- Milk snatcher → Margaret Thatcher (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Should be merged with Milk Snatcher. --Neve–selbert 23:25, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Err...but that also redirects to Margaret Thatcher. Incidentally the name Milk Snatcher relates to an incident that occurred while she was Education Secretary in the 1970s and was widely used in the UK. This Telegraph article tells you all you need to know. This is Paul (talk) 23:52, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- @This is Paul: I am totally familiar with the terminology, although I think that having two separate redirects differing in only capitalisation is unnecessary.--Neve–selbert 00:33, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to Education Act 1944 instead where it can be seen in context --Lenticel (talk) 06:58, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- If this is retargeted Milk Snatcher should be as well.--67.68.210.65 (talk) 19:13, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep I'll defer to my British friends if I'm wrong on this, but it looks like this was a nickname that stuck with her beyond the 1971 incident that originated it. There's precedent at RfD for retargeting to List of nicknames of Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom#Margaret Thatcher, where it's listed; I'd support that too. --BDD (talk) 18:56, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep, the current target explains it well so I see no need to retarget it. -- Tavix (talk) 03:26, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

September 2007 deaths[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 Retarget to Deaths in September 2007. Discussion doesn't seem necessary for this rather obvious retargeting option. GeoffreyT2000, I recommend to be WP:BOLD with changes/edits that are as uncontroversial, such as this one, in the future instead of starting a discussion. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 12:29, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- September 2007 deaths → Lists of deaths by year (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The current target does not actually list the deaths in this month. Deaths in September 2007 is a better target. See also Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 February 17#January 2014 deaths. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 23:02, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was delete with no prejudice against redirect re-creation should this inter-language pun is written about on the English Wikipedia. (Closing both entries in conjunction as they refer to the same pun. Deryck C. 17:36, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
我到河北省来[edit]
I have no idea what this means. Google Translate provides "I went to Hebei Province". Maybe a line from a Chinese Downfall parody? But it's not mentioned there, nor anything else having to do with China or Chinese. --BDD (talk) 20:43, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment It's explained on this Baidu page [1] ; it seems to be a Mandarin language pun; it appears a ZH.wiki zh:空耳 -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 06:48, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. I understand what it means, but delete as WP:FORRED that is not mentioned in the article. sst✈ 12:53, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Und doch habe ich allein[edit]
- Und doch habe ich allein → Downfall (2004 film)#Parodies (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This may be a line from Downfall used in its internet parodies, but it's hardly an important or well-remembered line in either context. It's not mentioned at all at the target article. --BDD (talk) 20:42, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - It's indeed neither a well-known nor important line in the parodies (same is true as well for the actual film scene). CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 08:17, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Florentine[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 move disambiguation page over redirect. Deryck C. 17:33, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- Florentine → Florentine biscuit (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Retarget to Florence. Redirect existing since 2003 was changed recently to point to the cookie, with the edit summary "clear primary usage". As Florence has given us many, many notable topics (type "florentine" in the search box and see what autocompletes) I strongly disagree that a Florentine biscuit is a WP:PRIMARYTARGET here. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 19:03, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Is this a British thing? The user who retargeted is Chiswick Chap,(ping) so maybe so. To my American ears, "Florentine" makes me think of spinach first, and then something associated with the city. Moving Florentine (disambiguation) over the redirect is an option if we think there's no primary topic. --BDD (talk) 20:50, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose: Well, Florentine means the food all over Europe, from Sweden to France certainly, not only in Britain, so if it was a matter of international spread and the largest number of countries, there'd be no contest. I note that googling "Florentine America" returns pictures of the cookies, exactly as I had expected, so the cookie usage is on BOTH sides of the Atlantic. I've never heard anyone call an inhabitant of Florence by this name, whatever they did in Shakespeare's time; they just say "people from Florence". The other possible meanings strike me as far behind (search engines throwing up remnants indeed of many obsolete and quaint historical usages), and I confess I never heard of its meaning anything to do with spinach at all. So I'm indeed surprised to be commenting here. I also can't see any difficulty with having Florentine (disambiguation) as a comfortable home for all the other meanings. Redirecting to Florence I consider simply silly: the two terms cover wildly different things. Chiswick Chap (talk) 21:23, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Careful, Google has generally gotten less reliable for geographic measures as it tries to customize results. Only two of the top 9 results are related to the cookie when I do the search. There are also a couple of spinach dishes, and some other disparate results. --BDD (talk) 16:31, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Move Florentine (disambiguation) over Florentine. Too many possible notable uses. I now want spinach ... the use that comes to my mind first. Steel1943 (talk) 21:36, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- This would work too. Strangely I didn't find the disambiguation page, or I might have suggested that. I didn't have any primary topic in mind for this, I just happened to be surprised when I clicked on a link describing someone from Florence in the middle ages and ended up on a page about a biscuit. And yes, I would now also like to have Eggs Florentine for dinner. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 22:02, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Move Florentine (disambiguation) to Florentine per Steel1943.—Godsy(TALKCONT) 02:07, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Replace with disambiguation page -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 06:52, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Move dab page to redirect per Steel --Lenticel (talk) 00:37, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- Move the dab over the redirect. This looks to be sufficiently ambiguous for a global encyclopedia. --BDD (talk) 18:51, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Move the dab over the redirect, per other demonym pages--Prisencolin (talk) 02:34, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
- Move dab page to redirect per above. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 22:12, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

