The result was   speedy keep. WP:SK #1. Yes AFDs are sometimes closed as "merge" but that's usually the result of the !voters offering a "merge" alternative to a nominator's suggestion to "delete". In most cases (but there are a few exceptions) an article should not be bought to AFD unless the nominator wants an admin to push the delete button. Ron Ritzman (talk) 02:18, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

I created this page last year as a redirect to Fuller Brush Company, but it was turned into an uninformative stub. I don't believe this topic can stand as its own article, and that it should be merged and turned back into a redirect. Gyrobo (talk) 03:28, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep per WP:SK#1, "The nominator ...fails to advance an argument for deletion...". Warden (talk) 06:36, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not trying to advance an argument for deleting the article, I'm trying to advance an argument for merging it. I've seen articles merged as a result of AfD before, so I thought this was the proper venue for that. If it's not, then I withdraw this nomination, and will seek a different process. --Gyrobo (talk) 14:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
 * If there is no opposition then you can just go ahead and merge per WP:BOLD. Otherwise, the process is described at WP:MERGE.  Merger is not the primary purpose of AFD; it's just a common alternative to deletion which tends to arise in the course of discussion. Warden (talk) 14:15, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
 * That's good to know. I'll do that in the future. --Gyrobo (talk) 14:27, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
