Both are redirects to a specific version of a comic book character. The first is essentially redundant as typing in the name using any capitalization version yields the same result. It also does not currently point directly from use in an article, only from and ANI thread and copy of that thread. This redirect is unneeded and should be deleted. The second is only linked to various Ironman competition articles which list "Caitlin Snow" as a competitor. The redirect as it currently stands results in an incorrect linkage of subjects. Given the ambiguity over which Caitlin Snow a reader could be looking for, this redirect should be moved to either [[Caitlin Snow (
*'''Obvious keep''' and disambiguate if necessary. This is what redirects are for. --[[User talk:NE2|NE2]] 14:20, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
** For clarity: I ''am'' suggesting '''Caitlin Snow''' as it currently is get moved. '''Caitlin snow''' is redundant even if moved and should be deleted. Frankly, since the search algorithm here and through places like Google are case insensitive, two essentially identical redirects should never have been created at the same time. - [[User:J Greb|J Greb]] ([[User talk:J Greb|talk]]) 15:19, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
***I agree that Caitlin snow is redundant. I don't think there's any need for Caitlin Snow (character), at least not until The Flash tv show runs on longer (as was the case with [[Clark Kent (Smallville)|characters from Smallville]]). I don't know if every athlete is deserving of recognition per [[WP:BIO]], but I won't argue if the majority want Caitlin Snow to be a disambiguation page that includes a mentioning of the Ironman competitor Caitlin Snow.--[[User:Valkyrie Red|Valkyrie Red]] ([[User talk:Valkyrie Red|talk]]) 16:46, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
****To be honest I'm looking at (character) based on 1) the situation with [[Wolverine (character)]] and 2) at this pint "Caitlin Snow" as far as DC Comics related material covers the comic book character, with 12 appearances which include uses as a background character, and the TV character, with 4 appearances to date most of which are as a core character. (character) is looking down the road.<br>As for the athlete it's more a case of something that was in place prior to the redirects. At this point a non-dabbed redirect creates confusion at a minimum. The editors that created the Ironman Championship pages operated on good faith that the competitors could/should justify pages at a later date. I don't see anything here, or inherent in the fictional character at this point, that would point to removing the links and just serving the character. - [[User:J Greb|J Greb]] ([[User talk:J Greb|talk]]) 17:33, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
