A page simply for the Korean word for Roman alphabet. Such a page would be better off redirecting to Roman alphabet; its existence is redundant. Otherwise, we'd have pages for Luomazi (the Chinese word for "Roman alphabet"), Romanska alfabet, and Romanische alphabet, as well as all foreign-language translations for "Roman alphabet". The page was created by an IP editor when I was six (just kidding, not really), and has not changed much since. A redirect was contested in March 2004, with a pretty non-solid excuse. -- 李博杰 | —Talk contribs email 12:53, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- fails at WP:NOT#DICT. Wiktionary might find a home for it, but it is not encyclopedic content.--Kudpung (talk) 14:30, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]- Merge and redirect to Romanization of Korean. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, but it is a valid search term. Armbrust Talk Contribs 14:43, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to Romanization of Korean.--Shirt58 (talk) 09:34, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Romanization of Korean. `I've withdrawn my Delete vote (although the reason for it is still legitimate). I did not know about the existence of the Romanization of Korean page, and I think Shirt's suggestion is a feasible alternative.--Kudpung (talk) 13:46, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Completely agree with you: just as "Romaji" redirects to Romanization of Japanese, so "Romaja" should redirect to Romanization of Korean--Shirt58 (talk) 14:37, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
