This appears to be a disambiguation page, but articles do not exist for the two links in it. Eddie Blick (talk) 01:46, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Pretty sure this falls under WP:SPEEDY so this may not even be necessary. Kamalthebest (talk) 04:10, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Shawn in Montreal: It'd be G6, specifically pt 2: Deleting a disambiguation page that links to zero articles or to only one extant article and whose title includes "(disambiguation)". -- Tavix (talk) 16:46, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
However, I just noticed that it's labeled as a stub, not a disambiguation page. One could make an argument that it's simply mislabeled, since it looks awfully like a dab to me... -- Tavix (talk) 16:50, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yet the awkwardly worded G6 guideline suggests to me that it doesn't need to include (disambiguation) if it has zero bluelinks, for G6 to apply? I had to read that sentence several times. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:58, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think I can see the confusion. It's two different scenarios joined by that or. Would it make more sense if it was phrased "Deleting a disambiguation page that links to zero (extant) articles or deleting a disambiguation page that links to only one extant article and whose title includes "(disambiguation)"."? -- Tavix (talk) 17:07, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If we both understand it correctly (?), yes, that was pretty much how I thought it should be worded... Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:13, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I've always found that bullet point of G6 lacking clarity-wise.— Godsy (TALKCONT) 20:18, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Upon looking into the problem, I've found the language at {{db-disambig}} is so much less confusing. I've replaced that bullet point with the language from that template. Fingers crossed, I think the problem has been solved. -- Tavix (talk) 21:01, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There are no 3-pentenes. -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:45, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
