The result of the debate was REDIRECT to James P. Kem as a common misspelling. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 04:11, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Delete, duplicate. Correctly-spelled article already exists at James P. Kem, with the exact same text, plus a picture. Oddly enough, only the title of this article gets the name wrong. Android79 20:48, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, duplicate/redundant article. Megan1967 00:00, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- U.S. Senate election, 1952 links to both the correctly spelled name (in the chart) and this one (in the top blurb). Several other articles link to "Kem"; no other article links to "Kern". I bet what actually happened is that the spelling error was made in the body of that article and somebody created a new article from the misspelled redlink without noticing that it was misspelled (or just doesn't know how to create a redirect). Delete. I fixed the misspelled link. Bearcat 06:33, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- That suggests this should be a redirect to discourage recreation - David Gerard 15:33, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to correct spelling to discourage recreation, further OCR errors, etc - David Gerard 15:33, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
