Rikimaru Chikada

Singer and dancer who does not individually satisfy musical notability. This page was declined twice as a draft, was manually moved to article space once, moved back to draft space, and manually moved to article space again. The article has been reference-bombed and the references are not being checked. The article should speak for itself, but only speaks for the subject as a member of two groups, Into1 and WARPs UP (which has also been manually moved into article space). Moving this back to draft space a second time would be move-warring. The community should delete or redirect. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:20, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy. It needs a lot of work. A lot, almost to the point of WP:TNT. Bearian (talk) 20:19, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, redirect is fine with me. Bearian (talk) 16:23, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Into1#Members (with the history preserved under the redirect) per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. Preserving the history will allow editors to do a selective merge to the target article and to undo the redirect if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future.
