The result of the discussion was Delete as copy of the initial article version. Since the article creation is attributed to Jgilhousen and the draft was only worked upon by him, a history merge is not necessary. Tikiwont (talk) 10:03, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

User:Jgilhousen/draft2
The user has retired, and the draft merely duplicates James A. Redden, long since been moved to article space. Where a user claims to retire, I think it is fair to delete drafts of pages that have already culminated in articles. I would not be adverse to merging in Jgilhousen's edit history from the draft. -- bd2412  T 23:24, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete draft and consolidate as appropriate with mainspace article per BD2412. Newyorkbrad (talk) 21:51, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge history. On a single day, 8 December 2006, User:Jgilhousen drafted at User:Jgilhousen/draft2.  Seven days later he copied and pasted into the new article James A. Redden.  The draft was not touched again until this nomination.   User:Jgilhousen should preferably have moved the draft into mainspace.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:50, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
