June 22[edit]
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on June 22, 2017.
Rockstar Films[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. (non-admin closure) Anarchyte (work | talk) 06:43, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Rockstar Films → Rockstar Games (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete, unnotable trademark registration. There are also trademarks for "Rockstar East", "Rockstar South", "Rockstar West" in parallel to the actually-existing Rockstar North, but we don'T have redirects for these either. Lordtobi (✉) 19:12, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. 206 views last year, linked from The Football Factory (film). They've released at least five films and they seem to be primarily referred to as "Rockstar" rather than "Rockstar Games", so "Rockstar Films" seems completely plausible to me. Thryduulf (talk) 07:20, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - there are at least three different "Rockstar Films" channels on YouTube, all of seem like amateur operations, independent of Rockstar Games. imdb.com lists professional productions by Rockscar Films and Rockstarz Films. I'm not sure whether Rockstar Games has ever published under the trademark "Rockstar Films", but people will search for it, and if they do, the relevant information that we have for them is at Rockstar Games.. - Richard Cavell (talk) 21:05, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- But, if people are searching for the specific channels on YouTube or any of those from IMDb, why would you think they are looking for Rockstar Games? Also, to answer your question, Rockstar has not released any films under that label (they have, though, released films as simply "Rockstar Games"). P.S.: I have updated your YouTube link to list only channels that quote this name. Lordtobi (✉) 21:10, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

- Keep primary topic, plus it was a registered as a trademark in 2010. [1] There it says RockstarFilms.com and Rockstarfilms.net were claimed, and those websites still redirect to Rockstar Games. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:37, 23 June 2017 (UTC)

Spherical Worlds[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 for either deleting or keeping it as a redirect, defaulting to restoring the article. Any further discussion should hapen at WP:AFD as the main issue is the notability of the topic.(non-admin closure) – Uanfala 09:36, 8 July 2017 (UTC)
- Spherical Worlds → Rockstar Vienna (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
List entry where no further information exists apart from publisher, year, platforms. No other such redirect exists for Rockstar North and as such should probably be deleted. Lordtobi (✉) 19:09, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Restore article without prejudice to AfD. If AfD determines that it is not notable then a redirect to the list entry is exactly what we should have. Thryduulf (talk) 07:22, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - I also think deletion is the right call. This doesn't seem to be notable even in the limited context of looking specifically at the company. It's a minor release that's hard to find well-sourced information about. (No clue if the game itself is fun or not, although the name alone seems to make it 'not my thing'.)

- Pinging Cunard who is good at rescuing marginally notable topics. Do you think this topic is worth restoring as an article? Deryck C. 16:54, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for letting me know Deryck Chan (talk · contribs). I have commented below. Cunard (talk) 18:32, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
- Restore article. Here are three reviews I found about the game:
- Stroud, David (March 2000). "Active Reviews: Spherical Worlds". Amiga Active. No. 6. Archived from the original (PDF) on 2017-07-04. Retrieved 2017-07-04.
The review notes:
Spherical Worlds, as the name doesn’t imply, is a two-dimensional adventure in which you take control of a spherical droid whose mission it is to roam the various sectors of a space station. Quite why isn’t clear - there are no printed instructions, and the only “readme” included on the CD merely talks of 68040 data caches and other technical gubbins. There is a brief animated intro to the game, but it doesn’t really help to explain matters, so getting stuck in is the order of the day.
...
There’s not much in Spherical Worlds to get you hooked - yes, you can upgrade your weapons and you get to do all sorts of exciting things like use teleports and collect keys - but the graphics are small and uneventful, as is the gameplay. It’s okay in a sub Alien Breed 1 and 2 sort of way, and there are a few marginally distracting moments, but it doesn’t hold your attention for long.

