Stub was previously blanked and redirected but term is not mentioned at target, so currently it does not make a good redirect. The cyanobacteria extract contains other compounds besides phenethylamine (like phycocyanin), so redirect may be confusing. Page should be deleted unless there is consensus for a partial merge or for keeping as an article (though it does not appear notable). Mdewman6 (talk) 02:44, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. I had done the BLAR as "redirect non-notable brand-name product to its active ingredient. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blue Green Algae". But if the brand/product is so unworthy to mention in the article about its active ingredient, then I agree it's a poor redirect. And if the brand/product contains other active or important ingredients, such that a simple redirect to this active ingredient is conceptually poor, then delete outright as a non-notable topic itself (the specific combination of components or its source).

• Delete I can find no evidence of notability independent of the underlying chemistry. Mike Turnbull (talk) 16:21, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
