Slughorn

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

Entirely WP:OR. There is no third party coverage of this concept as a whole, and any coverage of the term is focused on trivial mentions, insufficient for notability. An editor has synthesized this original research from several different dictionary-style definitions, most of them unverifiable except for one, which is already covered at another article. Mostly a holdover from 2006, when Wikipedia's standards were much more lax. Jontesta (talk) 14:31, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Soft redirect to slughorn, which is a better place for describing this term in a dictionary-like fashion. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 15:25, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Hogwarts staff. I performed a few searches and it appears that the Harry Potter character is the primary topic – and also the only term on the disambiguation page that's linked to something more substantial about "Slughorn" – but since he doesn't have his own article, redirect to the section about him instead. I'd also support a soft redirect as above if this isn't a clear primary topic. Complex / Rational  01:56, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Soft redirect to slughorn per Mellohi. Pretty crazy that this absolute disaster of an article? disambiguation page? what even is it? managed to last as long as it did.  Satellizer el Bridget (Talk)  14:43, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect somewhere. Hard choice given both suggestion above are viable. Can we create a disambig to a fictional character AND wiktionary? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:24, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Hogwarts staff This potential target takes priority, per WP:NOTDICTIONARY. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:24, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Hogwarts staff because the character appears to be the clear primary topic. Most of the other definitions do not have as much search prevalence.  &ddagger; Night Watch &omega;     (talk)   20:48, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
