Doctor Roo[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. signed, Rosguill talk 04:59, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not a plausible misnomer. Google search results bring up nothing about Dr. Who, just stuff about a non-notable startup, a non-notable video game character and a non-notable brewery. Suggest deleting. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 22:53, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Not remotely plausible. P-K3 (talk) 23:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

AfD created this redirect "to enable further discussion about [a merge with the target]." So far as I can tell, such discussion has not occurred over the course of the past year or so, and as the AfD closer acknowledged, "If no consensus appears to merge content from history the redirect may in time be deleted." I think a year qualifies as "in time." So, for actual rationale, this is a hyper-specific and implausible search term, which is not discussed at its target. I previously objected to deleting this redirect on the basis that the AfD had just closed, but it's now been a year and that objection no longer applies. NYKevin 22:32, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Better late than never... -- Tavix (talk) 23:10, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, the previous RfD was ridiculous. There have now been 8,830 visitors of this redirect over the last year who have been directed to a completely unrelated article. What a waste of their time. —Xezbeth (talk) 09:20, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete someone typing this term is obviously not looking for general info on real life landing parties. I will reconsider if a more relevant target is proposed.--69.157.254.64 (talk) 05:18, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target, and a quick search indicates no obvious association with them either. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 20:27, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom; unnecessary search term. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 22:42, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The only context I've encountered this in is onomatopoeia for the sound of a firiing gun or energy weapon (do a Google image search for pew pew pew meme to see examples) but we don't have any encyclopaedic content relative to that I can find, nor would I expect to find any. We also don't have any content at the directly analogous Bang bang bang, nothing relevant at Bang bang (disambiguation) and only a single line at Bang (disambiguation)#Other uses. Now as "bang" is a dated term for an exclamation mark, "!!!" could not implausibly be pronounced "bang bang bang" and I guess that's the origin of this redirect, but it's all far too tenuous to support a redirect.

  • Delete - While the term exists, we don't need redirects for every lame joke someone posted on a forum in 2006. The pageview stats are highly unimpressive, so it won't be missed. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 22:20, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2020_March_21#Wikkkipedia, not mentioned in target article as an example. For what it's worth, the creator has been indeffed. Hog Farm (talk) 19:57, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Pageview stats are rather underwhelming. Seems like an implausible search query to me, as it can't even be typed on an American keyboard. Also, Ballmer is not especially British. Finally, if the creator made this redirect in violation of an existing block or ban (by sockpuppetry etc.), then it can be G5'd, but from the wording of the nomination, I assume that is not the case. --NYKevin 22:39, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It was probably mentioned in the target at some point, but has since been removed for lacking evidence of usage or a source discussing it, as many entries in Satiric misspelling#Currency signs have been. userdude 00:29, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 01:43, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No mention at the target, the search term seems a little too vague to be useful. I would suggest deletion unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:42, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete It's worth noting that most Google search results for "custom-made device" are related to medical devices [1]; this term seems to have a specific meaning in that context. However, it's not mentioned at the target, and I would think that most people searching for this phrase aren't aware of that specific meaning, so IMO it's too vague and should be deleted. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 22:40, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Whatever it is, it doesn't sound appetizing. -- Tavix (talk) 01:42, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Does not appear to be an alternative name for the target in English--searching for "mud-pepper" online just returned results about vintage pepper shakers on Etsy. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:27, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was no consensus. signed, Rosguill talk 20:46, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Left over from a 2014 move to its correctly spelled cousin Italpinas Euroasian Design and Eco-Development Corporation (which is worth keeping as an {{R from former name}}), I'm not sure how useful this redirect is now...also it seems to have gotten much less pageviews than the aforementioned former name redirect since July 2015. Regards, SONIC678 15:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom as an error. In the 6 years since it was created, I'm sure that the links have been cleaned up. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 16:25, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep; what is to be gained by deleting this redirect? — J947 [cont] 19:50, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @J947: Now please tell me, what is to be gained by keeping this redirect? --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 21:48, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @Prahlad balaji: by keeping this redirect, a small number of readers are unambiguously helped. By deleting this redirect, those readers are annoyed. The best thing for the readers is to keep this redirect. — J947 [cont] 22:25, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @J947: The only pages that link to the redirect are a few user talkpages and RfD. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 22:27, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Readers search this up, they aren't linked to it. — J947 [cont] 23:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Readers only click on it because it's there! Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 12:18, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    So? That just means there's more space in the search bar for the reader to click where they want to go. How does that justify this redirect's deletion? — J947 [cont] 20:36, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong meh - It could be {{Rcat shell|{{R from typo}}{{R from former name}}}}, but I find it hard to care much about the outcome here, because none of the arguments on either side of WP:RHARMFUL seem relevant here, and it has low views. --NYKevin 22:50, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, fair enough – many of these sort of redirects have been nominated for very little to no reason. — J947 [cont] 23:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Xkcd#Inspired activities. This change is simply a refinement to a relevant section of the former target. signed, Rosguill talk 20:45, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Only content about "correct horse battery staple" on Wikipedia is the name of a reference at the Random password generator article. Likely a one-time joke from xkcd. Hog Farm (talk) 15:17, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. It's a rather famous xkcd webcomic, but we have no information on it; so there is no good target. I would change my !vote to keep if someone dug through the very many bloggy references discussing whether it is or is not a strong password which turn up in a search, and added relevant info to xkcd with an RS or two. Narky Blert (talk) 19:34, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Academic and IT articles have referenced the phrase which is well-known in computer science and cryptography. Here are some examples:
    • Carnegie Mellon University: [2]
    • Information Sciences Institute: [3]
    • New York Post: [4]
    • University of Connecticut: [5]

