The result was redirect to List of Bountyheads in Cowboy Bebop#Asimov Solensan, which would not have needed an AfD. Sandstein 19:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Asimov Solenson

Asimov Solenson (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

No sources and, frankly, very poorly written - after some research one finds out that this is not a real person, but a character from an anime, which is already described much better and in correct spelling at List_of_Bountyheads_in_Cowboy_Bebop#Asimov_Solensan.

  • Delete as per nom... just terrible. OBM | blah blah blah 07:58, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect with anchor to the list mentioned in the nomination as a plausible misspelling of the character's name. -- saberwyn 08:02, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect Really, it's not hard. You think this is better covered elsewhere, then instead of going to AFD, hit the #R button and put it where you think it belongs. There might be times where the spelling is really implausible, or the connection unlikely, but this isn't one of those. In addition, you could have tried {{prod}} or informed the author of the page of the mistake, and seen if they'd have requested it's deletion. Since they are a new user, it's quite likely they didn't even realize the issue. It would probably help them a lot more if you'd taken the chance to talk with them about it. Ah well, I hope you get a chance to use this advice in the future. There are times deletion is appropriate, but there are also other options. FrozenPurpleCube 08:31, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Oh, and I made a redirect at Asimov Solensan as well. FrozenPurpleCube 08:34, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
