London Buses route 433 → List of bus routes in London (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
London bus 433 → List of bus routes in London (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

Delete both, this was an article about an unofficially "proposed" route, not suitable to be mentioned in the list, and should never have been redirected. Peter James (talk) 21:32, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete because the route in question isn't included in the list. –TC N7 JM 02:35, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

John Dickson of Glasgow → Glasgow (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

Delete - not mentioned in the article, unlikely to refer to anyone on John Dickson (disambiguation). Peter James (talk) 12:27, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete a John Dickson of Glasgow was the maternal grandfather of Sir Hector Maclean, 7th Baronet but isn't regarded as notable enough there for even a link. I can find no other evidence of any notable John Dickson having any significant connection with Glasgow. Thryduulf (talk) 11:12, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Whatnot (species) → Humanoid (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

Delete. Exceedingly unlikely search term. Seems an editor thought the term "whatnot", which is used to describe generic multi-purpose Muppets, was a synonym for all humanoids, and did a bunch of foolish, OR hackdom, including moving the the Humanoid article to the redirect title before it was quickly moved back to its proper title. So unneeded its continued existence is an affront to intelligence. oknazevad (talk) 01:03, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the nominator. I've fixed the one incoming link at List of fictional alien species: L where it had been piped as [[Whatnot (species)|Humanoid]]. Thryduulf (talk) 11:19, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
