Rosfeld

[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. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 02:20, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading and useless redirect being that we already have a Michael Rosfeld redirect to the article and there are other individuals with that last name, who have no connections to the shooting. We do not have other last name redirects to other officer-involved shootings like Wilson to Michael Brown or Liang to Akai Gurley 69.118.35.133 (talk) 21:40, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was withdrawn. -- Tavix (talk) 18:32, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The redirect made a bit of sense a few weeks ago but now that the election has passed, there's no valid target for "the next election". Pichpich (talk) 18:17, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and restore content @Pichpich: The "next Slovenian election" now refers to the next election (this is, the one to be held after the 2018 election and in or before 2022). It looks like the page was already underway collecting opinion polling for the next election. But for some reason, it looks like you blanked the page, then turned it into a redirect yourself, then ask for it to be deleted (??). In my view, the blanked content should be restored. This discussion has little sense. Impru20talk 18:25, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nevermind. I got confused by the article's history. I retract the nomination. Pichpich (talk) 18:32, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. No prejudice against recreation of correctly capitalised redirect. Deryck C. 12:46, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a remnant from a no-consensus page move. I had already created Robert Nichols (identity thief) as a redirect, so this one is probably redundant. Home Lander (talk) 17:23, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was soft delete as unopposed. Deryck C. 12:55, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Strong Lebanon" is, according to Members of the 2018–22 Lebanese Parliament a voting bloc/coalition of which the Free Patriotic Movement is the largest but not only member. I believe this redirect should be deleted if it is not first overwritten with an article about the bloc.Thryduulf (talk) 10:56, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Term not present in target article, nothing to tell the reader why they have reached this article. No evidence that this is a useful redirect. PamD 09:59, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[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 keep. Thryduulf (talk) 13:41, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neither the article, nor Google, has anything about "Coptic polyhedron/a": perhaps this is a typo for "Acoptic polyhedron". Is it a plausible typo? I suggest it's more likely to confuse the reader. PamD 09:43, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Here's one example: [1]. (It talks about coptic deltahedra, but a deltahedron is just a polyhedron with triangular faces.) If you look at Grunbaum's paper Acoptic polyhedra, the terms he uses are acoptic and nonacoptic, so "coptic" is non-standard, but it's easy to see how someone would encounter the term "acoptic" and think its negation is formed by removing the prefix. Though it's weakly attested, a mathematically-inclined reader might be more confused to look for polyhedra and only encounter topics related to Egypt. -Apocheir (talk) 21:44, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep per the sort of reasoning by Apocheir. Seems like a reasonable redirect. JoshuaZ (talk) 21:46, 29 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. Thanks, IP, for the work. --BDD (talk) 14:56, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Initially created redirecting to Lebanese Forces where the term is not mentioned. Retargetted by @Godsy: with comment "Slightly better", but still does not seem a useful redirect. PamD 08:54, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget. Thryduulf (talk) 13:45, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Team Dambulla" has several incoming links from other articles, so it is not appropriate to redirect readers to one particular tournament (in which page it has at least two "outgoing" circular links). Better to leave it as a red link until someone writes the article. PamD 08:45, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
