Do we really need Russian for "California Gold Rush" as a redirect to the latter? Húsönd 20:38, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. No further explanation is necessary. YechielMan 00:11, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revert to old edit - SmackBot (Rich) redirected this today. There's a non-English article in the edit history. Revert to the last edit by Proofreader J-Man and follow the normal translation process. It's already listed at WP:PNT. --- RockMFR 03:49, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • If this doesn't exist on the Russian wiki, it should be transwiki'd. --- RockMFR 18:10, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A cross-namespace redirect with a name that nobody will actually use. Gavia immer 17:21, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as self-referential, unused and rather odd – Qxz 20:05, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Unneeded cnr, trivial edit history, no incoming. --- RockMFR 03:43, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bogus names for chemical elements[edit]

The result of the debate was Deleted. -- JLaTondre 03:43, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A set of proposed names for as yet unnamed chemical elements, in no way official. Unsourced, original research, apparently made up in school one day by User:Chris Dybala/User:Cosmium/User:75.57.108.163. Femto 20:29, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Based on previous discussions on Talk pages, the redirects are from names that, as far as we can tell in many/most cases, these are "proposed" only in the sense that a wikipedian made them up and added them to wikipedia. That seems pretty far from something that is actually "proposed" enough that a WP user would be looking for it by name. DMacks 06:39, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Unless it is shown that a notable organization has proposed these names, they serve no purpose except to satisfy vanity. --Ed (Edgar181) 12:50, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Expanded nom?. User:Cosmium just created 60 more element redirects from non-standard names. Not sure if it's a WP:POINT related to the present RfD nom or just more of his same...whatever-he's-doing. DMacks 01:12, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all. If any were actually proposed by someone other than the above sock puppets users, they might be kept. But the odds are against it. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 14:25, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
