The result of the discussion was delete. Unopposed. -- Tavix (talk) 17:52, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not worth keeping due to the paren error after the year in the title. (This deletion may be uncontroversial, but this redirect has several edits.) Steel1943 (talk) 23:34, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) Uanfala (talk) 12:13, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Varlakov is a last name that could belong to anyone now or in the future-- not just the one person it currently redirects to. Seeking deletion. HapHaxion (talk - contribs) 20:12, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is a standard {{R from surname}}, used when there's only one notable person with a certain surname. If an article is created for another person with the surname, then an anthroponymy set index can be created to list people with the name. -- Tavix (talk) 20:19, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Tavix. {{R from surname}} is also used when one person with the surname is the primary topic (e.g. Putin) and a hatnote is used to link to other people (directly or via a set index). Thryduulf (talk) 21:02, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is zero reason for these redirects to go in different directions. Mr. Guye (talk) 19:10, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was create disambiguation page. (non-admin closure) Uanfala (talk) 12:05, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This album article was apparently originally created at the wrong name in error. Don't think this redirect is useful. (Or alternately it should go to Keep It Right There generally.) Calliopejen1 (talk) 18:23, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Super Bowl LVI[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. Defaulting to Super Bowl as a target. I hope the "no consensus" closure isn't taken to mean that another discussion is needed, as the issue will become moot once an article becomes warranted. (non-admin closure) Uanfala (talk) 13:14, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

WP:TOOSOON. There's nothing significant to say about this event so far in the future, so it's best to leave it red until there is. -- Tavix (talk) 17:01, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Looking at google results there is actually quite a bit of speculation about the 2022 Superbowl already (not surprising as the host venuefor the game up to Superbowl LV in 2021 has been decided). I don't know that there is enough to write an article yet, but until there is or someone writes a general article about future Superbowls, there is no suitable target I can find. Thryduulf (talk) 22:45, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'll not stand in the way of retargetting this to Super Bowl for the reasons given below. A more specific target would be much better but there doesn't seem to be one. Thryduulf (talk) 11:25, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Redirect to Super Bowl, depending on what the crystal allows for. It doesn't make sense to redirect to the champions page. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 23:52, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Super Bowl. It's the first future Super Bowl that doesn't yet have an article, and there's no reason for it to have an article yet, but it's a plausible search term. That's what's typically done for future competitions when there's not enough information to make an article yet, especially when we have articles on all instances of the competition prior to that one.

West–Central Canadian English[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 retarget to Canadian raising as the most plausible outcome, taking all comments into account. Deryck C. 09:52, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect targets Canadian English#Standard Canadian English. It was once an article that was redirected/merged into Canadian English and later refined to its current target.

But why that section? What is in the section that warrants this? When I searched the page (Ctrl-F) for "west-central", I came to Canadian English#Canadian raising where it says that Canadian raising is the most notable feature of Canadian English, and that Canadian raising is most prominent in central and west-central Canada. I believe this redirect should be targeted towards Canadian raising. Mr. Guye (talk) 16:12, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget as proposed. Makes sense, could have done so boldly. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:42, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget as proposed. I agree entirely with Ivanvector. Thryduulf (talk) 22:49, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nominator's comment: @Ivanvector:,Thryduulf The reason why I wasn't bold was because I'm sure that Canadian raising isn't all there is to this accent. But it is the most distinctive thing about the accent.--Mr. Guye (talk) 22:21, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Restore article. I think it was a well put-together article. There were some under-referenced areas, but I don't understand why it was redirected, especially because it was done without any rationale. My concern about the proposed target is that while Canadian Raising is perhaps the most notable feature of this dialect, it's not the only notable feature, so it may be confusing for some wondering how they ended up where they did without much explanation. -- Tavix (talk) 14:34, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Maybe we should hear the opinion of Wolfdog, who performed the merge in 2015. – Uanfala (talk) 20:13, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. I redirected because there is no "Western-Central Canadian English" in any source I found and what that term refers to seems to be easily encapsulated by what William Labov, Charles Boberg, and others have called "Standard Canadian English" (i.e., the English fairly homogeneously used by Canadians west of Quebec). Obviously, if my vote counts for anything in this type of discussion (I'm not ever really up-to-date on small-scale WP policy), I would Retarget as proposed I would Keep the status quo. Even if the article were restored and separated from the rest of Canadian English, it should be under the name actually used by linguists (and probably nonexperts as well): Standard Canadian English. P.S. The Atlas of North American English also names an even more specific subset of this geographic dialect area: Inland Canadian English. Wolfdog (talk) 21:00, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be fine with a restoration and renaming to "Standard Canadian English". The Standard Canadian English section of Canadian English seems to be a bit undue and I could easily see a couple sub-sections split out and integrated with the restored-and-renamed article. -- Tavix (talk) 21:07, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hmm. I do think there's consensus to retarget here, but that could be a big WP:SURPRISE since nothing like "West-Central Canadian" is mentioned at Canadian raising. I'm always hesitant to close an RfD with a result that feels like it's just going to come back to RfD at some point. Solutions? --BDD (talk) 16:48, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Restoring the underlying article would solve that problem. -- Tavix (talk) 16:56, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The consensus is to retarget, so that's what should be done. I don't think it'll be much of a surprise. How many people will be looking for "Western-Central Canadian English" anyway (since it's neither a colloquial nor academic term)? I certainly don't agree to restoring the underlying article, at least not under that name. Wolfdog (talk) 17:22, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's why I mentioned that the name should be changed to "Standard Canadian English" after restoration. -- Tavix (talk) 17:26, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Target holds no information on this item, other than a mention. Lordtobi () 10:44, 12 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete despite being mentioned in the article as a CEO, Jagex article does not have any biographical information to build upon concerning Tedder. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 03:01, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as co-founder of the company. -- Tavix (talk) 19:27, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete only listed in infobox as a founder, but not clear what role he had in it as most entrepreneurial articles discuss only Andrew and Paul Gower. No detail in the article that would be biographical. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 03:00, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete Gerhard was CEO from 2009 to 2015, and article has some quotes from him, but not much to have biographical information about him that would better explain the company. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 03:05, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 16:39, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Relanxious" appears to have been a rumored film from 2012 that never got off the ground. I have no clue why that would make "Relanxious" a nickname for Olivia Wilde, as the disambiguator would imply. -- Tavix (talk) 01:33, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Could also redirect to Jason Sudeikis but both he and Wilde are just the actors, and not the producers or primary screenwriter or director on the film project. Not mentioned in either article. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 15:47, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
