Unnecessary WP:XNR.

Philippine independence[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 no consensus. It doesn't seem like we're likely to resolve this issue with further relistings. As this nomination was in response to edit warring, a no consensus result here actually means that we will be going back to pointing to Treaty of Manila (1946) signed, Rosguill talk 20:53, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Treaty of Manila (1946). That was the origincal redirect. The Treaty of Manila is the treaty that gave the Philippines its internationally recognized independence in 1946. Independence Day (Philippines) refers to June 12, 1898, when Philippine Revolutionaries declared the Philippines independent. They failed. The Philippines was ruled by the U.S. for nearly 50 years. In common parlance and in international law the Philippines gained its Independence in 1946. This redirect says "Philippine independence" and should point to when the country actually became independent, when it gained its sovereignty, when it fully ruled itself. The redirect originally pointed to the Treaty of Manila article but was changed several years ago, over objections, several months after the concluded discussion on the Talk page ruled generally against the change (keeping Treaty of Manila). I and other editors didn't notice. Rather than change it back and risk (another) WP:EDITWAR, I bring it here, as suggested years ago on Talk:Philippine independence.--Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 13:33, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The difference is that the American Revolutionaries won whereas the Philippine Revolutionaries lost. In America, the declaration became reality. In America, those that declared independence achieved independence. In the Philippines, the declaration was not followed by independence but by American colonial rule. Independence did not come for the Philippines until 1946. This creates a disconnect between what is called Independence Day, which did not lead to independence, and the real independence nearly 50 years later. Naturally speaking, does "Philippine independence" refer to real independence or the day called Independence Day?--Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 06:02, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm only saying a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC exists so a disambiguation page is unnecessary. Hatnotes can do all the work anyway. If people wanted to search the national independence holiday, the appropriate redirect is Independence Day (Philippines). But Philippine independence itself is overwhelmingly a June 12, 1898 event in people's memory, the day of the independence declaration. The Philippine Centennial redirects to the correct article being the 100 years of Philippine independence. Last year, Google search paid tribute to 121 years of Philippine independence with a doodle. Again, theres nothing that a hatnote cant do. I know the history, but we are all just following what the average reader understands as Philippine independence and their likely search term for the June 12, 1898 event. Hatnotes.--RioHondo (talk) 15:19, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CommentI'm only saying that the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is actual independence, when the Philippines began to govern itself. When you say "in people's memory", I am wondering "Which people?" Certainly not the people of America, or Europe, or Africa. A WP:GLOBAL understanding of the WP:COMMONNAME as well as the understanding of the phrase "the Philippines since independence" would naturally lead to 1946. Otherwise people not from the Philippines (and many in the Philippines) would be confused. The use of "independence day" as a name for June 12, 1898 is a term of art and an historical accident that is not understood by anyone who does not have a working knowledge of Philippine history. When people outside the Philippines are looking for information on "Philippine independence" they mean when the Philippines began its current period of self-rule, like what happened in other former colonies. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 09:27, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The situation is not unique to the Philippines. Countries like East Timor and Vietnam also celebrate their independence declaration and not the dates they were granted by Indonesia and France respectively. Estonia and Georgia also recognize their pre-USSR sovereignty as their independence. So when the reliable sources mention xx years of Vietnam's or Timor's or Estonia's independence, we know which dates they are referring to, like in our case, the dates they recognize and celebrate. Those are featured annually by mainstream media.--RioHondo (talk) 10:27, 29 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CommentDisambiguate with a sentence or two of explanation -- I'm happy with that.--Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 09:05, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well, my suggestion was to make it a WP:SS article; however, a rose, by any other name, .... The term Philippine independence seems to mean and to have meant different things to different people, and separate WP articles exist which detail and expound upon those different meanings. A number of separate WP articles concern separate declarations of independence by separate revolutionary organizations. Also, the term conceals an ambiguity between declaration of independence and achievement of independence. This is too messy, as you point out, for a disambiguation page. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 12:06, 29 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - It's complicated. This appears, at first glance, to be something that somebody would type in expecting a general historical article. One that discusses the evolution of different intellectual streams of thought in the country, the colonialist fights, the issues in context with broader world wars, and so on? I'm iffy on having any just one single event and/or document gone to here. I find myself interested in the previous comment's point. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:58, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Nothing obvious on DAB page He that this could refer to. Narky Blert (talk) 17:21, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:PANDORA. Keeping this would encourage people to create redirects where the only difference between the 2 is that the redirect does not have the first letter. For example, Oy StoryToy Story or Hris PrattChris Pratt. OcelotCreeper (talk) 19:14, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't see how the existence of this particular redirect would make someone think "oh, I should create more redirects like it!"

