This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was keep.

The type of "keep", however, is unclear. Only four of the 11 voters argued to "keep as is". Many argued to "keep as merge or redirect". After reviewing both articles, I am going to redirect it. If the content is ever expanded to the point that it no longer fits within the SLA article, it can be broken out as a separate article at that time. Rossami (talk) 04:05, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
