Again (2009 song)[edit]

The result of the discussion was Retarget to Again. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 11:59, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This redirect could equally apply to either Again (Yui song) and Again (Flyleaf song), both of which are 2009 songs with the title "Again". I suppose the redirect could be converted to a dab page, but it's an unlikely search term, and the disambiguation is already well-covered by existing dab page at Again. The only article-space links to the redirect were piped links, which I've changed to the actual article names, Again (Yui song) and Again (Flyleaf song), as applicable.

The original article was created for the Flyleaf song, which I moved to Again (Flyleaf song), creating the initial redirect. If there could be any confusion, I'd say Delete per nom. --Wolfer68 (talk) 19:00, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Again disambiguation page. While the year should not be used as a basis of disambiguation of music (it should be by either artist or composer), it is nonetheless used with great regularity. Deletion of the redirect would only prompt recreation; retargeting it would be a far better choice. Note that Again (song) is also a redirect to the dab page.

  • Retarget per above.--Tikiwont (talk) 15:31, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget as per B.Wind above. This should point to a DAB page but there's no reason it needs to be one specific to only 2009 songs. The small number of people that get to this page should be able to figure out what they want. —mako 02:29, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment As the nom, I have no problem with the Redirect solution proposed above; especially because User:B.Wind is almost certainly correct; it might just get recreated if deleted. TJRC (talk) 07:43, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

access mode[edit]

The result of the discussion was Delete. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 11:57, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This was originally a stub that mentioned the VAX and someone turned it into a redirect. There are mentions of access modes (and access levels) in many articles in many domains and we do best by not putting anything in the way of searches. (There are no incoming links.)

  • Delete as being too generic to be useful as a search item. As a rule, it is not a good idea to have general redirect to specific... particularly something so nebulous as this. B.Wind (talk) 02:38, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • RetargetAccess control. As noted above, the current target is much too specific for this term. While Access control is not a perfect fit, it does provide basic information on a variety of access modes (physical, telecommunications, IT security) and dab links to other forms of access control. --Allen3 talk 13:16, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I believe these topics are sufficiently different that a redirect would not be helpful. Matchups 16:10, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete -- This is better off going to search results. It could mean any number of things and I see no reason to assume that VAX should be the first thing on that list. —mako 01:40, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism Kameejl (Talk) 03:38, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete per criterion G3 (pure vandalism). I have tagged it. Kameejl, in the future, such redirects do not have to come here to be deleted; you can just add {{db-vandalism}} to the page, and someone will delete it for you. Gavia immer (talk) 02:37, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
