December 1[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on December 1, 2009

Interior Decorator (Curb Your Enthusiasm)[edit]

The result of the discussion was Keep ~ Amory (utc) 14:20, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is unlikely that somebody will search for a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode by title because the show seems to place little to no emphasis on each episode's title. Also there are very few CYE episodes with their own pages which I think is also a basis for deletion as there is no precedence for it. A notable episode may warrent a redirect to the episode list but this one isn't even particularly notable. Although there are some page stats I would assume most of that is down to the article being linked from the CYE episode list until today. raseaCtalk to me 20:48, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and refine target to List of Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes#Season 1: 2000 as the episode title is indeed listed on the page (and with a synopsis), thus making the nominated redirect a useful one.147.70.242.54 (talk) 22:12, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per reasons given above. Boleyn2 (talk) 22:45, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as not going to block the creation of an article Josh Parris 23:51, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and keep all the other ones also. We always do this as a minimum for episode names when we includes any mention of them at all in the larger article. DGG ( talk ) 04:34, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:U2[edit]

The result of the discussion was Retarget to Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#U2 ~ Amory (utc) 23:05, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The current target is an inactive WikiProject. I propose retargeting to Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#U2, as other CSD abbreviations already redirect thus. For example, WP:G2, WP:A2, WP:R2, WP:T2, etc. Retarget. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 20:20, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Given this seems like a reasonable idea, within the hour I'll be finished bypassing the 90-odd links to this redirect. Josh Parris 00:09, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Job done, heavy server lag slowed progress. Nothing links to the nominated article. Josh Parris 02:11, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've just re-confirmed there are no links (despite What links here says) Josh Parris 04:06, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ōwakudani/redirects[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete Josh Parris 04:09, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect that advertises that it is a redirect was caused by a temporary page move. Like so many we've managed to eliminate in the past few months, this is a most highly improbable search item that has served its purpose and should be eradicated. With the same justification, I also nominate

147.70.242.54 (talk) 20:17, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as housekeeping Josh Parris 23:51, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per previous RfDs. Unlikely search term, not beneficial. --Taelus (talk) 10:38, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Deleted per Josh's argument: this is purely housekeeping. Nyttend (talk) 00:57, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Jeremy Glick (author)[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. Killiondude (talk) 07:12, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Glick does not seem to even be mentioned in article. Boleyn2 (talk) 13:42, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - this was originally an article that went through AfD, whereupon it was closed as "merge into Criticism of Bill O'Reilly"; then the new target itself was merged into Bill O'Reilly. Along the line, this redirect lost all relevance to its target(s). Deletion is desirable as there is another Jeremy Glick unrelated to this one. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 16:10, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, no context Josh Parris 23:51, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • While Glick would likely fail WP:BLP1E that redirect does get a non-trivial amount of traffic every day, so people have to be using it. ~ Amory (utc) 14:36, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment People may be looking him up, but it can only cause confusion and wasted time, as they search the article for information on him. It would be far better to draw a blank immediately and realise that WP has no information on this author. Boleyn2 (talk) 20:25, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Parris. — The Man in Question (in question) 20:22, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User:Joeydauben/Joey Dauben[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was CSD G8, target was deleted. --Taelus (talk) 19:18, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

R2: Cross Namespace redirect Adam in MO Talk 11:18, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • User to Mainspace is not banned, as it won't show up in any search terms. Whilst the target for this redirect no longer exists, it is up to the user whether they keep them as it is within their userspace. They cause no harm where they are currently, and are not visible via searching. --Taelus (talk) 13:34, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete CSD G8 - redirect to a nonexistent target. Tagged (as are the next two below). 147.70.242.54 (talk) 16:02, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

R2: Cross Namespace redirect Adam in MO Talk 11:15, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • This would strike me as potentially confusing, but I cannot find anything in WP:USERPAGE that says they may not do this. Only user talk pages have rules about redirecting. Additionally, this doesn't fall under R2, as that only applies to redirects coming from the mainspace. --Taelus (talk) 13:38, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Variedad Nehari[edit]

The result of the discussion was  Relisted at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 December 10#Variedad Nehari. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:21, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Non-admin contested WP:CSD#G6. Article is a redirect from a foreign translation of the title. Sławomir Biały (talk) 00:02, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I removed the speedy tag — I don't see any speedy criterion met by this redirect. I also don't see any point in deleting it — it's accurate, not misleading or ambiguous, not POV, it doesn't insult anyone, etc etc. I would never have bothered to create such a redirect if it weren't there already, but I don't understand why bother to delete it either. --Trovatore (talk) 01:43, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment the term "Variedad Nehari" gets 2ghits outside of WP. Josh Parris 23:51, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It's a Spanish term for a very advanced mathematical concept with almost no Google hits under the Spanish name. Hans Adler 15:36, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Useful, and there's no harm in keeping it. Redirects from non-English names are encouraged. ~ Amory (utc) 22:58, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Butkus Stallone[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete ~ Amory (utc) 22:46, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Butkus was Sylvester Stallone's dog and appeared in the first two films but he is not mentioned in the target article. AdamBMorgan (talk) 18:53, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak retarget to Rocky II. He's not mentioned in the parent article, but (with a different spelling), the dog's name appears in the "Cast and Crew" section of the Rocky II article (not in the article for the first one), but since the name of the dog is so trivial to the movie, deleting the redirect and removing the redlink in Rocky II is just as "good." 147.70.242.54 (talk) 21:16, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Anyone who wants to learn about Butkus will not find information on Wikipedia, so this redirect is actively unhelpful. — The Man in Question (in question) 20:21, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Butcrease Stallone[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete ~ Amory (utc) 14:39, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Butcrease was Sylvester Stallone's dog (withe his actual name or the film dog's name); he appeared in the first two films but he is not mentioned in the target article. AdamBMorgan (talk) 18:59, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
