The result was speedy keep, valid redirect. Yes, there is a potential for more than one topic, but until such articles are created, this does not need to be a dab page with only one entry. Leave as redirect for now, convert to dab if articles on other churches in Clontarf are written. AKRadecki 16:42, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clontarf church

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

This "article" and a number more, all of which relate to multiple potential topics, appears to have been created only to be a redirect to one such topic, which has its own article and is findable in search. Clontarf has at least 6 churches, belonging to at least four different denominations. SeoR 16:02, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Disambg no need for deletion. Whsitchy 16:04, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
  • I could buy that, although it does not apply to say, C of i, another of this set, at all - but there was no ambiguity to be disambiguated. 217.213.100.112 16:06, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Concern is simple, should redirects be created to "capture" users searching for a general term, such as "C of i", which could have many other meanings, or a term like "Clontarf Protestants", when the area has many communities of Protestants, and en masse (some seem valid but were they needed?, the search engine finds the page anyway); some examples:
08:40, 24 May 2007 C of i (←Redirected page to Clontarf Church of Ireland) 
08:35, 24 May 2007 Clontarf protestants (←Redirected page to Clontarf Church of Ireland) 
08:35, 24 May 2007 Clontarf protestant (←Redirected page to Clontarf Church of Ireland) 
08:34, 24 May 2007 Clontarf protestant church (←Redirected page to Clontarf Church of Ireland

If I, and others, misunderstand and this is a valid way to use redirects, fine. SeoR 16:18, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they appear to fit the same pattern:

C of i (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Clontarf parish (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

I will leave it at that, will go do other editing later. SeoR 16:20, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
