October 27[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on October 27, 2011

Windows 8 secure boot[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 retarget to Windows 8#Hardware requirements. Thryduulf (talk) 10:54, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am proposing either deletion or a change of the redirect to Windows 8. The Windows 8 article has more information on this, and readers here will be looking for info on Windows 8, not "hardware restrictions." The title "Windows 8 secure boot" is informal (more like a Google search term); secure boot is not a feature of Windows 8 itself, but of the underlying hardware. Jasper Deng (talk) 23:51, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Windows 8#Hardware requirements as a more helpful target. Seems useful enough. Bridgeplayer (talk) 11:25, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Windows 8 article, same reasons as above --SF007 (talk) 19:19, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • The title is misleading - secure boot isn't a feature of Windows 8 (so you can't call it this).Jasper Deng (talk) 22:50, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
      • Well, this is the term used on several of the most reliable tech-related media organizations/websites (Ars Technica CNET PCWorld The Guardian etc), while it might not be 100% technically accurate, it certainly is a very helpful redirect and certainly a common name for that feature, so I don't see a problem with it, as long as the windows 8 article is technically accurate. (As a comparison, we on wikipedia make redirects with spelling mistakes and other incorrect naming, to make it easier for people to reach the appropriate articles, and I think that is a good idea) --SF007 (talk) 00:11, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Renamed to Abashiri brewery SilkTork ✔Tea time 08:30, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Refers to a deleted section in the article, apparently spam, see Talk:Hokkaido/Archive 2#Abashiri Brewery. Florian Blaschke (talk) 17:11, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's a specific search term, so one would only go to the redirect if looking for the topic. It gets an average of 60 hits a month. I think the information on the brewery was inappropriately placed in the regional article. I have moved it to the local article. I have adjusted the disambiguation page so the link no longer goes through the "Bilk (beverage)", but goes via the newly created Abashiri brewery to the appropriate article - Abashiri,_Hokkaidō#Abashiri_brewery. As such Bilk (beverage) is redundant and can be deleted. SilkTork ✔Tea time 17:54, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like a good solution to me. Fine, thanks. Now we'll have to wait – a week or so – for an admin to close the discussion and implement the decision – I presume –, but as far as I am concerned, this entry is done. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 18:56, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • As "Bilk (beverage)" had editing history, I moved it to the new name Abashiri brewery - this preserves the editing history, and removes (deletes) the now unused redirect at the same time. This resolves the issue, so I will close the discussion. SilkTork ✔Tea time 08:27, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
