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. Plausible typo as shown by the article being created at this title and its use in articles such as this. NAC. The Whispering Wind (talk) 19:43, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This name uses only one n i.e. Herman Chinery-Hesse not Hermann Chinery-Hesse. I've moved the page to the correct name and the redirects seems to become useless, hence the nomination (I haven't seen any clear documentation on dealing with typos in redirect titles though). Thanks. →Enock4seth (talk) 18:12, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, very plausible misspelling. Someone who hears the name spoken won't know how many N's there are in it. Siuenti (talk) 18:27, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Thryduulf (talk) 16:49, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This does not appear to be the name of the city in any language, I mostly get results about a restaurant in Russia. - TheChampionMan1234 09:08, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as a misspelling/mistranslation that is actually used in published works in English, e.g. [1][2]. This string of letters certainly can't refer to any other notable topic in English (obscure Vladivostok restaurants notwithstanding). 61.10.165.33 (talk) 01:45, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete to encourage article creation. Thryduulf (talk) 16:47, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This should be a red link. Ethiopian literature is certainly not limited to the archaic Ge'ez language. These days, it is mostly in Amharic or English. Kaldari (talk) 07:49, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I created this redirect back in, er, 2006 as a stop-gap measure when my knowledge of Ethiopia was imperfect, & thought the two were practically identical. Since then I've learned more about Ethiopia -- a lot more -- & were I to do it again, I'd create something along the lines of a disambiguation page, with links to the various languages (e.g. Amhara, Tigrinya, Oromo, Harari, etc.). That still wouldn't remove the need for a page on Ethiopian literature in general. -- llywrch (talk) 15:36, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think it would be better to retarget it to languages of Ethiopia than to make it a separate disambig. But I wouldn't object to deletion either. Siuenti (talk) 17:11, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Red link Both a disambiguation and pointing to languages are entirely improper. Literature is not even remotely the same thing as language, and anything under the title of Literature of Xxx should be an article detailing all types of literature and providing a history and transcending all the different styles of that country, as well as providing all the historical and cultural connections between all the the languages that have been used in the country over the years. A red link is the best option to encourage people to write this article. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 01:08, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete to encourage article creation.--Lenticel (talk) 01:24, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]


STRONG Delete I'm sure Ethiopian lit isn't written exclusively in this language. Mr. Guye (talk) 11:37, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Thryduulf (talk) 16:45, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hardly used, and "zh" means the Chinese language and not the country. - TheChampionMan1234 05:54, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. It's shorter (i.e., useful); not needed for any other purpose; and zh does not only refer to the language. If anything, it refers to the country and the language only by proxy.
    Thanks for letting me know about the discussion, though. — LlywelynII 09:07, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • “ZH” is the Language (Chinese) “CN” is the PRC. � (talk) 12:41, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • China-stub is not just for the PRC, it's for any China -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 06:21, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep certainly the Chinese language is a topic that could heirarchically fall under a China stub category tree -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:58, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
