2021 NBA G League draft

[edit]

@SportsGuy789: Just to explain why everyone is unlinking 2021 NBA G League draft: we're attempting to FIXDABLINKS which show up on the daily Templates with disambiguation links error report. As a last resort we sometimes have to mark an intentional link to a disambiguation page but, as both of its entries are already linked in the adjacent bracket, it's hard to see how the extra link adds value here.

Also, the template shouldn't appear on the dab, per MOS:DAB#Images and templates. It's not necessary for disambiguation, because the descriptions on the two entries serve that purpose. (I'm glossing over the fact that the entire dab should be replaced by a redirect per WP:G14.) Certes (talk) 00:18, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the explanation. Makes sense. I get what you're saying about G14 but the reality is there will be another 2021 draft this coming October, so IAR applies here considering the inevitability of the next draft, which would make this disambiguation page necessary.

Agreed, which is why I'm invoking WP:IAR rather than pedantically following G14. Certes (talk) 20:21, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
