Talk:Copyright Expiration Day

Google doesn't confirm that this "day" even exists. Googling for "Copyright Expiration Day" -wikipedia -wiki -encyclopedia finds 30 hits, all of which appear to be mirrors of this article. I'm going to make it a redirect to United States copyright law, though nominating it at WP:VFD might also be a good idea. dbenbenn | talk 03:40, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Have you effectively deleted the old article though? There was text and this link here that does not appear in the redirect. I *might* agree that this ought to be cleaned up/merged then deleted, but it seems some information (which may not be accurate) has been lost. Wikipedia database problems stop me from investigating further (and VFD is beyond my limited browser's capacity). -Wikibob | Talk 13:47, 2005 Mar 28 (UTC)

Should this page exist at all?

I was searching for an article on "expiration", of the non-physiological kind. The article on "expiration" contains no hint of another sense of the word, but I eventually landed on Copyright Expiration Day. This page redirects to United States copyright law, but that article contains no use of the word "expiration", nor of "expire", nor of "expiry." For that matter, it doesn't contain the word "day." It seems like a redirect should only be to an article that covers the subject. (What I was actually trying to find was a discussion of expiration dates as the last day of validity or coverage or effectiveness vs. the first day of the lack of same). I'd recommend deleting this page altogether, since anyone searching for "Copyright Expiration Day" is bound to be disappointed, and anyone searching for "copyright" will find the other page.
