Anti-fairy

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Dab with no targets to point to. I can't see an article ever being written on either form of anti-fairy, so this dab is useless. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 17:10, 30 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep - there are two meanings; someone searching might be after one or the other. If there was only one meaning then a redirect would be appropriate to the parent topic - that is not the case so keep.  Seems a good DAB. Springnuts (talk) 21:54, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * There isn't even a single article for this term so i fail to see your reasoning here. --neon white talk 01:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. We do not have an article on either topic, so no need for a DAB page. JulesH (talk) 16:55, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Unneeded dab page. --neon white talk 01:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * There's a thing known as an anti-fairy tale (Antim&auml;rchen), but it isn't abbreviated "anti-fairy". &#9786; Uncle G (talk) 03:32, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It's a perfectly proper disambiguation between two things that are covered as sub-topics within larger articles, both of which are known as Anti-Fairies. We use redirects for such situations (see Redirect), and where two such redirects clash at a single title we construct a disambiguation. Keep. Uncle G (talk) 03:44, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. What is the harm in keeping this here?  Nothing, as far as I can see.  Both terms are equally insignificant, and this dab page will steer a person looking for this obscure term in the direction he or she wants.   Un  sch  ool  06:40, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. I'm not changing my vote;  I just wanted to say that I looked at the version of the article to which 10 lb. added the AfD tag, and now I can understand his thinking.  But what Uncle G. has done I think makes a keep more obvious.   Un  sch  ool  06:44, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Ahem! Uncle G (talk) 09:36, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Changing to keep in light of changes to the page since my last comment. JulesH (talk) 10:13, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as reworked since it serves to disambiguate two article sections (and move to Anti-Fairies if it survives the AfD). -- JHunterJ (talk) 13:07, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as a useless dab. Tavix (talk) 23:05, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It would be used when a reader enters "anti-fairy" (or one of several variations) in the search box. Why do you think it's useless? -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:08, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Useful page for searching purposes. --Edcolins (talk) 13:07, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Two is the minimal number for a disambiguation page. Having more than one way to navigate to articles is better than just one way. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 01:00, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Here you're correct -- two is the minimum number when there is no primary topic. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:46, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
