 * Delete as unverifiable, else redirect. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 03:23, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Ahmadi, as per GeorgeStepanek. Jud e (talk,contribs,email) 04:03, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect as per GeorgeStepanek. The name chosen by the community themselves is Ahmadi but the terms Qadiani and Ahmadi were used by the Census of Pakistan in 1998 found here, and the Constitution of Pakistan in 1974 found here . Green Giant 06:54, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Ahmadi, which does not contain as much info as this stub about why Ahmadis are sometimes called "Qadians". So it would be useful in the context of the Ahmadi article. Hyphen5 07:06, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I've done the merge. GeorgeStepanek\talk 08:59, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect, but redirect it to Ahmadiyya_Muslim_Community - a redirect to Ahmadiyya would be subtly POV - apparently those who denigrate the Ahmadiyya sect/movement/whatever like to class all Ahmadi as Qadiani, when in reality that those who are termed Qadiani are only one of two groups. I have changed the Ahmadiyya article to better indicate that the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community are the group known as Qadiani by some (in its current state, it didn't make this quite clear in the opening), and that what they practice is sometimes called Qadianism.  Just building on George's merge, I think.  I may be wrong about all of this, but it's what I could glean from the existing articles. Bobby P. Smith Sr. Jr. 13:51, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
