• Obvious redirect -- Previous name to the game, plausible search term. Should have
  WP:BOLDly redirected in the first place instead of taking to AfD. --Teancum (talk) 13:57, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply

I am keeping options open for now. Its former name is indeed Astronaut: Moon, Mars and Beyond but we will decide this base on consensus since I have already started the AfD process.--Bumblezellio (talk) 06:42, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• The Starlite article is actually a separate article made years after this one was. Would there be anything that needs to be merged since in most cases when a game changes its name the existing article is renamed opposed to a second article being created under the new name?--174.93.171.10 (talk) 23:33, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect - Per Teancum. Probably mention the old name briefly in the lead and Development section. Sergecross73 msg me 17:41, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Close and Redirect - seems obvious. Better to not waste time and close this now, I think.

• Redirect and
  WP:HISTMERGE. Seems like a bad copy-paste move. Deletion shouldn't be done due to attribution. The target article is the correct newer name. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 10:13, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply

• Ditto to what Hellknowz said. -Thibbs (talk) 18:35, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect and merge. Clearly a copy/paste move at some point. The original name presents a useful redirect and it is already used in a number of articles. --Odie5533 (talk) 16:00, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
