Squamish Constellation Festival[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 retarget to List of music festivals in Canada. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 00:48, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target. Unless it is added to the target with proper sourcing, I would suggest deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 23:10, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to List of music festivals in Canada, where it's listed. This is more helpful than most such redirects IMO, since it conveys the information that this is a music festival. I genuinely assumed it was some sort of astronomy festival from its name. --BDD (talk) 17:04, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No objection to this suggestion as nominator. signed, Rosguill talk 20:28, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was withdrawn. --BDD (talk) 17:07, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned on target page or else in WP, apparently it's an earlier name for a song that became titled Famous with Rihanna. Richhoncho (talk) 16:19, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, perhaps if sourcing allows we can update the Famous (Kanye West song) article and redirect Nina Chop to there? Does this source work? I don't feel strongly about keeping the redirect, but would like to keep if the "Famous" article is updated appropriately. I've posted a neutral notice at Talk:Famous (Kanye West song) in case others watching the page care to weigh in. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:36, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently an alt-right idea about Generation Z being more receptive to their ideas, it's included in the alt-right navbox but doesn't seem to be discussed anywhere. Without context, there's a troubling implication that this is a legitimate alternative name for the topic. BDD (talk) 15:06, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear connection to the target article. I guess the idea is that Gen Z breaks a reverberating "echo" from the Boomers, but this isn't a common phrase to describe that. BDD (talk) 15:02, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's standard to redirect domain name to main article, e.g. Microsoft.com. It'll redirect to the main article if someone wikilinks TottenhamHotspur.com in another article.

For the url's it's less about them being "typed" into search bar and more about links in references.
"Sample article about player testimonial from official website". TottenhamHotspur.com.{{cite web}}: CS1 maint: url-status (link)
vs ""Sample article about playr testimonial from fansite". HotSpurHQ.com.{{cite web}}: CS1 maint: url-status (link).

  • Keep. As others have said it's standard practice to link primary domain names to the appropriate articles. The most compelling argument is for the link in references as stated by Bogger.   Jts1882 | talk  15:30, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree because those words in that order are specifically about a website, and the target is the topic the website deals with. If Football in London had a section (one line) on media mentionaing that there was a website football.london, then the retarget would make sense. A hypothetical London Evening Herald might redirect to Media in London, Newspapers run by Newspaper Holdings or Ronald 'owner operator of London Evening Herald' McTaggart rather than London which would be too broad to even mention the source of the redirect.

Not mentioned in target, which is an FA class article. I would suggest deletion. Reading the article's lead, it says that The system was the twelfth and final tropical cyclone, the eighth tropical storm, and fourth hurricane in the 1991 Atlantic hurricane season, so this redirect would appear to be plainly inaccurate. Cyclone Twelve (1991) would be more accurate, although IMO still unnecessary as it appears that the storm is consistently known by a few other names. signed, Rosguill talk 02:05, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
