May 31[edit]
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on May 31, 2012
UNC Nannygate[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 no consensus to delete. It's been almost a month and no one stood up to defend the anon's speedy-deletion rationale. I'm going to administratively close this debate. Further time seems unlikely to get any more attention. Rossami (talk) 14:10, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
- UNC Nannygate → North Carolina Tar Heels football (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Page was nominated for speedy-deletion by anon user:66.194.217.2 with the explanation "A quick Google search of "UNC Nannygate" yields a mere 71 results, most coming from websites devoted to rival fanbases." The page was created in 2010 and does not qualify under the "recently created" requirement for CSD#R3. This is a courtesy nomination to evaluate whether regular deletion is appropriate.

- When The Lord Is About To Come → Mikael Bolyos (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Delete. Non-notable song by non-notable musician whose article has been redirected to his wife's (having been tagged for 3 years for notability and sourcing). – Fayenatic London (talk) 21:22, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- Delete. I'm tempted to say speedily delete per WP:CSD#G8, but it's conceivable that there is a different suitable target. The song is clearly not notable, and I make no judgment about the artist. I wondered about retargetting to a page about the second coming of Jesus or prophecies about the end of the world, or something like that, but other than one website using the term in relation to prophecy in the Book of Mormon it doesn't seem to be used that way.

- Bolyos → Mikael Bolyos (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Delete. Surname of non-notable musician whose article has been redirected to his wife's (having been tagged for 3 years for notability and sourcing). – Fayenatic London (talk) 21:34, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- weak retarget to Marie Fredriksson, Mikael Bolyos' wife. I say weak as although this is her married name she doesn't seem to use it as a stage name and it isn't mentioned in the article. Google suggests she does use the name when working as a producer though (or maybe it's just her company name?). Thryduulf (talk) 00:49, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was Retarget to List_of_township-level_divisions_of_Hebei#Dingzhou as an alternative for deletion. Ruslik_Zero 16:12, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
Chinese pinyin name of a multinational. Per WP:FORRED, this is not an appropriate usage of a foreign language redirect, unlike, say redirect 薄瓜瓜 to the personal life section at Bo Xilai. GotR Talk 20:36, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- wow we are drowning in bureaucracy these days! I'm curious, why is it not appropriate? cheers, Nesnad (talk) 05:12, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
- It is not an original language redirect (not a redirect from the original language of the topic), since Wikipedia is not a translation dictionary... 70.24.251.208 (talk) 05:33, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was Delete as it is now without a suitable target. Ruslik_Zero 16:08, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
- Adarwis → Andrew Darwis (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Implausible misspelling. Mosmof (talk) 14:46, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- Keep Not a misspelling but a username, and so a plausible search term and alternative name per WP:R. No obvious benefit in deleting. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 17:15, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- Delete. It's not a Wikipedia user name, but a Twitter handle for one of the founders of the Kaskus website, and adarwis dot com seems to be his business website. The page Andrew Darwis has just been redirected to Kaskus. Neither of those articles mentioned "adarwis". – Fayenatic London 12:15, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

- Kafele boothe cone → Traffic cone (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
The traffic cone article had this as an alternative name, it has now been removed as hoax/vandalism so the redirect can be deleted. Peter E. James (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

- 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.
- Star's Lover (TV Seires) → Star's Lover (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Delete: The article was un-necessarily disambiguated as there are no other Star's Lover articles hence was moved to its non-disambiguation title and the word 'series' is spelled incorrectly. Michaela den (talk) 08:27, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
Weak keepNeutral. Unnecessary disambiguations are quite appropriate for redirects, and the misspelling is plausible. However, this is also a somewhat unlikely name for the series, so that's three degrees of separation from an optimal name. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 12:44, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
