Neither of the articles this page is supposed to disambiguate exists. allen四names 03:41, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Delete - I can't actually find a policy that supports this deletion reason but common sense says there's no reason to have a disambiguation page if it doesn't provide any meaningful disambiguation service. - DustFormsWords (talk) 05:47, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

:*Comment. How is the disambiguation service offered by this page not meaningful? I would have thought that common sense leads to the opposite conclusion, as this page leads to articles with information about two people with this name. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:59, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Keep both entries are valid, per MOS:DABRL. Boleyn (talk) 06:28, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Keep I just used this dab page to disambiguate; having redlinks isn't a problem as long as other pages link to the redlinks. Josh Parris 09:28, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

:Keep -- disambiguation entries need to have blue links, but those blue links are allowed to be in the description. -- JHunterJ (talk) 14:30, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Keep-oversight on my part, one of those days when I meant to start an article then got on something else and forgot. Stubs have been created for both now.--Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 05:23, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
Keep - The two articles may not survive a notability challenge but they now exist. I withdraw my nomination. Thank you. – allen四names 14:25, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
