Deletion proposal

edit

   I suppose i owe everyone an apology for the edit comment, three years ago, "More content coming", since i was surprised to realize, just now, who the creator was.
   The page should, however not be deleted, since the title has been spread over the web, undoubtedly to too many places to count, let alone expect anyone to fix or erase. If the title offends you enough make a case for leaving all those who find clones of it, and might either note a hint that it was copied from our stubby article or say "Hmm, i'd like to see what WP says about the phrase, then make a case that it's better for WP to definitively disown the concept that the phrase is worthy of mention, by requesting deletion, not of the lousy article, but of the redirect to the Dab À gogo that i'm converting it to. I can't recall ever noticing a Rdr deletion in a dozen and some years proposal, and my guess is that our policy is that being slightly confusing (e.g., arguably something of a non sequitur, in this case) is insufficient for an Rdr deletion, and that a finding of significant harm would be required. Dabs exist to disambiguate, but in order to do that job well, they are often enlightening to read even if you don't follow any of the Dab's links to articles. In this case, any fool will gain sufficient insight from the titles (and maybe even the headings) on the Dab page to know they haven't just been screwed by Granny.
