content.  The name should redirect to inductive reasoning. --Trovatore (talk) 20:42, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to inductive reasoning, per WP:R I think this makes the most sense to someone searching "Logical induction". BananaCarrot152 (talk) 22:06, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to inductive reasoning (which already has a hatnote pointing to mathematical induction, in case that's what the reader was after). XOR&#39;easter (talk) 19:24, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
 * OK, point of order, what is all this "delete and redirect" stuff? "Delete and redirect" means delete the history, not the content.  That's for things like copyvio or libel.  I see no reason at all to delete the history here.  Can the D&R people explain why they want the D part? --Trovatore (talk) 20:57, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
