At the end of the day, there are only two notable topics that can reasonably be called "Santorum" alone: the politician and the neologism. Santorum Amendment is a WP:PTM, though I'll leave it for now so we can discuss the page is. Looking at previous deletion discussions, it seems like this WP:TWODABS page only exists to avoid the unseemly and WP:BLP-questionable move of hatnoting to Campaign for the neologism "santorum" from Rick Santorum. Fine. The former is linked to in the body of the latter, and always will be as long as it's an article. This Potemkin disambiguation page does a disservice to readers by suggesting more than two topics called "Santorum". BDD (talk) 18:53, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom: there's only one Santorum, and it's Rick. There's no need for a hatnote: links are in the article. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:21, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom, the arguments in the previous AfD, and the fact that the Santorum Amendment (also known as the "Santorum language") is in fact a WP:PTM. The latter was not sufficiently examined in the last discussion, and even some keep !voters agreed that it is a partial match. We're left with just the politician and the neologism redirecting to the campaign. This scenario has been well discussed now in all three AfD debates, and should be a good enough consensus to delete the disambiguation page completely. wumbolo ^^^ 10:52, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
