Danchall reggae → Dancehall (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Implausible typo. Danchall? Presumably the creator meant to say "Dancehall reggae" which isn't a thing. Exemplo347 (talk) 21:40, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - extremely implausible! :-) Deb (talk) 08:12, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OBCD → MySQL (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Does not appear to refer to target. - CHAMPION ^{(talk) (contributions) (logs)} 23:24, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Open Database Connectivity as a typo of ODBC. Richard ⁰⁶¹² 10:36, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think that seems plausible as a mistake, there are references to an organization at articles like ART4 and CARD9, though. - CHAMPION ^{(talk) (contributions) (logs)} 23:19, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The primary topic seems to be Origins of Bone and Cartilage Disease, which Wikipedia does not (yet) have. Error redirects from initialisms seem to be more confusing than a typical typo, so I would be wary of employing them unless it is a genuine plausible error in the wild, and I'm not seeing that here. As an aside, it could be a "phonetic" spelling of obesity (your accent may vary), so if it has to be retargeted somewhere, that's where I would send it. -- Tavix ^(talk) 03:39, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Croizee[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Glossary of ballet#croisée. (non-admin closure) Galobtter (pingó mió) 15:54, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Croizee → Insanity (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This spelling variation of "crazy" seems like a WP:MADEUP neologism. Steel1943 (talk) 23:03, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - This seems like something that somebody might type for Croisee, a French term with multiple meanings depending on the context. It's covered in at least one Wikipedia page: Glossary_of_ballet#C. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 08:24, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's conceivable that an English speaker would type 'croizee' as a phonetic representation of croisé(e), so a retarget to Glossary_of_ballet with an anchor at the relevant term could work. Failing that, delete it. Richard ⁰⁶¹² 10:41, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this would just interfere with Croisee. It's otherwise some neologism. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:52, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget per Richard0612, this is a perfectly plausible misspelling of "Croisee". Thryduulf (talk) 17:14, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cyecwu City → Jeju City (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Cyecwu → Jeju (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Does not seem to be a valid spelling in any language or a Korean romanization, could not see evidence of usage - CHAMPION ^{(talk) (contributions) (logs)} 23:10, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment probably a typo of Ceycwu, the spelling of the target in Yale Romanization of Korean (and a frequently-used example of why no one besides linguists likes Yale Romanization). 59.149.124.29 (talk) 15:07, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I have added Template:R from misspelling to both. Raymond1922 (talk) 17:59, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per a 59.149.124.29's opinion. --Garam (talk) 23:59, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comparative method[edit]

The result of the discussion was Move. (non-admin closure) Galobtter (pingó mió) 15:23, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comparative method → Comparative method (linguistics) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

According to the history "Comparative method" can refer to Comparative method (linguistics), Comparative research and Cross-cultural studies (comparative studies). Currently it redirects to Comparative method (linguistics), but it doesn't make any sense to keep a base name redirecting to a (parenthesis). © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 03:57, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move Comparative method (linguistics) to Comparative method. Seems like the easiest solution, absent other matching titles. bd2412 T 13:47, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Move per BD2412 and keep the resulting redirect per {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}} and {{R from move}}. Thryduulf (talk) 17:19, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I also support that move, and we can add a hat-note to 'cross-cultural studies' after we do it just in case. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 07:03, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was withdrawn; speedily deleted per G7 by RL0919. (non-admin closure) — Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 23:52, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Van Egmond van de Nijenburg → de:Van Egmond van de Nijenburg (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Sending readers seeking content in English to a page that written in another language is not helpful. Furthermore, there is no more reason to send readers to a foreign Wikipedia in this particular case than any other; It is no different than any other topic a foreign Wikipedia covers that we currently do not. — Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 02:13, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen it used several times, typically with a, say [de] (for German) afterwards. This is not a big deal for me, but I like to link to authors, and in Kafr Manda one of the authors is the "Gesandter in Neapel" mentioned in the German article, Huldra (talk) 21:39, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Huldra: There are no other plain occurrences of {{soft redirect}} within the mainspace; no other redirects of this nature exist. That aside, when appropriate, it can be easily linked to as de:Van Egmond van de Nijenburg then piped. — Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 23:38, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Godsy: You are right; I just linked the Kafr Manda article. Feel free to delete the redir, Huldra (talk) 23:43, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
