Hi! I redirected UndoTV to TechTV where UndoTV is already discussed. I think expanding the information there about UndoTV is appropriate, and if this venture takes off, and enough information becomes available, then a separate article would be warranted. At that time, the redirect can simply be made into a then proper article on UndoTV. Presently, there's little to discuss but surmise about an inchoate venture which violates Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. By the way, some new users have trouble finding the history of redirected articles, which in this case you might wish to access in order to mine there for my suggested expansion of TechTV. To get to the redirected article, click on UndoTV, then click on "Redirected from UndoTV" at the top of the article. Once you see the redirect, go into the history of the page and click on the date prior to the redirection. From there you can take any text you'd like.--Fuhghettaboutit 20:56, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
- That really is a wonderful response. Many new users simply get angry when their first article is proposed for deletion, redirected or otherwise deprecated (as happens with many first articles), taking it as a personal attack. We need new contributors, and I was hoping this wouldn't sour you on the site in general, despite that I felt the action was proper. I hope you stick around and please, if you have any problems, technical difficulties, etc. (there is a huge learning curve here), do not hesitate to drop by my talk page.--Fuhghettaboutit 03:28, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
