Francis Shcaeffer

This unmarked substub mispells its own title -- there is a real article on Francis Schaeffer. Clearly needs to be deleted.Zantastik 07:19, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Comment: This was apparently never listed on vfd, so I'm putting it on today's page. —Korath (Talk) 00:14, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
Redirect to Francis Schaeffer. There's nothing unique in this sub-stub that's not in the full article. Jonathunder 00:52, 2005 Apr 5 (UTC)
Redirect to Francis Schaeffer. Klonimus 02:11, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Delete with no redirect. —Sesel wa 04:29, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Delete, no redirect. This unusual spelling mistake is not common enough to justify a redirect. Megan1967 06:28, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Redirect. You would not believe all the different misspellings people can make. Sjakkalle 07:06, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Redirects are cheap. Mgm|^(talk) 08:03, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
Redirect - I can imagine someone making this misspelling. Firebug 09:35, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Delete I'm not convinced spelling errors should be redirected. Paradiso 12:37, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Plausible spelling errors should by redirected. The fact that someone misspelled the name this way suggests plausibility in my opinion. See WP:R. Sjakkalle 13:36, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Delete spelling error. Oliver Keenan 16:46, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
Redirects are cheap. plausible spelling error. Dave the Red (talk) 18:26, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
Redirect Redirects are cheap, and you can do them without having to have a VFD. DJ Clayworth 18:28, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
CSD policy says to speedy delete typos. Delete, do not Redirect. Rick K 20:20, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)

And WP:R policy says we use redirects for misspellings. Sjakkalle 06:57, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I see no problem with a redirect. From WP:CSD, "This does not include common mis-spellings, as redirects from those are considered useful." I suppose we could debate whether this is a common enough mis-spelling, but is that really worth the time? Radiant _* 08:11, Apr 6, 2005 (UTC)
Redirect. It simply doesn't matter and redirects are less controversial. I wouldn't object if someone did this immediately without waiting for conclusion of VfD; what do others think? Dpbsmith (talk) 18:03, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I decided to be bold and do the redirect. If the vote is for deletion, this may still be performed after appropriate consensus. Firebug 01:23, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Redirects are cheap. Rossami (talk) 05:59, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
