August 4[edit]
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on August 4, 2008
James r kirk → James T. Kirk[edit]
Captain Kirk is never referred to as James R. Kirk in the Star Trek universe, as far as I can tell. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 00:08, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks to Google I've found out what this is referring to. Apparently in the first episode they spell out Kirk's name on a tombstone, and it does say R, but this could just be a simple mistake. Deletion would be fine with me, but I should point out that we actually have an article for an unrelated James R. Kirk. Maybe retarget? -- Ned Scott 08:05, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Worst movie of all time → Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull[edit]
Blatant violation of WP:NPOV. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 23:29, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NPOV. 206.116.63.240 (talk) 23:36, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
The worst movie of all time → Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull[edit]
Same issue as above. Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 23:33, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NPOV. And if more of these appear, a block would be appropriate. 206.116.63.240 (talk) 23:36, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
Lisa Druck → Story of My Life (novel)[edit]
Lisa Druck is a living person, the redirect is to a work of fiction, a novel that the author states was inspired by Lisa Druck. A novel inspired by someone is the author's personal spin on a person, and a fictional treatment. The novel is about a coke-addled booze guzzling floozy. Novels do not have the same guidelines as Wikipedia's biographies of living persons; this redirect violates the "Do No Harm" policy on living people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Macduff (talk • contribs) 14:56, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
*Delete for BLP reasons. We should consider removing the names from the article as well. Terraxos (talk) 02:49, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. The redirect should be edited to point to Rielle Hunter, not the fictional work. The Rielle Hunter article would have to be written. Rielle Hunter, née Lisa Druck, is a woman who has apparently gained some level of notoriety on the coattails of a political scandal. Binksternet (talk) 03:47, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
- Redirect to either Rielle Hunter or John Edwards extramarital affair. Kelly hi! 22:04, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. The redirect now points to Rielle Hunter. AdamKesher (talk) 23:07, 8 August 2008)
- Opinion changed to Keep. Now that there is consensus to have an article on Rielle Hunter, I don't see what additional harm is done by having this name redirect there. Terraxos (talk) 03:01, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
