Talk:Gothic

Gothic Language
The primary meaning of "Gothic" is Gothic language. I think this page should redirect to Gothic language and this page be moved to Gothic (disambiguation). In fact, we might as well move the language article here and dump the disambiguator because all "Gothic"s are most likely a lot less notable. And to pre-empt any protests about uses of Gothic as an adjective in titles, keep in mind that articles like Gothic alphabet and Gothic literature are the equivalents of German cuisine or French fries; titles that can never be referred to by just the adjective.

 * Wrong. Wikipedia's link "Goth" and "Gothic" all the time.  Goth was directed to Goth Subculture until I changed it.  For the majority of cases this was right, but for Alaric I it was very very wrong. This must be a dab page. — Randall Bart 14:38, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Change from base-name dab to primary topic
I reverted the cut-n-paste move of the dab page to Gothic (disambiguation). I moved the new article on the term to Gothic (term) and split the histories appropriately. Another editor objected to the new arrangement on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation, so any moves should be done using the WP:RM processes. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:17, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

I do welcome the excellent new material now at Gothic (term), which will make a useful link, especially when editors write "Gothic", in quotes. William Avery (talk) 12:56, 4 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I do not see any need for further moves with the current terminology. This solution should work well. Thanks--''' SabreBD  (talk ) 17:44, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Merge proposal

 * Oppose -- there is little enough overlap between the entries at Goth and the entries here, and it seems that the reader is better served by the separate disambiguation pages, rather than readers looking for a "Goth" combing through the longer "Gothic" list. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:29, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
