Dance[edit]

The dougie dance should really have its own page if it's notable. This is a DAB page, so nothing else should be on it. Does anyone know enough about the dance to create a page for it? Rnb (talk) 19:04, 16 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know about the dance, or whether it's notable. I'm interested in creating a name page, covering the name. We can either turn this into a name page, or turn it into a disambig page linking to both Dougie (name) and Teach Me How to Dougie.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 08:33, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, this is probably a little overdue, but I made the Dougie dance its own page.LittleT889 (talk) 23:33, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

The result of the move request was: move to Dougie (given name). Dougie remains as primary topic. Favonian (talk) 11:09, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Dougie (disambiguation)Dougie – Originally "Dougie" was a disambiguation page. At some point the disambiguation page was moved to "Dougie (disambiguation)", but it was replaced by a redirect to "Dougie (dance)" rather than the article itself. I'm not necessarily convinced that the dance is the main topic for this term, so I think the disambiguation should go back to "Dougie". Alternatively, if there is consensus that the dance is the primary topic, then the dance should be at "Dougie" rather than using it as a redirect. cmadler (talk) 18:28, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose; the dance is the only thing that's actually called "Dougie", so I think it pretty clearly has primary topic status. Powers T 01:36, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would not have a disambiguation page at all. The dance should be under Dougie with a hat note leading to Dougie (given name). AIRcorn (talk) 07:14, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think that this is probably the best thing to do. I had never heard of the dance before, and I had my doubts about an article on it at all, but now I think that it's probably best that it is located at Dougie, as it seems to be the primary topic, and so the name should be located at Dougie (given name). Just as you suggest.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 08:33, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
