useless Neelix redirect DGG ( talk ) 22:26, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I combined these two entries; I can't imagine why we'd want to keep one and delete the other, as they're so close that they ought to be handled together. Nyttend (talk) 22:29, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete cavalcaded unlikely link term used in the prose. Articles will almost always mention cavalcade as a noun and not as a verb. Some news articles mention cavalcading, but not the past tense. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:25, 18 July 2016 (UTC) updated 15:47, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I don't think I have ever heard of either one. Montanabw(talk) 04:32, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete implausible search term. Tazerdadog (talk) 07:19, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep both as word forms of the target. Just becaue it's an relatively obscure word does not mean that word form redirects to it should be deleted. The past tense does get use in reliable sources. [1], [2] ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 15:09, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dangerous Women[edit]

The result of the discussion was retargeted to Dangerous Woman per nom. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 00:34, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirecting the base title to a disambiguated title does not make sense. Propose retargeting to Dangerous Woman, currently a disambiguation page which covers the three topics named "Dangerous Women". SSTflyer 14:06, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. Base names shouldn't redirect to article titles, and there's no indication this one's the primary topic.Cúchullain t/c 14:14, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @SSTflyer: Is there a reason you didn't do this WP:BOLDly? This seems obvious to me... -- Tavix (talk) 21:29, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • An RFD discussion may lead to another outcome, such as having a disambiguation page at Dangerous Women instead of a redirect to another disambiguation page. Also, since I started an RM at an article about a topic named "Dangerous Woman", retargeting this boldly may be seen as WP:INVOLVED editing. SSTflyer 02:38, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
  • Alright, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation. -- Tavix (talk) 20:45, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Highly implausible redirect left from page move Tazerdadog (talk) 08:24, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nominator. The target didn't invent anything with this proper name, and there's no other Brilliant Idea worth a redirect at the moment either (we don't have any article about the film production company Brilliant Idea Group which is mentioned in a few articles). 210.6.254.106 (talk) 09:00, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kingsport Police Department (Tennessee)[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. -- Tavix (talk) 22:55, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessarily specific redirect - we don't have any other redirs for a Kingsport Police Department in any other state, and the title we have is also a redir to the same target. MSJapan (talk) 01:28, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as it takes readers who use this redirect (36 in the last 90 days, which is far from a trivial number) directly to the section about the police department in Kingsport, Tennessee. Thryduulf (talk) 10:14, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep. No policy-compliant reason for deletion has been given in the nomination and being 'unnecessary' is never a ground for deletion of a redirect. Taking account of WP:RFD#HARMFUL, deletion could be harmful and has no benefit. Just Chilling (talk) 22:59, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - As stated above, the page describes specific details about said police department. This redirect is helpful. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 09:20, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
