I am going to move Notion (accessory) to Notions (sewing). The word is always used in the plural in the sense of small items or sundries used in sewing (see Merriam-Webster entry). - PKM (talk) 02:05, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A "collective term" is just a collective noun, and has nothing to do with an umbrella term. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.193.234.239 (talk) 05:06, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notions (sewing) → Notions – Primary sense of word Notions. Please note that:

• there is no need for the current redirect of Notions to the Notion (disambiguation) page as if searched in the plural there are only two meanings, either the primary one (sewing notions) or the very specific item about Winchester College.
• the specific sense (Notions (Winchester College) has 1/3 the views of the article about the primary sense (sewing notions)
• I have already added an About template to the Notions (sewing) article to accommodate the requested move.

• Oppose. Not the primary topic. Honestly, I don't believe that this article needs to exist at all. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. 162 etc. (talk) 17:12, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• oppose This article shouldn't exist it's just a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of Haberdashery along us/commonwealth english lines—blindlynx 21:54, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. In the plural form, notions is a reasonable search or wikilink term for concepts (this is currently on the dab in the form of a link from Notion (philosophy)). I doubt that this article is primary over that meaning either by usage or by long-term significance. Dekimasuよ! 15:59, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
