This redirect currently targets Spider Riders but this singers work is too extensive for a redirect to target just one article. See the corresponding article at the Japanese Wikipedia. Allen4names 18:23, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep, with possibility of expansion to a DAB page. JohnCD (talk) 10:03, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure whether most people who search for the term “fullness” mean the theological term. Is there any way to get statistics on this? Bwrs (talk) 17:27, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - If there are other encyclopedic uses of the term, the page should simply be extended into a disambiguation page. Neelix (talk) 18:56, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Given that someone has orphaned the redirect, there is no way to know how editors have been using the term. This, by the way, is one of the reasons why we are explicitly told not to "clean up" pages merely to avoid redirects. Rossami (talk) 20:57, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment from nominator: I originally intended to make this a disambiguation page, but thought it would be better to start a discussion here first. By the way, how do we know that somebody orphaned the redirect, as opposed to nobody ever having linked to it in the first place? Bwrs (talk) 07:57, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Be bold! Or maybe float the idea on the two Talk pages. But there is no need to open a discussion here to convert a page to disambiguation. To your other question about how to know that this was orphaned, there are some tricks you can play with the Wayback Machine and queries you can run directly against a downloaded copy of the database but the first is unreliable and the second tedious. In this case, I happened to remember seeing them years ago and was surprised to find Whatlinkshere now empty. Rossami (talk)
