Goatmen
Hallo, I've seen your moves around Goatman and I'm sorry but I've undone a lot of your work. There are a couple of things which you seem to have misunderstood about editing Wikipedia:

There is a lot to learn about editing Wikipedia but it's an interesting journey. Please go back to the Goatman (Maryland) article and improve it, add new sources, etc - but without wiping out the history of work by many previous editors. Thanks. Pam D  08:35, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) A disambiguation page can be at the "base title", and in fact it should be there unless there is an agreed "Primary Topic", which is defined at WP:PTOPIC as "if it is highly likely—much more likely than any other single topic, and more likely than all the other topics combined—to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term.". I don't see evidence that the Maryland creature meets that definition. There's a second criterion for Primary Topic: "if it has substantially greater enduring notability and educational value than any other topic associated with that term", which would possibly qualify Faun. So the disambiguation page was at the right title, and the Maryland creature was at the right title.
 * 2) To move an existing article from one title to another, you must not just cut and paste the content. That loses the editing history, the record of the contributions made by previous editors - in this case over 10 years of edits. There is a WP:Requested Moves process. That's the process I'm now using to get the status quo reinstated. In some cases it is permissible to copy text from one article to another, but only with great care to leave a trail of attribution so that there is a permanent record of who wrote what - see Copying within Wikipedia.

Regarding this edit
edit. Anyone can redirect an article, that isn't actually deleting it. You are also allowed to revert that redirection. It is called Bold, Revert, Discuss. But it will most definitely be going to AfD, and if Hinnks doesn't, then I will, unless you can find some substantial, independent coverage in reliable sources.
