Mike, I won't revert your edit since your an admin, but I do want to discuss them so I can understand your reasoning. Dab pages exist to redirect people to the article they actually want. Ergo, those things w/o articles are superfluous to the purpose of a dab page. Aside from that, I fail to see why you kept three things which don't have articles but have articles on things associated with them, but dropped the fourth thing, which fits the same description. Why the disparity? Also, I think it is prudent to do what we can to discourage nn entries on these pages, to avoid people trying to spam and promote their websites on these pages, which is what triggered this whole thing. Thanks for any explanation given, Mike. Carl.bunderson (talk) 00:47, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Being presented with the Mop-and-Bucket didn't make me any better an editor than you are, Carl; your questions are extremely reasonable. I retained the three things for which a case might conceivably be made for the creation of an actual article: a novel by a major novelist, a feature-length film, and a network television series; in case an article is ever crafted about any of them. I dropped the fourth, an issue of a fairly obscure comic book, as there are very few individual issues of comics which become notable enough for their own articles. --Orange Mike | Talk 00:56, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
:) Ok so how do I determine what things to delete on notability issues and what not to? Kinda just using the criterion u gave up there? Even if it doesn't have an article, if it reasonably could in the future? My deletions were pretty much in accord with what I do, and see done, on the pages of like years and days: if it doesn't have a wikilink, it gets deleted as nn.
