The result of the debate was Keep. (non-admin closure) As stated below, WP:CROSS presents a valid point against such a CNR, but I think Reyk summed it up nicely that common sense must prevail in many cases. Mastrchf (t/c) 17:59, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Cross-namespace redirect. Violates WP:CROSS and WP:ASR  ANDROS1337   16:35, 11 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. WP:CROSS says "If someone searches for "articles for deletion", it's only logical that he is looking for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, and not for any encyclopaedia article." I agree with that. Haukur (talk) 17:12, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - It would be unconstructive to delete it. Hubschrauber729 (talk) 18:07, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep- mostly the rule against cross-namespace redirects should be followed, but there are times when common sense says otherwise. This is one of those times. Reyk  YO!  02:40, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
