I no longer believe that the disambiguation is necessary as only The Green Album (Skankin' Pickle album) mention Steve Devlin by name presently. BangJan1999 07:03, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Steve Devlin of Skankin' Pickle is also named at Skafunkrastapunk and Skankin' Pickle Live. Steve Devlin is also the name of character in Stingers, played by John Brumpton, and a current defensive coordinator for the Ursinus Bears, named at List of current NCAA Division III football coaches. That said, none of these pages give detailed information about Steve Devlin, so I don't think they're overly helpful as DAB items.

• For reference, I think the crux of this AfD is how we interpret MOS:DABMENTION:If the topic does not have an article of its own, but is discussed within another article, then a link to that article may be included if it would provide value to the reader (emphasis mine). Thus, the question is whether the information provided at the articles mentioned is enough to provide value to the reader. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 09:09, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Even if Wikipedia has very little to say about a subject, having a disambiguation page pointing to the relevant titles regarding that subject informs the reader that this is, in fact, everything that Wikipedia has to say about that subject. BD2412 T 22:20, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
