Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jean Astrue

This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was no consensus. There are five votes overall (six including the nominator), two for redirecting and three for deleting. Therefore, I find no consensus to delete. However, there's no point leaving a duplicate article there but anybody can redirect the article themselves after the AFD is closed. - Joolz 16:24, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Jean Astrue

This is an EB-1911-derived article on the physician and classicist, whose name is correctly spelled Jean Astruc. The article at the correct spelling includes nearly all the information from the EB, so we might as well delete this entry. Pilatus 18:54, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as per nominator Jkelly 19:18, September 11, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect as per the request of WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles. --best, kevin ···Kzollman | Talk··· 19:42, September 11, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment Blame the misspelling in the title on hiccups in the OCR software. There were a few spelling mistakes in the body of the article, too. Pilatus 21:08, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
• Comment I'm not sure I understand why we would want to redirect a misspelling, but perhaps there is a reason. My only concern would be that if there is any additional information in this article, it get incorporated into the Astruc article. --DavidConrad 19:47, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
  • I think the idea is so that people realize its an OCR mistake and don't try to recreate it over and over. I can't imagine what the harm of having a redirect there, and if it saves another AfD or someone a lot of work... --best, kevin ···Kzollman | Talk··· 21:18, September 11, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete -- nothing in this acticle that is not in the correctly spelled one. Also delete it from the project page list. RustySpear 21:06, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, obviously.---CH (talk) 04:40, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Jean Astruc. This is only because the bad OCR may turn up elsewhere, and someone may come here looking for more info. I think that a note about this on Jean Astruc's talk page would be a good idea too. --Apyule 05:27, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
