Irrelevant redirect that I have no idea how it got here since there are absolutely no relations between the artist and any brothers with the surname "Lopez". 69.118.33.239 (talk) 22:44, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

nonsensical title, but this is too old for R3 Ꞷumbolo 22:08, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment looking at the description for weather beacon, it might be okay. Are you questioning its use as a search phrase? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:49, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. useless--it's just a reverse definition. DGG ( talk ) 01:09, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Target page doesn't mention this. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:30, 3 November 2017 (UTC)
Retarget to Apache_Youth_Ministry#Hoops on the Rezwhere it is discussed. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:08, 6 November 2017 (UTC)- Taking a look at that article, the section, as with most of the rest of the article is a compilation of content from primary sources (the only source is one of the people mentioned in the article). Prodded it, but an editor would also be justified to simply prune it down to the basics, which would almost certainly remove this. Maybe this will wind up coming back to RfD? — Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:53, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
Relisting comment: Note that AngusWOOF's suggested target has been deleted as an expired PROD. I'm relisting to give an opportunity to discuss the redirect without that target and to list the variant redirects Hoops on the rez and User:Popcap1523/Hoops on the rez which should have the same fate as the originally nominated redirect.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- Tavix (talk) 14:30, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete I don't think the event was more notable than the organization. It isn't even discussed as a notable event in the rezball general article. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:16, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) feminist 09:36, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
A dispute has arisen as to whether this should continue to redirect to its current longstanding target (also the redirect target of Stone, for which "stones" is the plural), or should be a separate disambiguation page. I have no immediate opinion on the matter, but would like to see evidence of a lack of primacy before changing a longstanding status quo ante. bd2412 T 14:14, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep Stones should still point to Stone. However Stones (disambiguation) can either be created as a separate dab, as with Cat (disambiguation) and Cats (disambiguation), or as a redirect to Stone (disambiguation). AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:12, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep, clear primary topic. I do not understand the argument that "stones" isn't a commonly used plural for multiple rocks, when it clearly is. —Xezbeth (talk) 07:53, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- The argument on Talk:Stones wasn't that
"stones" isn't a commonly used plural for multiple rocks
, rather that "stones" is also a plural for stone (unit). 59.149.124.29 (talk) 03:21, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
- The argument on Talk:Stones wasn't that
- Keep Google Books results show that rock (geology) is the clear WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT by usage. The Rolling Stones come in a very distant second. Stone (unit) forms an even smaller proportion of actual usages, and isn't consistently pluralised anyway (e.g. "he weighs ten stone" not *"he weighs ten stones", but "how much is that in stones" rather than *"how much is that in stone"). 59.149.124.29 (talk) 03:21, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep targeted to the primary topic Stone, but split Stones (disambiguation) from Stone (disambiguation): the majority of the entries are proper names that are either Stone or Stones (but not both), so this will be easier for readers to navigate in separate dab pages. – Uanfala 13:32, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
- Keep clear plural primary topic in comparison to the unit. Widefox; talk 23:30, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

UIPF[edit]

No real connection to target PRehse (talk) 00:12, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete The trivial mention of the Union des intérêts de la place financière lémanique at the target's bibliography section is unhelpful to anyone looking for actual encyclopedic information about it. Wikipedia doesn't discuss anything else called UIPF either, e.g. the other entries on the dab page that used to be at this lemma. (I am slightly mystified why International Francophone Press Union's acronym is UPF instead of UIPF.) 59.149.124.29 (talk) 09:39, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I see some news articles that refer, perhaps incorrectly, to International Francophone Press Union as some news articles refer to the organization as UIPF [1] [2], union interprofessionnelle du Finistère [3] [4] or obscure ones like ubiquitous ingress packet filtering (UIPF) [5] .
