June 18[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on June 18, 2011

Mutant growth hormone (comics)[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. Thryduulf (talk) 12:47, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - an article on this fictional substance was recently deleted at AFD. A dissenting editor created this worthless redirect without consensus, which duplicates the existing Mutant Growth Hormone redirect. Harley Hudson (talk) 17:28, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep-Redirects like this are hardly "worthless". There having been an article at this title previously means that links to it, both within and outside Wikipedia, may exist. This redirect allows anyone using such a link to be redirected to an article with information on the subject they seek.--Fyre2387 (talkcontribs) 20:31, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep - Well, there is a feasible reason for it being there, but at the same time, we do have to consider what is a reasonable limit for redirects. I'm not sure; I say keep, but with some reluctance. --JB Adder | Talk 02:04, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • 'Note User:Harley Hudson has been blocked as a sockpuppet of User:Otto4711. Jclemens (talk) 06:00, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Adobe Presenter[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 --Taelus (talk) 12:04, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A pointless redirect. The article only mentions Presenter once; and it does so without describing it. (Yes, just a name in the middle of the air!) Fleet Command (talk) 10:29, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Before deleting the redirect, there are a few articles which refers to Adobe Presenter (see here). Just need to make sure these links are correctly modified to link to Adobe Connect instead. --Damaster98 (talk) 16:56, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • No we should not do that. The purpose of a redirect is to help take readers to information about the subject of the redirect. There is no information about Adobe Presenter on Wikipedia! I have already unlinked all article backlinks to this redirect. Fleet Command (talk) 09:27, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Erith & Dartford Town F.C.[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. There is unanimous agreement that the redirect is incorrect. While there is disagreement on whether Erith and Dartford Town F.C. are notable enough for an article the editing history of the redirect is not required to start a new article. I don't see a need for preemptive salting, but WP:RFPP is the location to request protection if it turns out I'm wrong. Thryduulf (talk) 12:55, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Erith & Dartford Town and Erith Town are completely separate clubs - see their respective websites here and here. There is no connection between them other than playing in the same town, so no reason to redirect one to the other. I would just turn the redirect into a full article on EDTFC, but the club does not meet WP:FOOTY notability requirements -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom, and I would suggest SALTing to prevent over-eager editors either re-creating the redirect or starting an article that would only get deleted. GiantSnowman 20:45, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. No connection between the two clubs. Argyle 4 Lifetalk 10:00, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't think it should be deleted yet, but no redirect. According to the FA website, EDTFC have applied to compete in next year's FA Cup so that would help them meet the notability requirements.VampireKilla (talk) 13:07, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Portal:Georgia[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 as a disambiguation page. Jafeluv (talk) 11:55, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects to the Georgia (country) portal. Aren't there many portals, like the U.S. state portal? JJ98 (Talk / Contributions) 04:52, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambiguate up until 2009, it was a disambiguation page, then Wikignome turned it into a redirect. 65.94.47.63 (talk) 06:53, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate' per 65.94.47.63. Thryduulf (talk) 08:18, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comeback Season II[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 Retarget to Drake discography#Mixtapes RunningOnBrains(talk) 04:51, 5 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, possible hoax, no mention on Drake (entertainer) or Drake discography. 117Avenue (talk) 02:56, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Neutral comments -- I was asked to respond here since I created the redirect when I declined an improper A1 CSD tag in March 2010. The change from an article to a redirect was based upon Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comeback Season.
It should also be noted here that Wikipedia cannot reference itself, so the absence or presence of something in a Wikipedia article is meaningless in determining verifiability or a hoax. A google search provides multiple hits on sales and download sites (for example, [1] and [2] ) and cover images for this mixtape. This mixtape apparently exists and doesn't appear to be a hoax.
OTOH, I am unfamiliar with the notability criteria for this topic. So I am uncertain whether or not the Drake discography should include these types of mixtapes. Editors more familiar with the topic should determine this. By the way, the first mixtape CD Comeback Season should probably have been redirected after its AFD deletion since the article does have some commentary there and it is included in the discography. CactusWriter (talk) 18:25, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It does, and since yesterday the lower case S is a dab page. 117Avenue (talk) 22:41, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, now we have a problem. The list entry has been removed from the discography three times now. Are the references not good? 117Avenue (talk) 20:19, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Jafeluv (talk) 11:51, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The first two have three consecutive L's; the second has three consecutive L's and no I (that is, "LLLINOIS"). Common misspellings are one thing, but these are just slips of the finger (or, in the third case, probably a prank). — the Man in Question (in question) 01:43, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the LLLINOIS one (though I don't think it's a prank). No opinion on the other two. Sideways713 (talk) 20:33, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
