WP:ORPHAN, as the only link from the main space is from a disambiguation hatnote; the word "colinear" does not appear in coalgebra, the main article of the category of this article. This seems WP:OR, as the article is based on a single primary source. In any case, this is a minor subject that is not sufficiently notable for having a specific article D.Lazard (talk) 14:36, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect, to module homomorphism. There is quite a lot of minor coverage of colinear maps in reliable sources.^[1][2] But I agree with the nominator that it is a minor subject and I haven't found enough depth to justify an article.

Redirecting to module homomorphism is nonsensical, as comodules are not considered there. More generally, other names for "colinear map" could be "comodule homorphism" and "morphism of comodules". As it seems that none of these phrases occur in Wikipedia, this makes a redirect highly problematic. D.Lazard (talk) 09:32, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Comodule. The name "colinear map" is probably less standard than the names D.Lazard mentions ("comodule homorphism" and "morphism of comodules"). The minimal content is totally fine. It's very unlikely that this will be expanded beyond a stub, but the content is deserving of coverage as a section at Comodule, where it would fit it naturally (just as Module (mathematics) has a section about module homomorphisms). --JBL (talk) 17:07, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a better solution. Striking vote above. SailingInABathTub ~~🛁~~ 21:01, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• There is a clear consensus for merging into Comodule. I do not understand why this has been delisted. D.Lazard (talk) 21:05, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If another admin disagrees and sees a consensus in this discussion, they can close it at any time. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:29, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
