Possibly merge?

Vegetable disambiguation page also refers to “veggies” and “veggie”, so is there a valid reason why the Veggie disambiguation page should remain separate? Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 00:25, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

:Veggies → {{no redirect|Veggies (disambiguation)}} – To match Veggie Stumbling9655 (talk) 18:28, 28 April 2025 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). 162 etc. (talk) 20:39, 28 April 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. TarnishedPathtalk 22:38, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

  • : Contesting this on the count of the "Veggie" title being a "nickname" or short name to its target. The current target looks fine to me! Intrisit (talk) 20:08, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

:: Veggie (disambiguation) would be the preferred title per WP:DABNAME. 162 etc. (talk) 20:33, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

  • Move to Veggie (disambiguation) (per 162) and retarget veggies to vegetable as a primary redirect to match the singular veggie (per nom). Mdewman6 (talk) 04:21, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
  • :I also support the retargeting of Veggies to the primary topic. 162 etc. (talk) 16:41, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
  • Oppose. The primary meaning of both Veggie and Veggies in my experience is actually Vegetarian(s). That may not be everyone's experience (and I don't know whether this is an ENGVAR issue), but it is significant enough that in my opinion Veggies should be renamed to Veggie and remain as a dabpage. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:22, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
  • :Perhaps start an RFD at Veggie (which has been a primary redirect since 2013), but in the meantime, both should match, no? 162 etc. (talk) 16:18, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

  • Oppose There does not seem to be a primary topic. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 00:24, 15 May 2025 (UTC)
  • Move per 162. PT seems to me to be vegetable. Natg 19 (talk) 23:54, 16 May 2025 (UTC)
  • Support per nom and per Mdewman6 and Natg 19. I would be keen to see evidence that reference to vegetarians as "veggies" was nearly as widespread. BD2412 T 01:35, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

:Move to Veggie the base page name for consistency, showing both terms have no primary topic. Given the family copy of the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English and wikt:veggie (meaning 2 under nouns cites a [https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/edit/10.4324/9780429490743/ethical-vegetarianism-veganism-andrew-linzey-clair-linzey 2018 academic work] published by British publisher Routledge), British English use as "vegetarian(s)" has long-term significance.

::Probably not much use so late in the discussion: notified Talk:Vegetarianism and Talk:Vegetable, the talk pages of the most prominent topics. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 19:12, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

  • Support No justification for plural and singular to be different here. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:46, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
