Jon Edwards → John Edwards (disambiguation)

The result of the debate was retargeted. -- John Reaves 21:48, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that, although "Jon" and "John" are easily mixed up, Jon Edwards would be better off redirecting to Jonathan Edwards (disambiguation), as "Jon" is the natural contraction of the name "Jonathan". PeeJay 12:19, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment perhaps it would be best to merge John Edwards dab page into Jonathan Edwards dab page as well. 132.205.99.122 20:27, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Per nom, I will "be bold" and make the suggested change. Since this is a content issue, not a question of deletion, I think it's a valid suggestiong to link "Jon" to "Jonathan". I'll also make the mutual links between "Jon" and "John" clearer. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 03:03, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Jon and John are two completely different names with two completely different cognates. Just put links between them under "See also". Reginmund 22:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm afraid I don't understand your vote, given your reasoning. I am proposing that Jon Edwards redirect to Jonathan Edwards (disambiguation) instead of John Edwards (disambiguation) as it does now. Going by your reasoning, I assume you agree with me, so you should probably change your vote to Support. - PeeJay 22:49, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Jonathan Edwards (disambiguation) - Jon is a nickname of Jonathan and not John. Chris DHDR 21:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unfunny → Wikipedia

The result of the debate was speedy-deleted (again) as vandalism. Not sure that it deserves salting yet. The vandalism is, so far, fairly routine. Rossami (talk) 16:05, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to have been created by a vandal. Nobody calls Wikipedia "unfunny" except Encyclopedia Dramatica anyway, and it's neither notable nor reliable. Consider salting the page "unfunny" if this gets deleted, which it almost certainly will (log indicates that this page has been deleted several times before). h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 11:42, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

LEGEND → Legend (song)

The result of the debate was The result was retarget to Legend Phoenix-wiki (talk · contribs) 20:34, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Links directly to a stub article regarding a musical artist's song, which does not contain a Disambiguation link. I believe it would be more appropriate to redirect to Legend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Counterpart0 (talk • contribs) 19:20, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Legend. I don't see a rationale for having the capitalized version redirect to the song. I could see it going to the disambig page, but there's no reason why the song would have more weight than the others. It's more understandable that a user would accidentally have their caps lock on.

Delete. I can't see what it has to do with either Legend (song) or Legend. Chris DHDR 21:07, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
