The votes were 1 delete, 2 redirect. The information is already at Eskrima, so merging isn't relevant.

Rattan (weapon), also Rattan sticks, Rattan stick, Arnis stick, & Arnis sticks
These are the only other contributions from 172.151.88.226, who gave us Chulukua-Ryu and Harley "SwiftDeer" Reagan. A "rattan weapon" is a known fighting implement. However it, at least as employed by the Society for Creative Anachronism and others, appears to be merely a weapon made of rattan. Are you as surprised by that as I am?

 * Delete, unnecessary duplications/forks, dictionary definitions. Megan1967 01:59, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect all to Eskrima. -Sean Curtin 07:27, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and rediret to one of these names, or to somewhere appropriate. There is potential for an article here about the quasi-sport that has developed of fighting with rattan sticks and full armor. -- Jmabel | Talk 19:40, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)
