The above arguments are conclusive: deleted joking aside. The other two were never tagged, and may have slightly different issues, so as a formality I've just tagged them linking to this section of RFD and am not striking this section. IMO delete them per arguments above. &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 05:19, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
