[edit] Starbuck (Battlestar Galactica)

This is a redundant disambiguation page. Both examples listed below are included on the main Starbuck disambiguation page. "Starbuck (Battlestar Galactica)" is an unlikely search term. Users already mariginally familiar with either series would use Lieutenant Starbuck, Kara Thrace or a derivative as their search terms and find what they wanted, or be sent to the main Starbuck disambig page.

• Delete per nom. Use the main "Starbuck" disambiguation page. Wavy G 00:45, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep or redirect, likely link term. Kappa 05:29, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I can certainly understand why one might like this page delted, as it is redundant, but it is important, as if we do delete it, people will just recreate a page for one character or the other as they search. If we redirect, which one should we redirect too? I say keep it as it is, its not doing anybody any harm, and is helping people who may be searching... EnsRedShirt 10:58, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to the main disambiguation page for Starbuck; there's no need to keep this page separate. Just take the already-extant two BSG links in the Starbuck disambig page and separate them off to highlight them. If I hadn't been dinged before for altering content under AfD discussion I'd be bold and do it now. Alba 14:42, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Per nom, and due to redundancy. --Shrieking Harpy ^Talk|Count 15:25, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Although I know 2-item dabs are a no-no, this is a reasonable one. It is conceivable that someone writing an article on either version of BSG, or the actors involved, could simply do their own dab on the fly, leading to possible confusion. 23skidoo 16:04, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete or Redirect to Starbucks Starbuck. --Nehwyn 18:39, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete or Redirect to Starbuck, but not Starbucks like Neh said. That's the coffee place. Anomo 03:14, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Whoops. =) --Nehwyn 06:39, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

• Keep — 23skidoo states it well. Matthew Fenton (talk · contribs · count · email) 11:47, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
