Traffic anonymization → Anonymity (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The target article is unclear on what this redirect refers to as the word "traffic" is not present in the target article. Steel1943 (talk) 20:16, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Anonymity#Anonymity on the Internet, which is the subject at issue. -- The Anome (talk) 20:20, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget either to Anonymity#Anonymity on the Internet as The Anome suggests or to Internet Privacy which does discuss anonymity and internet traffic. Thryduulf (talk) 19:54, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Sponge#Fossil record. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 16:19, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Primitive Sponge → SpongeBob SquarePants (season 1)#ep14a (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not mentioned in target article. Due to lack of mention, this term could possibly WP:SURPRISE readers attemption to find information about primitive sponge animals. Steel1943 (talk) 19:57, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to List of Internet phenomena#Animation. Mentioned as "Caveman SpongeBob", while one of the sources uses the name of this redirect. wumbolo ^^^ 20:05, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- ...the specific phrase "primitive sponge" is not mentioned there in context either. Retargeting there would result in another WP:SURPRISE. Steel1943 (talk) 20:07, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The best target for someone looking for primitive sponges (the animal) is probably Sponge#Fossil record. Sponge (material)#History could also be relevant, though it strikes me that neither the animal nor the material have changed so much throughout history, so talking about a "primitive" version of either one is a bit funny. --BDD (talk) 22:09, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Sponge#Fossil record with a hatnote to Sponge (material)#History per BDD. Thryduulf (talk) 20:09, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pearl Krabs 1 → Pearl Krabs (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Unclear what the "1" is meant to represent, and thus is misleading and possibly WP:COSTLY. Steel1943 (talk) 19:48, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as implausible. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 23:12, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Bopkins → 4chan (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This was a rumoured name of 4chan's owner way back when Christopher Poole was unknown. Not mentioned at the target nor anywhere else. —Xezbeth (talk) 18:48, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Natsuki Orsiko → 4chan (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Jeremie Dalin → 4chan (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Testbook → Educational technology (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Testbook is the name of a company about which an article was created here previously, now at Draft:Testbook (company). There is no mention of the company at the destination page, Educational technology. The only value to this redirect would be to create a link in someone's mind between the name of the company and the concept of educational technology. Largoplazo (talk) 15:07, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - A non-notable company name is not a logical redirect to so broad an article. Noting from Draft:Testbook that the equation of Testbook to Educational technology was generated by a (properly disclosed) paid employee of the company.
- For that matter, why do we have three different drafts, with almost the same information, for one non-notable company? Draft:Testbook, Draft:Testbook (2), Draft:Testbook (company). Largoplazo (talk) 17:07, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. I can consolidate the drafts AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:36, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Textbook and tag with {{R from typo}}. They sound similar if you say "textbook" sloppily, and the keys are adjacent with a QWERTY keyboard. Nyttend (talk) 18:30, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. I oppose "retarget to Textbook" since the existence of multiple drafts seems to prove that redirecting this elsewhere as a {{R from misspelling}} is not advised since this specific spelling could represent a different topic, so thus redirecting to Textbook could be seen as a WP:SURPRISE. In addition, disregarding the subject in the drafts, I would have thought this spelling would represent a subject about a book of tests. Steel1943 (talk) 19:40, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Placeholder name. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 16:10, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You-Know-Who → Lord Voldemort (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
You Know Who → Lord Voldemort (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
You know who → Placeholder name (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete Back in 2008 a similar redirect was deleted, click here to see what I'm talking about. This is a similar redirect that should be deleted for the same reason. You Know Who is so vague and can apply to a lot of different things, it's not exclusive to Voldemort therefore it's not a useful redirect. Blaze The Movie Fan (talk) 12:32, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Placeholder name, which covers names such as "What d'ye call him", "Thing'em-bob", "What's-his-name", and "You-know-who". Nyttend (talk) 12:44, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I have added/bundled You Know Who and You know who into this nomination. Steel1943 (talk) 20:03, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget all to Placeholder name per Nyttend, considering that is the current target of You know who. Steel1943 (talk) 20:03, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Steel1943, that's not a longstanding thing; I just retargeted it today. It was previously a Wiktionary redirect. Nyttend (talk) 01:00, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree with it either way. Either that, or delete the lot of them. I oppose "keep". Steel1943 (talk) 01:22, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget all to Placeholder name which has directly relevant content. Thryduulf (talk) 20:17, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Coolpad 3600I → commons:Category:Taken with Coolpad Note 5 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The Coolpad Note 5 cellular phone does not seem to be covered locally. If this device is not covered locally and was covered at Commons, then this might be a reasonable redirect. However, this currently targets a category at commons that contains pictures that were captured using this device, making it an inappropriate target. — Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 12:03, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Portal:Fantasy → Wikipedia:WikiProject Fantasy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Misleading redirect. You would expect a portal, not a wikiproject. --wooden superman 12:00, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget (i.e. restore) to Portal:Speculative fiction/Fantasy, where it pointed from its creation in 2011 until earlier today. — Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 12:06, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I should have looked at the history! I shall withdraw. --wooden superman 12:35, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pearl Krabbs aka Caller → The Best Day Ever (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Seems confusing as "Krabbs" is spelled wrong, and the title is a WP:PTM as it is missing the "5!" at the end. That, and Pearl Krabs aka Caller 5! already exists. Steel1943 (talk) 01:57, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

SpongeBob GayPants → List of Two and a Half Men episodes (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

After looking around for a while on third-party engines, I'm not able to find any evidence that this was the name of a episode of Two and a Half Men, nor am I able to find any connection to the aforementioned subject at all except for the mention of this being a {{R from quote}}; however, if the quote was notable enough, one would think that there would be more information about it on third party search engines.

The result of the discussion was retarget to Avenger. (non-admin closure) Catrìona (talk) 19:52, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Avengers (group) → Nakam (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Neither "Nakam" (revenge) nor its Hebrew acronym, "DIN" (the blood of Israel avenges) actually means "The Avengers". A number of Jewish partisan groups in Eastern Europe were called "The Avengers", and some of them are probably notable, so this should be a redlink. Catrìona (talk) 00:48, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Would Avengers (comics) fit? –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 02:20, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think that, if the redirect is to be retargeted, Avenger (a dab page) would be a better choice, because there is no clear PRIMARYTOPIC given the profusion of comics, movies etc. Catrìona (talk) 17:16, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Avenger per nom. There are sections entitled Avenger#Groups and labels and Avenger#Groups and organizations (and other assorted groups, like the comics), each of which would be a good target if the others didn't exist. Sounds like a great situation for disambiguation. Nyttend (talk) 18:35, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
