Meanings are mostly dictionary definitions or abbreviations (which the target article does not include the abbreviation). It should be redirected to Flagellation which will have a hatnote to Glossary_of_blogging#Flog. GZWDer (talk) 11:00, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
- Agree Almost none of the options are links to relevant pages. Not voting "Delete" per se since you're asking for a content change, not a removal. Jergling (talk) 15:03, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

- Support. Flagellation is easily the WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT, and the only other legitimate usage in Wikipedia (remember WP:NOTDIC) would be at Glossary of blogging#Flog. -- Tavix (talk) 21:08, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep, albeit with massive cleanup. I was going to say redirect to Flagellation, but I noticed Flogger (another disambiguation page) as well as the glossary item. Therefore, I recommend rewriting the DAB page to point at Flagellation, Glossary of blogging, and Flogger. Alternately, you could consider redirecting and adding two hatnotes at Flagellation. Cnilep (talk) 04:20, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- I removed the slang definitions and other bullets not appropriate for a disambiguation page. There are still four arguably ambiguous items, though: Flagellation, Fake blog, and Glossary of blogging#Flog, plus a blog by Felicia Day called The Flog. Cnilep (talk) 07:31, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Keep 4 valid entries, with articles or meeting MOS:DABMENTION. Boleyn (talk) 10:26, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Weak Keep - Some are weak (an article about a celebrity who writes a blog that's mentioned in passing in the article for example), but it seems like a valid dab. — Rhododendrites talk
