Unnecessary redirects, since possibly infringe CNR the relation between pages with different namespaces is not advisable or because contribute neither function in the Wikipedia and no other page redirects her.
They is also a non-existent user who does not belong to this Wikipedia. The other user that redirects it, has been retired permanently from the English Wikipedia per an indefinite block in the Spanish Wikipedia. 45.224.108.254 22:05, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment redirects from user subpages to mainspace do not violate WP:CNR (see point 9 of arguments for keeping section) and were this in the userspace of an extant user my recommendation would be a strong keep. However, as things are they are neither particuarly useful nor at all harmful. Thryduulf (talk) 20:14, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: These redirects do not contribute any benefit to the project, as they do not have any page that link them (only to the pages of: Redirects of discussion and derivatives). Only they are userpage, that redirected towards the mainspace, whose pages were possibly created by a old user name (mentioned in the redirects titles, which currently does not exist), interpreting the increase of 'ego' of the same, giving it ownership over them. Sorry for my bad English. 45.228.254.166 19:14, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete because there is no longer a user with this name. -- Tavix (talk) 21:19, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The final of three redirects I found today which are not properly written. Title has no space between name of the storm and the year. Properly titled redirect already exists which is Tropical Storm Vernon (1984), so there is no reason why we should keep this. CycloneYoris talk! 22:03, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, WP:G6 should apply to this one as it's "a redirect left over from moving a page that was obviously created at the wrong title". Doesn't seem useful to me. PC78 (talk) 15:13, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete WP:COSTLY. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 06:59, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Another incorrectly spelled redirect created by the same user. No space between name of the storm and the year in which it occurred. Redirect with proper title already exists which is Tropical Storm Wilda (1976), so I see no reason why we should keep this one. CycloneYoris talk! 21:54, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrectly spelled redirect. Title has no space between the name of the storm and the year, which is an obvious typo. Another redirect with the proper title already exists which is, Tropical Storm Wilda (1961), so there is no reason to keep this one. CycloneYoris talk! 21:46, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This literally means "Airport Airport" and is not specific to Istanbul. feminist (talk) 17:02, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. There is no evidence the airport is known by this name. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:09, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ridiculous. Airports aren't a concept at the time when the city was known as "Constantinople". Before anyone argues about the merits of someone wanting to visit a place previously known as Constantinople, I'd note that usage for this redirect is minimal at best. feminist (talk) 17:01, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

May be misleading as it doesn't refer to the "exit" or "leave" from the EU B dash (talk) 13:12, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete My first thought was this would refer to a British person representing the European Union in some capacity, or possibly how one might describe someone from Texas as a Texan from the United States. I certainly wouldn't associate it with Brexit. Thryduulf (talk) 16:19, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This redirect might cause confusion. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:11, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't even know who would search for this. --The Vintage Feminist (talk) 19:48, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The redirect title isn't complete or meaningful, so can't be redirected to anything unambiguously correct. --A D Monroe III(talk) 20:51, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Incomplete and nonsensical redirect. Goveganfortheanimals (talk) 15:13, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I would be inclined to keep if the redirect was more complete, such as if it had something about the UK leaving or about Brexit specifically. Mgasparin (talk) 03:40, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Krusty the Clown. (non-admin closure) B dash (talk) 01:27, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No longer listed in the characters. Not notable enough. Goveganfortheanimals (talk) 07:48, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, since it is not in the target. While redirects are cheap, it could be confusing to a reader to click on the link and then find nothing about the character.Onel5969 TT me 14:03, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ragnar Larsson[edit]

The result of the discussion was no consensus. While there have been some good points and suggestions, nobody has really expressed a further opinion on what to do. As such, no consensus here on what do do with this information, but that should not stop an enterprising editor from looking into it... ~ Amory (u • t • c) 14:18, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect to a DAB page which includes no-one called Ragnar. (FWIW, there's no-one called Ragnar Larsson with an article in Swedish WP; though there does seem to have been a prewar international footballer; see 1938–39 in Swedish football.) Delete. Narky Blert (talk) 06:51, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article for Axel Larsson (Swedish wrestler) has this source with the name Ragnar Larsson. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 06:18, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Add the information to Wikipedia if it's notable, otherwise Delete to avoid WP:SURPRISE. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:26, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep While I share JHunterJ's uncertainty about the source's notability, it's also the only source for the article, so if we can determine it's not, that's a clean G8 deletion for the redirect. With the extremely narrow sourcing we have, it does appear the wrestler was known as Ragnar Larsson—for all we know, he wasn't even commonly called Axel Larsson at all! So I'm keeping this "weak" because we're in very marginal territory here. Swedish Wikipedia doesn't seem to have an article on a wrestler by either name. --BDD (talk) 18:12, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move Axel Larsson (Swedish wrestler) to Ragnar Larsson per WP:COMMONNAME / WP:NATURAL. olympic.org also uses "Ragnar" for the Swede. -- Tavix (talk) 18:24, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I would support that, and we could add hatnotes between it and the footballer identified by AngusWOOF. --BDD (talk) 14:48, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
