Disney Channel (Kazakhstan) → Disney Channel (international) (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

Doesn't have info about this channel. jcnJohn Chen (Talk-Contib.) RA 12:16, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom: Article does not contain any information about Disney Channel (Kazakhstan). Redirect creator has a history of WP:DISRUPTive redirects. Logical Cowboy (talk) 01:07, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: the topic seems to be not notable enough even for redirect. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 12:04, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom.--Lenticel ^(talk) 00:56, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Disney Channel, --TBrandley (talk) 04:10, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Disney Channel is the American channel, without any Kazakh content. A redirect from Disney Channel (Kazakhstan) doesn't make sense. Logical Cowboy (talk) 16:59, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cryohydrate → wikt:Cryohydrate (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

Not wikt. Should be a redlink per WP:REDLINK, since the possibility exists for encyclopedic content here. — This, that, and the other (talk) 09:58, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: per WP:REDLINK. Redlink will increase the chances for an actual article to be written on that location. --lTopGunl (talk) 10:04, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think a redlink is the best solution in this case. Either ~~restore the deleted version (from 2012 Feb 23) and tag with {{stub}}~~ or replace the current (broken) hard-redirect with the soft-redirect {{wi}}. I'm willing to give the restored stub a chance - we can always convert it back to a soft-redirect if the page is not expanded in a reasonable time. Rossami (talk) 14:40, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Strike that. The deleted stub was a copyright violation and needs to stay deleted. Rossami (talk) 14:42, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Do you expect that no encyclopedic content can be written? — This, that, and the other (talk) 09:26, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - I am uncertain. When attempting to draft a replacement stub myself, I found no sources that supported more than a mere dictionary definition. It's not my area of expertise, though. I do not know whether an article is possible. I could live with either redlink or {{wi}} until someone does write a proper article. Rossami (talk) 17:16, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete per WP:CSD § G8. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 12:07, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for now.--Lenticel ^(talk) 00:57, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Discrimination against non-Muslims in Pakistan

The result of the discussion was keep. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 00:16, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Discrimination against non-Muslims in Pakistan → Freedom of religion in Pakistan (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

The article is about freedom of religion in Pakistan. Though it might discuss if there have been incidents where it has been breached for non Muslims, it doesn't mean that it should be implied that this article is about discrimination of these rights. This is a POV redirect. lTopGunl (talk) 08:39, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:RNEUTRAL (POV fork). The classical redirect use case IMHO. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 12:10, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This was not a POV fork, rather created as a redirect. [1] --lTopGunl (talk) 12:47, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I know. The idea is the same, actually: this page redirects from non-neutral title to a neutral one. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 21:02, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The redirect fits within a couple of point of Wikipedia:REDIRECT#Purposes_of_redirects, and doesn't hit any of the major reasons for deletion. Also per Czarkoff's comment above. Ajraddatz (Talk) 22:19, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep the stats show one or two hits a day so there is little use of redirect which is an unlikely search term. However it has been around since 2005 so it will be deep in the mirrors so possible links from external sources. While its not an exact match the target is close enough by redirect standards.--Salix (talk): 22:32, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
