 * The result of the discussion was 486 (number) (disambiguation) re-targeted to 486 (disambiguation). 486 (number) kept (with more specific target). -- JLaTondre (talk) 21:15, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

 * → 400 (number) (links to redirect • [ history] • )

Redirecting 486 to 400 makes no sense, especially (number) (disambiguation). This nomination also applies to 486 (number), a redirect whose existence places a link to it on 486 (the year), since the template sees that the page exists. Best to delete both, 486 (number) (disambiguation) makes no sense as there is only one number 486, and 486 (number) is better as a red link to encourage the page to be created.

 * keep 486 (number) - this is standard practice, where there is insufficient material for an article on a number to redirect to the decade or hundred. I have retrgeted it to the section on the 480s.
 * keep 486 (number) (disambiguation) - pretty useless now 486 (number) is no longer a dab page, I have redirected it to 486 (disambiguation) - there's no value to deleting it, anyone hitting it will go to the right place (about 4 per month), redirects are cheap, etc etc. Rich Farmbrough, 22:08, 16 September 2011 (UTC).


 * Keep pointing it all to 486 (disambiguation). I don't see any real value in deleting it. Redirects are cheap and this one isn't hurting anyone and is likely to help the few people who hit it. — m a k o ๛  22:27, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - looking here pretty much all 400's numbers are without articles, presumably because of a lack of material. Bridgeplayer (talk) 22:40, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep both as retargetted by Rich Farmbrough. The first is harmless; the second is useful. Bridgeplayer (talk) 22:43, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