- Castle of Montalegre → Montalegre Castle (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
no needd. Winterysteppe (talk) 17:15, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. Redirect points at the correct target and is harmless. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 19:04, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep WP:CHEAP -- it is a castle called Montalegre -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 06:53, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

2018-19 UEFA Europa League[edit]

- 2018-19 UEFA Europa League → UEFA Europa League (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I think this, even being a redirect, is WP:TOOSOON. UEFA current regulations end for the 2017-18 season and it is not even confirmed this season will be played (however very likely). Also no article currently links to it, so we dont have reason to keep it to avoid redlinks. Has been speedily deleted in September 2015. Qed237 (talk) 14:26, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. --BDD (talk) 20:45, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:TOOSOON. As above, no evidence that this will exist (UEFA could change the format/names after all). Joseph2302 (talk) 21:25, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - far too soon, and adds nothing as a redirect. GiantSnowman 09:54, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - While this obviously should exist at some point, I have to agree that it's WP:TOOSOON. Sir Sputnik (talk) 03:22, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - Despite the fact that redirects are WP:CHEAP, this one is far WP:TOOSOON, especially given that the regulations have not been published. — Jkudlick • t • c • s 09:28, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

- Neisha Pratt → Hong Kong women's national cricket team (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Pointless redirect – target contains no information on the subject. IgnorantArmies (talk) 09:15, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as not mentioned in the target article. As a sidenote, she's played for Hong Kong women's national cricket team previously, so could probably have an actual article written about her. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:52, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- Comment I'm now drafting an article about her at Draft:Neisha Pratt (she passes WP:NCRIC), so this redirect should definitely be deleted, to allow me to place the draft into article space. Joseph2302 (talk) 22:10, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Hinduism in Djibouti[edit]

Delete, this is a non-topic. There isn't anything noteworthy to say about Hinduism in Djibouti, so someone searching for this topic won't learn anything about it. -- Tavix (talk) 04:35, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as per nom CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 08:22, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

- Do You Love Me (Ariana Grande song) → Ariana Grande (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Unreleased song, doesn't appear in any of her albums, and isn't mentioned at Ariana Grande or List of songs recorded by Ariana Grande. Without a place that gives information on the song, there's no point in having the redirect. -- Tavix (talk) 03:54, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

List of legendary Pokémon[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.
No such list exists at the target. The best retargeting option would be Gameplay of Pokémon#Legendary Pokémon, but that section doesn't have a list; Legendary Pokémon already redirects to the aforementioned section, so a "List of..." redirect targeting there without an actual list being in the section could be misleading.
