March 6[edit]

Whatsnew, Dogg, Innit, LazyassSlang[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete all and retarget Dogg to dog per WP:SNOW. Non admin closure. §hawnpoo 23:35, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Specific slang terms redirecting to general article on slang. Specific terms are not mentioned in target article. Delete as pointless. Mike R (talk) 16:14, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Neologisms that while examples of slang are unlikely to have the same linguistic meaning as slang in the foreseeable future. Would not object to dogg be retargeted to dog as a plausible misspelling. --Allen3 talk 17:59, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget Dogg to Dog; I think it's a reasonable search term. Delete the others, they don't pooint to anything useful, and I can't imagine anything useful for them to point to. Gavia immer (talk) 03:38, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Pointless redirects, except Dogg per above LetsdrinkTea 20:26, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget where possible, otherwise delete It is not useful to the general reader to redirect random examples of categories of word to that category.--Rogerb67 (talk) 23:45, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Inappropriate CNR, no history to preserve MBisanz talk 05:58, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nominator. CNR's are not good for these types of pages. Versus22 talk 05:50, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Delete Per CSD R2 LetsdrinkTea 20:27, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Note: CSD R2 says "except the Category:, Template:, Wikipedia:, Help: and Portal: namespaces.", so it does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion -- IRP 23:21, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion: this is an unnecessary cross-namespace redirect and is not linked in many pages, or in important places (it's just linked on a few user talk pages and essays, and those links can be cleaned up rather easily. rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 00:36, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nominator. CNR's are not good for these types of pages. Versus22 talk 05:50, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Delete Per CSD R2, also appears to be a Neologism LetsdrinkTea 20:28, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete More appropriate as a neologism article, should the term become sufficiently notable (R2 does not apply to Wikipedia: namespace). --Rogerb67 (talk) 23:40, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reopening discussion. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:01, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Recently created cross-namespace redirect that saves the typing of one colon (over MOS:DABRL). Poor cost-benefit ratio. Rogerb67 (talk) 00:28, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per the nom. MOS:DABRL alreadys takes care of this. Lord Sesshomaru (talkedits) 04:23, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Heh, I remember created the MOS:DABRL shortcut a while back. Tavix (talk) 16:09, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
