- Delete - likely to be a permastub. No prejudice against merging. Wikipedia isn't a directory of units. There is a precedent that we don't want these related articles per previous AfDs, as well. — kikichugirl speak up! 02:33, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to Chain (unit)#Ramsden's chain and possibly add a little more information about what "square" means. A chain consists of 100 links (each link is a length of metal; they are linked together)—see Gunter's chain. Links were different sizes at different places/times. A "square chain" is the area of a square where the length of each side is one chain. Ramsden's chain is at Chain (unit)#Ramsden's chain, and if it were felt necessary, that section could spell out that a Ramsden's link is one hundredth of a Ramsden's chain. There is a Link (unit) article, but I don't think that should be padded out because a link is simply part of a chain, and the encyclopedic information should be at the chain article. See WP:Articles for deletion/Aum (unit) for more information. Johnuniq (talk) 09:35, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

- Redirect to Chain (unit)#Ramsden's chain. Not notable enough for independent article, but seems appropriate as part of the Chain (unit) article. Piboy51 (talk) 20:38, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect: to Chain (unit)#Ramsden's chain - Seems better to redirect than delete imho. –Davey2010Talk 23:35, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
