The result of the discussion was delete. signed, Rosguill talk 17:20, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible search term. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 23:17, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete both. I can see where these redirects are coming from, but we don't need these cluttering up search results. Mdewman6 (talk) 23:44, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both of these implausible search terms. How many people have complained about what happens when one searches for C programming language language? --Guy Macon (talk) 01:11, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both "Python Programming Language" and "Java Programming Language" redirects already serve their purpose --Lenticel (talk) 03:56, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Session ID. (non-admin closure) RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 01:38, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Session ID seems like a better target to me. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 22:13, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Session ID, the main article, per nom. I don't think this needs an RfD. J947messageedits 22:16, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget and, per J947, no objection if nom were to withdraw and do this BOLDly. -- Tamzin (she/they) | o toki tawa mi. 22:26, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 07:16, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect created from an implausible typo. NoonIcarus (talk) 19:54, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep; this isn't a typo and it isn't implausible, it just has a Spanish disambiguator – which is perfectly reasonable for a Spanish state per RLOTE. J947messageedits 22:14, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Could you explain what the typo is? Like J947 says this appears to just be a Spanish disambiguator, but since nom is a native Spanish speaker and I don't speak the language there's probably something I've missed? 86.23.109.101 (talk) 22:19, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • It seems like non-native English speakers who are first-time RfD nominators often misconstrue alternative forms as typos. It happens at a fairly high frequency, which is rather odd. J947messageedits 22:31, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • Speaking only to the general phenomenon, not this case: Many other wikis are stricter than we are on foreign alternative forms. For instance, fr:California is a dab page, while en:Corse is a redirect to Corsica with a dab hatnote. he:Washington, D.C. is a redlink (as are all punctuation variants), while en:ירושלים has existed since 2009. And so on. So, again, just in the general case, it makes sense to me that an editor who's used to a wiki where English-language redirects are not allowed might assume that we have a similar policy regarding their own language. -- Tamzin (she/they) | o toki tawa mi. 22:51, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • The assupmtions are essentially correct. If the redirect falls under WP:RLOTE, I withdraw the nomination. --NoonIcarus (talk) 10:58, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I don't see how there could be any spelling/grammar issue here, given that es:Vargas (estado) redirects to the Spanish equivalent of this title. estado is part of the official name, and so seems reasonable to use as non-English disambiguation (unlike, say, disambiguation by a purely descriptive term like futbolista). -- Tamzin (they/she) | o toki tawa mi. 22:21, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Genetic material[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Nucleic acid. signed, Rosguill talk 21:34, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In 2009 the article at this location was redirected to Gene due to being unsourced. a few days later this was changed to Genome, which stood until last October, when an IP retargeted it to DNA. The current target isn't correct because genetic material includes both DNA and RNA, but I'm not sure that Genome is a particularly good target either. Current incoming links seem to be using it to refer to a mix of contexts where it could refer to DNA and RNA 86.23.109.101 (talk) 16:30, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Nucleic acid which comprises genetic material. Mdewman6 (talk) 23:47, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hmm, redirecting genetic material to Genome, which defines the topic as "a genome is all genetic material of an organism", gives an ugly circularity... Nucleic acid as redirect target I guess fixes that, although that article is a bit low on the genome/information-storage angle. DNA is too narrow and the old version of the article presented speculative things as fact and had to be wiped unfortunately. Let's redirect to Nucleic acid until someone write a more balanced article on the subject of genetic material. Narayanese (talk) 07:50, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Another possibility to consider is targeting Genetics#Molecular_basis_for_inheritance where genetic material is actually discussed somewhat, but the Genetics article actually links to genetic material and uses the term throughout the article, so I think more of an {{R from alternative name}} target is more appropriate here. Mdewman6 (talk) 19:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --19:52, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the target. Is mentioned at Surat Metro, but given how brief the coverage is there, I think that would justify WP:R#DELETE #10 deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 16:09, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

