Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Disambiguations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Disambiguations. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Disambiguations|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Disambiguations.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Disambiguations[edit]

Patricia Quinn (disambiguation)[edit]

Patricia Quinn (disambiguation) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No need for this dab page, per WP:ONEOTHER. Users can hardly know of its existence since it is not even hatnoted atop Patricia Quinn, where the hatnote only states, "For the American scientist, see Patricia Quinn (atmospheric chemist). For similar names, see Pat Quinn (disambiguation)." If preferred, instead of deletion, Patricia Quinn (disambiguation) can simply exist as a redirect to the Pat Quinn dab page. — Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 17:46, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment It was decided that the British/Irish actress was the primary topic, and the American actress would be better called "Pat Quinn". So this page might be unnecessary, but we do have the two "see also" entries. PatGallacher (talk) 18:35, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete I'm leaning towards the view that these "see also" entries are not enough to justify having this page. PatGallacher (talk) 18:45, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      I don't really have strong feelings either way, but I am still a little confused. What happened to Patricia Quinn (American actress)? She was lost entirely. DaffodilOcean (talk) 18:57, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      Oh wait - I see, the American actress is now Pat Quinn, under the see also. DaffodilOcean (talk) 18:58, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. There is no reason to exclude Patricia Quinn (American actress) from this page, merely because the subject also fits on another page. "Pat" is her common name, "Patricia" is her given name. BD2412 T 19:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Pat Quinn (American actress)'s name is Patricia (and the IMDB entry is in that name [1]): there are three entries on the page. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I did a little digging at newspapers.com and discovered that Patricia Quinn the American actress wanted to be called Patricia, but the producer of her first hit movie didn't like the name and insisted she be called Pat. To me that's enough reason to keep all three names listed on a dab page.[1] DaffodilOcean (talk) 02:47, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of constituencies of Gujarat[edit]

List of constituencies of Gujarat (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

There is no specific list for the parliamentary constituencies in Gujarat, only the list for the legislative assembly constituencies in Gujarat exists. Thus disambiguation page is not needed. — Hemant Dabral (📞) 04:54, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Politics-related deletion discussions. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:22, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - a valid disambiguation page. The list of parliamentary constituencies in Gujarat is a section within a separate page, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that List of constituencies of Gujarat isn’t a term that could be used to refer to that sub-list. As far as I can tell, this phrase is one that can be used to refer to both lists, and this is therefore a valid dab page - per WP:D2D, there is more than one existing Wikipedia article to which [this]…phrase might be expected to lead. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten[meow] 09:46, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: It's definitely a helpful page that very well distinguishes the two pages from each other and allows the user to choose which page to select. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 19:02, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Violin Sonata in B minor[edit]

Violin Sonata in B minor (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This disambiguation page is redundant of Sonata in B minor, which was originally at this title before a page move. The redirect was then reverted. The two sonatas listed here are already covered at Sonata in B minor (a broader disambiguation page). Additionally, one of the sonatas listed here (Sonata in B minor (Atterberg)) is only a partial-title match because it is generically for strings, not solely for violin. I propose restoring the redirect. I am also nominating the following page for redirecting as well since it is also redundant:

Piano Sonata in B minor (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) voorts (talk/contributions) 19:48, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
