August 11[edit]

Marylin MansonMarilyn Manson (band)[edit]

The result of the debate was retarget to Marilyn Manson. Non-admin closure. Shalom Hello 14:03, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The band and person are separate articles, now named Marylin Manson and Marilyn Manson (band), but Marilyn Manson was formerly named Marilyn Manson (musician) and before that Marylin Manson (person). Marylin Manson (musician) was moved to Marilyn Manson on January 28 by Vegaswikian after discussion on WP:RM. Although the redirect Marilyn Manson could be redirected to the article Marilyn Manson, it would be better to just delete the redirect. Joe Kress 22:49, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was delete. WjBscribe 01:03, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Originally made a redirect to undo a cut-and-paste move, after some further research, I believe that the page creation was purely vandalism, and that the redirect is false, and an unlikely search term. Dancter 20:21, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete orphaned, unlikely search term. Shalom Hello 14:01, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Rouge sysopWikipedia:Rouge admin[edit]

The result of the debate was delete. WjBscribe 01:05, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Since Wikipedia:Rouge admin is meant to be humorous, and is already widely linked as a joke, no one is likely to search specifically for "Wikipedia:Rouge sysop" (especially since most people know it's "rouge admin"). Since user has also created other not-so-useful redirects to Wikipedia:Rouge admin (including a Wikipedia:Red admin - which has been tagged R3), I considered R3'ing this, but since "Admin" and "sysop" are fairly interchangeable I've RFD'd this one. Delete. Chacor 02:07, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, orphaned and unlikely to be used. --Coredesat 04:52, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep it may be an unusual name, but 'sysop' is a synonym for 'admin', so it does make sense. I dispute that it is "unlikely to be used". Melsaran 14:33, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The fact that rouge admin is an inside joke leads me to agree more with Chacor than Melsaran. Black Falcon (Talk) 00:56, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Satsuma (disambig)Satsuma[edit]

The result of the debate was delete. — Black Falcon (Talk) 00:53, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note: page "Satsuma (disambiguation)" also exists. This is a misnamed DAB page! Nominated for deletion because most (if not all) people will go to the correct DAB page name. JohnI 22:47, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, we have a well-established consensus and ample precedent that these "(disambig)" redirects, which are mostly leftovers from an earlier era before we standardized on "(disambiguation)", are unnecessary, potentially confusing, may inspire imitation, and should therefore be deleted.
