Redirect target

[edit]

I don't think it's appropriate to redirect Pro-life to anti-abortion. As the pro-life disambiguation notes, pro-life does not address just abortion. The movement also holds positions on euthanasia and other issues (cloning for example). The anti-abortion article is short and not in great shape. If it needs to be redirected to an article the abortion debate article is more thorough, although the problem of covering only part of the ideology remains. There are also articles on the pro-life movement in the United States and other articles covering subjects related to this topic. THe best approach at this point seems to be to redirec tot the disambiguation page. As is noted in our articles and in reliable sources, terms like anti-abortion and pro-abortion are not neutral. So for accuracy and neutrality we should try to be as on point as possible. Candleabracadabra (talk) 00:29, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I can see your logic but the proper method to get this done is to start a WP:Requested move for the redirect. Binksternet (talk) 01:00, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I tried posting the template here, but I think it has to go on the disambiguation page talk page, requested that page be moved here. Candleabracadabra (talk) 01:16, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2013_July_10#Pro-life is clear enough. The Banner talk 01:33, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As noted above, I have initiated a new requested move at Talk:Pro-life (disambiguation). Everyone is welcome to participate and I hope that whatever their perspective they will consider my comments and address my concerns in the discussion.
