Mnemonics
Former speedy deletion candidate. Copy and paste from its note:
 * As user 1-is-blue points out, This page should be removed as it merely duplicates the dynamically generated category list for mnemonics.


 * "Mnemonics" is one of the Main page "browse" hyperlinks. It currently links to Category:Mnemonics, not this page. (Eustace Tilley, signature added from history) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Aphaia (talk • contribs) 09:48, 5 April 2005 (UTC)


 * VOTE CLOSED. Results: Delete (1 Delete, 1 Delete/Rename; no dissent; additional support from 1-is-blue's irregular request for deletion and Eustace Tilley's implied vote by speedy-deletion tagging). I will change its links to Category:Mnemonics. &mdash; Jeff Q (talk) 01:02, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or rename I think this proposal is worthy to consider. The list on this page contains now only four articles, and some other Wikiquotes seem to go well with categories and no list. If we keep it, I propose to rename it List of mnemonics following our naming conventions. --Aphaia 09:48, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: The main page does link to this page in the categories section but not in the browser bar. There are several pages on list of categories that don't follow the "List of" format like last words and Epitaphs. Rmhermen 13:13, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. This list provides no current advantages over Category:Mnemonics, which has the same content, but the former must be manually maintained. The current link in "MainPage-> SelectedPages-> Categories" should be changed to the Wikimedia category as well. &mdash; Jeff Q (talk) 00:18, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
