- Draft:Levidrome (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
This was a neologism that had some decent coverage in local Canadian sources, but an attempt at defining the term had already been attempted multiple times under other names which is at Palindrome#Semordnilap. I've created a redirect for this to that section of the article where all the other Semordnilap synonyms are, and added two sentences concerning levidrome. This should be good enough per WP:WITHIN, so do we really need to draft further on this term? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:39, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - There are two problems. First, it is only a word that is a neologism, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Second, the coverage of the neologism has been limited. Between the two issues, deletion is in order. Robert McClenon (talk) 08:40, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
- Redirect to Palindrome#Semordnilap per WP:WITHIN. No reason to delete the history. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:04, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
- SmokeyJoe are you asking that the Draft version history be merged into the newly created redirect? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:29, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
- AngusWOOF, what "newly created redirect"? --SmokeyJoe (talk) 05:26, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
- No. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 19:41, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
- Enough is already there. Redirect as that is what should have happened in the first place, no need for MfD unless the redirection was actively disagreed with. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 05:24, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

- Redirect to Palindrome#Semordnilap. Does no harm and points anyone arriving at the title in the right direction. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 21:04, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
