This is not at all a likely search result, and I really don't see this redirect helping anyone. Dustin (talk) 22:21, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • This originated from a page move during an article title naming dispute in May 2014 for the article that is today at the target but has had quite a few other names. This one looks to have been created very much as a WP:POINT thing, and so I was on the verge of recommending speedy deletion. However, then I checked the traffic statistics and this got 8 hits in the 30 days leading up to the nomination, and 40 in 2016. This latter 10 times as many as I was expecting (even clearly implausible redirects seem to get about 1-4 hits a year classified as human that I suspect aren't). It is linked from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Elements/Archive 18 but a mention in a 3-year old archive is unlikely to generate more than a handful at most of hits, so there is something else going on here that I don't understand. Is this the sort of thing that will be asked as a homework question perhaps? Don't speedy delete is the most firm recommendation I can come up with at this point, but I've left a note for Nergaal, who moved the page to this title, and I'm about to leave a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Elements so they may be able to shed more light. Thryduulf (talk) 23:30, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • I can't remember exactly how, but I stumbled upon this by accident after the redirect popped up while I was typing something unrelated into the search bar. I have little doubt that the great majority of views of this redirect occurred in the same manner, with people viewing the redirect by accident rather than by seeking it out. Dustin (talk) 01:18, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete. The need for such a redirect has long passed. Sandbh (talk) 01:30, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Sandbh. Double sharp (talk) 02:59, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. As Thryduulf smartly deduced: it was created in a page (and topic) naming row, now rather meaningless even in the issue. -DePiep (talk) 08:46, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I agree that traffic for this title is likely coming from people who play around with the search function. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 01:35, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:03, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was disambiguate as proposed. Deryck C. 10:37, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would like this to be changed into a disambiguation for other things like Hanazuki: Full of Treasures and redirecting Miu Hanazuki to List_of_Aikatsu!_characters#Noted-Minor_Students which I'm nominating now. Ranze (talk) 22:14, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I tagged the nominated redirect and notified its creator. (The nominator is unable to tag the redirect due to a community-enforced editing ban relating to redirects.) Steel1943 (talk) 00:46, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Two dab this. The TV show is recently released so it will attract most if not all recent searches. As for Miu Hanazuki, the character is a partial title match and a very minor character in the franchise who does not go by just her last name as common the entire time, so I don't see a reason why she would need to be added to a dab list. In fact her character redirect should probably be removed.. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:16, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Confusing since this user access level or right, as far as I can tell, doesn't exist. Steel1943 (talk) 17:18, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete There was one years ago. It was removed back in 2008, one day after I made the redirect to deal with a red link on Special:ListGroupRights. Looks like I forgot to tag it for G7 when that happened. FunPika 19:13, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Nominator comment: Since this editor is the creator of this redirect, I have tagged the redirect with {{Db-author}}. Steel1943 (talk) 21:16, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep/retarget so both point to Wikipedia:Editors matter. Thryduulf (talk) 00:26, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Should both target the same target. For the record, Wikipedia:EM has several incoming links, whereas Wikipedia:Em has only 1 incoming link (not counting the one on this page.) Steel1943 (talk) 16:48, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Recently (December 2016) created cross-namespace redirects. AddWittyNameHere (talk) 05:11, 29 January 2017 (UTC) Merged listings. AddWittyNameHere (talk) 05:14, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This seems intended as a pseudo-namespace redirect. Wikipedia:Shortcut#Pseudo-namespaces lists "WikiProject" in the section "The following prefixes do not enjoy broad community support". If you want to add such redirects get consensus to change that before doing so. Thryduulf (talk) 13:24, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure how this is a helpful application of a redirect. It seems like it would be more helpful targeting Wikipedia:WikiElf. Steel1943 (talk) 01:16, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This was created as a shortcut to a 2010 deletion discussion, possibly as an easy pointer in the event the article was re-nominated for a sixth time. That obviously hasn't happened, so the shortcut serves no purpose and is never used. - Eureka Lott 04:58, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I expect that this was useful during the life of that discussion and possibly for a short time afterwards, and stats.grok.se possibly backs this up. However that utility is now all in the past so it can be deleted. Thryduulf (talk) 13:28, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Cultural diplomacy. (non-admin closure) - Consensus is clear at present, but given the brevity of the discussion and the general trickiness/vagueness of the topic, let that close not preclude further discussions. – Uanfala (talk) 00:07, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not about cultural exchange in general and no other article about exactly that to redirect to. (Btw that would be an article worth creating!) Fixuture (talk) 11:55, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
