[edit] Cut It Out (disambiguation)
Needless disambiguation page. Only notable article on the disambig page is the single by Nelly. Admc2006 20:01, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Close and take to WP:RFD. We have separate deletion discussions for redirects. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 20:06, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

- ...But this isn't a redirect. It's a dab page. The question is whether or not it's a valid disambiguation page, as it should never be a redirect. Oh, and while I'm here, delete. A non-notable album by a non-notable band. (Note that there is a notable band named "Doubting Thomas", but not the one responsible for an album called Cut It Out.) -- Kicking222 22:04, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete G6. All this really is is a dab page for an article that does exist and an article that doesn't. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:19, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Convert to redirect→Cut It Out (song). That's what I would have done if I'd come across it before it was inserted into the deletion process. The main reason for this outcome rather than deletion would be to preserve the history, which runs back to November 2006 and involves seven (likely) different editors. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:32, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Convert to redirect per Ceyockey. Carlossuarez46 20:21, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- OK, converted to redirect, but as a redirect, it would easily qualify for a {{db-redirtypo}}. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 02:32, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Please look at WP:RFD#When should we delete a redirect? where it speaks to when deletion of redirects should be avoided; one case is where "They have a potentially useful page history." I think it's potentially useful even if you don't. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 03:53, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
- Interesting point - didn't check that, and just realized that there was a note in reference to Dave Coulier in there. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:05, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

- Delete and move Cut It Out (song) to Cut It Out Since the song is the only notable article, there is no need for the latter term to exist as a redirect to the disambig page. Admc2006 17:09, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
