The result of the discussion was Retarget to Little Emperor Syndrome Salix (talk): 20:37, 8 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism? Jawadreventon (talk) 20:24, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not vandalism. The edit summary left by the creator was "nickname for him in China" and nba.com and other sources also state this, although our article doesn't. It should be possible to find Little Emperor Syndrome from this title, but which should be the target I'm not certain. I am certain though that whichever is the target should have a hatnote to the other. Thryduulf (talk) 20:46, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to "little emperor syndrome" (though you might be referring to Napolean...) -- 70.50.151.36 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:29, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate to Little Emperor Syndrome and The Little Emperors --Lenticel (talk) 00:36, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate per Lenticel. Mention of Napoleon complex is also relevant there. --BDD (talk) 19:12, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Little Emperor Syndrome, which already has a hatnote pointing to The Little Emperors. I don't think a separate dab page would be of much benefit here. Jafeluv (talk) 11:49, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Little Emperor Syndrome, which on the web is the predominant usage. The novel doesn't seem to be referred to enough in the the singular form to justify more than a hat note, and the nickname doesn't seem to be that frequent either, would be used in Chinese and isn't mentioned at the English players page. --Tikiwont (talk) 19:56, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Gillion[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Indefinite and fictitious numbers#-illion. Thryduulf (talk) 21:07, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This was a redirect to a section that no longer exists (List of numbers#Gillion system). That section was removed as a violation of WP:N on 17 May 2011 (see the WikiBlame search for the content deletion). From what I can tell, the 2005 AFD for Rowlett also touches on the non-notability of the Gillion system. Because the target content has been removed, this redirect violates the principle of least confusion. The closest viable target I can see is Carmi Gillion, but I am not convinced of the wisdom of directing a surname to our only relevant biography. I'm favouring deletion here.

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 both. Ruslik_Zero 19:23, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Article is redirected to a list of cases (articles) by the Warren court, an implausible target as it has no information on the actual case. GregJackP Boomer! 11:59, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Not mentioned in the target article and would be better as a red link to encourage creation of an article regarding this case. 82.132.248.43 (talk) 08:58, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete. Ruslik_Zero 19:21, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is a cross-namespace redirect from mainspace to the project namespace. It has just a handful of incoming links, which I'll be glad to replace if the redirect is deleted, and receives about 100 pageviews each month—generated, most likely, by the incoming links.

Page statistics aside, this is not a useful redirect. It is not intended for readers, so there is really no reason for it to be in mainspace. It is not a useful shortcut for editors either since there are at least eight much shorter project-namespace shorcuts to the target page, as well as about 40 other redirects of comparable or lesser length. Thus, with the exception of the replaceable incoming links, the redirect serves no purpose. -- Black Falcon (talk) 04:04, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
