Uetikon am See (Zuerich)[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) 17:21, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(eubot). Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense: mix of something-halfway-between-German-and-English and English.

roundabout explanation. It's marked as {{R from title without diacritics}}, because it was created from Uetikon am See (Zürich), yet the target has no diacritics. That's fixable, and we should mark as {{R from more specific geographic name}}. What is not fine is that the English for "Zürich" is not "Zuerich" but, er, Zurich. I'd like to get some kind of general consensus of whether foreign-language transliterations are good disambiguation terms, when the words have been naturalised into English. I'm deliberately limiting that, since obviously some disambiguation terms need to be in the native language of the target, but this one falls in a valley between two Alps. There are many others of the same pattern. But, I'll say right now, with the Eubot redirects, I'd reckon about ten are OK for every one that is a bit iffy – perhaps even fifteen or twenty to one. Still, there are about 130,000 redirects, so that's a lot to get through. I'm trying (and over at WT:CSD to establish a conservative pattern for when we can suggest a criterion to delete the most obviously harmful ones speedily. Even if that is only one in twenty, it's a lot. It's a pity there's no obvious way to mark the "good" ones as "keep", yet. Si Trew (talk) 23:57, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(Eubot) Delete. A Turkish "ü", not a German one. Gsearch for "Ayseguel" gives me just the names of a few Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts, for this exact title, even less. WP:RFD#D5 Delete as nonsense. Caps mistake is added bonus.No internal links, stats at 3 between the two of them in the last 90 days. Si Trew (talk) 23:20, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(Eubot). Created from György Stern, which was marked as {{R from title with diacritics}} but I've just changed to {{R from birth name}}. This is a Hungarian "ö", not a German one, so the "oe" makes no sense here: Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. Si Trew (talk) 22:59, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have absolutely no idea whether these make any sense or not. Not at the target (" Gainlho Poirig Ranggyong Kü" is apparently the Tibetan pinyin), gsearch gives only 4 results, two from www.pronouncekiwi.com and two others from online "dictionaries". The second is a Eubot creation from the first. The target has sixteen other redirects, all of which are essentially transliterations, and I imagine some of which are unhelpful.

The result of the discussion was Delete. I'm shocked that I couldn't find attestation of this, given that "Flüe" is German... -- Tavix (talk) 01:38, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(Eubot). English sources seem to give his name as "Nicholas of Flue" (without the diacritic), so the "Fluee" is an unlikely anglicisation, Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. The "Blessed" disambiguation(?) at the end is also rather strange. Si Trew (talk) 21:10, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • (Eubot). Delete, WP:RFD#D8 mix of foreign and English. I could be wrong but it seems a stretch to keep the disambiguation part of the title in Polish ("dzielnica Warszawy") but to drop its diacritical marks in the name of the place. There are others of a similar pattern. While, fortunately, "dzielnica Warszawy" doesn't have any diacritics, I'd apply the same reasoning to any Polish place that had had its diacritics removed but not the disambiguation part anglicised. Perhaps I am being overly picky. In this case it's a {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}} anyway, and I've tagged it thus. Si Trew (talk) 20:22, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually a {{R from more specific geographic name}}. I wasn't aware that template and category existed. Si Trew (talk) 20:34, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Withdrawn by nominator. We'll try to consolitate the targets first, then return. (non-admin closure) by nominator, Si Trew (talk) 00:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure. The target is a DAB, but this could equally well go to Manasseh (disambiguation). Probably the two DABs could be combined (they're the same word in different forms) but even so, neither gives the word in this form. Nevertheless definitely the word is transliterated in this form, but we have a bit of an WP:XY. And my gsearch gives very few results in English, and those largely word-lists, so it might be WP:RFD#D8 too: most results are in French, although some are in Vietnamese (with French interposed). No links outside this discussion; stats down right now. Si Trew (talk) 20:07, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: There seems to be a lot of duplication and confusion around these names. Manasses (given name), Manasses, and Manasseh seem to cover essentially the same material. Manasses is templated as a disambiguation page but should probably be a set index like the other two. I think before we discuss any redirects, the articles need to be straightened out. Perhaps a member of WikiProject Anthroponymy could help out with merging them? — Gorthian (talk) 22:20, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Good idea, User:Gorthian. I'd seen those too but was trying to be brief. I agree, sort out the targets first. I'll withdraw this nom if that helps. Si Trew (talk) 23:07, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've left a note on the page over at anthroponymy. Withdrawing these two might be best until we can get it worked out. Thanks, Si. — Gorthian (talk) 00:40, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Withdrawn by nominator. We'll try to consolidate the targets first, then return. (non-admin closure) by nominator, Si Trew (talk) 00:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Eubot redirect. The target is (now) a DAB page listing several Mannasses but only one Manasse, Joseph S. Manasse, in its "See also". That being the case, I think that we should 'retarget it there.

