Tine (band)
edit@Quindorrian: Please stop re-adding an entry for Tine (band) as you did here. The red link guidelines you cited in your edit summary apply to articles. Disambiguation pages are not articles and have their own style guidelines. Please see the "Disambiguation pages" section on the same page you referenced:
Use of red links on disambiguation pages should be limited. The whole point of a disambiguation page is to direct the reader to an existing article for the page's topic, so a red link does not help. They can, however, be added when the red link is included in an article. For full details, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Disambiguation pages#Red links.
(emphasis mine)
As of this writing, there is no article for Tine (band), and no articles link to it, so it should not have a redlinked entry on this disambiguation page. Nick Number (talk) 15:09, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
@Nick Number: Yet, you left the red link alone for Tiné, a town in Chad near the Mourdi Depression. I find your application of the "rules" inconsistent. Would an entry with no link (blue or red) satisfy you? The point is that a band called "Tine" does exist and does meet the notability guidelines, although those guidelines are subject to interpretation. 11:59, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
- Per the emphasized portion of my quotation above, red links are permitted on disambiguation pages when they are already included in articles, and a link to Tiné is included in the article Mourdi Depression. Tine (band) is not linked from any existing articles. If the band does indeed meet notability guidelines, then the best course would be to write the article first.
