Pidgin is a type of language and not a specific language. JsfasdF252 (talk) 04:09, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Tok Pisin phrasebook Pashley (talk) 04:13, 27 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment: what language is this exactly referring to? I initially thought Tok Pisin, but I think it may be referring to Nigerian Pidgin. -- SHB2000  (talk &#124; contribs &#124; meta) 04:46, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * If so, move it (without a redirect) to "Nigerian pidgin phrasebook" or "West African pidgin phrasebook". I prefer the latter since the WP article says related dialects are spoken outside Nigeria. Then add a link in Pidgin. Pashley (talk) 11:58, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
 * There is enough content to be certain it is not referring to Tok Pisin. We should preserve the content by not deleting. However, we definitely do not want "Pidgin phrasebook" as a title since there is no one Pidgin language & we already have a Pidgin article.
 * Move, without redirect. Pashley (talk) 20:12, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, move. But where? I wouldn't like "West African pidgin phrasebook", as I am pretty sure this pidgin isn't understood in say Senegal. It seems there are quite big variations already in Nigeria, but those may be workable. It seems to me that "Nigerian pidgin phrasebook" is good enough. Some dialects outside Nigeria can be covered also under that title, and if somebody would be offended by their dialect being called so, we can leave it to another phrasebook to be created if somebody cares enough. –LPfi (talk) 22:18, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
 * This is something the article's creator really should have made clear, but it seems evident from their other contributions that is probably referring to Nigerian Pidgin. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:38, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Seems there is consensus on moving the article, and Nigerian Pidgin phrasebook seems to be appropriate. Will be moved without redirect. –LPfi (talk) 14:33, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
