Stewart Miller[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 Kept. -- JLaTondre (talk) 03:29, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest to delete. The actor with name Stewart Miller, with no notability, acting in The Object of Beauty, is not the same person as the engineer Stewart E. Miller. SchreyP (talk) 23:53, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The redirect was auto-generated by User:Polbot -- SchreyP (talk) 23:57, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - entirely likely search term. I have disambiguated the actor at The Object of Beauty. If that actor becomes notable then we can deal with that. Bridgeplayer (talk) 00:18, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Funny but... no. Inappropriate. Magioladitis (talk) 15:32, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Template:Looong, so it's not confused with the Asian name Loong. It's a quite effective mnemonic, actually. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ Contribs. 20:24, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Template:Very long. No need to move to another template that hasn't been created yet. --Funandtrvl (talk) 05:59, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.

Caucasian Black Cock[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 keep. Consensus seems to be that this seems to be a legitimate, if somewhat unlikely, search target. Dabomb87 (talk) 23:52, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Created by MrsSunDoesntShine (talk · contribs); originally nominated for speedy deletion by Beyond My Ken (talk · contribs) as vandalism ("Probable hoax or deliberate crude humor: Ghits all track back to one article, which seems to be referring to a larger animal, not a bird"), which I had declined. On the talk page the creator explained that he had created the page as an analogy to Black Cock (which redirects to Black Grouse). (From the Google hits, I don't see any evidence that "Caucasian black cock" would refer to a mammal. The hits include: a) copies of this article; b) entry in the Georgian dictionary (which lists "Caucasian black cock" as a previous entry); c) this (of which I can't make heads or tails); and d) pornography.) [This is a procedural nomination, though I don't really object to the deletion due to a lack of actual useage of the term.] - Mike Rosoft (talk) 11:33, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete both - According to an editor at WikiProject Birds, the name refers to only the male of the species. My assumption that the Google hits were referrring to a mammal was all about context: all the other species listed are mammals, and no birds are listed. My feeling is that absent any compelling need for the redirects, both Caucasian Black Cock and Black Cock should be deleted as unnecessary and salted as vandalism attractants. Beyond My Ken (talk) 15:22, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • To the contrary, a) if the name refers to a male of the species, it's a legitimate redirect, and b) Tetraogallus (mentioned in the same entry of the page) isn't a mammal, either (and other entries list more bird species, such as pheasant or partridge). - Mike Rosoft (talk) 19:46, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I stand corrected regarding no bird names in the Google hit, but as to the other, how likely is it that someone who wants to find about the male of the caucasian black grouse is going to search in "caucasian black cock"? Negligible, I think. Beyond My Ken (talk) 02:53, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep but protect indefinitely to prevent vandalism. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:46, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Valid redirect. But protect indef as above. Viriditas (talk) 22:20, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese expansionism[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 delete, noting that this redirect was deleted via RFD in the past. — ξxplicit 00:44, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, because is ambiguous and POV. Chinese expansionism is not an established term for any one event in particular, and is variously pejoratively used for past territorial expansion, present economic expansion, and outmigration. Even among detractors of Chinese reunification, "Chinese expansionism" is, because of this ambiguity, not a useful term. Quigley (talk) 03:01, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete has nothing to do with the Han Dynasty expanding into the Ferghana Valley. 184.144.160.77 (talk) 05:36, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
