March 20[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 20, 2009

Turn Yourself Around → A1[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Tikiwont (talk) 18:24, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is an album by A1-Swift. Instead of redirecting to a disambig page that doesn't even list A1-Swift, this should simply be a redlink. JaGatalk 21:23, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Album title by a non-notable artist. (Really, eligible for {{album}}.) TheJazzDalek (talk) 21:32, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A-1 Swift → A1[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Tikiwont (talk) 18:24, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This redirects to a disambiguation page that doesn't even list this non-notable performer. This should be a redlink instead of a redirect. JaGatalk 21:22, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Non-notable artist who doesn't have (never had?) an article here. TheJazzDalek (talk) 21:32, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Never Wanted To Dance: Volume 1 (UK Exclusive) → Never Wanted to Dance[edit]

The result of the discussion was Kept. History needs to be maintained & it causes no harm so let's keep it simple. -- JLaTondre (talk) 13:09, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Improbable search term, no incoming links. TheJazzDalek (talk) 18:52, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom -- Fastily (talk) 05:31, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as a very unlikely search term. ♪Tempo di Valse ♪ 14:56, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - There was an article in place and the redirect has been created by nom on March 13, after what seems to be a merge[1] in which case we need to keep the edit history. --Tikiwont (talk) 18:38, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Edit history is minimal. If deemed necessary, a history merge could be performed. TheJazzDalek (talk) 22:14, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, the preferred method after merging is keeping a redirect rather than making the effort to get rid of the redirect and history merge. See also WP:MERGE.--Tikiwont (talk) 06:42, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shut Me Up: The Remixes +3 → Shut Me Up[edit]

The result of the discussion was Kept. -- JLaTondre (talk) 13:11, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Improbable search term, no incoming links. TheJazzDalek (talk) 18:39, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep Documents a page move after 2.5 years. Might have incoming weblinks. Harmless.--Tikiwont (talk) 18:56, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • The page move is documented at the target article. And any existing redirect might have incoming weblinks. TheJazzDalek (talk) 22:14, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Indeed, but it's more probably after a long time and as you can see above, the possibility of incoming links is indeed one of the reasons to be cautious about the deletion of redirects. Especially if there is no compelling reason to delete it. Searching now or the term gives me some exact hits so it isn't obscure or misleading. In general, there are millions of redirects left on purpose behind after page moves, so we just worry about the harmful ones. --Tikiwont (talk) 07:00, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This article would be a better fit for a magazine article. I just moved the page to a more appropriate title (the abovementioned target), and made a more appropriate redirect. I also notified the creator. Delete.  Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 01:25, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
