Talk:NUL

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page was created for the meaning of the ASCII NUL character, and 3 out of the 4 pages linking to here refer to this meaning. So I think it should be at least a disambig. page and it is not harmful if it does not redirect any more directly to National Urban League.

Below some data as of today, March 13, 2006 :

The following pages link to here: View (previous 50) (next 50) (20 | 50 | 100 | 250 | 500).

  • (cur) (last) 22:16, 14 December 2005 User:Webmaster Pete (This is the direct acronym of the National Urban League, and therefore, is best used for that instead of a typo/other spelling redirect.)

I created the separate NUL (disambiguation) page which I now wanted to move here, but since this did not work, I redirect to it. — MFH:Talk 19:36, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

better leave as is ?

[edit]

I wanted to make the move, and as this didn't succeed, I posted a "move request" -- but finally, maybe it's better as it is now? Since on one hand, the NUL (disambiguation) page merits exactly this name, and one could imagine that in the future, a page would be written for something which is really called NUL (like e.g. the nonprintable ASCII character...) so that it would be justified to start the page like

"This page is about NUL, the xxx.
 For other uses of NUL, especially as acronym or initialism, see NUL (disambiguation)."

So I'll leave the decision to the people who have more power and a better sense for judgement than me... — MFH:Talk 20:30, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