  • Refine and tag {{R with possibilities}}. You could (perhaps) write a whole article about password complexity and the relative merits of passphrases vs. other means of adding entropy, but a self-published webcomic is obviously not a reliable source for doing so. In the meantime, this target is Good Enough. --NYKevin 22:53, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Refine and tag, per NYKevin. Certainly should not be deleted (per Shawnc and my own experience of having seen the term before knowing its association with xkcd). userdude 00:40, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to password strength#Password creation, because that is what it's about. Bwrs (talk) 18:57, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Prestige class[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 disambiguate. -- Tavix (talk) 21:55, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not specific to D&D, as can be seen from the incoming links. Note that the previous target has just been deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of prestige classes. Prestige class is linked from e.g. Wizardry, Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Wizards of the Coast), and A Game of Thrones (role-playing game), which are all sent to a completely unrelated page through this link. This is a generic term and shouldn't link to one specific use of it only. Fram (talk) 07:19, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambiguate per BOZ at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 May 11#List of prestige classes. --Pandakekok9 (talk) 09:52, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revert move and restore redirect. The Star Wars / GoT uses are d20 System games based off of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition. They probably shouldn't link to it at all, but if they do, it's still covering the same fundamental topic. The Wizardry claim that it was doing something similar to prestige classes is wholly unreferenced and original research, and there's no earthly way prestige-classes in Wizardry would ever be appropriate for an article. It's just some editor who thought Wizardy's system was close to 3rd edition D&D, which makes the original link to the D&D meaning accurate anyway - it's claiming that Wizardry was doing something like what D&D prestige classes did. SnowFire (talk) 01:29, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate per Pandakekok9. Drafted below the redirect. The Dungeons & Dragons concept doesn't appear to be WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT either by usage in reliable sources (e.g. Google News hits, which are mostly about airlines & trains whose business/first class is called "prestige class") or long-term significance. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 11:13, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • None of the offered suggestions are relevant disambig page mentions. We don't have first class or First class travel contain a list of every company that offers something called "First class"; we don't need a mention that Korean Air offers something similar called "prestige class" either. Same with a random term used by a short-lived event in Renault Sport Trophy, either. The D&D meaning (before it was moved) is the proper link here that can actually have a referenced section talking about the concept. SnowFire (talk) 17:32, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

deletion, Westdeutsche Beobachter was a Nazi Newspaper not a single Person CommanderWaterford (talk) 11:31, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, the redirect is misspelled, the name of the newspaper was WestdeutscheR Beobachter. Robert Ley was the editor of the newspaper, but I don't think that is enough to redirect the correct title to him. ~ GB fan 12:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I searched it up on Google, found the webpage, but it gave error 1009 (page banned from view in my area). I don't know who is allowed to see it; and as far as the term "Betviton" goes, that website is the only thing I could find that even remotely pertains to a Sportradar-like business, and even then, I only knew that from the preview. If we can't find reliable sources for "Betviton", there's no point in maintaining this redirect.

  • Agree that "Mark" should be capitalized, but if we think we should keep Oh hi, Mark, I think it would make sense to also have Oh hi Mark, as people searching for this will likely leave out the comma. —Will(B) 23:10, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target. Searching online suggests that this is the name of a Finnish person, but does not establish why it should point at our article for Finns. Delete unless a justification or alternative can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 21:34, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete; this article has lots of useful redirects (tropical moist forests, subtropical moist forests, etc.), from alternative phrasings or subsets of forests that belong in the larger set, but this redirect isn't useful since it's quite wordy, and including both 'equatorial' and 'tropical' adds redundancy without clarify anything. It also has no links. Tom Radulovich (talk) 06:33, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:COSTLY; no basis to think that enclosing these names/terms/initialisms within quotation marks provides any value to users or searchers, especially in the final case since it does not target PBJ.

  • Keep the OP didn't make any policy-based reason for deleting this redirect and I can find lots of instances where "Arab Palestine"[7] is used and even the whole phrase [8]. Please read WP:RFD#DELETE.-SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 18:18, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The policy-based reason is that these redirects were created as disruptive edits in the midst of a heated deletion discussion on a hot topic. I thought that was clear enough in my rationale, many apologies if it was not. I still do not see a reason why keeping them would be useful, as there is little ambiguity or possible confusion about which instance of Palestine the current article is about, and they do not look like phrases that would often be used in search. As a side note, the link given talks about Zionist racism in Arab Palestine, which is quite the opposite of what is discussed in the target article, which is mostly focussed on purported racism by Arab Palestinians towards Israelis.

  • Delete XFDCloser is a script, not a username. I don't see where it is implied that "XFDCloser" is a username (this redirect has no links other than those pertaining to this RfD).

Not mentioned at the target, and appears to be a name actually in use for at least one other beach [9]. Delete unless evidence of usage can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:03, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - quick google search shows a real beach named that, as well as other beaches with circular rocks given this nickname. Ultimately don't see evidence that this is an official or common nickname for the Moeraki Boulders, or at least not that it is the primary reference of the term. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 19:14, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are no Wikipedia articles that mention "Cannonball Beach". Nurg (talk) 22:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Patrick's Point State Park is the location of the beach in California, but it is not mentioned there currently. We still do not have evidence that Moeraki Boulders is known as "Cannonball Beach". Cannonball concretion is the name for the phenomenon, and that section gives other locations where this occurs. Some are beaches, some are not. We can only get to a disambiguation if we can source multiple beaches with the name (not just beaches that happen to have cannonball concretions) and include the name in the article. We are not yet there. -- Tavix (talk) 16:40, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
