Water aeration[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was N/A. Nominator converted redirect (Pond aeration) into an article so RFD no longer applicable. -- JLaTondre (talk) 20:50, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend deletion of the Pond Aeration redirect, because Water Aeration is a title too vague to encompass all types of aeration. Pond Aeration is a specific subset of Water Aeration that is entitled to its own page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trlabarge (talk • contribs) 20:41, 9 August 2010

  • Keep - the nomination is, of course, the wrong way round. Redirecting the specitic to the general is fine. This is a heavily used redirect with relevant information at the target. The redirect doesn't prevent the nominator, or any other editor writing a page on 'Pond aeration' if so minded. The nominator removed substantial content from this project page, here which gives me cause for concern. Bridgeplayer (talk) 22:05, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Jafeluv (talk) 07:39, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend deletion because this word does not occur in the target article (nor any obvious version that I noticed) and is apparently a neologism, merely mentioned in the Language Log blog on occasion, for a hypothetical (and quite dubious) part of the brain of that seems primarily discussed in unreliable sources. My quick attempts to find more reliable sources (Google Book Search on "crockus" (not "crocus"), GBS on "crockus brain") came up with nothing at all. I'd argue that there's nowhere to redirect this term to, and its mere traceless and sourceless existence undermines Wikipedia's credibility, however well-intentioned the redirect's creation. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 04:24, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - not mentioned in the target and would be confusing to a reader. Can be recreated if someone can write a reliably sourced stub. In passing, I would say that this was an excellently produced nomination. Bridgeplayer (talk) 13:31, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The redirect has no transclusions, it isn't linked to anywhere. It should be deleted.
--Gyrobo (talk) 03:10, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – I have tagged the redirect for speedy delete, G6 (housekeeping). /HeyMid (contributions) 16:48, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: the redirect is an instance of gaming Wikipedia's search box and is misleading. It is a slur of the book, "The Franklin Cover-up". Jeremystalked(law 296) 03:00, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
