The Holy Father
Apparently created as part of an ongoing dispute over Holy Father (talk &middot; [ history] &middot; [ watch]) which is should be a redirect to Pope ever since this AfD discussion closed. Ought to redirect to God the Father but violates WP:NAME, and will probably just contain a POV argument about the impropriety of the Papal title. If it ever contains useful information on the history of the title, I would support a Merge to Pope, otherwise Delete TCC (talk) (contribs) 07:21, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Holy Father

I would like to nominate the article Holy Father for undeletion review or at least I would like a stub to be made for the article for Holy Father. The rcc's pope is only "Holy Father" to at least some rcc members, but not to everyone. Redirecting automatically to a their pope is not NPOV and more would agree if more knew about what was going on here. The article was doing fine for some months before TCC/Csernica blindside afd'd and had support from "other" people that didn't have much to do with the article. TCC/Csernica could have discussed about the page instead of afd'ing.

I would like the article to be protected from being redirected exclusively to their pope. I would think some people would like to know the history of the original use and the rcc title. --jeolmeun 07:36, 17 January 2006 (UTC)


 * You want WP:DRV. This is about your other article. This kind of confusion is one reason we don't put "The" in article title. I'm also de-linking your section title; it made for a very confusing entry on Articles for deletion/Log/2006 January 17 TCC (talk) (contribs) 07:38, 17 January 2006 (UTC)


 * What article title would you suggest, if not this? I would rather have Holy Father back and someone can add a link to rcc's pope instead of redirecting. I would like your feedback also at the deletion review. --jeolmeun 08:03, 17 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete this as a non-obvious search term (useless redirect), and a non-article. Comment left at deletion review. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] [[Image:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|25px| ]] AfD? 11:25, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per JzG. --Terence Ong 15:09, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Make it into a disambiguation page discussing the history and use of the title. Crotalus horridus (TALK • CONTRIBS) 21:23, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, there is no reason that the article Holy Father cannot cover all of this, since we already have an article about the Pope. Peyna 04:08, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Holy Father as long as Holy Father stays as a disambiguation page or reverted to the full article. --jeolmeun 11:37, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
