- DAB or Redirect to Television antenna#Indoor. I agree that indoor television antenna can be appropriately covered at the suggested target, but the less-specific term may be ambiguous, as there can be other antennas that are indoor and not used for television. — Ost ( talk) 18:02, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:26, 1 March 2022 (UTC)- Agreement with Ost316, in that a better term may be more helpful to users who are looking for information about indoor antennas. 71.179.1.78 ( talk) 14:15, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Redirecting to Television antenna is not a suitable solution since indoor antennas for radio reception also exist, particularly the folded dipole constructed from twin-lead [1] which can be nailed to a skirting board. Particular topics can be redirected to a more general one, but we shouldn't redirect a general topic to a particular one. Spinning Spark 20:52, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:BEFORE. Being a stub isn't a good reason to delete. Bearian ( talk) 20:51, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Meets WP:SIGCOV per SpinningSpark's argument. SBKSPP ( talk) 01:14, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
