SWINE FLU VIRUS TYPE H1N1 → 2009 flu pandemic (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete per WP:RCAPS, this is an implausible and novel capitalization with awkward syntax as well. Stats are minimal. -- Tavix ^(talk) 05:53, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom or Very Weak Retarget to Swine influenza. The caps are troublesome but there are discussions of the virus' H1N1 variant at the swine influenza article. --Lenticel ^(talk) 06:43, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2004 map → Jesusland map (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete as vague. This is probably not the most significant map of the year 2004. -- Tavix ^(talk) 05:48, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as vague. I believe a lot of maps have been generated in 2004 --Lenticel ^(talk) 06:41, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dumeffistan → Jesusland map (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete. Not mentioned in the article and I can't figure out what it means. -- Tavix ^(talk) 05:47, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WP:R#D8. It's an extremely obscure bowdlerisation (three GHits, all of them Wikipedia/scrapers) of Dumbfuckistan, a somewhat-widespread slang term used in conjunction with that map, but which isn't discussed in the target article either, and probably can't be discussed due to lack of WP:RS. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 14:32, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as obscure synonym --Lenticel ^(talk) 23:03, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nintendo v → Wii (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete as vague. What could the 'v' stand for? Nintendo video? Nintendo video games? Unsurprisingly, I'm not getting hits that it refers to the 'Wii.'-- Tavix ^(talk) 05:31, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. I personally think of roman numeral "V" when I look at the "v".—Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 00:28, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That's another good point. I didn't notice that...probably because it is lowercase. -- Tavix ^(talk) 00:54, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom & WP:XY. Potential typo for various things (e.g. Nintendo Vs.), correct name for nothing, and gums up the search results for readers trying to get to any pages or plausible redirects starting with this string. FWIW I thought of "Nintendo v. [someone getting sued by Nintendo]", but surprisingly we don't have articles on any of those court cases (two potentially-notable ones: Nintendo v Lik Sang and Nintendo v PC Box). 58.176.246.42 (talk) 03:53, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting observation. We have some court cases involving Nintendo (e.g. Lewis Galoob Toys, Inc. v. Nintendo of America, Inc., Atari Games Corp. v. Nintendo of America Inc., Universal City Studios, Inc. v. Nintendo Co., Ltd.), but with Nintendo as the defendant.—Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 04:50, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

GameCube 2 (N5) → Wii (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete there's no significance here. This is just a combination of two rumored names for the Wii. -- Tavix ^(talk) 05:25, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as above. --Kiyoshiendo (talk) 16:16, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
