MemCheck

Uncited mention of how the term is used by multiple people. Half of the article's text lists similar terms. Not encyclopedic nor a dictionary definition. – voidxor ^{(talk | contrib)} 09:01, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Memory debugger. MemCheck is the name for a few different programs that perform memory debugging functions to test software programs. There are already two MemCheck entries and a Valgrind entry in the list of debugging programs at Memory debugger, so the article is a natural target. I recommend redirect instead of deletion because I think MemCheck could be a popular search term for this kind of program. It's unclear whether this article has any content useful to merge into Memory debugger. --Mark viking (talk) 00:47, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That makes good sense to me. But as the nominator, I'm not going to "vote". – voidxor ^{(talk | contrib)} 06:08, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Memory debugger; Hal Duston's Memory Allocation Checker (see [1]) seems to be the only content from this article worth a one-sentence mention (but not an entire section) inside Memory debugger. Toffanin (talk) 19:58, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
