Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Orion (names)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aside from terrible naming conventions, I don't think it belongs on Wikipedia (while I'm on the fence about this). Ilγαηερ (Tαlκ) 01:29, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: "Orion" = "O'Ryan?" Nooooo. There aren't really variations, and we should already have plenty on Orion without this. Geogre 02:35, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Looking at the edit history all I can say is that it is a shame that the people who edited this spent so much time with so little useful result. Delete. Fire Star 05:00, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • I'd say include the info in one of the articles on the disamb page and delete. MGM 07:31, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)
  • Ridiculous --Tonioto 22:41, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Definitely Delete. A poor sub-stub and inferior to the Orion page. Saint will 11:58, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Mesmerizing in its non-notableness. delete. Terrapin 13:36, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • I can't even see anything from this substub that'd be useful on the disambiguation page. Delete. Spatch 18:29, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. And O'Ryan quite clearly isn't derived from Orion! Trilobite (Talk) 02:28, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. And I believe the eytmology of Orion is unknown. The two translations here might be legitimate guesses by genuine linguists, but I'd like to see sources and reasoning. One Greek myth connects the name with "urinating" because Orion was born from an ox's hide onto which Zeus, Poseidon, and Hermes had urinated. Probably folk-etymology. Jallan 02:34, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge with and redirect to Orion, or simply merge and delete. Aecis 22:50, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to Orion. That's the template followed by other disambig pages. ··gracefool | 04:11, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep! The name is legitimate. -- Crevaner 05:49, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
