Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Co-motherhood


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   delete & redirect. Opinion regarding a redirect was split. Since there was no merging involved, a redirect with an intact editing history is not required, therefore it's an editorial decision to be informed by WP:REDIRECT. Since the objections to the redirect centered around said edit history, and that this appears to be a plausible search term, a full deletion with a new redirect should adress these concerns. It would be advisable to incorporate the term "co-motherhood" into the LGBT parenting article in order to provide greater clarity & justification for the redirect. &mdash; Scientizzle 17:42, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete It would be better if this was covered in the LGBT parenting article, no reason to fork a specific term. Pax:Vobiscum (talk) 07:47, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect I think by this you actually meen we need redirecting? Deletion meens that there will be no mention of this term at all in Wikipedia. I added the term because it was lacking. If it is searchable after redirection I see that as a good alternative.OKjustchange (talk) 03:48, 14 May 2010 (UTC) — OKjustchange (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Redirect to LGBT parenting per Pax Vobiscum. (I don't think deletion is appropriate because this is a plausible search term, and because I don't think Co-motherhood should be a redlink that encourages inexperienced users to write an article there.)— S Marshall   Talk / Cont  09:56, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete without redirect. For essay-type papers like this, there is a discussion about adding CSD criteria. &mdash; Timneu22 · talk 13:12, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * AfD isn't a vote, so please explain your rationale for the "delete without redirect". I'm aware of the discussion about adding a new CSD criterion, but I haven't felt the need to comment on it because I don't think it'll go anywhere.— S Marshall   Talk / Cont  13:24, 13 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect to LGBT parenting; perfectly valid and useful search-term.-- Beloved Freak  13:50, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete and no redirect. Unsourced POV soapbox essay from the very first sentence, with statements like "the spouse of the new mother will legally and morally be considered the father of the child, although he may not be the biological father."  Leave the legal and moral judgments to someone else please.  While it appears that "co-mother" is a term used in situations where two women have a sexual relationship and both participate in the raising of children in the household, and would be a logical search term, this rant doesn't need to be preserved in a history.

 * If you think this term should be described in a simpler or clearer way, I suggest you edit it. I think this is concise and refers only to facts.OKjustchange (talk) 03:57, 14 May 2010 (UTC) — OKjustchange (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Delete as content fork. Uncle Dick (talk) 05:32, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The reason for this article is that this term is not found or mentioned in any other article as far as I can see. "Content fork" does not apply. OKjustchange (talk)06:06, 14 May 2010 (UTC) — OKjustchange (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
