Blue ticket

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Many things have tickets. Some tickets are blue. That doesn’t make “blue tickets” an encyclopedic topic. Mccapra (talk) 12:50, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep This was a redirect without mention until I retargeted to blue discharge as a synonym thereof. This means that deletion is off the table. Subsequently I found the other uses. The election entry became a synonym for the 1949 election. These terms have specific meanings that cannot be derived from the dictionary meaning of their constituent terms. Cf. pink slip, red flag, and so on. Paradoctor (talk) 13:33, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I don’t think “blue ticket” is anything like our articles on “pink slip” or “Red flag”. It’s more like creating an article on “orange bus” and then listing every random instance of an orange bus in films and tv, or “yellow fish” or something. It’s not a topic.

 * Please support your claim with evidence. So far, all you've said amounts to WP:BELONG. Paradoctor (talk) 14:59, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
 * P.S.: Specifically, please address the reason I stated for excluding deletion from consideration. Paradoctor (talk) 15:02, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I’m afraid I don’t understand your point about why deletion is “off the table”. Mccapra (talk) 22:13, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
 * means that, at the very least, this will be a redirect. Paradoctor (talk) 23:11, 18 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Redirect to blue discharge. This article is meant to be a set index article, but in that sense it consists mostly of a list of trivia. It would make sense as a disambiguation page, except that I suspect it only has one notable thing to disambiguate, and there's no point in having a page to disambiguate one thing. If the election-related meaning is notable, you could write an article about it, and then I'd be happy for this to be expanded into a full disambiguation page rather than a redirect – but as far as I can tell, we don't currently have a page about the 1949 Hungarian elections to disambiguate. --ais523 22:23, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Set indices and dab pages overlap, yet are distinct. Neither requires all its entries to be notable. E. g., most songs listed on dab pages are not notable. Cf. Yesterday (song). Paradoctor (talk) 00:25, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

Delete - a collection of unrelated instances. Rathfelder (talk) 22:59, 21 June 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 19:25, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete, halfway point between a dab and a dicdef and pulling off neither one. No evidence that any of these are called "blue ticket" unquestionably, and is just a muddled mess. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:00, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and other "delete" recommendations above. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:13, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
