Redirect created as a result of a file move of a fair use file, links updated. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 11:10, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Most of the time I'd advocate for keeping, since you can't update uses in old page revisions, but as it was nominated just a few days after upload, that's not a concern. Nyttend (talk) 00:44, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Segway Inc. , without implied prejudice to the opening of another discussion. (non-admin closure) – Uanfala 10:19, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Originally a PROD but it is a redirect so ... This is not the name of a product by Segway Inc. and Segway is a registered trademark of the company. As such I believe that it should be deleted. Segway do have a product called the Segway miniPro, but that is different. Mini Segway is already marked for deletion for the same reason. PRehse (talk) 10:50, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or Find better redirect People are looking for the minipro, or any kind of smaller scaled version of a Segway. What would be better is an article section detailing the miniPro like with the Segway PT. But news articles are comparing them to hoverboards so this may be where it will go until it is made clearer.

  • Probably the best answer then is to change the redirect for these to point to Segway Inc. (where the Segway miniPRO is mentioned), or we delete it. What we shouldn't do is misuse the the trademark as a generic term for hoverboard (as is is being used currently) especially not with a capital S (as is the case with these redirects). PeterEastern (talk) 05:24, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirecting to the company would be fine. I've already tagged both of those as incorrect name. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:04, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Tai Pī (province). (non-admin closure) feminist 16:41, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A search mainly returns results for Typee, so should it be targeted there or is this spelling not commonly attested and this R should be deleted. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 10:23, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article was originally a page about a non-notable/non-verifiable VR computer program. Because of these issues, it was redirected to a movie that lists the program's creator as a castmember, but that doesn't really make any sense. I think the redirect should simply be deleted. GretLomborg (talk) 06:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Reza Mohammady if retained Mohammady is an actor in that film who created the company. Also note that Mohammady's article is in AFD status. No idea if the company is mentioned in the film. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:01, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
AFD is here in case people are interested in chiming in there. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:40, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Reza's article has been deleted. So these redirects can be deleted. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:07, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure it makes sense to direct a three letter abbreviation to someone who happens to have those initials. There is no way that this is the only person who has these initials anyway. I've so far not found anything else notable with these letters - there are several non-notable companies, but not much else. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 03:10, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also noting that he does have a company called CHJ Designs so that could be created instead to link to Jones. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:17, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Deryck C. 10:02, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This abbreviation is not mentioned in the article. I'm unable to confirm if a broadcaster has ever used this call sign, which is complicated by the fact that CBC has a show called Q. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 03:07, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the CBC show Q is pretty famous in Canada but not styled as CBCQ. Useless redirect. Legacypac (talk) 06:56, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wrong month.Casprings (talk) 02:29, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipietime I don't understand what you're saying. A milemarker? Oiyarbepsy (talk) 12:58, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this would also imply other events of the format "Month Year Trump Tower Meeting" If there's only one notable event associated with Trump Tower meeting then keep one redirect for this. Otherwise it's WP:NOTDIARY AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:20, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There are all kinds of meetings at Trump tower every day. Why are we singling out one month when it is unclear what the meeting is about? Legacypac (talk) 09:30, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
