Article listed on WP:VFD Jul 8 to Jul 15 2004, consensus was to redirect. Discussion:

Dicdef. Was listed for speedy deletion, but I brought it here, as dicdefs aren't speedyable. blankfaze | •• | •• 01:47, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: I thought I was going nuts. "Wasn't there a VfD about this before," I thought? I went hunting, went through history, etc. Spread eagle had been deleted, and it was better than this. Geogre 03:24, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Spreadeagle, which survived VfD in mid-June. SWAdair | Talk 03:44, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Merged and redirected to spreadeagle, and recreated spread eagle as a redirect as well. Keep both as redirects. -Sean Curtin 23:39, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Needs to be a redirect (spread-eagle is the form used in the Oxford English Dictionary). I've added some heraldic information to the article 'spreadeagle' as well, which originally was rather reinforcing the old stereotype about the internet... Average Earthman 09:02, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • If the OED uses the hyphenated form, Wikipedia should probably locate the article at that location as well. -Sean Curtin 07:07, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
