November 27[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on November 27, 2008

Wanted (film) → Wanted (2008 film)[edit]

The result of the debate was keep. Already retargeted. Ruslik (talk) 09:46, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wanted (2008 film) should redirect to Wanted (film), not the other way around.

  • I read the revision history, and personally believe that it should be redirected to a disambiguation page if not the actual article, but I'm not quite sure which ones exactly. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 23:51, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Wanted dab page, specfically Wanted#Film_and_television.--Lenticel (talk) 02:13, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was Delete. Ruslik (talk) 10:21, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seems a very unlikely search term. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 16:10, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Yorkshire → Wikipedia:WikiProject Yorkshire[edit]

The result of the debate was Delete. Improper CNR. Ruslik (talk) 09:38, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Improper CNR to a wikiproject, does not link to content and is in the article space. MBisanz talk 06:04, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: What harm does it do? None that I can see. What good does it do? Could help someone who has heard of "WikiProject Yorkshire" to find it. On balance it benefits Wikipedia. Why bother to delete it? PamD (talk) 13:44, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    The issue is that being formatted in that manner places it in the article namespace, so it would show up to non-editors searching for "Yorkshire" topics, even though a WikiProject is not encyclopedic content. MBisanz talk 08:06, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: It was created for the reason that if you type WikiProject Yorkshire you did not find the project, but as ther were loads of other similar links I created it. It also if as you say search for 'Yorkshire' and get it if offers loads of links on the page to the Yorkshire related articles any way. The project page is clear that its not an article as such. It may be that the policy your deleting them under needs reviewing then as you are obviously going round picking them off one by one. Should all projects with similar links not be invited to participate by placing the notice on the project page or related page thats linked to by the redirect not the creators talk page were it hidden. - BulldozerD11 (talk) 00:22, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, inappropriate XNR. Why should this be an exception? Stifle (talk) 12:17, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, improper XNR. Linking to project namespace from the main namespace creates confusion about the difference between encyclopedic content and the coordination efforts that create the content. --Allen3 talk 22:58, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Correction and Detention Facilities → Wikipedia:Wikiproject Correction and Detention Facilities[edit]

The result of the debate was Delete. Improper CNR. Ruslik (talk) 09:31, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Improper CNR to a wikiproject, does not link to content. MBisanz talk 06:03, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete sounds good to me. Good catch.--Cdogsimmons (talk) 02:21, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the discussion above: cross-namespace redirects like this are acceptable in my view, when there's no possibility they could be confused with article content. Terraxos (talk) 05:29, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, improper XNR. Linking to project namespace from the main namespace creates confusion about the difference between encyclopedic content and the coordination efforts that create the content. --Allen3 talk 22:59, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WPtalk:ORE → Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Oregon[edit]

The result of the debate was Delete. Ruslik (talk) 10:17, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Improper CNR, there is no WPtalk pseudospace, does not link to content. MBisanz talk 06:01, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

delete: I didn't know there was such a redirect. I always use WT:ORE. Of the 4 links to it, two are because of this listing for discussion. The other two look to be incidental administrative listings. —EncMstr (talk) 07:02, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like I made it..not inclined to argue over it. Thanks for the notice though. -Pete (talk)
