The result of the discussion was keep. -- Tavix (talk) 20:27, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why does this page exist anymore? Google search for the phrase shows the Wikitionary's page first. If any purpose, it is confusing. Doesn't belong on Wikipedia. RoCo(talk) 15:58, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as it meets the criteria for wiktionary soft redirects at Template:wi: there's no relevant wikipedia page (excluding TV Tropes, but that doesn't seem redirect-worthy), there is a relevant wiktionary entry and users are searching for it on wikipedia (on average 5 hits a day). – Uanfala (talk) 16:15, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Uanfala. Google is not the only way people search. Thryduulf (talk) 18:39, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I previously nominated this article for deletion and the outcome was this redirect. Vectro (talk) 02:17, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment YMMV is also a {{wiktionary redirect}}, and the nominator User:Rollingcontributor or others may wish to add it to this nomination. (The expression to mean, if I may paraphrase, "You may not think the same as I", is not very WP:WORLDWIDE, and I guess there is some mileage in actually making an article about where this expression comes from, which is more than Wiktionary can do: I presume it was some required strapline for car adverts in the U.S. at some time, but it is very much an Americanism that is not understood well in the UK at least.)

The result of the discussion was no consensus. -- Tavix (talk) 20:18, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned file redirect. File was moved over three years ago. The name is not a plausible search term for the target. Safiel (talk) 17:27, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment this has been getting regular hits all the way through last year very recently suggesting that either it's linked from somewhere externally or was only orphaned very recently. I don't think that this is an implausible search term for the logo of an organisation known as PVV. Thryduulf (talk) 17:36, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note The orphaning I believe occurred recently. I believe another user recently updated any links that pointed to this redirect. Safiel (talk) 18:33, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Create Commons:File:Logo PVV.png on Commons as a redirect to Commons:File:Name.jpg, then delete this redirect per {{Db-redircom}}. The acronym "PVV" is obviously ambiguous, and this is a method to fix the ambiguity issue. Steel1943 (talk) 17:48, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The instructions for moving a file state, "After moving the file, please replace all uses of the old file link with the new one.", hence all file redirects should be orphaned. The guidance concerning file redirects states, "As when a page is moved, a redirect is left when moving files. In most cases the file redirect should remain on the original page, except if the original name falls under one of the revision deletion criteria (purely disruptive, grossly insulting, privacy breaching, etc.) or shadows a file on Commons."; they shouldn't be suppressed unless they meet one of the criteria for speedy deletion. This means that there are many redirects in existence that are no different than this one (I create them regularly when renaming files), hence I see no reason to delete this one in particular. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 12:20, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Media bias. -- Tavix (talk) 00:15, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This term is not restricted to the United States (e.g. [1] [2]). - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 08:09, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, so do Progressive bias, Conservative media, Conservative media bias (and others that are basically synonymous with "media bias" so are OK by me.) There are a couple of others such as Media-bias which are harmless (but annoying) clutter. News coverage is a bit worrying, I am not sure that should go straight to media bias, will list separately.

The result of the discussion was speedy deleted, WP:R3, by Alexf (talk · contribs). -- Tavix (talk) 20:40, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Overly long (and inaccurate) redirect to Pi. By this point, it might be worth blocking creation of all titles starting with "3.14159", because there's little to no reason for someone to search beyond the fifth decimal place if they're looking for pi.  ONR  (talk)  05:39, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
