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 delete all. Magioladitis (talk) 13:38, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. These redirects are from Greek words that are etymologically related to the target words, but mean different things in Greek. The actual meanings (‘almond’, ‘pure’, ‘charcoal’, and ‘mountain’) are not especially Greek either. Gorobay (talk) 00:22, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 06:44, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of Girl Meets World (TV series) episodes[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 keep. We have plenty of redirects from unnecessary disambiguation; I've tagged this one as such. --BDD (talk) 18:24, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect at List of Girl Meets World episodes already exists, this one was recently created and is unnecessary as it an unlikely search term and will need to be updated when the article at the correct location eventually created. Geraldo Perez (talk) 23:35, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:11, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete -- for same reason as similar RfD entry below. MPFitz1968 (talk) 04:46, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Extra disambiguation in the redirect's title is okay, as long as it is not inaccurate, and this is not inaccurate. Steel1943 (talk) 18:44, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:12, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete -- Unnecessary ... "(TV Series)" in the above is redundant as there is no ambiguity with the title of the associated TV series. (Will voice my thoughts under only this RfD entry, even though two entries for the same are listed. Edit: Oops, saw the small difference between the two entries, but I will extend my "Delete" vote to the other as well.) MPFitz1968 (talk) 04:42, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The capitalized "Series" in the title makes this redirect unlikely to be used if the lowercase "series" redirect exists. Steel1943 (talk) 18:45, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Tyler Kepner[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 delete. --BDD (talk) 18:21, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No info on Kepner on this page. Not even a fleeting mention of his name. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 22:59, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete According to this article, Mr. Kepner seems to be a national baseball correspondent for the New York Times. It is perhaps best to keep this as a red link instead of a retarget since he's not mentioned in the target article. --Lenticel (talk) 04:58, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of upcoming films[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 delete. After over a month of listing, I find weak consensus to delete, rather than to create a CNR, which is generally discouraged. --BDD (talk) 18:21, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not a logical redirect BOVINEBOY2008 22:01, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Category:Upcoming films rather than breaking any inbound off-wiki links, bookmarks etc. Siuenti (talk) 20:23, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Category:Upcoming films per Siuenti, so long as that's allowed (I'm not sure I've ever seen a redirect from the mainspace go to a category page, so I don't know if that's supposed to be done or not). That seems like the most logical option. Alphius (talk) 00:16, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    It seems to be allowed; there are plenty of members of Category:Redirects to category space which don't start with CAT. Siuenti (talk) 19:06, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't see justification for a CNR especially since we wouldn't be pointing it to a list. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 04:02, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Pages with "upcoming" in the title are never a good idea as by their nature they will soon become out of date and therefore incorrect. Redirects to categories are never a good idea for the reasons stated at WP:CNR as they send the casual reader into the internal workings of the encyclopedia. 2.30.92.222 (talk) 20:59, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • You are correct that WP:CNR is about sending users unexpectedly into the internal workings of the encyclopaedia, but that is not an accurate description of the entire category namespace. Most categories, such as Category:Upcoming films, are reader-facing and so can be perfectly valid targets of mainspace redirects. No comment on whether this would be a good redirect.Thryduulf (talk) 08:50, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

School Rumble faculty members[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 keep. --BDD (talk) 18:19, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a fictional term that no one would specifically search on. The category itself is trivial as it would not have any more than a handful of noteworthy faculty. AngusWOOF (talk) 21:39, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep If someone is looking for this, this is the page that has it. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 03:25, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Logically implies "teacher characters in the anime School Rumble" IMO, and the sectional target is spot on for this. 野狼院ひさし Hisashi Yarouin 06:12, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Hisashi and Oiyarbepsy, but add {{R to section}}. Si Trew (talk) 10:51, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Chronology of the Bible. --BDD (talk) 18:18, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

typo (chrononology) of Biblical chronology, which is being redirected elsewhere. Bennylin (talk) 07:05, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • retarget to Chronology of the Bible as a misspelling of "Biblical chronology" which redirects there. Thryduulf (talk) 13:34, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, current target is nonsensical and we don’t need to have every single typo listed � (talk) 20:10, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per Thryduulf. Si Trew (talk) 10:49, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not especially Spanish. - TheChampionMan1234 02:20, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete WP:NOT a translation dictionary. General topic with no particular affinity for any langauge -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:17, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Acuelh[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 delete. Although foreign-language redirects to the main page have been kept in the past, this one's not an exact match, and there's certainly consensus to delete it. --BDD (talk) 18:12, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What language is this? I am trying to clean up Category:Redirects from non-English-language terms so that it only contains sub-categories, it appears to be another redirect created by the infamous Eubot - TheChampionMan1234 00:29, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete oc:Acuèlh is the Occitan Wikipedia Main Page, found with Google search. English WP Main Page has no affinity to this language. 野狼院ひさし Hisashi Yarouin 01:24, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, WP:FORRED should be a CSD criterion � (talk) 20:11, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is not the Occitan main page. No information written in Occitan is available. WP:NOT a translation dictionary -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:23, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Eubot created a boatload of wrong and misleading redirects -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:24, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. In EN:WP, most words for the other WPs' "main page" redirect to our main page. I am not sure if these are true redirects though. For exampleAccueil (French) and Kezdőlap (Hungarian). Kezdolap also does (without the diacritics). I don't see why this should be different. I can't seem to get to the actual pages, it always takes me to the main page (even with redirect=no). There's a discussion here at the villiage pump Si Trew (talk) 10:43, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, it may have been useful early in MediaWiki's life, but there is now good support for switching to another language WP's main page, both in the core software and with gadgets. John Vandenberg (chat) 13:48, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
