Macula (planetary geology)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This one-line dictionary definition survived a previous prod (June 07) on the grounds that it had the potential for expansion, however I really don't see that being the case, and in over a year there hasn't been any such expansion.  Equazcion •✗/C • 21:52, 8 Feb 2009 (UTC)
 * Soft redirect to wiktionary. I'll go ahead and do that now.-- S Marshall   Talk / Cont  22:22, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - sorry; but I think that bold redirecting should await the result of the AfD. TerriersFan (talk) 02:10, 9 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete This is just a dictionary definition (and one already in Wiktionary, at that) already provided in the few WP pages that link to it. It doesn't appear that there's anything additional to be said here, although I'm willing to be proved wrong, if anyone has further info they can add. Anaxial (talk) 22:37, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge into Planetary geology, a page that badly needs some content. A section on related terms would be a useful addition. TerriersFan (talk) 02:16, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect - I do think that this has potential for expansion as our knowledge of planetary geology improves, so keeping the page as a redirect would serve a purpose. That said, as it stands the suggested merge seems the best option. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DuncanHill (talk • contribs) 08:07, 9 February 2009
 * Merge as above. Axl  ¤  [Talk]  16:35, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep- A five minute search turned up the following sources:, , , , which are enough to write a small but respectable stub, and I'm sure there's more sources to be found. I will expand the article later, when I have time. Reyk  YO!  20:59, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * More sources:,  Reyk  YO!  21:12, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect as TerriersFan. Jdrewitt (talk) 21:36, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
