The result of the debate was what Caerwine said

Seems we've somehow doubled up on ourselves - we have: all leading into. Surely we don't need all three. I propose deleting the electro-stub redirect and either deleting or redirectling electro-stub to reduce the mess a little. Grutness...wha?  23:27, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Electronics-stub
 * Electro-stub
 * Electron-stub (a redirect to Electro-stub)
 * Electron appears to be the abbreviation that WikiProject Electronics uses for its templates, so keep electron-stub as a redirect, but change it to point to electronics-stub instead. Delete electro-stub, but change the icon of electronics-stub to use that currently used by electro-stub since it is also used by the associated WikiProject for its templates and thus helps promote a degree of consistency for Wiki internal references about electronics.

 * Agree with Caerwine, keep electron and redirect to electronics with changed icon.   Jo  e  I  04:40, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Use Electronics-stub and delete the others. The "electron"- variant gives the impressions that its topic has to do with electrons. Valentinian T / C 15:24, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Maybe someone can look into this, but is not electronics the study of electrons? If so then keeping ^electron-stub with redirect to "electronics-stub"^ is ok with me.Goldenrowley 18:53, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Just clarifying: "Electron-stub" simply reminds me of nuclear physics. (Computer) electronics would come much further down my list of associations. Valentinian T / C 23:50, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment The redirect does not appear to have any ambiguity problems to me (I can't imagine that Wikipedia has articles about individual elections or even individual atomic orbitals), so I don't mind the abbreviated redirect in this case so as to support another WikiProject. If there were any ambiguity problems or no WikiProject relationship, I wouldn't. Caerwine Caer’s whines 00:26, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
