closed twice before with no consensus (first time, second time), with the recommendation of waiting at least 2 months to nom again. thus, to celebrate the 69rd day of the year (nice), it's time to nom again. with that preamble aside... that's a word with seemingly no fitting enough target and not much to work with for a dab, though an argument could be made for this resident incel being the primary topic. what do? consarn (prison phone) (crime record) 12:08, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
:notes:
:* tighten (character) is a redirect that exists, but it likely doesn't matter since it has that juicy disambiguator
:* yes, it's tighten. megamind tried to name him titan, but he's canonically a dumb stupid bad at writing doofus who thinks the triangle doesn't go in the square hole, so the discussion about whether or not that is his funny name is at best an irrelevant misconception

::again, it's not a misspelling of a character's name, it's a mishearing, which is itself canon because hal is the kind of person who thinks the possessive form of "it" has an apostrophe
::also what happened with your reply's formatting, holy fr*ck consarn (prison phone) (crime record) 10:50, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

- Disagree that there is no fitting enough target. If that was the case we wouldn't have Tighten (character) redirecting to the same target. If someone was looking for the dictionary meaning of the word, Wikipedia is not the place. The hatnote at the current target (added after the previous RfD) is also quite silly, but should alleviate any "confusion". Jay 💬 20:22, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Was extensively discussed at the previous RFDs and nothing has changed. It's one of the official names of the main villainous character, there's nothing called "Tighten" at the DAB, we should not soft retarget to Wiktionary when we have encyclopedic coverage here, and now there's a hatnote for those who might be confused. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:03, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: Tight is a DAB page and doesn't seem like the best target. Tightening doesn't exist. There is a character named Tighten that we have some content about, so might as well. Schützenpanzer (Talk) 01:22, 31 March 2025 (UTC)
- Weak delete since I'm a bit tired of this being renominated, but I really don't want this to be closed to "keep" per my comment in one of the previous discussions. Let's leave this as "no consensus" and move on... Steel1943 (talk) 03:14, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per Patar Knight and Consarn. Thryduulf (talk) 10:54, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
