WPT1.0/I → Wikipedia talk:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Index
The result of the debate was delete. --ais523 16:06, 31 March 2007 (UTC) Unconventional shortcut. No incoming. The conventional shortcut (WT:1.0/I) already exists. --- RockMFR 03:30, 24 March 2007 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete. Unnecessary and unlikely to be used now everyone is becoming familiar with the WT: format. WjBscribe 05:20, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

WikiProjects → WikiProject
The result of the debate was keep. WjBscribe 03:13, 31 March 2007 (UTC) This is an article linking to WP namespace. Also nominated in conjunction are WikiProject and WikiProjects, for the same reason. Niffweed17, Destroyer of Chickens 02:46, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Note. This redirect has been nominated before, see Redirects for discussion/Log/2006 November 11. The result was no consensus. WjBscribe 05:18, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. WikiProject is where the page used to sit before the creation of the separate Wikipedia namespace.  The others are plausible variants.  None of them appear to be in the way of encyclopedic content (but if they are, any editor can overlay the content without deleting the redirect from history).  Nor do any of them create potential confusion for readers.  Rossami (talk) 06:22, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Wikiproject has been speedy deleted out of process a few times. Whatever happens here should apply to that article (unless someone wants to bring the cnr debate to DRV... oh god). --- RockMFR 02:59, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I've gone ahead and re-created that redirect. Keep all. These are useful cross-namespace redirects. --- RockMFR 19:52, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. I always type in Wikiprojects/Wikiproject when I want to find the Wikiprojects main page. It is useful to have them redirect to the proper page.Gittinsj 05:21, 25 March 2007 (UTC)gittinsj
 * I frankly don't see why we should keep this XNR for historical reasons, so delete.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  08:29, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Its how other language wikipedias do it as well. Baka man  19:16, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - Don't see any decent reason why it should be deleted. -- Spe bi 10:53, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep all. This is a plausible search term, and anyone who types it is not expecting to see a mainspace article. YechielMan 19:04, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep it should stay as per yechielman Crested Penguin 07:49, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Redirect is useful. 69.140.164.142 01:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep all for the moment. Most every time I read the rationale against, it mentions the other uses of the term in the world of wiki (such as generally referring to any wiki site, or "project"), but until someone actually makes a notable, cited article about various uses of the term, this is the only approach that makes sense — otherwise, the article remains in this bizarre world of perennial "but it's out there" non-existence. $$\sim$$ Lenoxus " * " 03:12, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep please. I only found it because I was trying to find the list of WikiProjects to tag an article for. "WikiProject" is in no way a notable term outside of Wikipedia nor is it likely to be; it's quicker to type "WikiProject" instead of a different, longer "Go" term than most people would instinctively use or remember; and of course, if you're using internal links in a sentence (which is entirely probable with this term), it's MUCH easier to construct the link. Overall there is just no real reason I can possibly see to delete this, as it's just a redirect not a duplicate article (and it prevents a duplicate from popping up. Hey, I've seen weirder things happen!), it's not like the term is likely to become notable seperate from Wikipedia in some other way, and it's very handy to have to the redirect.
