Tarquin,

I would argue against the suggested merger. Foo is used often enough to deserve an entry of its own, albeit one that mostly sends users elsewhere. Metasyntactic variable is a little too esoteric an article title for the general reader trying to make sense of this foo thing. From here they can go off to investigate higher abstraction in programming lingo.

I dunno, I can't imagine what information could be here that isn't covered by the paragraph there. Also, note that this article is "FOO". foo is already a redirect. I'm therefore going to redirect this one, too. It only has two incoming links anyway: an erroneous one from the auto-generated list of acronyms, and one example phrase which sort of looks good with all-caps, cos it mentions "the FOO protocol". - IMSoP 22:25, 11 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
