Talk:Billy Hartnell

Delete
Well, "Billy" is not just a diminutive form spoken in disrespect. Quotes can be found to suggest that people within the BBC called him Billy. For instance, Gerry Davis has said, "I got on well with Billy Hartnell", and Bill Russell was known to call him Billy. Likewise he was often called Bill. I say if adding a redirect for a shortened form of the name won't describe another person, the redirect should stay, in order to be used when various quotes are appropriately incorporated into articles. Again, just because a redirect isn't being used doesn't mean it won't or can't be used.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍  15:22, January 9, 2011 (UTC)
