Rationale[edit]

@Montanabw, Rosiestep, and Victuallers: If this fictional character has no independent notability and there is an actual person with the name of Eleanor Harding who is notable, is the best course of action to just write the article over the redirect or invent some title, like Eleanor Harding (aborigine)? Seems to me that rewriting over the redirect makes more sense, but I don't know if there is a "rule". Thanks! SusunW (talk) 23:29, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it was redirected to the appropriate target. That said, in these situations, I would suggest a "round robin" move that makes this title free to use. I would write the article with the "invented" title, then ping us when you need the move Rosie is an admin, I think Victuallers is, and I have page mover rights, so any of us can make it happen.

Agree with Montana regarding plan of action. And when we need the cavalry for complicated moves, there's Drmies. --Rosiestep (talk) 13:19, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? Complicated moves? I wouldn't count on my intellect too much--I'm more like a mass of unthinking weight: if you throw me in the right direction I can be useful.

OK, in this case, I would suggest simply hijacking the redirect, and then placing a hatnote on the article, "for the Trollope character, see Barchester_Towers#Others". (I also don't know about rules, but this makes sense--plus, I've done it before, haha, and got away with it.) Drmies (talk) 15:55, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Montanabw, Rosiestep, and Victuallers: I didn't get notified of Drmies post, so created the "invented" article here: User:SusunW/Eleanor Harding (activist). Can someone help me move it and tell me when it is moved so I can do the talk pages, categories, add the fair use photo, etc.? Thanks! SusunW (talk) 21:11, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
