Delete Target article doesn't address the topic (material was deleted as unsourced/dubious/weasel in 2007). — Smjg (talk) 23:23, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Redirect is confusing to someone (like me) who doesn't know what "Middle Child Syndrome" is. Randomizer3 (talk) 02:04, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No connection to formal leadership - never been a GBC representative or a formal leader of International Society for Krishna Consciousness. Thus the redirect is unjustified. Actually it needs to be deleted as the person is not notable. Wikidas© 22:13, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Speedy delete. Reaper Eternal (talk) 18:57, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I originally attempted to go to MFD for this, but was redirected here. The rationale is the same: these are redirects from my own talk page archives which I moved to new names, so I want them deleted. 21:26, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete as user request ({{db-u1}}). Juhachi, it looks like you have a couple of your user pages that still link to the Archive 9 redirect, so I recommend you fix that. Ego White Tray (talk) 01:44, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I would have used {{db-u1}}, but an admin, User:Doug, initially refused deleting my other talk page archives when I tagged them as such. And thanks for telling me about the links; I removed them.-- 03:50, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Deleted per U1. We don't delete talk page archives because of the content on them. Since the entire history of these pages consisted of redirects, there was nothing that needed to be kept, so the nominator's request is sufficient. Nyttend (talk) 14:26, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Simon Sheppard (psychologist)[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. Ruslik_Zero 19:21, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy-delete and salting. The subject has neither the normal, or any formal, qualifications for the practice of psychology, nor has ever been formally employed such as by the British National Health Service as a psychologist, here in England, where the subject lives and is based. The subject is only a psychologist because of his mere say-so, or, because he claims that he is. The subject is an unemployed resident or former resident of Kingston upon Hull (Hull) east of the River Hull, or East Hull – in the historic and ceremonial East Riding of Yorkshire, in England – and a released and discharged convict with a criminal conviction, or convictions, for unlawful and prohibited hate speech. This re-direction, if not also autobiographical, is self-serving and self-promotional. -- KC9TV 20:15, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This redirect is desperately need for the exact reason described above. If this dude hoodwinks someone into thinking he is a psychologist, this redirect will point to an article that unquestionably shows that he is not, plus that he is a con. Redirects don't need to be accurate, and inaccurate redirects like this are good, since it provides people with the truth as soon as they load the page. Ego White Tray (talk) 01:31, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • But he is an unemployed local racist (without a skinhead) in England with convictions for illegal hate speech! Wikipedia is surely not here to promote, labour or nurse his delusions of grandeur! -- KC9TV 09:38, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • We don't promote him. It says in the first paragraph that he's a racist political activist. Ego White Tray (talk) 20:54, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Harmless Randomizer3 (talk) 02:28, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per the second sentence of the nominator's delete rationale. Some people think of him as a psychologist, so this redirect is useful. Nyttend (talk) 14:24, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • But only amongst the British far-right (excluding even the main branch of the British BNP) and his over-seas supporters, many are Americans, no doubt. Are we in fact giving him undue prominence? -- KC9TV 22:01, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
