Vince McFadden and other people not mentioned at the same target

[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 delete. While there was a comment about a possible merge that was never done, there didn't appear to be any content (outside of redirect related content) at any of the proposed articles and there was otherwise a clear delete consensus. Barkeep49 (talk) 21:31, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No mention at the target. I propose deletion. Veverve (talk) 21:50, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • The first four of these were originally each one-sentence articles (unsourced) and when redirected they were mentioned, see [1] (since the section is "Current leadership" presumably they were removed once they were no-longer current). The Schoenheit redirect was created much later, and at the time it was created there was mention in the given section [2] but this whole section was removed around two years later in this edit [3]. Delete all I think. Especially the Schoenheit one, but any could be recreated if mention were added back and is justified. A7V2 (talk) 22:43, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I've not been following developments with this church but WP:RS say that there was a sex scandal that led to the break up of the church" Nelson's Illustrated Guide to Religion James A. Beverley · 2009 "... the controversial sect founded by Victor P. Wierwille. In October 1986 prominent Way researcher John Schoenheit was fired for writing a paper on “Adultery and Fornication” in which he defended traditional Christian teaching." Encyclopedia of Cults and New Religions John Ankerberg, ‎John Weldon · 1999 "They all agree that moral standards in the Way are consistent with Wierwille's theology . ... The paper was branded as “ slipshod research ” and " handling the Word deceitfully , " and Schoenheit was fired , along with others for their .." etc. Rather than worrying about the redirects, which don't seem of much importance, someone with some expertise in church articles should review what was deleted and why.

No longer upcoming. Steel1943 (talk) 14:54, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is a common (albeit incorrect) interpretation that WP:NFF confers an instant notability freebie on all upcoming films the moment it's possible to source that principal photography has commenced on the production. That's not what NFF is actually saying, but editors have long interpreted it that way nonetheless to the point that there are literally hundreds or even thousands of articles about as yet unreleased films. You're correct that most upcoming films shouldn't have articles — NFF is for highly anticipated meganotables that get a ton of production coverage, like Marvel or Star Wars films, not just for every single film that enters the production pipeline at all — but as things currently stand, far too many upcoming films do have articles nonetheless, and some tightening up of the rules may be needed.

The result of the discussion was delete. Although sending to AfD was considered an option, it was determined that nothing in the page history is usable. Jay 💬 14:58, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading redirect. There are no fortune tellers from Nigeria mentioned at the target. This redirect was previously a stub which was BLARred in 2019. CycloneYoris talk! 07:22, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Best to vacate the title and let the search engine handle it.
Looking at the history, it seems to have been made to push a Christian POV against the practice. The earliest revision justifies distinguishing Nigerian fortune tellers from Western ones by noting that the former sell their services, but there are many who sell their services in the West (they even sell remote same-day readings and rituals on Etsy) so this distinction is unwarranted. There are certainly culturally-specific facets to the topic but I as I understand it these aspects extend to West Africa in general and aren't just a Nigerian phenomenon (eg. see Modern witch-hunts § Africa regarding "witch doctors", a term used by the blanked article as a synonym). – Scyrme (talk) 15:20, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: A mention of Nigeria has been added to the target.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jay 💬 15:39, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The target also mentions Saudi Arabia, New Zealand, and New York in a similar context. Doesn't mean Saudi fortune tellers, New Zealander fortune tellers, and New Yorker fortune tellers warrant redirects; this is no different. If the suggested target were a List of Nigerian fortune tellers, then the redirect would be warranted, but it's a broad topic article, and one that largely doesn't focus on national matters outside a handful of examples regarding legality where the mention of Nigeria is brief. – Scyrme (talk) 16:59, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Legoktm (talk) 03:51, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all as confusing; they seem to only exist because of the title of a book briefly mentioned at the target. An anonymous username, not my real name 04:02, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They seem ok to me, non-neutral synonyms, see wikt:street Arab Drapetomanic (talk) 04:20, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep per Drapetomanic. My only objection would be that potentially it's confusing not having any mention (apart from the book title), but that isn't uncommon in redirects from non-neutral synonyms. A7V2 (talk) 04:50, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was restore and send to AfD. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 00:48, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend delete. Can be confused for another cricketer of the same name & origin, born 1994, and if deleted can result in deletion/no need for this disambiguation page for only these 2 individuals. Per the redirect talk page (albeit w/ unsigned messages), he played 1 match for the target team but had no source as a WP:BLP &/or WP:NCRIC article previously; it seems rather unlikely anyone is trying to find Matara team this way. KatPro (mrow?) 21:10, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • In general terms, retain the redirect. Redirection in cases such as this is a reasonable WP:ATD. There were two sources - one an external link - on the article page before it was, quite correctly in my view, redirected; these clearly verify the person's existence and BLP isn't relevant here; they also verify that they played in 1 first-class and five List A matches - all at the "highest domestic level". It's entirely possible that there are non-English speaking sources that will cover the person - there are certainly cases where this has been true. In these sorts of cases we would generally prefer a redirect to a "List of... cricketers" article, but in this case one doesn't exist yet. Someone might get around to producing one - it's been known (there aren't a huge number of matches to deal with so this is certainly easier). Until then the redirect we have seems reasonable.
It might be reasonable, given that he's played internationally, to make Imal Liyanage (cricketer, born 1994) the primary target and use a hatnote for the other chap. I would imagine most people searching for the name will be looking for the bloke born in 1994 certainly, but I don't see why we'd delete it just now. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:43, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. If nothing else, having never done this sort of thing before, I promise my newbie editor brain grew 3 wrinkles this day. Thanks! KatPro (mrow?) 22:11, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Restore article and send to AfD if desired. This is clearly an unsuitable redirect target as there is no mention of this person there and I'd say mention is unlikely to be justified (the only players mentioned are ones who played for the national team). Should have been PRODed or sent to AfD if the article failed GNG. A7V2 (talk) 23:50, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment A preferred redirect target here would obviously be List of Matara Sports Club cricketers, but that would obviously need to be created. Looks like the article was BOLDly redirected in the last major purge of South Asian cricket articles before the WP:NSPORTS guidelines were updated. I'd always prefer redirects to be kept in situations like this, but it would be much easier with list articles. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 20:23, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The current target, List of governors of Jammu and Kashmir, omits List of lieutenant governors of Jammu and Kashmir. While a disambiguation page could exist here, I don't see the point. Per WP:XY, I might propose deletion instead. ~ Eejit43 (talk) 13:57, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
