Down-ball redirect to Downball
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Down-ball&oldid=1232772302
Hi Mcmatter, there is no Down-ball page nor Down-ball (draft) currently. I'm appreciative that you've added your voice and voted on the Down-ball Deletion Review and so perhaps we can discuss Down-ball redirect to Downball here sometime. Rockycape (talk) 12:45, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Rockycape, you can make the draft page and begin working to demonstrate it's notability there, by working on a new version properly sourced version. Until you submit it for review or stop editing it for 6 months it is safe from deletion or much oversite while you take your time to learn the ways of Wikipedia.

- @Mcmatter Thank you for your suggestions which are much appreciated. Rockycape (talk) 01:16, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- As per the title Down-ball redirect to Downball, I'd like to discuss the switching on of this redirect if that's not off-limits and ok by you. Rockycape (talk) 01:18, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Rockycape, I'm not sure what you mean. There is currently nothing wrong with the redirect. If you go through the the WP:AFC process and draft out an acceptable article the redirect will be deleted and the approved article will take it's place. There is a process for this that has happened time and again. I'm not an admin I can't delete the redirect, I can redirect it if need be but I think right now it is best where it is. The only other issue I could see you having is you think the page was actually removed from view but it's still there when you click on Down-ball it will forward you to Downball but at the top of the page there is a link that will take you back to the redirect page. I would avoid editing this if I were you however, you have already begun to wear on many nerves with this combative uninformed argument style you have taken.

- No that's not what I mean. If you're happy to discuss further please respond back that you are and I'll explain what I mean in the next response. Rockycape (talk) 02:12, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
