  • Comment - #deltaairlines (with capitalized variations) is a Twitter hashtag that is getting some usage, partly in relation to a dog bite on a Delta plane 4 days ago. - Richard Cavell (talk) 10:27, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:CHEAP and Richardcavell. Thryduulf (talk) 11:41, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • ok, I've editied it to make clear it is the hashtag. But I would comment that we normally only {{R from hashtag}} when the tag appears in the target article (it does not in this case). Every possible hashtag would undoubtedly be WP:COSTLY. UnitedStatesian (talk) 12:03, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Every possible hashtag indeed would be costly, but we are not discussing every possible hashtag we're discussing this specific one. Thryduulf (talk) 13:46, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, – Uanfala 09:59, 25 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep - I'm wary about this, but I feel like redirects from hashtags do indeed make sense when they're used explicitly by reliable news sources, which appears to be the case here as stated above. One example by Arab News is here. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 01:20, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no one needs a this redirect to find the airline. It sets a bad precedent. Legacypac (talk) 01:54, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Richardcavell. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 04:44, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) Anarchyte (work | talk) 01:41, 2 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Is it better to keep the current target, or target to List of retired Atlantic hurricane names? Oiyarbepsy (talk) 00:46, 25 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Tropical cyclone naming provides the list of names currently being used in the Atlantic, while the List of retired Atlantic hurricane names is names that have been used in the Atlantic but were removed for being too deadly/destructive/other reasons.Jason Rees (talk) 01:23, 25 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The current target is much more pertinent to the redirected titles. The list of retired names is by no means at all a complete overview of Atlantic tropical cyclone names.--Jasper Deng (talk) 01:26, 25 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as it pertains to both North Atlantic, South Atlantic, and current ones. AngusWOOF (barksniff)
