Possibly misleading WP:XNR. The redirect is in place so that if {{Cat main}} is transcluded with no target article, it displays a link to Cat main ... set up as a redirect to the template. However, per search engines, the term "cat main" seems to be a possible loose search term for Maine Coon, a breed of cat. So, because of this possible confusion, it would probably be best to delete this redirect, and possibly WP:SALT it in case it accidentally gets created by someone viewing or placing a transclusion of {{Cat main}}.

  • Delete. GF creation but unhelpful. -DePiep (talk) 07:42, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the redir, and amend Module:Cat main to emit an error message, or otherwise fail gracefully. I can't amend the module, because it's a module. --Redrose64 (talk) 08:35, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It could very well be misleading, so this is a good call. Unsure about the need to salt, since if re-created, it would be caught as a "new CNR" and promptly deleted. Happy holidays! Paine  19:57, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:36, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for deletion pursuant to WP:NOTADVICE, which emphasizes that Wikipedia is not a "how-to" guide. Additionally, the topic of the "best way to invest in gold" is not mentioned at the target, and the search term receives very little traffic (viewed only seven times in the last thirty days). -- Notecardforfree (talk) 02:52, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Islamic Republic of the Gambia[edit]

The result of the discussion was keep. --BDD (talk) 15:32, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of this redirect because it is an obvious bias. This name is not used officially and should not be used as a redirect, as it is a WP:OR. B.Lameira (talk) 01:17, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. "Gambia declared Islamic republic by President Yahya Jammeh". While not the official name of the country, it can be seen as a plausible search term. -- Tavix (talk) 04:29, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The target article explains that President Jammeh declared the country an "Islamic Republic" on December 11, 2015. Unless there is another entity that claims to be the "Islamic Republic of the Gambia," I think we should keep this as a plausible search term. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 22:09, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
