:The result of the discussion was retarget to the dab page, Miggy.
See a rough consensus below for this long-sought-after solution. Closure requested at WP:CR {{diff|Wikipedia:Closure requests#Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2021_October_4#MIGY|next|1049051497|(permalink)}}. (non-admin closure) P.I. Ellsworth - ed. put'r there 11:06, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
Cabrera is nicknamed "Miggy", as are others. There is no acronym MIGY, nor are the nicknames capitalized. There is a Paul Migy, but redirecting to him makes no real sense either. Clarityfiend (talk) 13:13, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep for attribution, not necessarily in this location. A very short article describing Cabrera's nickname (in that case spelled "Migy" without "Miggy" being mentioned) was merged into Miguel Cabrera many years ago. As for usage there's [https://us.macmillan.com/author/migy/ this], but we don't seem to have an article on this author. {{no redirect|1=Migy, Paul}} is a redirect to Paul Migy already.

- Comment This does actually appear to be the result of a merge back in '05, so I agree it should be kept somewhere. Tag with {{tl|R from merge}}. No strong opinion on whether its current target is kept or retargeted to Paul Migy. Mdewman6 (talk) 18:09, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
- Move to Migy without leaving a redirect, tag as a {{tl|r from misspelling}} and {{tl|r from merge}}, and then retarget to the disambiguation page at Miggy, where the above targets are mentioned, among others. I think that should solve our problems. - Eureka Lott 04:28, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
::Retargeting to the dab would be fine, but I don't think moving the redirect to the lowercase form is necessary or advisable. We are mostly trying to preserve attribution for the merge, and the uppercase form will serve just as well as a search term as the lowercase. Mdewman6 (talk) 20:33, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

- Retarget to Miggy. Pretty clear that the page should be kept for attribution purposes. In light of no one having a strong opinion about where to move, I think that retargeting to the disambiguation page that mentions all the possibilities mentioned so far like Miguel Cabrera and Paul Migy would be the most inclusive option and would be the clearest aid to navigation. bibliomaniac15 18:03, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