The article notes:
From Google Translate:Primo (e ultimo almeno in campo Amiga) lavoro di un gruppo di croati riconoscibili dal nome dei 4-Matted, Spherical Worlds è prodotto dalla Neo Software allo scadere del 1996. Questo gioco riporta sui nostri monitor l’azione vecchia e per certi versi stantia dei gloriosi AlienBreed con visuale a volo d’uccello, rivelandosi però un’interessante novità, portando una leggera ventata d’aria fresca ad un concetto di gioco accumunabile anche all’ancor più anziano Gauntlet.
...
Esempio perfetto di programmazione pulita, questo Spherical Worlds è manifesto di una progettazione studiata a puntino atta al solo divertimento dell’utente che ne usufruisce. Povero dal lato grafico/sonoro, ribatte con una giocabilità geniale e priva di difetti. Consigliato soprattutto a chi a casa possiede un vero Amiga, magari proprio la vecchia 500 cui il gioco è più dedicato, vedrete che i dischetti rimarranno inseriti nel drive finché la nave aliena non sarà praticamente distrutta. Grafica o giocabilità? Immagine o sostanza? Voi da che parte state?
The author, Maurizio Tirone, is listed as a staff member on Retrogaming History's "Staff" page, which also lists an editor, Gianluca "musehead" Santilio, indicating there is editorial oversight.First (and last at least in the Amiga field) work of a group of recognizable 4-Matted Croatian names, Spherical Worlds is produced by the Neo Software at the end of 1996. This game reports on our monitors the old and in some respects Of the glorious AlienBreed with a bird's eye view, revealing an interesting novelty, bringing a slight breath of fresh air to a concept of gameplay, even to the oldest Gauntlet anchor.
...
Perfect example of clean programming, this Spherical Worlds is a design of a dot designed for the fun of the user who uses it. Poor on the graphic / sound side, replicates with a brilliant playfulness and no defects. At home owns a true Amiga, maybe the old 500 game where the game is more dedicated, you will see that the floppy disks will remain in the drive until the alien ship is practically destroyed, graphics or playability, image or substance, what are you from?
- Compton, Jason (1996). "Review: Spherical Worlds". Amiga Report. Vol. 4, no. 10. Archived from the original on 2017-07-04. Retrieved 2017-07-04.
The article notes:
From http://www.amigareport.com/:Enter Spherical Worlds, from the 4Matted development team, produced by NEO of Austria.
...
Graphically, the game is not a stunning tour-de-force but the action is at least very crisp. Music and sound is acceptable. The game is not AGA-enhanced but at the very least seems to be compatible on just about any configuration you can throw at it (no problems whatsoever installing to hard drive and playing off of 040 machines). It even works on the Cyberstorm 1260, providing you disable the special 060 caches.
...
My only complaints are few. The control system may be clumsy for a reason, but it makes getting started very difficult. Having only three lives is pretty harsh considering you can easily lose them all before reaching the third level, just by falling to your death around various corners. But Spherical Worlds is a job well done.
This establishes that the magazine had editorial oversight.Amiga Report Magazine was published between March 1993 and April 1998. As one of the first regularly-published online magazines, it broke new ground for the information revolution to come in the Internet age.
Amiga Report published over 100 issues, overseen by three editors. The first, Robert Glover, modeled the publication after the long-running Atari-focused STReport, and quickly migrated the magazine from a text format to the pioneering AmigaGuide hypertext language. As Commodore struggled and the Amiga commercial market deteriorated in early 1994, Glover handed off the magazine to assistant editor Robert Niles. Niles, along with regular contributor Jason Compton, used Amiga Report as a platform to update Amiga users on the Commodore bankruptcy proceedings. Compton became the third and final editor in late 1994.

Deep Silver Vienna[edit]

- Deep Silver Vienna → Rockstar Vienna (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Deep Silver Vienna is a later name of Games that Matter Productions, the most notable successor of Rockstar Vienna, but neither title is directly realted to Rockstar Vienna and no significant information is included in the article. Delete. Lordtobi (✉) 19:08, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment there was plenty of information in the target article about Deep Silver Vienna, until it was removed in October by the nominator with the summary "Heavy cleanup" [2]. There is no discussion related to this, so I'm tempted to say "restore content and keep" but I'll await any reasons not to. Thryduulf (talk) 07:26, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Thryduulf: Withunder in that heavy cleanup was removal of uncited material, which covered everything of Deep Silver Vienna. As stated above a successor to the company was Games that Matter Productions, which was acquired and renamed Deep Silver Vienna, however, the latter part has nothing to do anymore with Rockstar Vienna, wherefore we shouldn't redirect it there. If was that notable, we could make a new article out of it. The foundation of Games that Matter Productions itself, which was also sourced before, is still in the article with the same source and as such covered in the infobox.

- Worst team ever → 2008 Detroit Lions season (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] PRehse (talk) 08:57, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Delete - because it's not clear where this redirect should go. There are sources for the 2008 Detroit Lions being the worst team in NFL history, so it's not vandalism. - Richard Cavell (talk) 12:03, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete and salt: Wait until other internet news coverage show up. KGirlTrucker81 huh? what I've been doing 16:54, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was Speedy Delete. BLP violation, even if such a redirect was plausible, BLP would take precedence and it is not appropriate to have such a redirect on the project. Nick (talk) 20:22, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Fat Granny Shaggar → Wayne Rooney (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] PRehse (talk) 08:55, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - the chant "You're just a fat granny shagger" has existed for years and is specific to Wayne Rooney. This is a plausible misspelling of it. See here for its origin. - Richard Cavell (talk) 12:20, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Conditional Move to Fat Granny Shagger and delete the Shaggar version. Add non-neutral name. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:03, 22 June 2017 (UTC) updated 16:53, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Strong conditional delete. This is a WP:BLP, a topic area where Wikipedia is understandably strict with sourcing. If this redirect is to be kept, there will need to be mention of the nickname at the target with a reliable source. Until then, deletion is the best course of action (and this really should be a WP:G10 deletion). I also oppose moving around redirects that weren't clearly created in error. If NHL49 wanted the redirect to be Fat Granny Shagger, they would have created the redirect at that title. If the WP:BLP concern can be satisfied, creating Fat Granny Shagger should be a separate action left to editorial discretion. -- Tavix (talk) 16:25, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

- Disambiguate Music, Musics (album), Musics (magazine). - Richard Cavell (talk) 12:24, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
- Dab Those looking for Musics are looking for media that are titled as such. Its use as a plural is not feasible as music is a common word and would be WP:OVERLINKING. Compare Suns. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:54, 22 June 2017 (UTC) updated 17:32, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
