Requested move 20 June 2021 edit

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Wrong venue: nothing that can be technically done. Sending to AfD or redirecting to a more appropriate article is a separate editorial decision. No such user (talk) 06:40, 7 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Bone disease → Category:Bone disorders – This page is merely a list of bone diseases, which I think fits better as a category on its own, possibly as subcategory under Musculoskeletal disorders. Thoughts? 𐩘 Datapass ^{talk ⌇ contribs} 13:21, 20 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Support agree with the nom. This is just an alphabetical list for which a category is better suited. Bone#Clinical significance and I'm sure many other pages provide relevant links.Tom (LT) (talk) 20:30, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Comment I'm not sure this is technically the right venue for this discussion. What's being proposed isn't so much a literal move as a deletion and the creation/population of a new category. Except we already have the category Category:Osteopathies which I take to be more or less synonymous with "bone diseases" (though some diseases listed in this article are instead categorized in the parent cat, Category:Musculoskeletal disorders, or a sibling cat) - so effectively this is just a deletion discussion.

If this were AfD, I would probably agree with deletion, not because the topic isn't notable, but because the current content has virtually no value (i.e. WP:TNT). Bone § Clinical significance is the sort of content that would be appropriate for an article at this name. Until someone wants to create a more detailed standalone article, I would suggest making bone disease a redirect to that section. Colin M (talk) 16:17, 28 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
