Inappropriate redirect[edit]

Redirecting this article to another that has no related content is vandalism. I'm reverting the redirect. If you wish to delete this article, recommend it to AfD. Yappy2bhere (talk) 03:00, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

*Sigh* Whatever. See you at the AfD. --Explodicle (T/C) 16:00, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No need to sigh and roll your eyes like a pre-teen girl whose lipstick's been confiscated by her mother. I understand that you want to expand the options for defective articles beyond "keep or delete", and that you believe redirection is the best available alternative. You may be right; certainly I agree that there should be a better way to keep WP "respectable" without sacrificing marginal but potentially serviceable content.

However, you appear to using article redirection as de facto deletion in order to avoid soliciting the opinions of other interested editors. Troubling enough, but you've redirected some articles, like this one, to a topic that doesn't even mention the now elliptic article, which convinces me, if not you, of the value of soliciting outside opinion before rejiggering the steam pipes. I didn't understand before you nominated Jaikoz for deletion that "Redirect" was a possible verdict in AfD, but now that I do I think that AfD may truly be the best forum for this sort of discussion.

Bombshells → Bombshells_(M*A*S*H) — To avoid confusion, since people looking for bombshells can be looking for something other than this episode. -- Dream Focus 06:31, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom & the fact that M*A*S*H episodes have (M*A*S*H) a part of the article title. GoodDay (talk) 16:15, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support, and either delete the page name Bombshells or make it a redirect to Bombshell (disambiguation). Consider also whether Bombshell should be moved to Bombshell (sex symbol) or similar, and Bombshell (disambiguation) moved to the ambiguous base name. --Una Smith (talk) 18:23, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Of course, this article might instead be deleted. Those in favor of moving this article will also want to comment at the AfD discussion for Bombshells. Yappy2bhere (talk) 19:28, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The AfD is closed, result is keep. --Una Smith (talk) 21:17, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support - See also my comment at the AfD. --Explodicle (T/C) 20:45, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and retarget to the dab, as Una Smith and the anonymous contributor below describe. --Explodicle (T/C) 18:25, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. warrior 4321 22:03, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support and retarget the resultant redirect to the dab page. 76.66.201.33 (talk) 05:46, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Bombshells (MASH) and Bombshells (Mash) should also redirect to the article. 70.29.214.58 (talk) 05:03, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I just tried to close this debate and move the article, but apparently Bombshells (M*A*S*H) is on a blacklist. PCHS-NJROTC ^(Messages) 03:21, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

All names with asterisks are blacklisted. The page can be moved, but only an administrator can do it. This page is queued, but currently there is a backlog of move requests dating to November 30. Since there is no dissent, you might speed things up by listing the move as an uncontroversial request. Yappy2bhere (talk) 04:48, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
