This redirect points to Template:WikiProject Africa. It is not used by anything and with its ambiguous title is unlikely to be used in the future. I recommend deletion. Kumioko (talk) 19:41, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Ruslik_Zero 18:35, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect points to Template:WikiProject .NET and is not used by any page. It was created in 2008 when WikiPedia still used subpages with the / and is no longer used or needed. Kumioko (talk) 19:13, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Just as a small point - I've been editing since December 2004 and both CamelCase and subpages (in the main namespace) were gone when I arrived. Thryduulf (talk) 21:33, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was No consensus (keep). -- JLaTondre (talk) 13:49, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect points to Template:Maths rating and hasn't been used since 2007. I see no reason to keep it and recommend it be deleted. Kumioko (talk) 18:55, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom.--Salix (talk): 19:23, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep to preserve history. The template has been orphaned by the newer, better template but redirects provide cheap insurance in case one of those older pages has to be restored to a version still containing the old template name. It is not confusing nor is it apparently in the way of any other content. Leaving it is cheaper than deleting it. Rossami (talk) 21:05, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading redirect that is not linked to! Microsoft Word and Microsoft OneNote are separate products. Fleet Command (talk) 06:56, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is also mistakenly created during move operation. (Sorry, my mistaken. Won't happen again.) Fleet Command (talk) 06:50, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is mistakenly created during move operation. (My mistake, sorry.) Fleet Command (talk) 06:49, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Just to clarify: The target of this redirect is my mistake, not the source. However, there is also another reason for deleting it: To make way for a possible SharePoint 2010 icon, since SharePoint is a distinct suite of software that is different from SharePoint Workspace. Fleet Command (talk) 06:54, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment if you upload a new file to the name of the redirect, won't the file be created there, and thus a new filepage be created? 65.93.12.101 (talk) 07:12, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not sure, but that's not the point. Until this name is needed, it is a misleading redirect. Too bad there is no revert feature for moves... Or, at least one that ALWAYS works... Fleet Command (talk) 12:33, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There's a request for a new file process at WP:VP/PR a "files for discussion" to deal with file move and reversion things. 65.93.12.101 (talk) 05:02, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Fleet Command (talk) 12:18, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
