July 19[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on July 19, 2009

Click![edit]

The result of the discussion was Deleted. -- JLaTondre (talk) 01:48, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Back when I was a member of Wikipedia and was actually active I used to make all sorts of stupid redirects, this is one of them. It needs to go, because nowhere on the DVD cover is an explanation mark. I made this redirect purely out of stupidity, this needs to redirect somewhere that makes more sense. 194.144.87.74 (talk) 00:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • You should log into your previous account used to create that page and flag the page for speedy deletion using CSD G7: Author requests deletion. --Taelus (talk) 07:52, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

UK Swedish[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete the redirect. No prejudice against creating a disambiguation page if desired. ~ mazca talk 17:33, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete because this is an implausible search term created as a result of an AFD, the discussion of which featured as much opposition to a redirect as support. Cordless Larry (talk) 20:37, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Change to Disambig, the page in question has previously redirected to other forms of migration to the United Kingdom. In addition, it is quite plausible that "UK Swedish" may be referring the the United Kingdom of Sweden and Norway, which would be linked to here: [[1]]. A disambiguation page would be the most suitable way to deal with this in order to avoid confusion. --Taelus (talk) 07:48, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Moonshine (2009 film)[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete - no opposition to deletion and seems a fairly clear-cut case. ~ mazca talk 17:31, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The article was created with the wrong name of the film. It's been moved to the correct name, but the wrong name, which is not a likely search argument, remains. There's no evidence that "Moonshine" is or ever was an alternate title for "Moon Shot" TJRC (talk) 16:32, 19 July 2009 (UTC) [reply]

Nevelocity, Nevelocity.com[edit]

The result of the discussion was Withdrawn. -- JLaTondre (talk) 01:23, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete.As far as I'm concerned, this isn't a reasonable redirect at all. Yet, I've seen people place these redirects as CSD candidates, yet they're all declined. Nevelocity isn't actual website, but if you type "Nevelocity.com" in the address bar, it automatically goes to iCarly.com. This is an encyclopedia, so it shouldn't be done here, because it's misleading, when a user wants to search here to know what Nevelocity actually is, and you get a redirect to iCarly. Also doesn't fit according to WP:RCAT. Pinkgirl34 10:25, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The redirect target contains information, if minimal, on the topic. The two topics are relevant to each other, and it is unlikely that Nevelocity will ever gain enough notability to be given an article of its own, thus the most suitable thing to do for it would be to keep it in its current form as a redirect. --Taelus (talk) 07:42, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

::But if Nevelocity redirects to iCarly, then the readers still won't know what Nevelocity actually is. That would be very misleading, still. There should at least be an explanation to what Nevelocity actually is, in the iCarly page or somewhere else. Pinkgirl34 15:16, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, because nevelocity.com is mentioned in the text of iCarly (but it should be bolded as a redirect term). --R'n'B (call me Russ) 18:04, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

*Comment: There should at least maybe be a 'trivia' section which talks about Nevelocity redirecting to iCarly when it's typed in the Internet domain. -- Myfavouritecolourispink 21:09, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I would also like to mention that this is the third time this redirect has been nominated for deletion. The evidence that the three nominators are the same person has been discussed elsewhere and I really don't want to drag it out again; I'm only mentioning it to show that this has been attempted twice before and denied both times. -- Soap Talk/Contributions 10:58, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
