[edit] Astaire

Astaire (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Quite simply, there is nothing here that needs to be disambiguated in this way. Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 01:47, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep - there isn't? It looks valid to me. --Haemo 01:52, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
    • Well, I'm reasonably certain - to the point that I think it could be G6'd, but I thought I'd go for concensus. See, I see Fred and Adele, but that I see, they're never referred to by their last name only when referenced, without context; Astaire, the stockbroking company, is redlinked, and possibly with good reason; Blondfire, while previously known as Astaire, needed to rename, so that might be questionable. that leaves Astair Airlines - one link. I'll hedge to concensus, but that's my story and I'ma gonna stick to it. =^_^= --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 02:10, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per above. JJL 02:06, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Very weak keep. You bring up some valid points Dennis, but there's just barely enough need for this page that it ought to be kept. Groupthink 02:15, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. There's enough here and we've got room. I'm visualizing a user who remembers some balding guy who can dance a little named Astaire... Clarityfiend 02:32, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Clarityfiend, but I can also imagine someone who used to like the band Blondfire before it changed its name, and wants to look it up. Having the disambig page would I think be appropriate. --Charlene 04:32, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - while I don't think it's incredibly likely that someone will type in "Astaire" as a search term, the possiblitiy exists and disambig pages are cheap. No real reason to delete this. Otto4711 06:12, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep or Move to Astaire (disambiguation) and Astaire to redirect to Fred Astaire. Magioladitis 07:24, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Definitely the latter, that's an ideal solution. Groupthink 07:33, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
