Winn-Dixie (disambiguation)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Only one of these things is called Winn-Dixie. The other two are distinct enough titles not to require a dab. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 16:32, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep- I've added the 'Winn-Dixie 250' Subway Jalapeño 250 races between 2003 and 2008. Dru of Id (talk) 17:20, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Still not acceptable per WP:PTM. "A disambiguation page is not a search index. Do not add a link that merely contains part of the page title, or a link that includes the page title in a longer proper name, where there is no significant risk of confusion."

It is potentially confusing enough that Winn-Dixie 250 and Winn-Dixie 250 presented by PepsiCo have been redirected to Subway Jalapeño 250 since May 2009. Dru of Id (talk) 22:04, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But it's still only a partial title match. And since it's named for the Winn Dixie supermarket chain, it should be mentioned there if it isn't already. Nothing else has the exact name Winn-Dixie, so a dab is pointless per WP:PTM. This isn't like the two Bealls department store chains.

Delete. One good entry and one weakly plausible one that could be hatnoted. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:17, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is also the sponsored name of the American Cancer Society's Hope Lodge in Atlanta, Georgia [1], though I don't know if/how that would be noted. Dru of Id (talk) 22:26, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. None of the entries other than the primary topic are ambiguous with "Winn Dixie", but are instead partial title matches -- JHunterJ (talk) 18:10, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete - Anyone searching the phrase is looking for the store. Anyone searching for the book will search for the title. There is no article for the race and until there is and it becomes a problem, there's no need for a disambiguation page. Carrite (talk) 04:55, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I see that "Winn-Dixie 250" is already a redirect, so that's no problem. Simple up-top dab lines for the book and the movie should solve the problem. It would seem this could have been done with bold editing rather than running this through AfD, pretty straightforward. Carrite (talk) 05:16, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

......And those are already disambiguated. Carrite (talk) 05:17, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Ten Pound Hammer's rational and WP:PTM. Jeepday (talk) 23:22, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
