The result was redirect to Yvoire. Redirects are cheap. Black Kite 08:38, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find a place named "Evoir" in France. It seems that the creator of this article was referring to Yvoire. Korg (talk) 20:59, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Yvoire, then. -- Eastmain (talk) 21:35, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Yep, should be speedily redirected. Lazulilasher (talk) 23:21, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I originally considered the redirect, but I thought the spelling was rather implausible... Korg (talk) 23:46, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Could be, but I can't find a mention of Evoir in France either (especially so near Geneve). Yvoire is legit. Lazulilasher (talk) 00:33, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete- no redirect then we'd have redirects for every possible typo variant on the whole of Wikipedia. And two short sentences hardly warrants a keep... --Fred McGarry (talk) 11:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's reasonable to have redirects for mis-spellings that people have been so confident about that they have begun a new article on the subject at them. If one person makes the mistake, others will in the future. Deleting the article just leaves us open to further cycles of mistake→new article→deletion discussion in the future, as this happens all over again. Redirecting the article, on the other hand, takes all future readers to the right place and prevents everyone's time being wasted with any further such cycles.
