Wikipedia:GALLERY et al[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 the 1st and 3d. Retarget the 2d to match its page. (Converted to a normal talk page after I placed an {{oldrfd}} template on it.) Ruslik_Zero 09:33, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I find it utterly confusing that WP:GALLERY and WP:Gallery have different targets. It's also confusing that WP:Gallery goes to one page and that WT:Gallery goes to the talk page of a different page. I think that the redirects should be changed so that WP:Gallery and WP:GALLERY both go to the same page and so that WT:Gallery goes to the talk page of that page.

  • Keep 1st and 3rd as is; retarget 2nd → WT:Image use policy to be consistent with 3rd redirect. This is unlikely to be the only instance where the uppercase and lowercase shortcuts go to different targets. Both targets are clearly tagged with an appropriate {{shortcut}} notice. WT:Gallery goes to the talk page of a failed proposal, so it clearly needs to coincide with its partner project page, WP:Gallery. – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 04:10, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Here is another similar redirect that needs to be retargeted to Wikipedia talk:Image use policy:

The result of the discussion was Delete. Ruslik_Zero 09:30, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans are two unconnected films, despite both having the same directors and writers. Having Epic Movie 2 redirect there makes no sense and is confusing, as someone might expect an Epic Movie sequel instead of a totally different movie.

  • Delete, not the same thing. No discussion of a sequel in the Epic Movie article so not a good idea to retarget. Siuenti (talk) 20:26, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. According to Imdb Meet the Spartans is a.k.a. Epic Movie 2. – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 04:36, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    That's not a reliable source, and this "alternate title" is not even mentioned in the IMDB page for Meet the Spartans. Siuenti (talk) 05:24, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    I know there are past issues with Imdb, but it is used as a reference source frequently, to include on the target page. There are several alternate titles linked to from the Imdb main page; scroll down to the "Details" section and click the "See more" link after "Also known as". If you like Facebook, the Epic Movie 2 page has been merged with the Meet the Spartans page. A web search will reveal that there are several websites that connect the two film titles.

  • Delete No Epic Movie 2, nobody ever thought Spartans was a sequel. Nate (chatter) 06:05, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    No Epic Movie 2
    which is why it is a redirect and has only the notability of its target.
    nobody ever thought Spartans was a sequel
    contrary to evidence found during a search. – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 17:50, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is a redirect mistakenly created by Canoe1967, one pointing to the nonexistent user Canoe. Binksternet (talk) 00:06, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
