I do request your openion if it is ok to change title of the article to Legitimacy (law). For example link in article
Head of state "[[Legitimacy (law)|legitimating]] element in establishing a [[de facto]] dynasty." should have come here but as of now actually & mistakenly goes to article
Legitimacy (family law).
Simultaneouly I will need to work on Legitimacy (law) article. Unfortunately Legitimacy (law) article name was mistakenly used for
Legitimacy (family law) and since huge number of internal page links still to be corrected I was not able to use article name Legitimacy (law) for this article. Mean while I used article name
Legal Legitimacy for this page but some one moved it to
Legitimacy (criminal law) probably because present stub content is more of related to criminal law. But factually I do not intend to limit this article to criminal law only but put it more general to Legitimacy (law) so ite will be easy for me to link other legal concept articles like
legal socialisation here.
I do request your openion if it is ok to change title of the article to Legitimacy (law).
List of some of the artilces affected and need link to this article:
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. No further edits should be made to this section.
2) to correct redierections in various articles from
Legitimacy (law) to
Legitimacy (family law).(
list). for example [[Legitimacy (law)|bastard son]] link in one of the articles needs to be changed to [[Legitimacy (family law)|bastard son]] or for example [[Legitimacy (law)#History|illegitimate]] needs to be changed to [[Legitimacy (family law)#History|illegitimate]]
Reasons and points to ponder
A) Previously written title article for Legitimacy (law) over a period of time actually and mistakenly got developed only for '
Legitimacy (family law)'. In legal studies, "Legitimacy (law)" is supposed to be refered to Legitimacy of law which is entirely vast and different subject. The present article '
Legitimacy (family law)' has limited scope to family law matters and still it is unncessarilly blocking and using misleading title of a different & wider subject.
C) Previous title Legitimacy (law) to '
Legitimacy (family law)' was moved in Jan 2015 after a note on
talk page there. In last two and half year no objection has been raised on that talk page uptill now. But links from Legitimacy (law) to '
Legitimacy (family law)' are still remaining in quite a good number of pages. Here with I seek consenus to provide apropriate & direct linking to '
Legitimacy (family law)' and not through
Legitimacy (law). Why I am requesting consensus is for wider info and relative stability to the proposed change.
D) After correcting the links in above manner the next step proposed is to move this article from
Legitimacy (criminal law) to
Legitimacy (law). The present article uptil now was and is intended for Legitimacy (law) if one studies used and proposed references in the article. Probably it was misunderstanding at the end of mover who moved the article to
Legitimacy (criminal law) since at that point of time when article was stub, references to crime law were relatively more, but that is not the condition now. Besides I do not see any immidiate separate future for title, Legitimacy (criminal law) atleast I am not likely to work on the limited scope and I do not foresee much likely hood of any body else working on with given limited feasiblity.
To sum up I seek community approval/consensus to
1) Move this article to heading Legitimacy (law)
2) to correct redierections in various articles from
Legitimacy (law) to
Legitimacy (family law).(
list). for example [[Legitimacy (law)|bastard son]] link in one of the articles needs to be changed to [[Legitimacy (family law)|bastard son]] or for example [[Legitimacy (law)#History|illegitimate]] needs to be changed to [[Legitimacy (family law)#History|illegitimate]]
Comment: Whether "legitimacy of law" term will do ? Google search is giving 67,800 searches If I put the term "legal legitimacy", out of that 12,000 searches in google books. "legitimacy of law" term gives 1,090,000 google searches out of that 142,000 are google book searches.
I took this article for writing only after primary research. If you see references and external links in the article quite a few legal theory authors seems to have written on this subject. One more question, If not any other title the Whether we can use "legitimacy" title itself for general article and have a separate "legitimacy DAB" page.
Oppose – Redirects pointing to the wrong page are not a justification for a page move. If a redirect points to the wrong article, fix it. In addition, your proposed page title is more ambiguous than the current one. If anything, I'd suggest changing
Legitimacy (law) to redirect to the main
Legitimacy disambiguation page instead, unless there's a clear primary topic (see
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC).

Comment. I agree that it would be a mistake to move any title to an ambiguous title, which should be redirected to the disambiguation page for reasons given by V2Blast above. However, if this title is to be kept, then the proposer's misgivings should be addressed. If this title is supposed to be about the "criminal law" aspect of legitimacy, then that should be its focus. As for the malplaced links, if the Legitimacy (law) redirect is retargeted to the dab page, then the links will be easy to find, and any new links will be covered by

Oppose. Surely the family law meaning is more notable than this one. This article was getting an average of two hits a day until a recent spike.
[1] The family law article gets 280 hits a day.

Comment on a lighter note : If one really compares legitimacy of family law matters affects least number of people in global population than legitimacy of criminal law, and legitimacy of criminal law affects far lesser no of people (at least in well stabilised countries) than broader concept of legitimacy of laws in itself. But flow of hits and interest is opposite.
The main thing is my where in which article do I write about broader concepts of legitimacy of law or legal legitimacy has remained unanswered. After this page move discussion ends that question is going to remain lingering before me.
Is any one giving thought to this "A topic is primary for a term with respect to long-term significance if it has substantially greater enduring notability and educational value than any other topic associated with that term." (see
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC)
Oppose move, support fixing
Legitimacy (law) to redir to the DAB page, per the above. Also support conforming scope fixes at various articles as needed (which should be done by merging material when possible, not simply excising it). —

@
Dane: Thanks for discussion close. Please do clarify your take on the second point in the discussion i.e. redirection of
Legitimacy (law) to disambiguation page and correction of linked pages, Quite a few users seems to have openionated on that point.
I fixed all the incoming links; I have not retargeted
Legitimacy (law) to the disambiguation page, but I think there is sufficient consensus for any editor to go ahead and do that.
