Redistricting warrant (now moved to Texas Ten)

Delete source material. There is no such thing in law as a "redistricting warrant." Gazpacho 05:16, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Consists of nothing but the original source material, and the title is inaccurate. Firebug 06:55, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Historic event--I even heard of this in London. Moved to Texas Ten. Marked for cleanup. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 23:51, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Of course the underlying incident is well-known and encyclopedic, but at the time this was nominated for VFD, the article contained nothing but a scan of the arrest warrant (which was misleadingly titled Redistricting warrant). Firebug 00:39, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as the artcle now deals with the underlying incident. I would like to see it moved to 2003 Texas redistricting controversy or some such title rather than the ambiguous Texas Ten. The Redistricting warrant redirect could probably be safely deleted. Dsmdgold 01:53, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)
  • Feel free to move it where you like. I have no special preferences and your title would be more descriptive if seen in a category listing. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 00:28, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • I probably will move it once the VfD is done with. Dsmdgold 19:32, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as rewritten. Gazpacho 03:59, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
