The result was SNOW redirect  Normally I wouldn't close any AfD in which I've participated, but it's pretty clear that there's a universal consensus among participants that a redirect is in order, to which the nominator agrees. Make it so. Jclemens (talk) 06:20, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Sith race

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Written in an in-universe style, may not meet notability guidelines for Wikipedia. Could be merged into existing Sith article  [mad pierrot] [t   c]  00:49, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete- subject is already covered here (Sith_(species)), and there is a current merger suggestion between that and the Sith article.  [mad pierrot] [t   c]  00:54, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. No context. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 01:25, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Umm... do you really not know what a sith is? Jclemens (talk) 02:45, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List of Star Wars races (P–T) or Sith . Attempting a redirect would have been better part of valor before bringing to AfD. --EEMIV (talk) 02:06, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect per EEMIV. Jclemens (talk) 02:45, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect EEMIV has it right. Javert  (T· C ) 03:59, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect per EEMIV. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 07:29, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect........not sure you could call the Sith a race anyway since they got diluted to much.. Niteshift36 (talk) 09:24, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Star Wars races (P–T), not Sith as that article is mostly focused on the Sith Order, not this species (confusing isn't it?), and it's probably best to keep it that way. BryanG (talk) 14:22, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Question: EEMIV, what do you mean by attempting a redirect would have been better part of valor before bringing to AfD?  [mad pierrot] [t   c]  19:15, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * WP:BEFORE: "Consider making the page a useful redirect or proposing it be merged rather than deleted." I'm 98% certain that if the article were merely redirected before brought to AfD, the redirect would sit firmly in place, and this collection of plotcruft wouldn't be sitting out in articlespace for however many days. --EEMIV (talk) 19:21, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Good point, perhaps doing an AFD wasn't the best choice. Is there any information in the article that is worth adding to the existing section about the Sith species?  [mad pierrot] [t   c]  19:42, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Eh, not really in my opinion... I'm fairly sure their only real significance within Star Wars is the influence on Dark Jedi already mentioned in that section (disclaimer: this isn't an area of SW I'm well-read in). Of course a redirect preserves the edit history so if anyone thinks there's something salvageable in there they're welcome to use it. BryanG (talk) 20:23, 22 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Redirect: I'm withdrawing my nomination, and once the discussion is closed I'll create the redirect suggested.  [mad pierrot] [t   c]  17:48, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
