The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:15, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a shortcut to an Arbcom discussion, but it is being used as if it were a link to a policy or guideline. Having a policy on prejudice is a reasonable idea, but it should be created using our community-established processes rather than simply linking an Arbcom case. For this reason, I !vote (as nominator) to delete this redirect. VQuakr (talk) 19:45, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I created this. No big deal at the time, but it's probably outlived its usefulness. Black Kite (talk) 20:00, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete it will probably confuse both the readers and the wiki editors --Lenticel (talk) 00:37, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: from the discussion at WT:TPG, it's being used in a WP:NPA context rather than a WP:NPOV context, though I could see either one as being a potential target. No opinion on building out a new guideline/essay at this location, but that can be done later and regardless of what happens here. I agree that it really shouldn't point to the Arbcom case though, that seems like WP:BEANS. Ivanvector (talk) 00:46, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Expanded comment: I would prefer to retarget, since I'm sure this is likely to come up at some point, however from the links it seems to be currently unused, except for a link from WP:TPG which could be retargeted to WP:NPOV or simply removed. Delete this to prevent confusion. I'm not sure which should be the target article anyway, and it can be recreated if/when a specific anti-prejudice guideline is created.

  • Delete or retarget this clearly is not useful in the general case, and occupies a title that is likely to be mislinked to. If this Arbcom discussion needs a shortcut, it should include a Noleander (talk · contribs) indication. -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 05:49, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Such a redirect should begin with Wikipedia: Oiyarbepsy (talk) 04:35, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually correct capitalisation redirect created by me need not be deleted as there are already too many pages like that Special:PrefixIndex/WikiProject, around 100 of them. Trotting cove (talk) 04:29, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
They should all be deleted (except possibly "WikiProject" / "WikiProjects" which would link to Wiki, as a project using a wiki is a "wiki project". A {{selfref}} hatnote can indicate the project page that describes what a Wikipedia WikiProject is, if necessary.) -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 06:31, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move without redirect to Wikipedia: space as the creator clearly meant to do this. 2.30.93.60 (talk) 13:31, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah that's not a bad idea. Wikipedia:WikiProject Bjork exists; Wikipedia:Wikiproject bjork and Wikipedia:WikiProject bjork are both redlinks. Ivanvector (talk) 21:57, 24 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

User:FD[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 Speedy Delete, G2 by User:CactusWriter. Test edit Lenticel (talk) 00:36, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect from User:FD to User:Example was created by a user other than FD, likely as a test or to prove a point. Generally, it is usual to avoid substantially editing another's user and user talk pages other than where it is likely edits are expected and/or will be helpful, and I don't anticipate a case in which this particular redirect will be helpful.
