Talk:Four-leaf Mandragora Bud/AfD Discussion

Article for Deletion
Delete This is a useless page. Should either be deleted or made into a redirect an Admins discretion. --Nynaeve 01:26, 11 June 2007 (CDT)

Keep: After checking the DATs, "4Leaf Mandra Bud" is how it shows up in inventory. "Four-Leaf Mandragora Bud" is how it is in the log/image. Per Naming Conventions, the main page should be this one. Set redirect from Four-Leaf Mandragora Bud to here since it's one of those odd ones that are completely different between the inventory and log. (Note: I updated the main page to reflect how it should be.) -- 05:24, 11 June 2007 (CDT)

Delete/Redirect: Actually, "Mandra" is short for "Mandragora", so it should be "4Leaf Mandragora Bud" or "4-Leaf Mandragora Bud." And technically, 4 could be an abbreviation for "Four," so "Four-Leaf Mandragora Bud" would work too. ~ Karuberu 08:42, 11 June 2007 (CDT)

Redirect: I am in favor of calling these abbreviations also. "4Leaf Mandra Bud" can redirect to "Four-Leaf Mandragora Bud". -- 08:47, 11 June 2007 (CDT)

Keep: I am with Wayka on this. It appears as 4Leaf Mandra Bud in your inventory. This is not really "abbreviated" as there are no grammatical markings to signify this. Things such as Aquarian Abjurations are signified as an abbreivation; "A.Abjuration". Much like Gobbie Bag is 'slang" for Goblin Bag, as they are called Goblins, not Gobbies; yet the name of the quest is Gobbie Bag. It is my opinion that if this is to be converted to 4leaf Mandragora or 4-Leaf Mandragora then the naming convention section needs to be revised as to explain that even if your inventory displays a "slang" or "shortened" (not abbreviated) word, it is to be spelled out in its entirety. -Cleric-yokiko 09:01, 11 June 2007 (CDT)

Delete: The redirect should be to Four-Leaf Mandragora Bud, not the other way around. Per Naming Conventions, "The name of the item page should reflect how the item appears in your inventory, but expanding any abbreviations." However, this should remain a redirect because of the differences and possible confusion in naming conventions. -- 11:16, 18 June 2007 (CDT)

Resolution: Keep as redirect to Four-Leaf Mandragora Bud. -- 12:06, 18 June 2007 (CDT)
