Keyshia Cole disocgraphy[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Ruslik_Zero 19:30, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely typo, implausible search term. — ξxplicit 22:06, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Implausible typo. The original creator noticed this and copy-paste moved the content to Keyshia Cole discography. I've merged the history to that article now. Jafeluv (talk) 21:59, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Republican vampire[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:52, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - obscure redirect not mentioned in the target article. Eddie's Teddy (talk) 22:02, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Chris Brown (song)[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:48, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An awkward redirect, as there has never been a song of this name. Seems that this article was created as a duplicate of the song "Say Goodbye". Not a likely search term. — ξxplicit 21:52, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hinduism - The religion[edit]

The result of the discussion was Histmerge and delete. Jafeluv (talk) 08:03, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Histmerge into HINDUISM, then delete this redirect. This redirect was mentioned in an RfD of Hinduism - The Naked Truth. Essentially, this redirect was created by a move of a POV fork to HINDUISM, which itself is a redirect to the current target. The title of this redirect is an unwieldy name is flies in the fact of WP:NAME by appearing like a book title (clearly a confusing redirect) even though there is no book with that title available. The suggestion of a histmerge into HINDUISM was mentioned in the RfD of the redirect that was deleted. This one should go, too, but the history can be saved at another redirect. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 21:21, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, unlikely search term. Checking the article traffic supports the idea that this is not used by any external links, as all traffic related to it can be assigned to it being created, checked, listed for AfD and viewed by those who reviewed it. --Taelus (talk) 21:32, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Roonscape[edit]

The result of the discussion was Keep. Jafeluv (talk) 08:06, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously? Roonscape? While that's how RuneScape is pronounced, it's not something that somebody would type into the search bar... Unionhawk Talk E-mail Review 14:07, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete-ish Neutral It is an alternate spelling, and I could see people trying this (there were 24 pageviews in September), but this is a pretty dumb redirect and I wouldn't miss it. --JaGatalk 15:48, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. There are many, many ways to feasibly misspell RuneScape, so having a limited number of redirects is useful. This, however, is not. 1ForTheMoney (talk) 16:06, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, redirects are cheap, and this is a possible misinterpretation if someone heard it spoken out loud, then decided to look it up on Wikipedia. --Taelus (talk) 19:04, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Runescape Versions[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:46, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible search term. Unionhawk Talk E-mail Review 14:06, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Unionhawk. --JaGatalk 15:48, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. "RuneScape Classic" and "RuneScape 2" are the main versions, and they're redirects that are far more likely to be used. 1ForTheMoney (talk) 16:14, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

North of Ardougne[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:44, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible redirect; I've personally never heard "North of Ardounge" used ever. Unionhawk Talk E-mail Review 14:01, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Unionhawk. --JaGatalk 15:48, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Unionhawk. Very unlikely search term. 1ForTheMoney (talk) 16:14, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, misleading redirect, it is far too small a term to ever be featured in the article it redirects to. --Taelus (talk) 19:06, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Runescape:Ranged[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:43, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible search term, but, as it was not recently created, does not fall under R3 speedy. Unionhawk Talk E-mail Review 13:56, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Unionhawk. --JaGatalk 15:48, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Unionhawk. 1ForTheMoney (talk) 16:14, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It isn't an implausible search term, however it is a misleading redirect as it will never be covered in the target article due to being too small a topic for the Wikipedia project. --Taelus (talk) 19:07, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RuneScape: Runecrafting[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:41, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible Redirect, but does not fall under R3 as it was not recently created. Unionhawk Talk E-mail Review 13:55, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Unionhawk. --JaGatalk 15:48, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as a little redundant to "Runecrafting (RuneScape)", which, in Wikipedia disambiguation terms, seems a more appropriate title. 1ForTheMoney (talk) 16:14, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Lacks notability to be covered in the target article, thus it is a misleading redirect of no real benefit. --Taelus (talk) 19:09, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Boyer temp page name[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. The only one with significant history was Adolf Hitler/temp religious beliefs, and that seems to have been copy-pasted from elsewhere and redirected without merging. Jafeluv (talk) 07:58, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this "temporary" redirect with the unusual name. There's no reason to hang onto it, but it's been here with virtually no history since 2005. Adding similar "temporary" redirects with nonstandard (or unusual) names:

147.70.242.54 (talk) 01:06, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all after histmerging any appropriate information into the destination article. If there is too much to histmerge, merge it into another redirect (even if this is caused by a move to a new name). B.Wind (talk) 16:50, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Roll with It/redirects[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. Jafeluv (talk) 22:03, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete these redirects that advertise their being redirects. We have removed dozens from Wikipedia over the last few months, and (unlike the "temporary" redirects), the number of these has gone way down... But these two survive, at least temporarily. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 00:57, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Seems no reason to keep these. --JaGatalk 15:50, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both per the deletion of similar "/redirect" redirects that we've had here over the past month or two. B.Wind (talk) 16:56, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
