– WP:NOPRIMARY. Originally "deadlight" was a redirect to Operation Deadlight, the Allied scuttling of all the surrendered German U-Boots in 1945, when it should really have redirected to porthole. But anyway, in 2012 a video game was inserted where the redirect had been. This was a game that sold 53,000 copies, ironically the same number as the current circa 53,000 ships in the world merchant fleet of the top 15 ship-owning countries, but the game was last updated in 2016 and can't claim to be primary topic over a common nautical term and real world object. However not claiming that the porthole cover is overwhelming primary either. There are some other entertainment uses also.

 * Deadlight (disambiguation) → Deadlight
 * Deadlight → Deadlight (video game)
 * Support per nomination. There are ten entries listed upon the Deadlight (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the 2012 video has been maintaining a historical presence of such a disproportional nature as to overwhelm the combined notability of the remaining nine entries. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:44, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
