The result was   keep. The article is not a dictionary entry, and is a decent article. I have not done the redirect since almost all sources use the current title only. Please feel to correct me if required. (non-admin closure) ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛  Talk Email 06:03, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Low poly
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Declined db-reason, with rationale:
 * there already exists an article with similar info under the name Polygon mesh. The term low-poly does not contain enough info to get it's own page

Procedural nomination; no opinion. — This, that, and the other (talk) 10:57, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep is a real term, has some relevant sources and goes into more detail than a dictionary definition so is worthy of inclusion. Polyamorph (talk) 13:33, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Computing-related deletion discussions.  —Tom Morris (talk) 14:49, 8 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep This is a recognised term (albeit less vital than it used to be) as a distinct quality of rendering that's lower quality, but faster to work with. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:06, 8 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep Polygonal mesh is the overarching article, yes, but Low poly is a subject that has been discussed extensively and has more than enough information to make it separate from the higher article. Low poly modeling is a staple in practically all programming, modeling, and game designing textbooks. It is a fundamental term and structure to multiple industries.

 * Rename to polygon density to avoid the need for high poly, mid poly and ulta-high poly etc. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:28, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
