August 10[edit]
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on August 10, 2018.
Tim Deluxe[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 procedural close. The page in question is no longer a redirect. -- Tavix (talk) 18:23, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
Tim Deluxe is not mentioned on the target page. As such, the redirect is only likely to confuse readers. History suggests that maybe he was on the magazine's list of top 100 DJs – doesn't seem a ground for redirecting him here. (I realise he has an article on the Dutch Wikipedia, but wouldn't like to replace the redirect with translated text without being sure that the translation is reasonably accurate.) — Smjg (talk) 23:00, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Unhelpful. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 04:16, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and per the tenth point of WP:RDEL, as he looks quite likely to be notable in his own right. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:36, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. I've made it an article about the notable British DJ Tim Deluxe who's had tons of charts and airplay, easily satisfying WP:NMUSIC and WP:GNG (with coverage from AllMusic and Resident Advisor). The editor whose username is Z0 11:03, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Manlet[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 soft redirect to Wiktionary
Not mentioned at target, no other suitable target found Paradoctor (talk) 22:54, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- Soft redirect to wikt:manlet. "The Manlet" is a poem by Carroll, but the redirect is unhelpful not only because it isn't mentioned in the target but also because someone searching for "manlet" is probably more likely to be looking for a definition, which Wiktionary can provide, than for information about the poem. Note that The Manlet also points to the same target and has the same problems, but would be less suitable as a soft redirect. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:28, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- "more likely to be looking for a definition" Yep, that's what brought me here.
- Soft redirect works for me. I added the poem to the Works section, so The Manlet has been taken care of. Paradoctor (talk) 02:15, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was delete. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 20:44, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
Not mentioned in the article as either a major actress or character AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 01:02, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete WP:XY. She's an actress. She played a recurring character in Dahleez (2016 TV series). She also played lots of other roles. Whether or not she's notable, retargeting to a single role would be unhelpful both to readers and to editors. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 01:44, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per 59.149.124.29. XY. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 16:07, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

- Alex Cortez → Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Never heard the subject referred to as this, and could cause problems if someone else were actually called this. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 00:09, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete There is an actor named Alex Cortez who is mentioned in articles such as The Prom Kings and Point of Entry (TV series), if the aforementioned is notable, an article should be created, but redirect to unrelated subject is misleading. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 06:28, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Alex Cortez: I can't find a single source using that name to refer to Ocasio-Cortez. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:23, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

Never heard the subject referred to as this, and could cause problems if someone else were actually called this. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 00:09, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Alex Ocasio as confusing for there isn't a prominent subject from a Google search. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 06:28, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep Alex Ocasio: I found one video using that name for her, and her campaign website emphasises "Ocasio" over "Cortez (in the url, page title and splash page banner), so it seems much more plausible and much less likely that anyone searching for that name is looking for someone else. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:23, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. The nomination is poor: it's a combination of WP:INEVERHEARDOFIT and an assertion without evidence. If the nominator were to show that someone else is called this and explain how it would be problematic, then the argument may be persuasive. On the other hand, Arms & Hearts actually performed the required research, showing that is a valid name used to refer to the subject in question. -- Tavix (talk) 00:31, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
