Oppose. The primary meaning of "slender" is the adjective describing slenderness. The only other actual match on the page is a comparatively very minor video game, the other two listings being
partial title matches, of questionable value to a disambiguation page in the first place (I doubt there are sources wherein a "slender man" is referred to merely as being "a slender" or "the slender").

Fair enough, I have redirected "Slender" to its primary subject appropriately. A page move should no longer be necessary for the time being. —

Comment I don't think that
buckling is the primary topic of "slender" or "slenderness", since it is frequently used in fashion to describe a bodyform, and frequently found in the common world at large. Surely there is a fashion or physiology article to redirect both to? --

Oh, I see it is explicable, as a recent
WP:POINTY move by nom C. Raleigh. Still I agree with his original rationale, and the video game shouldn't be primary either. I got rid of some inappropriate links to
Slender, but some of them seem to be the name of an artist or band.

I mainly redirected "Slender" to "Buckling" because "Slenderness" had already redirected to it, so I assumed that the "Buckling" article was the closest match to
BD2412's description of Slender's primary meaning. If I am mistaken, then I apologize in advance. —