Background: I can't see evidence of a relevant move, but this has come about as a back-formation from the redirect Manassê. Although "Manassê" is a variant of "Mannases" or "Mannaseh", its use in English seems very rare. We also have Manasses (given name), and I am not sure what value the DAB at Manasses is giving us that the given name article isn't. It's all a bit messy.

Dublin Harbour (Dáil Éireann constituency)[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) 17:01, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as misleading, WP:RFD#D2. This was a UK consituency during the time of the Dáil Éireann (Irish Republic) (1919–1922) but has never been a constituency of the current Dáil Éireann. The version with diacritics was an article until 12 October 2007, when User:BrownHairedGirl redirected it. I appreciate it is old but doesn't make it right, or a likely search term. The version without diacritics was created as a variant by Eubot.

Dublin Harbour also redirects to the same target, so these are {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}}, also. Too late, but I should have just moved the target over Dublin Harbour, but I've edited it by rcatting it. In any case, there may be a better target for Dublin Harbour, although I can't find one offhand. Si Trew (talk) 19:35, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dublin Harbour should either redirect to Dublin Port, or be a dab page between the port and this constituency. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:20, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have just converted[1] Dublin Harbour to a disambiguation page, and fixed[2] a misplaced incoming link. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:39, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You can choose whatever criteria you want. So can I: that's how we get consensus. Boldly changing a redirect to a DAB page while a discussion about it is in progress perhaps is jumping the gun. I am not going to get involved in Irish politics, but I'll let the discussion proceed in the usual manner, and be closed in the usual manner. I don't need to be bludgeoned into withdrawing it. You forgot to sign. Si Trew (talk) 00:54, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Si Trew Thanks for signing. I'm surprised that you don't want to address the WP:RFD#KEEP#1 issue. It looks fairly straightforward to me, and I don't see how asking you consider something which you appeared to have overlooked amounts to bludgeoning. As to not wanting to get involved in Irish politics, you chose to get involved when your nomination made assertions about Irish politics; I responded to that. Again, it's odd not to discuss issues raised when another assessment is offered; discussion is how we build consensus.
The Dublin Harbour redirect was not the subject of this nomination, so no gun was jumped. It is mentioned in the nom as a related issue, and two posts above you welcomed the change. All very odd. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:22, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The redirect of itself makes a statement about Irish politics, by redirecting a seemingly Irish redirect to a UK target. I refuse to be drawn into it. If it goes keep, so be it. I said of the change to a DAB "some good as come of it". You may have inferred of that, that no good would come of the rest, but you didn't infer that. Drop the stick and walk away. Si Trew (talk) 01:28, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There is no stick to drop. Simply a discussion which you opened, and in which you have been politely asked to respond to some issues arising from your nomination.
Yes, of course the redirect makes a statement about politics: it notes the fact that the constituencies established for the Westminster Parliament were used by Irish Republicans for elections to an independent parliament called Dáil Éireann.
So what is your objection to this redirect? Do you dispute that this happened? Or do you think it was wrong for people to have done it?
And if you "refuse to be drawn into it", why make a nomination on that basis? Very odd indeed. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:50, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Notification: WikiProject Ireland has been notified. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:27, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Philip Shanahan was elected to the Dublin Harbour constituency and sat in Dáil Éireann. It is quite possible someone someone knowing those facts might search for Dublin Harbour (Dáil Éireann constituency); in fact the pageviews tool shows low but regular usage. On the other hand, somebody not searching for that would have no reason ever to see it. Therefore it is a useful redirect with no potential to mislead. Note, by the way, that the First Dáil is part of the "current Dáil Éireann", per the article that the nominator linked to. Scolaire (talk) 00:27, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

