StepchildStepchild (disambiguation) – The primary meaning of the word "stepchild" is the meaning found within the article Stepfamily. This meaning is far more recognizable than either the song or brand of snowboard. Please create a disambiguation page and redirect stepchild to stepfamily, as has been done with stepmother and stepfather. C-PTSD (talk) 14:02, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Support - in this case given that neither Stepchild (song) (on Solomon Burke 2002 album Don't Give Up On Me), nor StepChild Snowboards appear notable, there doesn't even seem much need for a disambiguation page. But by all means move the existing disamb to Stepchild (disambiguation). In ictu oculi (talk) 01:05, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Agreed on the notability of the items you listed. I can't move the disamb; the page already exists. Would need an admin to complete the move. C-PTSD (talk) 12:28, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
I should add that Stepchild (disambiguation) was created by a bot (SmackBot) and redirected to the existing disamb page; my understanding is that there was no person calling into question whether "stepchild" with regards to Stepfamily was the most notable meaning of the term. In the absence of such an objection now, the move should be completed. C-PTSD (talk) 12:32, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I've added the necessary "redirect" hatnote at Stepfamily, to make the dab page findable! PamD 16:03, 12 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
