Onion dome[edit]

Website promo. No evidence of notability. Googling for "theoniondome.+com" yields about 100 hits. Delete, or maybe redirect? "Onion dome" is a term used in English for an architectural feature of Orthodox churches, but we don't have an article on that topic, apparently. Wile E. Heresiarch 02:29, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC) Update: The article has been rewritten. Vfd withdrawn. Thanks a lot to TenOfAllTrades for stepping in! Wile E. Heresiarch 03:33, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Vanity. Delete and redirect as Wile suggests. Radiant! 10:12, Feb 28, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. Get rid of the website promo, but I've created a substitute article on the architectural feature on the talk page. Thoughts? --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 17:45, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • Well, how about if we move the new page to onion dome (lowercase letters) and redirect Onion Dome to that. I guess if you're willing to do that then I'll just withdraw this vfd. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:24, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
      • You're right; I missed the capitalization. I'll make the move, since it doesn't seem that anyone is going to miss the old version of the article. Checking the 'what links here' reveals that there were a few redlinks waiting for the architectural onion dome article to appear and no references to the Onion Dome website. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 00:53, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Unless it can be somehow proven that this website affects a number of Orthodox Christians, delete. History21

  • Comment. The article has been rewritten, and replaced with content about onion domes, the distinctive architectural features of Russian Orthodox churches. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 00:54, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, n. —RaD Man (talk) 04:47, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, agree with Radiant. Megan1967 05:56, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. TenofAllTrades has done a good job. Notable feature of Russian architecture. Capitalistroadster 09:53, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
