The result was keep. ~~None but the nominator opined in favor of deletion (or merger).~~ Xymmax ^{So let it be written} _{So let it be done} 00:45, 2 March 2010 (UTC) I struck through the above after Verbal, the nominator, brought to my attention that it's incorrect to state that only the nominator favored merger. So, I will simply indicate that that no one except the nominator favored deletion, and that while a plurality including the nom favored merger, the overall rough consensus was to keep.

Outline of life extension

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Redundant due to Index of life extension-related articles and List of life extension-related topics (should redirect here perhaps), not to mention Life extension categories and the Life extension article itself. A WP:CFORK which is simply a poor duplicate - the Life extension article with all the information removed. Verbal chat 20:41, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - part of the WP:OOK and definitely a keeper. Note that List of life extension-related topics is a redirect to Index of life extension-related articles. Wikipedia has a set of indexes and a set of outlines. They provide alternate means of navigation: indexes are linear alphabetized lists, outlines are lists structured by subject. The synergistic relationship between lists (of which outlines are a type) and categories is explained at WP:CLN. The Transhumanist 21:08, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
keep Outlines appear to serve a different function than the lists and are therefore not redundant. Artw (talk) 23:19, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Please explain this function. Thanks, Verbal chat 20:35, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A sensible aid to navigation between our numerous articles. Colonel Warden (talk) 22:50, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Template:Life extension, as insufficient in scope to warrant a separate outline. (I say this as a strong supporter of the Outline project in general. Just not in this particular case.) -- Quiddity (talk) 21:00, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I would support a merge to the template. Verbal chat 21:39, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