  • Weak Keep - The article existed at this title title for a month plus, hence I will cross into keep just barely. Otherwise – "the", being so generic, has little affinity as a typo (no more than any other "the", and I do not think a similiar redirect should be created for every title containing the word—in theory). — Godsy (TALKCONT) 14:24, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As I suspected, and as is typical for SIAs: Black Monday has something like 80 links-in, most of which are plain wrong. Narky Blert (talk) 01:43, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Typical link, in Brown v. Board of Education: 'Many Southern white Americans viewed Brown v. Board of Education as "a day of catastrophe—a Black Monday—a day something like Pearl Harbor."' The top entry in Black Monday is a 1209 massacre in Dublin by the Irish of 500 English settlers, and the second is a day of bad weather in 1360 which killed men and horses. The parallels are not exact. Narky Blert (talk) 02:03, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible typo. I suppose that this would originate from capitalizing the 2 for an (at) symbol, but the (at) causes the title to take on a completely different meaning. Utopes (talk / cont) 16:54, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    • There's one letter after the mistake; that's not a lot of time to fix or even notice a typo. Also, the search bar isn't the only way you can search something; URL searches are common too. — J947 (user | cont | ess), at 21:22, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • The number of letters after is irrelevant, try the correct URL after. Should we create soft redirects to rm.wikipedia.org (a similarly plausible typo as r and m are to the right of e and n on the keyboard)? Peter James (talk) 18:30, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • The number of letters after is relevant; it's the amount of time you have to notice your mistake. IMO Y@K is far more plausible than rm.wikipedia.org. — J947 (user | cont | ess), at 05:33, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The transposition is between the B and L adjacent letters. It's something that I occasionally do when one hand is too fast to hit its key before the other hand hits its intended key. So it's possible to type the 'b' before the 'l' by accident. On the other hand, I really don't think we ought to be making redirects to cover every possible transposition of adjacent letters, otherwise we'd have alubm and albmu to deal with. I'd be inclined to let the search function deal with transpositions and get rid of the redirects, but it's not a big deal. --RexxS (talk) 15:50, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I must've missed it. I meant to say "B and L" keys...just typed in the wrong letter, since the L and M keys are really close to each other. Regards, SONIC678 16:17, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all. No need for redirects with a misspelled qualifier when the correct version exists, and pops up in the searchbox after a few letters. This is just clutter. Narky Blert (talk) 16:41, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such term. The redirect was deleted (as part of a move) as a result of a discussion at Talk:Gyrator–capacitor model#Magnetic capacitivity. I requested the creator to explain, but received no response. SpinningSpark 13:54, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The discussion linked by nom suggests a mistranslation from German or Russian, and I agree. A Google search for the unusual-looking word "capacivity" (which looks like a cross between capacitance, capacity and conductivity) left me none the wiser. A search for "magnetic capacivity" turned up stray references equating it to either permeance or permittivity (which are different things). I didn't find the 1913 Arkadiew paper cited in Gyrator–capacitor model; but did find this 1921 paper by the same author. It uses the expression magnetische Fähigkeit, which translates literally as "magnetic conductivity"; another odd-looking expression. However, this citation defines magnetische Fähigkeit as a synonym of magnetische Permeabilität, "magnetic permeability". Cutting to the chase: no WP:RS source uses the expression "magnetic capacivity", it's an obscure and unlikely search term of unclear meaning, and we would be better off without it.
