Seems more like a dictionary definition than a notable article. LR.127 (talk) 21:54, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

  • Convert to disambiguation page. There are three other articles about terms with this word as their title (or at least whose title could generally be shortened to this word informally) and one more specific use that can point to an article, so I think it's a useful navigation tool. But I agree that there does not appear to be enough to say about this term itself to merit an article. DMacks (talk) 22:04, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
  • :Noting for the record and anyone else who is just joining the discussion, User:Buidhe converted it to a DAB while this discussion was pending. I have invited them to comment here. DMacks (talk) 02:06, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  • ::Given they have so-far declined, I assume that would be considered to be a !vote "dabify" (their edit-summary, with no further explanation). DMacks (talk) 01:41, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
  • :::I reverted back to the AfD-ed article, as converting to a dab while an AfD is ongoing seems out of process. Natg 19 (talk) 02:21, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Keep the last good version (before it was converted into a disambiguation page - an unhelpful edit). There's nothing wrong with it: per WP:WORDISSUBJECT, it's not just dictionary definitions, and has useful links to appropriate articles. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 21:32, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
  • :While there's nothing wrong with having an article about a word in general, this article did not seem to have anything beyond dictionary-def content and the defined items and links to articles using that term. To me, that looks MOS:WTLINK plus DAB-list. like Is there more to say about this whole concept or word, as the unified concept or word? The next step up from a Disambiguation page is a Set Index Article. Using the SIA decision guideline (WP:SETNOTDAB), this article is all "Similar names", so it's not a regular article, but instead a SIA vs DAB depending on whether they are all "Similar subjects".

  • Disambiguation: I agree with DMacks; I think it is best to keep it as a disambiguation page. GrabUp - Talk 12:43, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
