Discussion

 * Perhaps the best route to take here might be create a Redirect for Discussion page. See WP:RFD. TheRingess 16:59, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. I think the best thing to do is move the GNU dab page to GNU -- Selmo  (talk) 22:37, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

What the, why does this require mediation? I'm happy to undo the changes if people are unhappy about it. I was simply cleaning out CAT:CSD, and usually, I will do something (i.e. redirect, or clean up) with articles for which I think the speedy tag is not appropriate. enochlau (talk) 23:26, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Another user created this page, and it is well within their right to do so. You are not required to participate.  Personally, I think that you don't need to do anything.  To me, the most appropriate action is that we close this case, and the creator create an RFD. TheRingess 22:57, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. enochlau (talk) 12:34, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
