Hi Richardcavell. I came across Tolly Carr while working on another article where a source is cited written by someone who has the same name. You created a redirect for "Tolly Carr" to WXII-TV back in 2009, but I cannot find anything in the WXII article about Carr. So, I'm just curious as to why you created the redirect. Maybe there was once something in the article written about Carr which has now since been removed? -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:26, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
- Hi. It was a while ago now. Tolly Carr was an anchor from that station who was in the news at the time. I think that he's notable enough for a redirect, since there has been media commentary about his case. But I'm happy for you to do whatever you think is proper. - Richard Cavell (talk) 12:47, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
- Redirects are cheap so a redirect wouldn't really be an issue if there was some content about him in the station's article; however, he's not even mentioned by name a single time in the article, at least not in the current version of the article. There was a section titled "Former personalities" previously in the article [1] which is probably why you created the redirect, but that section has been trimmed quite a bit and the mention of Carr appears to have been removed here in July 2012. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:22, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
- I still think he's notable enough for a redirect, but you can take it to RfD if you wish to advocate for the redirect to be deleted. - Richard Cavell (talk) 14:43, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
- I've asked for some other opinions on this at WT:RE#Redirecting of Tolly Carr. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:25, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
