Talk:Miami Gators

From VfD:

A fictional sports team mentioned once in one movie. All relevant information already in Back to the Future Part II. No possibilities for expanding. I suggest delete and redirect. --Farside 17:15, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

• Merge & redirect. -FZ 17:39, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

expanding- I think it is useful to keep the redirect, for use of those who want to know if the team really exists. -FZ 18:51, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

• Merge and delete. I really doubt too many people looking for the Miami Gators will need a redirect to find their way to the Back to the Future II article. -- Bobdoe 17:41, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Merge and delete. What Bobdoe said. Saint will 17:42, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Just delete; silly pseudoinformation. Dunc_Harris|☺ 18:01, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Delete: trivia hunters' gold, but I'm betting they're the Devilrays. Geogre 18:13, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. Rossami 00:07, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Redirect harms nothing. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 01:02, 2004 Sep 3 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect. No such vote as "merge and delete" exists. I'm surprised there's no list of fictional sports teams yet. -Sean Curtin 01:47, Sep 3, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep as redirect. anthony (see warning) 15:19, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• No vote. Comment: If you voted "Merge and Delete", please clarify your vote. Merge and Delete are incompatible reccomendations. Merge means keeping the article history; Delete means deleting the article history. Davodd 16:53, Sep 4, 2004 (UTC)
  • Just being curious: What if you want the contents to be added (merged) to another article but delete the history? What's the correct wording for that? --Farside 07:47, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • If the contents are creative, merging the contents without keeping the history would violate the GFDL. anthony (see warning) 11:55, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)
      • If the number of users is short enough, credit can be crammed into an edit summary. -- Cyrius|✎ 16:54, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • Although this violates the GFDL, it is sometimes accepted by Wikipedians when there is no other solution (after all, our history section already violates the GFDL anyway). But according to policy, we don't do this when an article is listed on VfD. anthony (see warning) 20:32, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Redirect to pacify the inclusionists. -- Cyrius|✎ 03:44, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• If you want to make it a redirect, just do it; you don't need to list it on VfD. "Delete and redirect" makes no sense. Redirect. — Gwalla | Talk 05:55, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
