Delete: Redirect is very misleading. This makes as much sense as redirecting Science or Physical Review to scientific journal (assuming the Science/Physical Review articles wasn't already written). A redirect to its publisher is a good alternative to deletion, assuming we have an article on the publisher (whoever that might be).

  • Well this is getting a massive amount of hits, presumably though inclusion on the List of men's magazines, so we should have an article or redirect here. Redirecting to the publisher would normally be a good strategy, but in this case the publishers are "Chéri Magazine, Inc" so are unlikely to be notable for anything else (I've not looked though). I know next to nothing about how companies in the US operate, but it doesn't appear from their listing on the New York Department of State's website [1] that they are a subsidiary of another company.

    The discalimer on their website mentions that the "Cheri" trademark is registered to "Conrey Communications, Inc", Google gets no hits for that other than the same disclaimer, it is not a New York company afaict. The only other name on the disclaimer is the Child Protection and Obscenity Enforcement Act record holder, which is Blue Horizon Media. The top google hit for that company is our Playgirl article, which notes "Playgirl is published by New York-based company Blue Horizon Media, which also publishes [...] Chéri and a number of other hardcore pornographic magazines." They don't have an article, nor apparently much of a web presence (note there are at least two other companies with the same name).

    I don't have any opinion on whether the magazine is notable enough for an article, but the redirects creator didn't think they were back in 2005 - the magazine was launched in 1976. As for a redirect target, perhaps List of men's magazines would be better? Thryduulf (talk) 00:38, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Usually these general lists are restricted to include the notable magazines. So if it's not notable enough for an article, it wouldn't be notable enough for the list. So it'd get purged from the list, and the redirect wouldn't make sense. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 16:02, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ELM4-ALK positive lung cancer[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. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 03:47, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The original title (ELM4) was a misspelling accidentally created by the article's author. I have moved the article to the correct title (EML4). This leaves the misspelt redirect, which should be deleted. Axl ¤ [Talk] 06:32, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and tag as {{R from misspelling}}. Google searches show that the article creator is not the only person to make this spelling error so we should keep the redirect to assist others who do so (e.g. an internal search for ELM4 cancer shows only this redirect and talk:Crizotinib where an editor as made the same mistake). Thryduulf (talk) 10:40, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and tag per Thryduulf. Transposing those two digits is very plausible. Rossami (talk) 23:07, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
