Change to redirect?

This supposed "form of Chinese poetry" looks like a prank. There are several Chinese words pronounced daoshi (dàoshí 到时 "by that time", dàoshi 倒是 "on the contrary", Dàoshi 道士 "Daoist priest", dǎoshī 导师 "teacher", etc.) but the only one with shi 诗/詩 "poetry" is dàoshī 盗诗 "plagiarize the poems of others".

I've removed the spurious references to poetry, and I think redirecting to some Taoist-related article, developing the article, or simply deleting it would all work. An encyclopedic article on Daoshi as Daoist priests would be valid, however as the article now stands it is a dictionary definition, and not even a valid stub.
