Merger proposal

This content of this page does not reflect its title. The content is one example of a Computer host naming scheme. It is not about Computer host naming schemes in general, let along Naming schemes in general. The external reference is poor (the particular example does not occur in the referred RFC 1178). The link to Geospatial network seems hardly relevant. A proper page about naming scheme would describe possible syntaxes, refer to Identifier and Unique identifier.

I propose to delete this page, and make it redirect to Naming convention, until a better content is found. If deletion is not desirable, an alternative resolution is to rename this page to Naming scheme (Networking) or Computer host naming scheme. MacFreek (talk) 23:49, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, Naming scheme seems to be a specific application of Naming convention but I don't think merging this content there is appropriate (and I don't think you are suggesting doing this). I'm going to close the merge proposal. I'm find to discuss renaming this article. Also fine to discuss deleting it. ~Kvng (talk) 18:26, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
