- Delete. Page was automatically created by me when I moved it from that quite implausible name —likely an artifact of the article's creator believing that he needed to place boldface wikimarkup in the title.--Fuhghettaboutit 19:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
American identity → Who Are We? The Challenges to America's National Identity[edit]
The nominated redirect was Target changed to Culture of the United States and kept. -- JLaTondre 10:43, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
This is only part of the books title, and it implies to anyone searching for "American identity" that this is an authoritative opinion. AdamBiswanger1 18:44, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Move source to American Identity, leaving no re-redirect?— Arthur Rubin | (talk) 18:51, 21 July 2006 (UTC)- I don't understand AdamBiswanger1 22:27, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, book is not representative of the concept as a whole. Redirect to American culture or similer. -Mask
23:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC) - Change target to Culture of the United States. --Zoz (t) 14:23, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
- My suggestion now is to move this redirect to America's Identity, as a plausible shortening of the title, and delete the resulting redirect. I can't think of a plausible target for American identity as a redirect. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 17:23, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
Decani → Dečani[edit]
The nominated redirect was turned into something other than a redirect, no action to be taken here, have a nice day. — Jul. 22, '06 [14:18] <freak|talk>
Article on Decani cannot be seen as the redirect goes to Dečani —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 157.203.43.103 (talk • contribs) .
- I've fixed your nomination for you. The RFD tag goes on the redirect and not the target article. Also, you listed the redirect as the target above. I'm not positive about what your nomination is actually saying. If you believe an article should be at Decani, then you can simply make one. However, it would probably be best to use a disambiguation page as the titles are too similiar. -- JLaTondre 14:42, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- It appears to be a bit more complicated than that. Decani was originally created as a redirect over a year ago. Ealier this monthsomeone changed it to reflect the musical usage (opposite to cantoris) and it was then changed back to the redirect. Probably best to convert Decani to a disambiguation page, pointing to Dečani and new article Decani (music), but this has the disadvantage that the naming convention for Cantoris and Decani would not be the same. Or alternatively put the music article at Decani with the appropriate "for the town in Kosovo, see Dečani" boilerplate text at the top. Difficult to say which "most" users of English wikipedia would expect to see. I'm much more familiar with musical usage, but would accept that in the greater scheme of things it's a fairly niche usage. David Underdown 14:53, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- The article should have priority over the redirect; that's why we have dab headers. If somebody wants to argue that the city should be at Decani for some reason, then we can discuss where the musical article should be moved. I'm taking out the redirect; deleting this would lose the history of the musical article. Septentrionalis 16:07, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
