Norbottenspets[edit]

This page is very close to being speedy. It lacks context (I seriously have no idea what the page is about), it appears to be essay like (possibly OR), and has no sources. Bachrach44 15:39, 18 June 2007 (UTC) Thanks to Uncle G for figuring out what this page is supposed to be. Per a few people below I think a redirect is in order - I can see other English speakers making this typo. --Bachrach44 15:50, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep, but for God's sake, clean up~~ Merge, per below. I didn't notice the spelling variation before.--Ispy1981 15:51, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Just merge it to Norrbottenspets. Uncle G 16:00, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Norrbottenspets, an existing article on the same topic. (appears to be a spelling variation)-- MisterHand 16:01, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Uncle G. Kim Dent-Brown ^{(Talk to me)} 16:02, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect clearly. Capmango 00:31, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete (and no redirect). This article is pure nonsense. As already pointed out, a good article already exists on this breed under its proper name. As a native Swedish speaker, I can guarantee that this is not a spelling variation. The breed, hailing from Norrbotten is named after that region, and neither the region nor the dog is ever spelled with only one r. I see no reason to have a page redirected to the proper name, then there would have to be loads of redirect-pages for every single article on Wikipedia. (Norbotenspets, Norrbottespetts, Norrbottennspets etc. - Norbottespets is no more correct or in use than any of those spellings). Just delete this page. JdeJ 04:08, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

True enough, I'm okay with delete. But it wouldn't be the only redirect from a common misspelling. Capmango 05:06, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Only delete don't redirect. xC | ☎ 04:44, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy close merged per above. Sorry to the Swedish speakers, but I feel this is a plausible spelling error for the average English speaker. Ohconfucius 03:04, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
