Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of largest nebula

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. While there is some consensus to leave this article as a redirect, there doesn't seem to be a clear consensus that the singular version is a common enough misspelling to justify a redirect. However, the consensus is pretty evenly split here. So, no prejudice against recreating this as a redirect. If there is disagreement, feel free to take it to RfD to have a proper discussion about whether or not this is a valid redirect. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 05:49, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A supposed list of nebulas which contains galaxies and protogalaxies, no longer referred to as nebulas. The list seems to have no indication of what it's based on whether it is length, volume or otherwise. It includes listings that have no articles and no references. There may be a valid topic here but with this current page I believe WP:TNT applies as this list is currently not reliably sourced or accurate.

Speedy delete Article already exists at List of largest nebulae. Reywas92^Talk 18:27, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of largest nebulae I didn't think of an alternate spelling of nebula when I nominated and would support a redirect to that article instead as it is much better laid out and sourced.McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 18:31, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree with McMatter, i think we should redirect it to the List of largest nebulae. D Eaketts (talk) 18:37, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That article is now up for deletion itself, interestingly Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 18:42, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:DELREASON#5:Content forks (unless a merger or redirect is appropriate). I don't think it qualifies for WP:Speedy deletion per WP:A10 (Recently created article that duplicates an existing topic) since the title is a plausible redirect (but would also not be opposed to a speedy delete per WP:IAR). Whether or not a redirect to List of largest nebulae should be created depends on the outcome of WP:Articles for deletion/List of largest nebulae; I say delete for now and create a redirect afterwards if necessary, but turning this into a redirect that may or may not need to be deleted is also perfectly acceptable.

Redirect to List of largest nebulae. Dream Focus 03:59, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy redirect to List of largest nebulae as this discussion is confusing the deletion discussion of that article. An admin should just do the redirect and close this discussion. --Bduke (talk) 04:03, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to List of largest nebulae. Unnecessary duplicate. Ajf773 (talk) 08:35, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Just a content fork as described above. Shankargb (talk) 15:04, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Excelse (talk) 20:31, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Any list that mixes nebulae with galaxies and protogalaxies must be bonkers. Lack of pluralization is problematic as a redirect. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 03:26, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
