Presumably a quote from the film, but there's no mention or discussion of it in the article. (Some other quotes get a passing reference, but not this one.) Lord Belbury (talk) 14:45, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is a quote from the film, when Wallace tells Jules that the Wolf is coming to clean house. But it's a minor quote, and hardly worthy of even a redirect. There is no improvement to the project by including this. Chaheel Riens (talk) 14:54, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unremarkable phrase, not mentioned in target article. Lord Belbury (talk) 14:37, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Its a notable phrase, very commonly associated with Star Wars and deliberately inserted into as many of the movies as possible and played with. However whether it's notable or not isn't the issue here. Is someone really going to come looking for the Star Wars article by entering that phrase? No I don't think so. Therefore it's not particularly useful. It does not harm, but it also does no use. Canterbury Tail talk 14:41, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ranked choice voting

[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 no consensus. I would suggest that in the future, RfD is not the best venue for this, because it's fundamentally a content dispute. The salient question is "Is 'ranked-choice voting' synonymous with 'instant-runoff voting'?", not "Is this redirect appropriate?". Answer the former question and the redirects can be dealt with accordingly, without a subsequent discussion.
Edit: I hope this won't feel like a supervote, but I'll be retargeting the first to Instant-runoff voting, where it pointed until recently, since I hope we'd all agree these should point to the same place. This should be considered the status quo for further discussion. --BDD (talk) 16:56, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The similar and properly punctuated ranked-choice voting targets instant-runoff voting. There is some debate about whether ranked-choice voting is a synonym for instant-runoff voting or if it also includes some slight variations described at the broader ranked voting article. This redirect has a good amount of history about its best target, including some discussion on its talk page, but to my knowledge has never been to rfd. I believe there is consensus for ranked-choice voting to target instant-runoff voting, and this redirect should as well. Mdewman6 (talk) 01:55, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Is the tabloid press a reputable source? But, Regardless, I don't think that anyone comes to Wikipedia and searches "Her Royal Hotness" in the place of Pippa Middleton, so it's not an incredibly useful tool.--Bettydaisies (talk) 03:03, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    It doesn't really matter in this case whether tabloids are reliable sources, it's whether it's a plausible search term. I was just pointing out that it may be.-- P-K3 (talk) 21:16, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per PK3, it is an epithet created by the tabloid press, and thus a viable search term. Tag as {{R from nickname}} and add documentation (like the tabloids, or social media about that) about the source of the nickname -- 67.70.26.89 (talk) 18:58, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as not mentioned at the target (nor at the page of any other person who's been called by this nickname) and not worth mentioning per WP:PROPORTION. 61.239.39.90 (talk) 03:24, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I'm a yank, don't have a dog in this fight. I could care less about the royals on either side of the pond. This is a usage in the press, already sourced. Wikipedia's job is to inform the public. We are the number one source. If someone comes here for information, even on a casual search for the phrase "Her Royal Hotness" then we should inform and direct them to correct place and (potentially, if they know enough about how wikipedia sourcing works) the sources that use the phrase. That is our job. Not to inform because it is trivial or casual, in your opinion, makes wikipedia derelict in their duty. Trackinfo (talk) 05:00, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Protected page

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 no consensus / retarget to Wiki#Trust_and_security. There is broad dissatisfaction with the current target, with participants split between deleting it, and retargeting it - with this being the most numerically popular target. There are valid issues with this target too, but in the lack of a clear consensus this is at least broadly considered an upgrade on the previous situation. ~ mazca talk 13:00, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose retarget to Wiki#Trust and security. Reason: protected pages are not limited to Wikipedia; they are also present on other wikis. But there are other possible targets, like protection on Word docs, so I don't know. Aasim (talk) 06:19, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Dissambiguate To Wiki, the selfref, protection dab; and protected memory (protected memory pages), and legally protected pages (which IIRC exist, where laws are written to protect such specific pages) [if we can find an article covering it].-- 67.70.26.89 (talk) 19:02, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Right to keep and bear arms. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 04:05, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is confusing because it's so close to Right to bear arms, which is what readers are much more likely to be looking for. I created Right to Bear Arms (Russian organization), which is a clearer redirect the extremely obscure organization associated with Maria Butina. R2 (bleep) 00:33, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's a well known puppet organisation. Plus you have WP:DIFFCAPS. –MJLTalk 07:00, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
