Pull (physics)

 * Redirect harmlessly to force. One of the first definitions a physics student sees for force is "a push or a pull." --1pezguy 03:13, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
 * But there are so many other meanings to the word "pull". Kelly Martin 03:54, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
 * The only meaning that's encyclopedic is force. But that's being difficult just for the purpose of being difficult.  --1pezguy 04:13, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
 * It also has a meaning in computer science. The assembly commands for dealing with the stack (computing) are often pull and push, although "pop" is used more often instead of pull.  Grue   05:48, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete. It doesn't matter how many dictionary definitions it has, they all belong in Wiktionary.  Mel Etitis  ( &Mu;&epsilon;&lambda; &Epsilon;&tau;&eta;&tau;&eta;&sigmaf; ) 08:41, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Disambig between Stack (computing), force, should also be in pickup but unfortunately that redirects to seduction. Kappa 10:18, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, in Stack (computing), the opposite of 'push' is 'pop'. So I'd say redirect to force. Radiant_* 13:51, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep. Moved to Pull (physics), but should still be disambiged. Denni &#9775; 03:06, 2005 Jun 7 (UTC)
 * But you didn't up-date this page... tsk, tsk. Mel Etitis ( &Mu;&epsilon;&lambda; &Epsilon;&tau;&eta;&tau;&eta;&sigmaf; ) 20:59, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * OK, it's done. Mel Etitis ( &Mu;&epsilon;&lambda; &Epsilon;&tau;&eta;&tau;&eta;&sigmaf; ) 21:00, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
