  • Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. This does exist as a website and name in use, but Islam doesn't mention it. No internal links, hits well below noise level (5 in 90 days). Si Trew (talk) 15:12, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete — it is nonsense. Page created by sporadic editor with ±170 edits in 10 years. There are two entries in the Wiktionary (uppercase/ lower case). Of the creators, one has been blocked, of the other it says "Adding nonsense/gibberish: long history of at worst partisan, or at best absolutely clueless editing, which climaxed in in Category:English words prefixed with genital-)". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rui Gabriel Correia (talk • contribs) 10:29, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Below the redirect is the text "This is to correct an error made by Kris Z of Aurora, ON, Canada." which was added by the creator about two weeks after its creation on 18 March 2013. I have no idea what error that might be, but maybe the creator User:Vinceouca can explain. I would say Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. Si Trew (talk) 14:44, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:10, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete probably better deleted due to redirect's history and as unlikely synonym. --Lenticel (talk) 00:36, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Although this technically qualifies for CSD R2, JJBers has removed the CSD tag, so now RfD is needed as deletion becomes controversial. A recent move of the target page made Xqbot fix the double redirect. GeoffreyT2000 (talk, contribs) 14:34, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as WP:XNR. It can be recreated when the draft is moved into article space (at this title or elsewhere). Si Trew (talk) 14:39, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, the CSD tag says to wait a day or two, it had been about 6 hours since the move. I still feel it needs to be deleted.—JJBers|talk 16:05, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • @JJBers: That tag says "consider waiting a day or two", not that it's a requirement. Either way, since you have vocalized a "delete" opinion in this discussion and since you technically created the page, I'll consider that authorization to tag the redirect for speedy deletion criterion G7, and will do so here shortly.

Delete, not notable, there is no migration of Nigerians to Uruguay, redirect was created after an editor found an article about four Nigerians arriving in that country Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 14:08, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. The target discusses Uruguayans of African descent (primarily those having slave ancestors), not Nigerians who happen to live in Uruguay. Si Trew (talk) 14:14, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, I will write a proper article. As the trend of African immigration to South America keeps growing, there is a Nigerian presence in Uruguay. --Fadesga (talk) 14:27, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The article that was cited The articl is about four Nigerians who arrived in Uruguay, one, a "monarch" from a place that could not be found, visiting the country for business purposes; two stow-aways who applied for asylum and were deported, and a lost soul who paid money to be taken to the US but was tricked into disembarking in Uruguay. None was migrating to Uruguay. Even if there was such a grwing trend of African migrants to South America, are we going to end up with 30, 40, redirects (Nigerians, Malians, Tanzanians, Senegalese, etc.) multiplied by the number of countries they are going to, (Nigerians to Colombia, Brazil, Panama, Peru, etc.)? Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 14:52, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
We have Category:Nigerian expatriates (and subcats including Category:Nigerian expatriates in Uruguay, and similar for Category:Malian expatriates in Hungary, and so forth. I don't think we need to duplicate that by by making redirects for all of them. We could retarget this as a WP:XNR to the category (since categories are in reader space).

Holiday decorations[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. The rough consensus is that this title is too vague. Deryck C. 12:57, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm inclined to retarget this to Christmas decoration but am hesitant to do so, because Christmas is not the only holiday for which people decorate things, or are decorated themselves. However, I couldn't find anything better at the DAB at decoration. (Incidentally, holiday decoration is red.) Si Trew (talk) 12:49, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as vague WP:XY AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:14, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak retarget per nom. There are an awful lot of holidays which are not Christmas for which there are traditional decorations, although this seems to be the only one for which we have a separate article. If there were others then perhaps we could turn this into a set index, but I haven't been able to find any by very quickly searching. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 21:34, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as vague. From Holiday:

    The word holiday has differing connotations in different regions. In the United States the word is used exclusively to refer to the nationally, religiously or culturally observed day(s) of rest or celebration, or the events themselves, whereas in the U.K. and other Commonwealth nations, the word may refer to the period of time where leave from one’s duties has been agreed, and is used as a synonym to the US preferred vacation.

(emphasis added). I'd go further: in UK "holiday" without qualification means "vacation" (a U.S. word, which as a Brit I understand but do not use), to be distinguished from e.g. "Christmas holiday" and "bank holiday". Narky Blert (talk) 02:02, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cancelled Qatari general election, 2013[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 all except Qatari legislative election, 2013. There is no consensus on (1), (4), (5) and consensus to delete on (2), (3). Since (1)-(4) were the result of redirects left behind by page moves made in violation of a ban, (1), (4) default to delete without prejudice against recreation by editors in good standing, whereas (5) defaults to keep because it was the original title of the article. Deryck C. 17:49, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty sure that the next Qatar election isn't happening in 2013 since it's now 2016, nor is a canceled election in 2013 going to be the next election. Steel1943 (talk) 02:13, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest renaming this to Cancelled Qatari general election, 2013 and having it focus on the cancelled event. The next one can be redlinked until details are provided heading into 2019. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:31, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That suggestion was rejected in an RM on the article's talk page. Number 57 15:11, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It was rejected because it was in a postponed status at the time of the RM which was 2014 and it was questioned whether the article should even exist (possible AFD?). That it has been several years since the postponement with no new election scheduled is just opening the article to WP:CRYSTAL. Renaming to Cancelled Qatari general election, 2013 would keep it as a stub but complete. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:43, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the first one and the last two, since the target does deal with how the 2013 Qatari election was delayed. Delete the others for being implausible searches. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:23, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Deryck C. 12:08, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete indefinitly as implausible typo. If someone's looking for the election they would not be struggling with the spelling of that word, but rather focus on Qatar/Qatari or cancelled/canceled. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:18, 16 November 2016 (UTC) updated 16:38, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep first one and last two per Patar knight, delete the others. The general election scheduled in Qatar for 2013 is still going to happen (it's still the same election) but it was postponed to 2016, then postponed again to 2019; the target is the article which discusses this election and its postponements. We do not have and are not likely to ever have a separate article for this bit of procedural wrangling, it's all part of the same event. "Cancelled" is incorrect but it is a plausible error (whether you think it should be "canceled" or whether you rightly observe that the election was not cancel[l]ed but postponed). Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 21:43, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Also note that these could all go to G5 speedy deletion: they're all redirects left from a sockpuppet's undiscussed page moves. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 21:45, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was No consensus, default to keep (non-admin closure). - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 00:52, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are no 2014 films by this name; the film project was cancelled. -- Tavix (talk) 21:41, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I've noted the section redirect above. There's relevant information there, as well as some content at The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones#Canceled sequels that could be duplicated there. There will probably never be anything more to say about the topic, but that is where we'd expect it to go. --BDD (talk) 16:47, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I understand that, but it's not a 2014 film. WP:NCFILM dictates that the year represents the year of release, and it was never released. I didn't nominate The Mortal Instruments: City of Ashes (film), which is a more accurate redirect that should catch anyone looking for this information. -- Tavix (talk) 18:09, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      Both of those sections only discuss it as a potential 2014 film, though. If the year were just speculation on the part of an editor, or signs pointing to any other year of release, I think that would be a stronger argument. --BDD (talk) 19:30, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per BDD, given that there is sourced information available about plans to release the film in 2014. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 19:55, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

