- Delete I mostly agree with the edit summary left by the person who blanked the redirect. "Virtual nation" isn't a synonym for "fictional country"; while that isn't dispositive, since synonymy is hardly the only grounds for redirection, the term "virtual" doesn't appear in the original redirect target, fictional country, and "virtual national" implies to me something like an online community that simulates the operation of a country, which is completely different from anything covered at the redirect target. Therefore, I consider the redirect to be inaccurate and misleading. Largoplazo (talk) 15:16, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Wrong forum This should be taken to WP:RFD Iffy★Chat -- 15:59, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree. I've boldly removed the AFD tag, restored the original redirect, and submitted the page to RFD. Can someone wrap this discussion up? Largoplazo (talk) 16:23, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
