Heinrich Mueller Redirect
There are several factors at play here.
- This is not a nick name that anyone would want tagged to them unless they deliberately picked it for themselves. A nickname so similar to a major Nazi figure? Definite WP:BLP concerns here. This is not something that can stand unless very well sourced, IMHO.
- I thought there was no mention of the nickname on the target page. I now see it mentioned in the list, and you have added an offhand mention of it as well. So that issue is dealt with.
- Considering the WP:BLP concerns with the nickname, it really needs to be very well sourced. A source is needed showing that this is indeed a regular/accepted nickname of his.
Given all that, if you could provide sourcing for the nickname, I would not object to having the disambig restored. IMHO the discogs link is not sufficient in this reguard, given that it is user-added information as well, and thus is effectively unsourced information. This gets into the definition of "reliable" sources.
On a side note, looking at the Gerald Donald page itself, I don't really see anything that establishes his notability. Without that, the page is subject to Speedy deletion at any point. If you want to avoid the possibility of the page being deleted at some point down the road, you would be well advised to consult WP:BAND, and add some indepenant sources that help establish why he is notable. - TexasAndroid 17:50, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
- I see no sign of a previous Speedy attempt on the Gerald Donald page. - TexasAndroid 18:03, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Sorry the delete was on Dopplereffekt, the arguement to keep the article included the fact that it included Gerald Donald, who was one of the members of Drexciya. I can elaborate if you would like me to. On the Heinrich Mueller front, these links are to albums that include his remixes [1],[2],[3],[4],[5],[6],[7] - - Curious GregorTALK 18:21, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
- In the end, my comment about notability was mostly intended as a friendly warning. I have no intention of speedying the page myself, but as it currently stands, I could easily see it getting deleted. You might even be able to get it back after the deletion, but why go through that hastle then, when you could get the page in order now and avoid the problem? The fact that he has done a lot of remixes may make him notable, but you really should consult WP:BAND yourself to figure out for certain. But even if he is notable, you really need reliable, independant sourcing of whatever factoid you select from WP:BAND to hang his notability on. Discogs and blogs are just not reliable enough for this purpose. In the end, whether you do anything or not is up to you. As I said, I'm not taking any action against the page myself. But any time someone else comes across the page, in it's current state, it's possible that they could toss it up for speedy deletion and, IMHO, in it's current state they would likely get it deleted. So it's not me you need to convince of his notability, it's the unknown future reader of the page. - TexasAndroid 18:30, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