More obscure, unlikely, vague, alien, Neelix-esque, Neelixish terms, Christmas-themed what? - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 08:05, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Can I take a second to point out the irony of using made-up words like "Neelix-esque" and "Neelixish"? The Neelix redirects have largely been taken care of, I don't see why we need to continue the hysteria surrounding his name. It's especially problematic if a non-regular of RfD comes in here, they might think we're speaking an alien language. More to the point, our article on Christmas traditions might be "close enough" for at least one or two of these. -- Tavix (talk) 15:46, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Tavix: It was I who started this business, and I can't think of a better way to call redirects by this. Perhaps Neelix already has a certain degree of bad reputation attached to his name, I see where you're coming from, but I only mean this lightheartedly. There is already quite a lot of alien tongue spoken at RfD (FORRED, etc). I have had to explain RFOREIGN a couple of times already, I reaffirm I am only using those terms lightheartedly, now I'm beginning to wonder what are we to do should Neelix begin editing again soon. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 20:51, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • Its all in good nature, the last bit I included solely for the wordplay (Neelix is a character in Star Trek, and I linked to Klingon). Cheers, -- Tavix (talk) 20:53, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Tavix:Yes, yes, I remember now, Legacypac nominated the article for deletion and it was closed a couple of days later for it was found out that the nomination had to do with the case of the redirects, I don't know if the nomination was tongue-in-cheek or not, but a valid deletion argument wwwas presented, so maybe just coincidence. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 20:58, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Not mentioned in the target. Leet has no special affinity for Korean, either, making this a WP:FORRED case. (As I understand it, "kekeke" is a transliteration of the Korean, and is basically the same as English's "hahaha".) Delete. — Gorthian (talk) 01:50, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

      • Sorry about that. Yeah, delete those too. There are about 150 redirects to Leet, many of them in Leetspeak. I am not sure that we should have all of those, really, but I can't be bothered to argue each individually. Si Trew (talk) 02:10, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep [Retarget per Travix (below)] "kekeke" is a leet-spek term, and it is Korean, therefore FORRED does not apply. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 14:55, 16 November 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

This book has been translated into dozens of languages. There used to be a list of the translations in the article but, on the way to FA status, the decision was made to delete that section. This is the only foreign-language redirect to the article and, since the book has no special meaning or affinity for Korean, it should be deleted per WP:FORRED. — Gorthian (talk) 01:38, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as above. Si Trew (talk) 01:45, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep
    • Bad practice to relist something closed as no-consensus a few days ago. [Closed as "Trainwreck".]
    • It's a redirect, it has existed for some time, it does no harm. The guideline WP:R#HARMFUL says we should not delete.
    • It's useful for someone who has the title, and wants to know more about the book.
    • It's not a "vocabulary translation" like "dog" or "cat".
    • FORRED is an essay - the opinion of some editors, with which other editors disagree.
    • The fact that other translations don't have redirects is irrelevant - an "other stuff doesn't exist" argument by which the whole of Wikipedia would vanish.

@Rich Farmbrough: Hi, I'm the one who closed the previous discussion. If you actually read my closing statement, I specifically encouraged an individual discussion of these redirects. Think of it as an unbundled relist. -- Tavix (talk) 15:49, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, as far as it goes. The waste of time involved in debating obviously non-harmful and non-new redirects is appalling though. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:44, 16 November 2016 (UTC).[reply]
Tavix@} actually seems to be the third listing for this redirect. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 05:34, 19 November 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Sunniness[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Sunlight. --BDD (talk) 05:43, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure about that (were it retargeted)... the DAB at sunny] doesn't really have any entries beyond sunlight that could be referred to as having sunniness. Si Trew (talk) 12:32, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

African Negro[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 1-2 and 13-14, but re-refine the section redirect to Black people#Africa, and retarget the rest to Negro. I do note that Negro does not use "African Negro", "Negro African", or any of their variants, so I'm tagging them with {{R without mention}}. IMO, one-to-one synonyms are one of the best examples of a legitimate {{R without mention}}. I do recommend some explanation in the article if the term signifies anything beyond "Negro" itself. --BDD (talk) 05:28, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Negro-African, is very, is much a, real term that gets widely used, so it should go to the most relevant page. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 14:33, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
