- Redirect to List of political metaphors, where it is listed, and change that link to point to Wiktionary, which others in the list do. It seems possible that a whole article could be built, but if that were the case, the article title would be something broader than "riding coattails". And there's nothing here beyond a WP:DICDEF. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 16:32, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

- Merge and redirect to Coattail effect and link to wikt:ride the coattails as suggested by Dkendr above.--Ddcm8991 (talk) 02:36, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
- Merge into Coattail effect. That article is the primary one for this subject, this one is only a dictionary definition which we don't do. As mentioned before, Coattail effect can receive a link to the Wiktionary page on the subject.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 12:02, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
