Harizotoh9 recently moved
J. D. Tippit to
Murder of J. D. Tippit per
this edit. While I generally agree that redirects like this are warranted for lesser known individuals, I think the question here is whether or not Tippit should have a stand alone article per
WP:BIO1E and
WP:CRIME due to weight of historical significance and the fact that a
large number of Wikipedia articles reference Tippit by name. I think the redirect should be reversed, but I'm bringing it here for consensus. (Edit: I inadvertently courtesy tagged two editors involved with the article, but not involved with the redirect.)

Agree there should be a standalone article. Agree the redirect should be reversed. Some info in the article may not directly refer to the murder.

Not sure about this.
Google images is quite clear that "locs" refers to
dreadlocks, but the word's used only once in that article (in an external link). On the other hand, I don't think
"LoCs" as a measurement of data transfer rate is mentioned in the
Library of Congress article either. "Locs" is also a
brand of sunglasses; with diacritics,
a village in Hungary; and the pluralised form of any number of
Locs. (Just FYI, I don't think deletion's a good idea, but this is redirects for discussion, and I'm personally split between retargeting, dabifying and keeping.) –

Retarget to the dab at
Loc, andding any specific targets (e.g.
Lócs, the Hungarian village) to the target. I wouldn't object to converting this to its own dab, linking the two with see alsos, but a single page will be easier to maintain and I don't think it would be too long.

Retarget or disambiguate per Thryduulf.

Delete: Ningyuan, Anshan refers to a town (宁远镇) in Qianshan District,
Anshan, which Xingcheng is nowhere near to begin with. GotRTalk 05:18, 24 May 2012 (UTC)reply
Agree. There was misunderstanding between 宁远镇 and 宁远市 (old name of Xingcheng). --
