Talk:Succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C

SDHC
I moved this article to SDHC so that it is named in a manner consistent with the related articles SDHA, SDHB, and SDHD. That's one thing. The other thing is that this is the only article in Wikipedia that has a claim to being at SDHC; "SDHC" may also refer to a type of Secure Digital card, but there isn't an article specifically about that type of card. —Paul A (talk) 02:20, 1 September 2008 (UTC)


 * SDHC more commonly refers to secure digital high capacity card so that is what SDHC should point to. Please rename it back. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 08:02, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

It can't point to "secure digital high capacity card"; there is no secure digital high capacity card article. —Paul A (talk) 00:57, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I pointed to the disambiguation page, which points to where it is defined. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 01:27, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

It pointed to the disambiguation page already! How is this an improvement? —Paul A (talk) 02:33, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Also, you haven't addressed my other point: This article is part of a series. The other articles are called SDHA, SDHB, and SDHD. Calling this one Succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C creates a conspicuous inconsistency. —Paul A (talk) 02:34, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Furthermore, despite your assertion that SDHC more commonly refers to the SD card, Special:WhatLinksHere/SDHC shows no articles linking to SDHC and meaning the SD card. —Paul A (talk) 02:39, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Are you saying you don't believe that SDHC more commonly refers to the card? Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 03:16, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

I don't deny that, in general, if a person says "SDHC", they're probably talking about the card. I don't think that's automatically relevant to the question at hand, though. It's entirely possible for an article to say "SDHC" without linking to SDHC. The question really is: when articles link to SDHC, which article are they trying to link to? And the answer seems to be: this one, mostly. —Paul A (talk) 05:48, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia has a policy on which articles should link to which name. It says that the article that the reader is mostly likely trying to find should link to the name. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 15:26, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Even if the article the reader is mostly likely trying to find doesn't exist? —Paul A (talk) 00:59, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Not sure I follow you. They are pointed to a sub article, is that a big deal? If you go to SDHC now, you see were they are directed.  Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 03:45, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I thought you were saying that Wikipedia policy says that SDHC should link to the article about SDHC cards, because that's what people would expect; hence my response, because there actually isn't an article about SDHC cards to link to. If I understand you, what you're actually saying is that when "SDHC", meaning the card, gets mentioned in an article, it gets linked to the SDHC section of Secure Digital card, because that's the closest thing Wikipedia has to an article about the SDHC card. Is that right? If so, if "SDHC" gets linked to Secure Digital card and not to SDHC, why can't this article be at SDHC? —Paul A (talk) 07:56, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, that is correct.
 * >why can't this article be at SDHC?
 * To serve our readers the best, when a term is entered it should point to what they are mostly likely want. If it is no common term then it should point to a disambiguation page.  This is what wikipedia policy states at: wp:dab.  Currently it points to a disambiguation page.  Alternatively it maybe best that SDHC point to the sub article of SD card.
 * In summary most people are looking the high capacity article, so it shouldn't point to Succinate... Thanks, Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 16:42, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

currently there is no disambiguation page AND all links to SDHC I found falsely linked to the secure digital card article. whatever justification might exist, this is NOT how it should be.82.176.211.89 (talk) 18:23, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
