Pseudoscience (physics)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article was redirected to Pseudoscience in December 2020 following discussion on the talk page, arguing that this is a redundant case study with no notability on its own — in other words, this is just the concept of pseudoscience as applied to physics. It was previously called Pseudophysics, but was unilaterally renamed in October 2020 as an apparently made-up neologism. The new title is not a plausible redirect. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 04:34, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

 * While there may (or may not) be a notable topic of pseudoscience related to physics, the extant article is not helpful. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  04:40, 22 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Procedural keep: this should surely be at "redirects for deletion" (wherever that is, sorry). Frankly it is not worth the electrons to discuss removing redirects, unless they have some real negative effect, which this one does not. Imaginatorium (talk) 04:55, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment Is there a reason why the AfD tag was added to the page Pseudoscience? That is not the page which has been nominated for deletion. I have removed the tag. Not sure if that's proper, but I'll invoke WP:IAR if necessary. If it's an error, then no worries, I'm just a bit confused. Local Variable (talk) 06:55, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Further, I have added the tag to the nominated page. Local Variable (talk) 06:59, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
