February 20[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on February 20, 2016.

Pleasanton (Amtrak station)[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 delete. JohnCD (talk) 20:47, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is misleading. Amtrak never served Pleasanton nor are there plans for it to do so. Amtrak does and has not served any stations named Pleasanton so there's no plausible target. No article was ever located here so there shouldn't be incoming links. Mackensen (talk) 22:38, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete, this is, at best, misleading. Let's not spread error. -- Tavix (talk) 01:26, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:RFD#D2 "The redirect might cause confusion. For example, if "Adam B. Smith" was redirected to "Andrew B. Smith" and WP:RFD#D5 "The redirect makes no sense, such as redirecting Apple to Orange". Si Trew (talk) 05:40, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. --BDD (talk) 15:22, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion originally opened at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Medieval syria. Moving to WP:RFD as the proper venue. Original nomination rationale: Duplicate of Medieval Syria. clpo13(talk) 18:22, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Jahga Sports[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 delete. JohnCD (talk) 20:50, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This was created as an article about a Pakistani soccer ball manufacturer partnered with Nike (I think). It was shortly thereafter redirected, since the controversy was apparently discussed at the Nike article at the time (July 2008). Now it's not, so the redirect will only mislead and disappoint readers. I don't know if trying to recreate an article would be worthwhile. --BDD (talk) 16:54, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. --BDD (talk) 16:54, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep because of the history unless someone can offer a credible argument that this company would pass our generally accepted inclusion criteria and justify a redlink. Until it meets that threshold, the idea of redirecting a non-notable child-topic to a more notable parent is still a good one. Rossami (talk) 04:26, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. No internal links beyond this discussion, stats are well below noise level (16 in 90 days). History will be preserved even when it is deleted. Si Trew (talk) 06:12, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as above. GiantSnowman 19:58, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. If It's not discussed anywhere, this does nothing but mislead people who do search for this. -- Tavix (talk) 01:48, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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 withdrawn. (non-admin closure) clpo13(talk) 18:27, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RFD#D2, confusing, not at target. Cold Corner 3 is mentioned, but we don't have anything for that, nor for Cold Corner or Cold Corner 1 or any other Cold Corner. Si Trew (talk) 11:20, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Scrub that, I've boldly retargeted it to The Cold Corner 2. Again, the redirect itself got in the way of my finding that using WP search; Google found it. Procedural close, please. Si Trew (talk) 12:13, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:19, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target; WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. His real name is Christopher Charles Lloyd, and his stage name Lloyd Banks, but surely he is never known as Christopher Banks Lloyd. Si Trew (talk) 11:14, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blue Hefner[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:19, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete per WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target; WP:REDLINK. The artist has a mixtape called The Blue Hefner but we don't have any info on it that I can find; WP:RFD#K7 (which suggests not to redlink since anon editors can't create articles) does not apply: an anon editor would need to create the article at the correct title anyway. Si Trew (talk) 11:07, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There's a section in this article about this persona:
  • "Lloyd Banks Money Talks". xxlmag.com. 30 May 2006. Retrieved 20 February 2016.
But still, if we don't have any info on it, we should own up and say so. I'm not competent to add that reference it to the article myself. Perhaps surprisingly, I couldn't find any uses of it to mean Hugh Hefner. Si Trew (talk) 12:31, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:17, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. 50 cent discography mentions Banks as The Punchline King (my bold) in a reference; Uptown (band)#Jonathan Moon is also known as the "Punchline King", apparently. Si Trew (talk) 11:08, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:17, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target; perhaps a sequel to Rotten Apple (album), but no information there either and a gsearch was fruitless. Si Trew (talk) 11:06, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Big Withdrawl[edit]

The result of the discussion was a big withdrawal by the nominator. (non-admin closure) -- Tavix (talk) 20:04, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete both per WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target, although WP:RFD#K7 suggests we keep things to allow anon editors to expand things instead of WP:REDLINKing them (since anon editors can't create articles). The Big Withdraw appears to be an unreleased album by this artist; Withdrawl being a typo/spelling error. The Big Withdrawal is red; Withdrawal is a DAB. Si Trew (talk) 11:05, 20 February 2016 (UTC) [reply]

Forget it, I've boldly retargeted them as {{R from misspelling}} and {{R from former name}} to Rotten Apple (album) (by this artist), where it's mentioned as a working title. Procedural close, please. I did WP:BEFORE but the redirect itself blocked the results, and only by searching for "The Big Withdrawal" did I find it. Si Trew (talk) 11:43, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Typo in name (36183) 1999 TX186 -> TX16.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  05:38, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just noticed Si Trew's comment for (136693) 1998 ST49. Have now CSD G7'd (36183) 1999 TX186 as well.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  05:42, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedily deleted as WP:G7 author request. (non-admin closure) by Si Trew (talk) 11:28, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the redirect (136693) 1998 ST49 since the number in parentheses is a typo of (136993) 1998 ST49. There is no edit history worth saving, since I have already performed the move to the intended location. 136693, the typoed number, designates (136693) 1995 SE45, a main-belt asteroid. 136993, the intended number, designates 1998 ST49, an Apollo asteroid.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  03:51, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedily delete per WP:RFD#D5 nonsense, I've take this to CSD as WP:G7 author requests deletion. Si Trew (talk) 04:38, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
