Not required, Eight Precepts is already an article. Goes against WP:MOS principles for naming articles (inclusion of article). Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 23:43, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both. Odd use of brackets and of unclear purpose. Unlikely search terms. PC78 (talk) 22:26, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete unless there is a good explanation. These do seem really odd redirects (the second was autocreated by a bot based on the first), but there must have been some reason for creation - the creator seems to be still around so I've left them a note. They get a surprising amount of hits - 24 last year and the year before, 23 the year before that, which is about 20 more than I'd expect for something like this, but Google is drawing a blank on what the source might be.

Retarget to AGP. Seems to be a logical target, unlike the current one. Mjroots (talk) 19:22, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget per nom. This is where google's lack of case sensitivity is really frustrating, but I'm not seeing any obvious indication that Agp or agp has a primary topic (AGP in capitals clearly has none). Thryduulf (talk) 11:13, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mayor Pete

[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. ~ Amory (utc) 14:36, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect from massively ambiguous title to one name: Pete Buttigieg. Wikipedia has articles on 7 mayors named "Pete" (including Pete Buttigieg), and to 138 other mayors who first names begin with "Peter", any or all of whom may be known by the common abbreviation "Pete". (Full list on the talk page: WT:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 March 17#Mayor_Pete).

We could in theory convert this to a disambiguation page, but is really a good use of editorial time to create and maintain several thousand "JobTitle Firstname" disambiguation pages? It would require huge ongoing effort to keep them up to-date, and I think that readers would be better served by searching.

Note that I RFDed this at WP:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2019_March_17#Mayor_Pete, but the creator asked for it to be G7ed. It has been re-created by a different editor,@Volunteer Marek. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:20, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in the target article and no other suitable target; removed from article early this year. Apparently, this artist only contributed one song to the record label in 2018. Jalen D. Folf (talk) 15:07, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - There has been a rash of brief articles and redirects for people loosely associated with the Monstercat record label, possibly created for promotional purposes. For this particular redirect, I agree with the nominator's reasoning. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:48, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No idea why the Georgian name (or transliteration) for Iraq would be a good redirect on the English language Wikipedia. Fram (talk) 13:32, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Fram: Why I do it? Because in Georgian Iraq (erak(y)i-ერაყი), every languages has redirects in enwiki, that's why---ჯეო (talk) 13:34, 25 March 2019 (UTC)--ჯეო (talk) 13:36, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The only non-Latin script redirects to Iraq on enwiki are in Arabic script, we don't have redirects in Cyrillic, Thai, Chinese (Mandarin), Japanese, ... scripts. In general, we don't use redirect in languages and scripts which have no clear, major link to either English (as the language of this wiki) or the main language(s) of the subject of the target article. Georgia and Iraq don't even share a border. Fram (talk) 13:53, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Tater salad

The phrase "tater salad" isn't used anywhere in the Potato salad article, and I doubt many people are searching for information on potato salad using this colloquial term, so I suggest retargeting to Ron White. Nor should anyone be WP:ASTONISHED to end up at the comedian's bio, based on a Google image search for "tater salad". For the few who might be, we just include a hatnote linking to Potato salad. No incoming mainspace links, so link breaking is not an issue. Sangdeboeuf (talk) 17:29, 17 March 2019 (UTC) (edited 01:30, 18 March 2019 (UTC))[reply]

Changing request to delete given that the nickname is capitalized as Tater Salad. So there seems to be no need for this redirect. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 19:22, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

2019 Venezuelan power grid sabotage

The result of the discussion was keep. As noted below, redirects need not be neutral, only useful and plausible. ~ Amory (utc) 14:42, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Procedural nomination. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2019 Venezuelan power grid sabotage. wumbolo ^^^ 12:53, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Citing article text with sources:
    • "The administration of Nicolás Maduro blamed foreign US sabotage for the outage"
    • "Prosecutor General Tarek William Saab announced an investigation of Guaidó for sabotage"
    • "China had received reports that the power grid had gone down due to a hacking attack"
    • "Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Russia agrees with Maduro that Western sabotage caused the power outage in Venezuela."
    • More reactions with sabotage/attack mentions: President of Bolivia Evo Morales [1], President of Cuba Miguel Díaz-Canel [2]
    • Hardly a violation of NPOV. It should be the title of the original article, the event has been named sabotage/attack by several authorities, so a redirect is appropriate. emijrp (talk) 08:09, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I figured that I should provide examples on how these are allegations and there aren't proofs of it being an "attack" or a "sabotage":
  • "Sources cited by Corpoelec (the state-owned national electricity company) indicated a vegetation fire occurred on three lines of 765 kV between the Gurí Dam and the Malena and San Gerónimo B substations. The fire overheated the lines, triggering load rejection mechanisms that protect the lines connected to the dam. According to the School of Electrical Engineering of the Central University of Venezuela, the momentary loss of power at the Gurí Dam caused the turbines to increase their speed, creating an overload on electrical systems."
  • "Satellite images show that the vegetation fire in the Guri started a day before the blackout."
  • "Engineers and analysts quoted by The Guardian say the cause is underfunding and mismanagement"
  • "Venezuelan energy experts cited by El Pitazo have rejected the theory that the blackout was caused by sabotage, since the area of the Gurí Dam is heavily guarded by members of the Armed Forces, where it operates a special command and the internal security of Corpolec."
  • "These specialists have also pointed out that Gurí was constructed before the Internet existed, does not use the Internet, hence does not allow for hacking."
  • "A risk management consultant cited by El Nacional dismissed the statement by government officials and assured that the design of the hydroelectric plant system does not allow "attacks" of that type."
Quoting governemnt officials and their allies it's very different from quoting details and experts in the area--Jamez42 (talk) 11:23, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Hoax. No such place/name exists. Looks like the name was inserted in many articles (which has since been cleaned up) and this redirect created from that. Gotitbro (talk) 02:03, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and add matching redirect at Duggar Desh. Google Books search finds plenty of publications using it. Example: "The substance of Dogri folk songs is usually the praise of natural scenery of Duggar Desh..." - Census of India, 1961: Jammu and Kashmir. On which topic, at Dogri language we see: "Dogri speakers are called Dogras, and the Dogri-speaking region is called Duggar.", cited to: Narain, Lakshmi (1965). An Introduction to Dogri Folk Literature and Pahari Art. Jammu and Kashmir Academy of Art, Culture and Languages. The Britannica article for the Dogri language[3] says "Dogri (using the paleonym Duggar)..." so perhaps it should be a {{R from former name}}, although I'd hesitate to put that on there without verification. Some people on Instagram are posting using the tag "#Dogradesh" as well, so there seems to be a transliteration issue here.  — Scott talk 16:43, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:TOOSOON. There are currently no such video games listed for the given years, so such redirects for these years is a bit misleading.
