This redirect was requested to be rerouted to Declaration of independence on 23 March 2011. The result of the discussion was "No consensus" (1 June 2011).

Reroute

This REDIRECT should go to the same phrase with different capitalization. That article has a hatnote for those who are searching for the US version, so they will quickly go there. Perhaps when readers are taken first to the general article on D of Is', they will learn a thing or two? – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX ) 15:24, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the hatnote I mentioned above has been eliminated and rightly so. This redirect should not link back to the USDoI for the same reason the hatnote was eliminated— systemic bias. Since nobody appears to want to discuss this here, I have taken the disagreement to the talk page of the target where this redirect should link. Please discuss it there or here as you desire. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX ) 08:42, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Following discussion on the above linked talk page, there was no consensus to reroute this redirect to Declaration of independence. – Paine Ellsworth ( CLIMAX ) 02:29, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
