  • Comment - It might be useful to know what these redirects say. I don't read either Chines or Korean (and presumably othere here do not either) so it might be useful to have a translation. The fact that the redirect was created by a sockpuppet is, in and of itself, not enough reason to delete it. —mako๛ 17:21, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - according to Google Translate it is Korean for 'Democratic People's Republic of Korea'.
  • Keep - by long precedent we keep redirects that, as here, are the name of the subject of the article in the subject's native language. In addition, this term is used in the article. Bridgeplayer (talk) 17:35, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep if it's Korean for this particular iteration of the DPRK, it should be kept. 70.24.251.158 (talk) 05:21, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, we have precedent for keeping this type of redirect. Deleting this redirect will make someone else recreate it or inconvenience those who want to find out what these characters mean, so let's just ignore the G5 speedy deletion criterion. Nyttend (talk) 05:26, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - this is Chinese for 'People's Republic of Korea' and doesn't meet the requirement for being in the native language of the subject. Bridgeplayer (talk) 17:50, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep this is Hanja for that term, so is the native language of the subject. 70.24.251.158 (talk) 05:23, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Korean for 'People's Committee of North Korea'. Redirect in the native language of the subject. Mentioned in the target. Bridgeplayer (talk) 17:56, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Korean language name for the target, which is its native language. 70.24.251.158 (talk) 05:24, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No mention in target. Natib Qadish was deleted repeatedly, and I doubt anyone's going to tack on the parenthetical in search of it. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:44, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was restore article that was previously at this title with no prejudice to an AfD. Thryduulf (talk) 11:37, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Probably created in good faith, but it masks the nonexistence of an album page by redirecting, non-specifically, back to the group.
Varlaam (talk) 17:46, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Restore article at this version without prejudice to it going to AFD. Looking at Kansas discography pretty much all other Kansas' albums have their own page so I am not sure why this one should not have. I am not sufficiently knowledgeable to judge notability of this album but AFD can sort that out if need be. I see no benefit in deletion in order to encourage a new page to be written when we have a ready made start to hand! Bridgeplayer (talk) 23:48, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
In my 20000+ articles worth of edits, I don't remember noticing a Redirect becoming an article. Possibly it happens frequently.
But the joker who then writes the actual article gets no brownie points for having created the thing, because this silly redirect is already there occupying the namespace.
Blow the thing away, and let whoever it is bash away at something better.
Varlaam (talk) 00:17, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The article was boldly redirected and that was fine; I think the redirect should be reversed and that would also be fine and most certainly not a first. I agree that a redirect would inhibit article development but since we have a workable stub I see no reason to start from a red link. Bridgeplayer (talk) 02:10, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
