Places in the U.S. named Palestine

 * Deletion is not the last step of an article merger. Redirect. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 16:45, Apr 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Korath is right. Come on! Be bold and redirect. Mgm|(talk) 17:40, Apr 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * A redirect page is used to guide the user when typing an abbreviation, an other name or a misspelling of an article into the search box (see Redirect). I can hardly imagine that someone will type a title this long with respect of punctuation. Also, this redirect will be wrong, because it won't redirect to a page with the same subject. 500LL 18:57, Apr 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * It's also how we preserve author attribution and edit history after a merge, a requirement of the GFDL. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 01:27, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect, someone might have a bookmark or link from another site to it. --SPUI (talk) 00:00, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Seems like an obvious case for a redirect. Had that been done, it would have prevented unnecessary VFD bloat.  JYolkowski 01:30, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
