The result of the discussion was keep. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:23, 30 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The shortcut is unimaginable. I dont think anybody is going to enter these terms in search bar. Unnecessary shortcut. —usernamekiran(talk) 20:56, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, why this shortcut is unusable? --B dash (talk) 02:21, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral I don't mind this existing, but I think the other one is better. Many WP:s have more than 2 shorthand redirects. Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 02:53, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Usernamekiran, B dash, and L3X1:Hi greetings, I created this redirects because the existing shortcuts are too long. I think simple short cut is good for this type of pages. Thank you--PATH SLOPU (Talk) 07:07, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Could be useful for those who answer AWB requests. No reason to delete as it's not harming the project in any way. Flooded with them hundreds 07:13, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Perfectly logical shortcut, given that the places to make a Request For many things are located at shortcuts starting WP:RF (e.g. WP:RFA, WP:RFB, WP:RFBOT, WP:RFC, WP:RFARB, etc.). There is no limit to how many shortcuts can exist and it's not likely that this will be confused with anything else. Thryduulf (talk) 09:31, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Reasonable shortcut. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 17:46, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Grindin[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The result of the discussion was withdrawn. -- Tavix (talk) 18:06, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The disambiguation page pointed to The Carter V (before I removed the entry) but that article does not even mention the song. A case of WP:CRYSTAL or at least WP:TOOSOON for an unreleased album. SpinningSpark 20:51, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The target mentions two songs by this name. Whether or not a song of the same name is mentioned in The Carter V or whether that album is mentioned in the target doesn't really make any difference. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:35, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as above, and song variants such as Grindin' and Grinding to dab. There are a bunch of songs that use this as a title. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:42, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdraw. Please close. I had not noticed that there were already other entries for "grindin'" on the page. SpinningSpark 08:04, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The shortcut is unimaginable. I dont think anybody is going to enter these terms in search bar. Unnecessary shortcut. —usernamekiran(talk) 20:50, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, why this shortcut is unusable? --B dash (talk) 02:21, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Fine by me, its a lot shorter and easier to remember than Perm/AWB and RFP/AWB, esp as my brain confuses all the RFP/Foobars for WP:RFPP and thus I never use them. Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 02:52, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sunday (Alan Walker song)[edit]

Xperia XZs feat. Alan Walker[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 delete. Unlike the nomination above, there doesn't seem to be evidence that this purported song was ever mentioned in the target article, so there is consensus to delete. Deryck C. 14:56, 6 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in article. No reason to exist. Flooded with them hundreds 10:37, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Real name of K-391, a collaborator of Alan Walker but I don't see why it should redirect to the latter's discography. Flooded with them hundreds 10:37, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to NoCopyrightSounds#Artists where he is mentioned under his stagename. That mention should be adjusted to include his realname too. Thryduulf (talk) 12:51, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. There doesn't seem to any substantial or reliably-sourced discussion of this person anywhere in the encyclopaedia: NoCopyrightSounds#Artists tells the reader his record label and nothing else, and is sourced to a commercial page that I can't access (which may or may not list his real name); and Stathelle has an unsourced mention that again tells the reader nothing but where he lives or once lived. We should generally be careful with redirects from real names to pseudonyms or stage names for BLP reasons (see my argument at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2018 July 24#Leah Guey), and in this case there's really no benefit to keeping this when we have practically no useful information about the person in question. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:06, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Arms & Hearts. -- Tavix (talk) 20:02, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is ambitious as it refers to all tropical storms that begins with letter "A". B dash (talk) 09:31, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete this is a Eubot redirect created because of the existence of Tropical Storm α as a redirect to the same location. It is I think another example of that bot being a little exuberant in it's mission. Thryduulf (talk) 12:56, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Thryduulf. Titoxd(?!?) 00:02, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's a completely different app unrelated to ublock origin.[1] Redirect is misleading Openlydialectic (talk) 07:42, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep it's a former name as described in the article. It's also alternatively a redirect to a related topic - that of the other extension that retained the name and was forked from this original developer. TLDR - it's correct. Widefox; talk 23:15, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The claim that uBlock is "unrelated" to uBlock Origin is demonstrably untrue; as the article shows, they have a common origin and share some personnel. While uBlock is genuinely "a completely different app," this difference is explained in the article, which mitigates any risk that the redirect could cause confusion. Google results also strongly suggest that uBlock Origin is commonly referred to as "uBlock". – Arms & Hearts (talk) 19:53, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
