All 3 entries on this disambiguation page are partial title matches. Delete this page to avoid impeding Search. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:51, 20 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete. Ridiculous compilation of unrelated partial title matches, which has gone through many iterations. Two of the current three items are redirects. Softlavender (talk) 11:14, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Disambiguations-related deletion discussions.  CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 16:39, 20 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep A satisfactory disambiguation page. Partial title matches are sensible in this case because the term "softener" may be used by itself and so is a reasonable search term. Andrew D. (talk) 18:00, 20 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep All valid and useful dab page entries. Pam  D  08:22, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Let me link again to the guideline on partial title matches. This is expressly something to avoid. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 21:01, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Both fabric softeners and water softeners are occasionally referred to as just "softeners", so they aren't partial title matches but different meanings of an ambiguous term. – Uanfala (talk) 22:24, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per Uanfala. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 16:53, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep this works as a disambig page. Lightburst (talk) 01:14, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep I was going to say delete seeing WP:PTM. But Unfala and Andrew's words seem reasonable.
 * Comment - This page was created by the Neelix, who created over 50000 questionable redirects. Masum Reza 📞 12:12, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
 * plus the editor created 100s of articles, and has quite a colorful userpage...and? what has this got to do with this afd? Coolabahapple (talk) 23:21, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
 * It was supposed to be funny. That's all. I have seen plenty of bizarre redirects created by him. Masum Reza 📞 13:52, 26 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep, looks like a sensible disam page, re WP:PTM, does this mean that Leather softener shouldn't be included? Coolabahapple (talk) 23:25, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Added more links, cleaned it up, and added descriptions. A valid DAB page. AmericanAir88(talk) 13:44, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
