Principle (disambiguation)Principle – The article Principle is a poor dicdef article which first gives a dictionary definition, and then gives an awkward list of some principles, and no references, too. The subject is perfectly covered by the disambiguation page, similar to Guidance, Directorship, etc.Staszek Lem (talk) 15:15, 16 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • Comment – this request is not well formed until you say what you propose to do with Principle. If you want it to disappear, you probably need to take it to AfD. If you want to move it or merge it, you need to say where. Dicklyon (talk) 23:50, 16 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Speedy procedural close this move is dependent on an AfD, so can never be implemented without the AfD passing, if this is supported, but the AFD fails, then this will automatically fail regardless. -- 76.65.128.222 (talk) 05:49, 17 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
That's not really how we handle simultaneous RMs and AfDs (the simplest solution is to not close the RM while the AfD is open), and besides, the AfD has been closed as speedy keep. --BDD (talk) 17:37, 17 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
Keeping at the AfD means this request automatically fails, since it is dependent on the other article not existing (there's no point to move this to "Principle (something else)"). And if the other article doesn't exist, then it is a simple technical move for a malplaced dab page. -- 76.65.128.222 (talk) 06:27, 18 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
