This was never really needed. All of the linked topics are now discussed in the article sixth chord. This page is the result of a bit of a snafu - over two years ago, major 6th chord redirected to sixth chord, but someone reversed that situation and rather than copying the content of the latter directly to the former, they rewrote it to awkwardly place too much emphasis specifically on the major sixth chord. I saw that at the top of major 6th chord was a massive, clunky hatnote with all of the topics listed on this page given in it. I create disambig pages when I see things like that, which was my only intention here, and in the process I made sixth chord a redirect to this page; I was then reverted by BD2412 because as it turns out this buried a perfectly good article at sixth chord that was emptied and clumsily transplanted for no good reason and entirely without a discussion, let alone consensus. I have since restored the status quo as of two years ago, and I have discovered that all of the topics listed & linked here are discussed in detail at the current sixth chord article (with links to full articles where appropriate). (Addendum 08:57, 2 January 2017 (UTC): It helps that I was distracted by the hat note; usually I'd see "major 6th chord" next to "sixth chord" and assume the latter should be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC whose article would include the former, but I was stuck seeing it as the other way around since "major 6th chord" was where the hat note was and I immediately went into "this is the PRIMARYTOPIC by virtue of having such a hat note" mode.)

  • No objection to deletion. Horrorist sums up the situation just right. bd2412 T 23:00, 1 January 2017 (UTC) reply
