Sir Leslie Joseph Hooker
Now redirect to Leslie Joseph Hooker (and double redirect to another page). I am not sure if we need a redirect with style. --Aphaia 04:03, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

 * VOTE CLOSED. Result: redirect to Advertising slogans. Even though 1 vote isn't really a consensus, the comments suggest this nomination was due to a failure to check for double redirects, so it should have been just a matter of fixing a redirect anyway. Both redirects violate the principle of least astonishment, but I don't feel comfortable unilaterally invoking this for a VfD at this time. We can always review these redirects down the road. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 08:24, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: sorry, my bad. I merged the LJH page into Advertising slogans, and didn't check for double redirects. ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 04:32, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment: We really should have an explanation here of why a person's name is being redirected to Advertising slogans. I'd never heard of this person, but I'll take a shot. L.J. Hooker, founded by Sir Leslie Joseph Hooker, is an Australian real-estate company. According to its WP article, its slogan is "nobody does it better"&trade;, which was not in the quote article. What was there was "Real estate is not about houses, it’s about people." Neither is in "Advertising slogans" at the moment. This is all quite confusing, and doesn't make it easy for the community to evaluate this nomination. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 00:55, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
