El du Pont de Nemours[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 and tag as {{R from misspelling}}. Thryduulf (talk) 18:45, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Letter L so it reads El other than EI which uses I Eyesnore (PC) 23:49, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and tag as {{R from misspelling}} Ego White Tray (talk) 12:08, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per EWT. Until I checked the target, I thought you meant that it was EI when it should be EL and was going to vote for deletion; EL is much more common than EI, so it's natural that people would misread EI for EL. Nyttend (talk) 17:25, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Deleted per WP:SNOW and WP:BLP--Jayron32 16:55, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

All charges against the man named here have been dropped and, he is now, at best, a minor historical footnote. There is no need for his name to remain as a redirect to a set of attacks he is apparently factually innocent of. polarscribe (talk) 22:32, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • No objection to deletion. I created the redirect to prevent the typical "breaking news" creation of the article. Location (talk) 22:35, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and salt per BLP. The charges have been dropped against this man; his infamy was only temporary. Associating him with this case is needlessly damaging to his reputation. ThemFromSpace 23:18, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and salt, without delay, For now I have changed the redirect's target. It is not required that we maintain this inappropriate target throughout this discussion, only that we don't remove the tag. My76Strat (talk) 08:17, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - per nom and BLP. Mr T(Talk?) (New thread?) 08:26, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Immediate delete and SALT - per BLP. We don't need to add to what this guy has been through. I invoke SNOWBALL here.--ukexpat (talk) 16:50, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hindu Taliban[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 both and SALT. Thryduulf (talk) 18:48, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

These slangy pejorative terms are not discussed at the target nor in any other page which the target links to. These two redirects intrinsically represent a contentious POV.
Furthermore, I didn't find any reliable source which directly links either of the redirect phrases to the target. Mr T(Talk?) (New thread?) 13:38, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Samba (song)[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. --BDD (talk) 20:49, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:PRECISION - not precise enough title for failed notability Martin song (confusingly listed as both a single and not a single at Música + Alma + Sexo) which is too close to music/dance primary topic Samba as to cause ambiguity. The song is best accessible through the DAB page Samba (disambiguation) for this non-notable song. Alternatively this could be moved to more precise Samba (Ricky Martin) (or equiv) but there's no pressing need Widefox; talk 09:46, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Refine target to Música + Alma + Sexo#Tracklisting and add a hotnote to the dab page. It is standard for titles of songs to redirect to the albums they feature on if they are the primary topic for a search term. In this case there are no other songs that are competing for the title, and neither the musical style nor the dance are songs, so there is no reason to change things. This got 180 views last month and changing this would inconvenience people for no benefit.Thryduulf (talk) 10:33, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Refined to Música + Alma + Sexo#Promotion and singles  Done, hatnote  Done. This isn't a single on the album (so not in the tracklist), and only released in Brazil so not quite as clear cut. The viewcount 1. includes the false clicks I'm aiming to prevent 2. may now be less significant that suggests - the album had two self-links and the template linked through the redir too. I've fixed all those incoming (another single in the template already links straight to the album). That leaves only three incoming links, which as your argument has merit I've left for now. My point is the precision/ambiguous (song), especially for non-native speakers but maybe I'm being too cautious. Current compromise seems much effort for a non-notable song compared to the primary meaning(s) (dance and musical genre) but I'm happy to close now. Widefox; talk 11:47, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Keep ~ Amory (u • t • c) 23:31, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

delete, no reliable source for a significant award with this name, not listed in target article. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 22:18, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943 (talk) 05:26, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep we don't need a dab page as both posible targets go to the same page. A note on the page will suffice.--Salix (talk): 20:50, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Delete target deleted per MFD Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:San Francisco Bay Area/In the news. --Salix (talk): 20:55, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to an out of date portal segment, not used for years, with no plans to reuse again. I note that editors have pointed out that AFD's for portal pages are not normally done, as the portal editors usually manage the pages themselves, and that the AFD admins dont want to micromanage. I am the only editor of this portal right now, and since i cant delete pages (not being an admin), i have to ask here. Mercurywoodrose (talk) 00:58, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Defer. The target page has been nominated for deletion at MfD. If it is deleted this redirect will be speedily deleted (per WP:CSD#G8), if the target isn't deleted and you still want the redirect deleted, then renominate it here then. There is no point in parallel discussions. Thryduulf (talk) 01:05, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
Relisting comment: Please see Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:San Francisco Bay Area/In the news for the related MfD.

Possible vandalism or libel, nonsensical redirect Revolution1221 (talk · email · contributions) 03:14, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Disambiguate multiple posible targets --Salix (talk): 21:09, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Album has never been referred to as "WCIP" Revolution1221 (talk · email · contributions) 03:12, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm against the disambig, since we don't have enough topics for it, but feel free to draft one and prove me wrong. Ego White Tray (talk) 01:14, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I drafted a disambiguation page at User:Ultraexactzz/WCIP. The order, obviously, could probably stand to be adjusted, if only to the alphabetical. I didn't see the radio station, but that should be added as well - and I omitted wcip.org, because reasons. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 12:58, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment After retargeting, use Ultraexactzz's draft as WCIP (disambiguation). I stand by view that WCIP should redirect to the Indigenous people's organization. Ego White Tray (talk) 01:24, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
