Hi @Sahaib-
I noticed that you updated the redirect of Eleonora from Eleanor to Eleanora. I would agree that the second is more closely related than the first, but there's also the distinction that Eleanora is a disambiguation page, while Eleanor is an article about the name and its variants (and mentions both other spellings). I'm relatively inexperienced with these name articles/dab pages, but my first instinct was that this should go back to the Eleanor article, versus the dab. It looks like you do a lot of work with redirects, though, so I figured I would ask here first before taking any action. Thanks! Cleancutkid (talk) 03:50, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
@Cleancutkid: I think both work as on the disambiguation page there is Eleonora (short story), that said most are probably looking for the name and so redirecting it to Eleanor or Eleanora (name) is probably better. Sahaib (talk) 07:10, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Sahaib: Thanks for the reply! I hadn't realized that there was also a (name) page. That makes me think that perhaps it's best off as you set it up, going to the disambiguation page, so that stray incoming links can be redirected to the proper location as they occur.

Speedy deletion nomination of Point X (disambiguation)
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Point X (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either
- disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
- disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
- is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 20:28, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