This previously-deleted redirect is a nonsensical nickname usually used in jest to refer to the subject of the target article on pop culture forums. It has virtually no encyclopedic value and should likely be deleted again. Mmrsofgreen (talk) 07:32, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep when used as an exact phrase this seems to relate to either Christina Aguilera or a non-notable escape room in Santa Ana and the latter only with context. Someone seeing this without context and not knowing who is being referred to would quite plausibly look it up on Wikipedia and so they should be taken to the Christina Aguilera article. What matters for a redirect like this is whether this is a useful search term, not whether there should be encyclopaedic coverage. Thryduulf (talk) 07:44, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • The previous RfD noted that the redirect got vandalised quite a bit, but the answer to that is to (semi)protect the redirect not to delete it. It also noted it was not neutral, but WP:RNEUTRAL explains why that isn't relevant. Thryduulf (talk) 07:45, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'll rcat that as {{R from incorrect spelling}} (it was used in one article, Flying Finn (airline), where I've fixed it), but this one is probably pushing it too far... Delete.

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

I suspect this is WP:FORRED, because nothing in the target article mentions anything about Korean practices or affinities. Plus, Google Translate tells me that "의식동원" means "conscious mobilization" in English. So I have no idea if this is an acceptable redirect or not. — Gorthian (talk) 02:36, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 16:59, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm afraid Google Translate got this one wrong. The phrase 의식동원 is derived from Classical Chinese 醫食同源, literally "medicine [and] food [have] common source". As I wrote in the previous RfD, this redirect is correct and culturally relevant. Food therapy currently redirects to Chinese food therapy; at any rate the local variants of East Asian food therapy are a cultural continuum, not discrete concepts. Deryck C. 13:17, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks, Deryck Chan, for clearing up the translation. — Gorthian (talk) 23:13, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • ...and I've just figured out how Google Translate got what it got. 의식 can mean "consciousness" (cognate zh. 意識) and 동원 can mean "to mobilise people" (cognate zh. 動員). (I've cross-checked with ko.wp.) It's amazing that CJKV share ~90% of their abstract vocabulary (derived from Classical Chinese) so once you know 2-3 varieties (Standard Chinese, Cantonese and Japanese for me) you can guess the rest.

  • Delete WP:FORRED "의식동원" is Korean, not Chinese, while the target is about a Chinese concept, not Korean. If we have anything about Korean-specific food therapy, then Food therapy should be turned into an article instead of being a redirect. If anything about the Korean concepts of food therapy that are contiguous with the Chinese ones are available, then they should be added to make the redirect useful.

  • Disambiguate. If there are three plausible targets for "Caroline Scott" (the US first lady, the English novelist, the pageant winner), then a disambiguation page is appropriate. NewYorkActuary (talk) 11:07, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate. In addition to the three mentioned above, Scott's Bungalow also mentions a Caroline Scott and Francis Scott, Earl of Dalkeith had a daughter named Caroline. I don't think there's a primary topic. While Caroline Harrison gets the most page views, she's not typically known as Caroline Scott, so people typically won't use that to search for her. -- Tavix (talk) 21:57, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt this is a plausible search term, even if it were, the song would be the primary topic as seen overwhelmingly in sources, not sure if we need a hatnote on the song article, still suggest deletion as it may distract or mislead readers looking for the song. Also note weird capitalization. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 05:07, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Of course it is (how does Dawson's Creek fit into that, by the way?) but I think it's better go to to the exact-title-matched article (or section of one, anyway). People looking for the song are likely to search by its actual title, I Don't Want to Wait. We wouldn't otherwise keep a redirect from lyrics (WP:NOTLYRICS is pretty consistently applied to redirects) and I prefer to account for correct usages before considering erroneous ones.

It's a laptop for me on my, erm, laptop, running Win10 w/Chrome, and a keyboard & monitor on my Android (also Chrome). Emojipedia runs the gamut as usual, but none are different enough to propose a different target. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 22:48, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I remember in certain Linux desktop environments (KDE 4 if I recall correctly), the icon for the "My Computer" directory was a laptop if you were on a laptop and a monitor with a tower if you were on a desktop. On Mac OS, the icon was different for each different computer if you look closely at the icon on "About This Mac" or something like that. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 07:57, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Similar to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 August 15#🔫, though that ended in no consensus, I believe we should redirect these based on the definition (i.e. Unicode name) of the symbol.— Godsy (TALKCONT) 19:45, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

InterC.E.P.T. is a DC Comics organization that Nightshade was a former member of. This redirect doesn't work because InterC.E.P.T. has more than one member, and Nightshade was only one of them. I suggest a redlink if someone wished to create an article on the organization. MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:01, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
