Guide to abbreviations used in deletion debates


This page is redundant to Glossary. I recommend blanking the page (and merging anything that needs to be merged) and then converting the page into a redirect towards Glossary. Steel1943 (talk) 18:22, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * No objection, as a substantial contributor to the page. The solution is probably even simpler, though: just redirect. No need to blank first. And the page history will remain accessible for any editors interested in a merge. This page has an unusual history: it was apparently a previous name of WP:AADD, and continued to redirect there from 2007 until last year, when it came up at RfD, at which point it was turned into its own page. I think the participants in that discussion probably weren't aware of the glossary—and at the time, neither was I. It does appear that this page is redundant to the glossary now. --BDD (talk) 18:49, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect as suggested, although blanking is pointless and deleting first is a bad idea for many reasons. Ego White Tray (talk) 20:11, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Right, I was just stating "blank the page" to state that the content on the page currently could be blanked. So, yes, I'm essentially just stating that the page become a redirect. (I've struck out part of my nomination to reflect this.) Steel1943  (talk) 20:17, 28 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Redirect - In the 3 years I've been here I've ever only known "WP" & have never known GLOSSARY existed neither .... Anyway the page is helpful but is pretty much a copy of GLOSSARY so per nom & above Redirect is the best solution. →Davey 2010→  →Talk to me!→  16:04, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to Glossary. No reason to lose those terms not yet in the target. The Whispering Wind (talk) 22:54, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
