Far too vague to be a viable redirect and could also potentially apply to real life (although volcanism on asteroids is not mentioned at Volcanism as far as I can tell). ZXCVBNM (TALK) 22:52, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:REDLINK. Ceres, a dwarf planet located in the Asteroid Belt, has cryovolcanoes. 4 Vesta, an asteroid, has had lava and magma, and is not the only asteroid that has. I'm not sure if there's enough material for a Volcanism in asteroids article, but there might be enough for a Geology of asteroids article or a section at List of extraterrestrial volcanoes (which currently doesn't even mention Ceres). Therefore we should redlink until such an article/section is written.

Listing for discussion to gauge consensus. There are plenty of days which are synonymous with events, e.g. September 11th , July 4th, December 25th, all redirect to articles on the corresponding day in the Gregorian calendars as these are the primary topics. These then link to specific events. So precedent seems to be to keep the redirect and not to create a disambiguation page. Polyamorph (talk) 15:30, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep redirect to the day in Gregorian calendar. Polyamorph (talk) 15:32, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Revert to disambiguation page. "9/11" redirects to the terrorist attack, so the precedent of "September 11th" is not relevant to this discussion. "January 6th" has become shorthand for 2021 storming of the United States Capitol, especially in the United States, but not exclusively so. A disambiguation page is the best compromise. The target page January 6 has this reference buried as a wl from the word "storm", making it very hard for the user to find it. Art SmartChart/Heart 15:40, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Regardless of the outcome of this discussion, the solution to a link being buried is to improve the link as this will help everyone. Thryduulf (talk) 15:48, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Do we really need the link to the united states capital building there? I would be tempted to turn the entire phrase "storm the United States Capitol" into a link to 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 16:19, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) That sounds sensible, there are too many wikilinks for one entry, one is sufficient. Polyamorph (talk) 16:34, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as a redirect to the day page. There is no primary topic for this date - epiphany, the protests and Covid updates are all about equal in my search results. A disambiguation page would just be a subset of the day page so there isn't a need for it. Thryduulf (talk) 15:48, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep at it's current target. There have been repeated attempts to turn this into a DAB page including 2021 storming of the United States Capitol or just retargeting the page to the article on the storming which I disagree with, the clear primary topic of "January 6th" is the 6th day of January. I see no evidence that anyone is referring to the event as "January 6th" alone, all the names I could find including the date were variations like "January 6th capital riots". The event is already listed on the target page (although it could probably be made clearer), so it is already easily accessible to readers. Targeting this to the Storming of the US capital seems to me to be an textbook example of Americentrism and Recentism. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 15:53, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as is, consistently with September 11 (and September 11th), which both refer to the generic date and not to the specific event on that date. I note that September 11 states in the lede that the date is often used to refer to the terrorist attack, which may be appropriate here if a similar usage of the date can be sourced. BD2412T 17:21, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as is per above. If I searched up January 6th on Wikipedia, I would expect to land on January 6. — J947 ‡ message ⁓ edits 20:12, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The related Wikipedia:Ⅸ was deleted at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 February 10#Wikipedia:Ⅸ as not a plausible shortcut as "Ⅸ"/"IX" refers to Christianity in general not India specifically. That redirect used a single unicode character Ⅸ, this one uses the two ascii capital letters IX but is otherwise the same.
