Gabrielle song[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget. --BDD (talk) 18:32, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This could refer to songs by Gabrielle, a song called "Gabrielle" or a misspelling of Gabrielle Songe (whether that's plausible or not depends on the pronunciation, which isn't given in the article). The redirect was caused by creation of an article with an incomplete title, a mistake corrected by the same editor three minutes later. Probably better to leave as a red link.

The result of the discussion was delete, if anyone can find a way to delete it. The link in Peter James's note takes you to the page, but when you do a delete, what gets deleted is the upper-case version. Something very odd here. JohnCD (talk) 11:12, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, if technically possible. I am referring here to lower-case ƀ, not upper-case Ƀ. The lower-case form should not exist as a page title distinct from the upper-case form of the same letter, but apparently it does, as evidenced by its listing at Special:DoubleRedirects for the past couple months. Could this redirect be a legacy from a time when MediaWiki was configured differently? It came to light as a double redirect when the target was moved. I have been unable to find any way to edit this redirect, or indeed do anything with it, as all my efforts to access ƀ take me to Ƀ. – Wdchk (talk) 17:36, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - this appears to be unusable unless a page or revision id is added to the URL, and unnecessary. Fortunately it was created in a page move and I could find a link via Special:Contributions to add the Rfd template. Peter James (talk) 18:46, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Links are ƀ and history. Peter James (talk) 18:49, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - For the reasons given by the others above. No need for this entry to exist as the lower case form. EdJohnston (talk) 11:25, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
