April 9[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 9, 2022.

USA 215[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 retarget to USA-215. Jay (talk) 09:04, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion because this redirect is unused (zero pages link to it, zero recent visitors) and it's an odd-ball out of a list of hundreds of other potential redirects that follow the format "USA ###" where ### are numbers, so as part of a cleanup of that article, I'd like to have that deleted. Keavon (talk) 23:56, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The satellite has an article: USA-215. I haven't seen references without the hyphen so I think the redirect can be deleted. If it stays then it should obviously be retargeted. --mfb (talk) 14:46, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
By the way: We also have USA 187, USA 193, USA 202, USA 205, USA 212, USA 280, USA 315, USA 427, USA 1549, USA 1994, USA 1999, USA 2003, USA 2016, USA 2026, USA 2028, USA 3000. Puzzle for the reader: Identify what are satellites, flight numbers, sports events and airlines. I think we can start deletion discussions for all satellites at least. --mfb (talk) 15:19, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Withdrawn by nominator. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 22:00, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The target article, Junipero Serra Boulevard, contains only a few mentions of this street. I.hate.spam.mail.here (talk | contributions) 21:09, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So? It is mentioned, and the redirect hurts nobody. --NE2 21:13, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh. Sorry about that. I.hate.spam.mail.here (talk | contributions) 22:19, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. As an unopposed deletion nomination. Jay (talk) 18:50, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target, briefly mentioned at a dozen or so other pages, which makes me think that deletion to allow for internal search results is most appropriate. signed, Rosguill talk 18:07, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was no consensus. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 00:28, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Don't see how this redirect is helpful/plausible. Someone is going to type either Misnomer or Misnomers to arrive at the article, not parentheses. Steel1943 (talk) 18:09, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as useful in links. Looks like only 1 mainspace link, but clearly someone finds it useful, and it is correctly targeted. Mdewman6 (talk) 23:23, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mdewman6: I have gone and fixed that typo. Now, nothing points there. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:49, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As unlikely redirect. Monomers is sufficient for the plural form. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:46, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep WP:RCHEAP per Mdewman6 -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 22:56, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not a reasonable link target or search target. Like Steel said, someone is either going to type "monomer" or "monomers".--Srleffler (talk) 23:45, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Parenthetical plurals are quite common, used when a statement can refer to one or more of the noun in question, and here someone has created a redirect instead of using a piped link. The incoming link was not "a typo", in fact Zxcvbnm simply changed it to a piped link with the same displayed text. Redirects are not only search terms and I am not sure what is meant by "unlikely redirect". It is harmless, unambiguous, and potentially useful, and we do not delete redirects meeting those criteria.

Not described at target; however, wikt:Urectum exists on Wiktionary. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk | contribs | guestbook) 08:36, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Extremely obscure shortcut, even at the time it was discussed back in 2006 it was already a long-deprecated abbreviation for a long-deprecated term. WhatLinksHere shows it's entirely unused, and having random 3 letter redirects is an active hindrance to anyone searching for the correct projectspace page.

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 08:11, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Propose that this should be retargeted to Estrous cycle#Four phases, where the more common spelling Estrum currently targets. Currently, this is a redirect for a misspelling of the target, but it doesn't seem very phonetically close such that it would be a valuable search term. Correct, alternative spellings should take precedence over misspellings. Mdewman6 (talk) 00:55, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambiguate. Oe is sometimes used for ö in English: there are sources (from the 19th century) that use this spelling [1] [2]. However, there's also a place with the name of "Oestrum" in a different part of Germany: de:Oestrum. The phase in the estrous cycle could be a primary topic, but retargeting to Estrous_cycle#Estrus would entail placing a hatnote there, and I'm really not keen on having a major article getting interrupted in this way because of a redirect that only gets one view every couple of days. A disambiguation page at the base title will serve our readers best. – Uanfala (talk) 16:59, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate. Writing "oe" for "ö" is the correct transliteration to the English alphabet. That replacement is done even in German when the umlaut can't be used. --mfb (talk) 14:58, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have attempted a disambig draft at the redirect. Jay (talk) 15:12, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
