1. as dab: 0 valid entries - both terms bypass this dab already and go straight to the articles 2. as article(s) we already have redirects to the two articles (which are borderline dictdefs which is the cause of this) Widefox; talk 10:48, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

• Delete This started out as a stub comparing the two terms, as we still have Endogenous and exogenous in the Simple English Misplaced Pages, was converted to a DAB in 2010, but never grew beyond the two entries. With separate articles, there is no longer any need for this disambiguation article. --Mark viking (talk) 19:26, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
• Delete. A page that impedes navigation. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:19, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
• Keep, but merge/redirect. Assuming a general article on either endogeny or exogeny is warranted (and I don't think this assumption has been challenged so far), then this should be a single broad-concept article that explains the various meanings/usages of the pair of terms, similar to what has been done for example at Horizontal and vertical. I can see the beginnings of such an article in the (misleadingly titled) Exogeny, and I guess the best course of action is to move that to Endogeny and exogeny and to redirect there, and start considering whether that shouldn't also be the target of Endogenous/Endogeny (the biological meaning doesn't look like a primary topic), and Endogeneity (is a separate dab page really needed?). – Uanfala 22:16, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
• Delete - Since the title include both terms, it is not a valid disambiguation page. Plus, the difference between the terms should be obvious to those who arrive here, as they would likely know the meanings of all of the roots. RileyBugz_投稿記録 12:29, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

• Delete. As per WP:NOT#DICT (Misplaced Pages is not a dictionary. The Misplaced Pages articles endogenic and exogenic should explain the differences between the concepts. desmay (talk) 14:28, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
• Delete the DAB page, without prejudice about the creation of a wide-topic article as Uanfala suggests, but the current contents will not help that. Tigraan 16:27, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
• Delete. In the circs, an unhelpful article. Metamagician3000 (talk) 09:24, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
