Added a comment about notability issues & the need to redirect here. What shall we do about Farscape? Eusebeus 19:06, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I'll look. I'll look at Farscape, too. I haven't redirected any of them yet... guess I'm due. --Jack Merridew 10:39, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi Jack, we should figure out a remedy here. The protection is not an endorsement of one or another solution - it is simply to eliminate edit warring and will have to decided one way or the other. I am having the same issues with another misguided but committed editor at the Friends page - someone who's fandom simply impedes their ability to recognise what does and does not constitute notability. This is not going to be resolved on talk pages, especially given how much some people care about (especially) Farscape, but other series too (and in that vein Charmed is upcoming). There is going to remain a refusal to accept global consensus and instead insist upon the local consensus of a few committed enthusiasts. Hence, I recommend an RFC, perhaps framed globally (perhaps drawn from Whitecat's forum-shopping mission against TTN @ AN/I) followed almost certainly by arbitration. At least we can get a mandate one way or the other. What do you think? K, I'm off to traipse around the woods now. Eusebeus 15:47, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Oh, I see that is was just an accident of timing that locked the pages as redirects. See what the regulars say on the Farscape talk page. And have a talk with User:Diceman there.
We were recommended to use the formal dispute resolution process — which I would need to read-up on. Sounds messy. You saw that White Cat had a whole separate issue with disruption about deleting categories? — further down on the AN/I page. To file an RFC, I would think we need someone experience with the process. I'll look at the help pages on this tomorrow, or so. --Jack Merridew 15:59, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
