March 15
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 15, 2008

Semi-protection → Protection policy
The result of the debate was delete. John Reaves 17:52, 22 March 2008 (UTC) Cross-namespace redirect, which is actually linked from an article. I always RfD these immediately when I come across them, as if something is linked from an article it strongly suggests that people may come across it by mistake when attempting to read the encyclopedia. (In this case, maybe replacing the link from the article with a srlink would be a good option, but I'm less sure about what should be done with the link from article than I am about deleting the redirect.) --ais523 20:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - links only from discussion pages, user pages, and Wikipedia project pages (no article pages). Semi-protection is an appropriate redirect that isn't a cross-namespace redirect. B.Wind (talk) 17:16, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Characters of Veronica → Characters of Veronica Mars
Pointless redirect, basically just a giant typo. Otto4711 (talk) 18:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete. Too vague to be a useful redirect. B.Wind (talk) 05:48, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

The result of the debate was changed. John Reaves 17:49, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Wolverine: Origins → Origin (comic)
Wolverine: Origins and Origin are separate comic series--Origin is a six-issue limited series as discussed in the redirected article, where Wolverine: Origins is an ongoing series spun out of the Origins & Endings storyline in Wolverine v3 showing the character exploring his newly-remember history and tying up the loose ends thereof.

Violates naming conventions, and there aren't other people called Ricky Martin. David Pro (talk) 20:21, 15 March 2008 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete. Redundant; dismabiguation not needed at this time. B.Wind (talk) 05:45, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
