I quote DoubleGrazing's previous edit summary when declining this AFC draft that has now escaped to mainspace: "I think this comes under WP:DABNOT. Dab pages are not there to list every imaginable thing which has some conceivable connection with the term..." It is not required. It is contrived and should go. There are even redlinks in it! 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 15:26, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

- Keep – this DAB is fine. Red links are acceptable in DAB pages as long as the reader can go somewhere ( WP:DABRED). I would also say even ignoring the red links, the Anti-Censorship Coalition and esports player are probably enough for a DAB on their own, especially if search results are rather ineffective as the mentioned RFD claims. (There was also a pretty clear consensus to disambiguate there, which probably also lends itself to keeping.) Skarmory (talk • contribs) 15:47, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- Speedy keep per the consensus of the RfD discussion that this should be a disambiguation page. The page as it stands is perfectly acceptable even by very strict interpretations of what is acceptable for disambiguation pages. Thryduulf ( talk) 16:20, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

- Comment I won't try to argue against the RfD outcome, which I think is as good an indication of community consensus as any, but I will say this much: per
WP:DDD redlinks should not be included on a dab page unless articles point to them; links to other language versions are also at best borderline per
WP:DABSISTER; and that last item must be a joke (seriously, who searches for 'AZK' when wanting to go to
Counter-Strike match fixing scandal?). Take those out, and you're not really left with much. --

- In answer to your last question, someone wanting to read about the match fixing scandal as a whole is unlikely to use AZK as a search term, however those who want to read about Keven "AZK" Larivière and/or his role in the scandal is very plausibly going to search on "AZK". The only link to another language version in the dab page is the automatically generated interwiki to the disambiguation page on the German Wikipedia, so that part of your comment doesn't make much sense. If you are referring to the Anti-Censorship-Coaltion, then the German acronym for this organisation is used when writing about it in English, so is arguably the strongest entry here.

- Keep. The assertion that "redlinks should not be included on a dab page unless articles point to them" is not policy, and is not exactly what WP:DDD says. The term is sufficiently mentioned in the blue-linked articles. BD2412 T 17:27, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
