Has absolutely no association with target JMHamo (talk) 22:54, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete I agree, I moved the page originally, and should have added a tag to delete the redirect as it obviously doesn't have anything to do with the article. RickinBaltimore (talk) 23:07, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete (criterion WP:CSD#G6) as a page unambiguously created at the wrong title and/or WP:CSD#R3 as a recently created implausible redirect. The page was created and moved today so there is as close to zero chance of there being incoming links as possible. I would delete it myself, but I'd rather have someone agree with my thinking first.

Delete per WP:REDLINK. The anchor isn't mentioned at the target, but there is an NFL player with the name. [1] -- Tavix (talk) 18:24, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nominator. The horse racing columnist (who got an obituary in The Telegraph) is probably also notable. Since Wikipedia doesn't have much information about any Charles Benson right now, better just to show search results. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 05:53, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Can always be created should Benson become notable beyond the region he works. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 03:19, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request deletion, redirect is a synonym for the War in Donbass that is not used in mainstream media (I as a contributor to many Ukrainian related articles never came across this term in any media or personal contacts) and thus it is unlikely to be useful. Redirect was created by now banned user who might have created it for POV-reasons. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 17:11, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

These redirects made sense when it was initially created, because the creator also added a section to the target article. See Special:Permalink/688572309#Wikipedia article. This section was quickly removed, leaving the target article without mention of the redirect topic. SSTflyer 05:49, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
