Delete. Faith Evangelical Free Church is not mentioned at all in the article. The only mentions of churches at all are under tornadoes. Iwilsonp (talk) 22:56, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: A Google search pulls up a church in Acton, MA, but the wikipedia article on Acton, MA has no mention of this church.
  • It's a real church, apparently, or was. Its now-defunct website is archived (from 2001!) here. The website was linked from the original creation of this page, which was subsequently redirected. It's an unlikely search, and even if someone did search for it, there is no info about it at the target. Delete. Ivanvector (talk) 23:17, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Updated: church's active website is here. Ivanvector (talk) 23:18, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I made this a redirect back in 2005. An IP user had created individual stub articles for churches in this city, and linked them from the page. After discussion the stubs were made to redirect to the list of churches Austin, Minnesota#Churches. That list was removed this August as being a rather non-notable list. As pointed out, the problem with this name, and some of the others, is that it could refer to other churches in other cities. There is absolutely no reason to keep this redirect alive. — Gareth Hughes (talk) 09:33, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Highly implausible redirect; but since it was created from a page move (and seven years ago as well), it's not eligible for R3. Redrose64 (talk) 13:39, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Complete nonsense in regards to encyclopedic value. Steel1943 (talk) 14:25, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Nonsense. Ivanvector (talk) 16:22, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • retarget to Watchlist. I suspect that almost everyone using this is looking either for their Wikipedia watchlist or information about their watchlist. The self-referential hatnote at the Watchlist dab page takes them to exactly this. If there is any link between "My Watchlist" and the current target then this can easily be added to the disambiguation. Thryduulf (talk) 17:14, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The issues that I see with this option is that the redirect is misspelled for that purpose, it would not be targeting a disambiguation that specifically matches the redirect's term, and both My Watchlist and My watchlist currently do not exist and thus there is no clear currently-in-existence method in which to reference this option. Steel1943 (talk) 18:27, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Hmm, I'd missed this wasn't "My watchlist" (which I think should be targeted at the Watchlist dab per my comment above, (and redirects to special pages not working) the lack of anything explicitly called "My watchlist" there isn't an issue, as it's referencing the hatnote). Looking at Google results, this is a very common typo for "watchlist" and so I'd have no hesitation redirecting Wachlist to Watchlist; with the "my" though I'm not so certain about.

  • Delete per nom. --Lenticel (talk) 00:37, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete. Huh? What the...? What does misspelling Watchlist have to do with train parts? Maybe the creator was attempting to add Bogie to their watchlist? Whatever the reason, it certainly shouldn't be a redirect to bogie. --Mr. Guye (talk) 03:33, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • 'Delete per all above. Probably, yeah, attempting to add as Guye says. My washing list would be closer. (or even my wish list). Si Trew (talk) 12:02, 14 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that this redirect should be deleted. The redirect contains dysfunctional wiki markup that is not even correct (the words "Characters", "of", and "and", as well as the various commas should not be italicized). In addition, its version without wiki markup, Characters of Final Fantasy XIII, XIII-2 and Lightning Returns, already exists and points towards the same target.

  • Strong delete redirects should not contain wikimarkup, it makes them broken -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 05:26, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. What's the difference in titles between markup and elusive Unicode characters? Si Trew (talk) 09:11, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

With the fact that this redirect contains non-functional wiki markup, plus the space in between the ")" and the end of the non-functional wiki markup, this redirect being used seems highly unlikely. Also, the wiki markup in the title could cause issues on pages if an editor tries to link to the redirect. Steel1943 (talk) 02:44, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
