The result of the discussion was retarget to Unicorn (non-admin closure) NickGibson3900 Talk 00:47, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Unicorn per WP:PLURALPT. No topic on the disambiguation page comes close to the primary topic, Unicorn, either in interest or in historical importance. Also, very few of them are even able to be referred to in the plural. bd2412 T 19:22, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

  • Support. Unicorn has the for-other-use hatnote so that option to disambiguation is not removed.野狼院ひさし Hisashi Yarouin 00:01, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per nominator. Unicorn is clearly the WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT for "unicorns"; no other topic called "unicorns" even reaches the level of usage/long-term significance of, e.g. Cars (film) (which is not the target of Cars), let alone of Windows. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 00:32, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per all above. Si Trew (talk) 00:56, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per nom --Lenticel (talk) 02:24, 21 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget - very likely a reader searching for Unicorns does indeed mean the animal. Well, "animal". WilyD 09:06, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a Chinese term for patriotism and it certainly isn't restricted to Chinese nationalism. - TheChampionMan1234 04:24, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nominator. Same characters could be hanja for Korean nationalism or pre-WWII writing for Japanese nationalism, or whatever. And "patriotism" or "nationalism" are general topics which aren't associated with a particular language, so this title isn't appropriate for a CJK disambiguation page. 61.10.165.33 (talk) 01:23, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate to the CJK articles, as the only valid topics on Wikipedia for this script, targets for which there is no native use of this script are not valid targets, so only the Japanese, Korean, and Chinese articles are valid targets. -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 21:29, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy delete as vandalism. Thryduulf (talk) 08:58, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know why this redirect exists, and it might be a hoax. It was created by a new editor and this is their only edit. The disambiguation page Andruksen, was created by a new editor and it's that editor's only edit. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 03:16, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Now that I've patrolled a couple more pages, it appears to be part of a vandalism spree, all consisting of single use accounts who make a single Andruksen page. So, based on that, speedy delete as hoax or vandalism. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 03:23, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
