Hi Xymmax, I hope all is well. I was wondering if you'd be willing to overturn to redirect. Three editors supported redirecting, two of whom provided reasoning based on P&Gs, while the one !keep vote basically amounted to WP:ILIKEIT. Best, voorts (talk/contributions) 15:16, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Additionally, at the very least everyone in the discussion agreed (or did not contest) that the violin DAB page should be redirected. voorts (talk/contributions) 15:31, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Greetings. I considered the My oh my/Mushy Yank contributions to be more substantive than ILIKEIT, as the editor was to a greater or lesser extent grappling with how to present searchers with the information that they most likely sought, which furthers the general purpose of redirects and DAB pages. The editor's view did not reach consensus, but it did not appear to me that redirect for the piano sonata DAB did either. However, on further reading I think you're correct about the violin sonata, and I will reclose that as redirect. Thanks for stopping by.
