Synephrine hydrochloride
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Promotional article looking as if the use of synephrine as a "nutritional supplement" were the standard one, while the use as a drug were only "claimed". See Synephrine for a case study on synephrine as a dietary supplement. The article could also be merged into Synephrine, but there is hardly anything to merge. ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 20:41, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Note from nominator: The first deletion discussion is at Articles for deletion/L-Arginine Malate where multiple articles were nominated. Result was "Each article should be judged on its own merit". --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 20:48, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, and my nomination statement at the first AfD.  Them From  Space  21:10, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep If the nominator does not care for the tone of the article then this is best remedied by editing rather than deletion. The chemical compound is well-recognised and covered in numerous reliable sources and so there is no case for deletion. Colonel Warden (talk) 16:26, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to synephrine - trivial salt of free base. We have a long-standing convention to write about the free acid or free base forms, unless the salt is particularly important. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 12:13, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to synephrine per Rifleman 82 - makes sense to combine free base and common salt forms into one article. Boghog (talk) 12:26, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Change to Redirect from nominator. I've started cleaning up some unsupported claims, but think someone else should do the redirect/merge since I'm not strictly NPOV about this and would probably just redirect and lose the content. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 12:44, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
