Subtitle (disambiguation)[edit]

Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the discussion was: Procedural close. WP:AFD is the correct venue for disambiguation pages.

Per Talk:Subtitle#Requested move 24 February 2019 the disambiguation page has been handled with a hatnote on Subtitle. SITH (talk) 10:18, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging Wumbolo, Whats new?, Randy Kryn, Netoholic, AjaxSmack, BD2412 as participants of the requested move discussion. SITH (talk) 10:20, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep why is a 2001 mainspace page at MfD? Why in the world wouldyou delete this? At most it should be redirected at Subtitle so existing and future links work Legacypac (talk) 10:27, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Legacypac, as the requested move was successful and the nominator also included the statement about deleting the disambiguation page, as a part of the post-move clean-up process I am obliged to procedurally nominate it. I should have made it clear I have no opinion on this. SITH (talk) 11:00, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. This has history but there are a lot of deleted duplicate articles around the topic of subtitles. wumbolo ^^^ 10:32, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and speedy close - am I the only one that sees three entries on this DAB page? Why would we ever delete a DAB page with more 3 or more entries. More important, this page has SIGNIFICANT history - see this edit which notes a page split. Ridiculous nomination. -- Netoholic @ 10:44, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Netoholic, please see my reply to Legacypac above. And try to be nice, you made your point, there's no point calling an action I was bound to undertake by procedure as ridiculous. SITH (talk) 11:00, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Some level of due care is necessary. We do not nominate for deletion pages with significant edit history. This page's edit history is the very origin of the article now sitting at primary. -- Netoholic @ 11:04, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong forum. DAB pages go to WP:AfD. Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Deletion. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:06, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Procedural close as not a proper MFD. Take to AFD, or don't take to AFD. Robert McClenon (talk) 13:16, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
