We Can't use Prod process, because it was previously at WP:AfD. Deprodding. Would you object to a basic redirect? What do you want merged? Please be exact and specific. Bearian (talk) 09:21, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note. I'm still re-learning how to edit/tag appropriately after a 16 year hiatus.

I think redirecting to aromatic compound makes more sense than a redirect to aryl. The fact that aryl and arene are derived from the same root of aromatic can be noted there, though I haven't found a good source for this etymology.

This is what I would write (will repost to Ar- talk page too)

"The root ar- from aromatic is shared by classes of molecules like arenes (all aromatic molecules) or aryls (aromatic funcional groups)." Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 02:33, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I redirected this as an Alternative To Deletion (ATD). Bearian (talk) 08:17, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
