Tang (drink)"[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. Anarchyte (work | talk) 10:32, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely search term due to the quotation marks after the disambiguator. Steel1943 (talk) 21:20, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As recorded in the edit summary, there is a link from a blog on the Internet which erroneously includes the trailing doublequote, and the redirect was intended to deliver visitors from that blog to the right page on Wikipedia. If that is not a good reason for a redirect to exist, then please delete the redirect. Pat Conheady (talk) 11:13, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fuk[edit]

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. -- Tavix (talk) 22:39, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure as to whether a disambiguation is needed. I think we all know what this could be a misspelling of. --Nevéselbert 10:42, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine as a redirect to the airport, just like FUK. The misspelling of "Fuck" was added in 2010 and promptly reverted. — JFG talk 14:56, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Disambiguate as proposed. I've edited the draft disambiguation page. Deryck C. 13:26, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate per BD2412. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 19:58, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The caps version should still refer to the airport as the only notable usage. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 22:43, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Anthropogenic effect[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 No consensus, default to keep. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 02:43, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a follow-up to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2017 June 16#Anthropogenic behaviours. I would imagine if "behavio(u)r(s)" and "activity(ies)" are too vague, then "effect(s)" would also be. I do want to stress that the last discussion had a few "because Neelix" !votes, but Anthropogenic effects is NOT a Neelix redirect (although he did edit it). -- Tavix (talk) 18:13, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete both - because of what I said last time - these terms are grammatically incorrect. - Richard Cavell (talk) 14:18, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: about 240 real hits on google books for "anthropogenic effect", I've skimmed through the first 50 or so and they all seem to unambiguously be in the context of the human impact on the environment. – Uanfala 08:38, 2 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Anthropogenic effects as a redirect, Delete Anthropogenic effect. The same would apply to Anthropogenic impacts vs impact if it pops up somewhere. Atsme📞📧 18:50, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why keep the plural and not the singular? This can be tagged as incorrect name. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 21:31, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep both; harmless. A reader coming across this term in a book might want to look it up here, and we should at least point them somewhere educational. bd2412 T 03:32, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Ranjit Mangal Singh[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 already deleted by Wbm1058. Deryck C. 13:39, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect was created by a new user who wanted to create an article with the same name, now at Draft:Ranjit Mangal Singh.

I could not find a list index page that this might have been copied from, but none of the content here is correct. The Ranjit Singh link is to a different (historical) person than the modern-day entrepreneur and the See also section is all red links. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 05:11, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Suppress redirect and move out of the article space without leaving a redirect. Most likely, this should be moved into the "Draft:" namespace. If the name is to match the intended title in Draft:Ranjit Mangal Singh, the page should be moved to Draft:Ranjit Mangal Singh(name); however, I don't support that due to the lack of a space between the title and the disambiguator. In the page's current state, it looks like it should be moved to Draft:Ranjit Singh (disambiguation). Steel1943 (talk) 05:51, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete since Ranjit Singh (disambiguation) already exists. The nominated page seems to want to be that disambiguation page, but it's not, and I cannot decipher the page to be anything else. Steel1943 (talk) 13:12, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – Oh, I thought the best course would be to delete the redirect entirely. It was created by mistake or misunderstanding, there's no significant edit history, and it's just a technicality that it doesn't fall under one of the CSDs for redirects. The Ranjit Singh (disambiguation) page already exists]]. If the draft Draft:Ranjit Mangal Singh is accepted, it gets moved to article space exactly where this redirect is. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 06:02, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. per nom. There's no point moving this anywhere, as there's nothing to preserve: there's one unsourced line about the name, which should be covered at Ranjit, and one line that looks like an erroneous given-name-page entry, but that territory is already covered by Ranjit Singh (disambiguation) and in addition to the dab there can't be a given name article any more than there can be for names like "John Williams". – Uanfala 08:54, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. No other people with Mangal as middle name to dab. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 04:28, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