While the introduction of the theory of evolution did involve some controversy regarding suggesting humans were related to monkeys I don't think this is a plausible way of searching for evolution. In my opinion people searching for this are far more likely to be looking for the Infinite monkey theorem or the Hundredth monkey effect. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 15:59, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Dabify. Three moderately plausible things someone could be looking for, with no one clearly more likely than the other (although I agree that the current target is probably the least likely of the three). -- Tamzin (she/they) | o toki tawa mi. 22:38, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. While the term is ambiguous, none of the identified items are actually referred to by this name. Disambiguation wouldn't be appropriate. The Monkey Theory is the title of a book by Sfurti Sahare, but her article doesn't include any meaningful information about the book. This is closest to two keywords stitched together, which means that allowing search results to appear would be our best option. - Eureka Lott 00:59, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete; I agree with Eureka Lott's assessment. Adumbrativus (talk) 00:48, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Orthodox. signed, Rosguill talk 21:34, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orthodox Christian redirects to Orthodoxy#Christianity. However, most of the time it is used as a hyperlink on WP to refer to members of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Members of both the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Oriental Orthodox Churches, which are two different churches, are called "Orthodox Christians". Therefore, I think Orthodox Christian should link to the disambiguation page Orthodox. What do you think? Veverve (talk) 09:11, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This guy may have been notorious for trying to teach ballet to trolls, but he doesn't seem to have had a mention on Wikipedia for years since July 2007, when his section was removed from Magical portrait (Harry Potter), and just under five months later that was redirected to the current target. I'm not sure if we still need this redirect lying around here, delete unless a justification can be provided. Regards, SONIC678 03:29, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per IP. Very trivial mention, and most of the Scholar sources are just quotes from the book or the character's name in a list of many. --BDD (talk) 19:52, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. signed, Rosguill talk 21:32, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Currently redirects to the Physicians in Canada page. Section on physician assistants was removed as completely irrelevant to the article. Any other area where this could be redirected? Even the general Physician assistant page does not mention this association for its section on Canada. Considering deletion as does not seem a notable subject. Thoughts? Spyder212 (talk) 02:14, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Retarget to Physician assistant#Canada, which seems to have the most relevant content but no coverage of this association. This redirect has some really weird page history, I can't understand why a draft rejected as an advert was moved into mainspace with the intention of turning it into a redirect. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 03:27, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi IP, good point. As the creator of the redirect I did not consider the decline reason of the draft but in hindsight clearly should have and will do so in the future. S0091 (talk) 22:26, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Given Spyder212 removed the Physician's Assistant section from the targeted article containing some information about the association because it was irrelevant to subject of the article, there is no other sensible place to redirect (weak at best) and no valuable history, I believe it should be deleted.

  • Note if page is not deleted: The text of the declined draft was largely a copyvio of the two cited sources, and should probably be revdelled. At that point, does it make more sense to just delete the old history entirely and leave the redirection as the first revision? -- Tamzin (she/they) | o toki tawa mi. 11:03, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy deleted per G5 (KillerGho$t). -- Tavix (talk) 23:37, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all; they are misleading and useless. They make the seasons appear like fully-fleshed out articles when you see their blue links on {{NCAA Division I men's basketball season navbox}}, but they turn out to be redirects to a tangentially-related article at best. Delete these so that readers and editors alike can see these pages still have yet to be created. SportsGuy789 (talk) 03:48, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I took the liberty of tagging those redirects, since they weren't tagged when they were listed. Regards, SONIC678 04:26, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Fixed nomination that was broken. Thanks to Sonic678 for helping out with the tagging! CycloneYoris talk! 04:52, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks both. I'm not good at figuring out RfDs, I appreciate the helping hands. SportsGuy789 (talk) 16:01, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – note, the original creator of these redirects has been permanently blocked for sockpuppetry. SportsGuy789 (talk) 16:02, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @SportsGuy789: just an fyi, you might want to use User:Anomie/linkclassifier. "Redirects with possibilities" are not against policy, but I would go with a weak delete to encourage article creation. Elli (talk | contribs) 11:13, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
