Sernui[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. signed, Rosguill talk 15:58, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another Middle-earth river redirect not mentioned anywhere. It's rather a minor plot point, just a name on a map really, so I don't see a reason to really mention it anywhere. Hog Farm Bacon 23:56, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Neither the target section nor that section's main article has any information about it, so the redirect is pointless. -- Elphion (talk)

Cementoss[edit]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) 2pou (talk) 23:46, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is not mentioned in the target or anywhere else in the "My Hero Academia characters" article. Seventyfiveyears at 23:11, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This does appear at target article, it’s apparently the name of a character. No reason to delete. CycloneYoris talk! 23:27, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, it's in the target, so I don't see a reason to delete. Hog Farm Bacon 23:31, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. signed, Rosguill talk 15:58, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect use of the draft namespace. There's no page history here, both have always been redirects. This isn't a plausible search term, as nobody's gonna search for a title with the Draft: prefix, unless they're looking for a specific draft. Hog Farm Bacon 22:59, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. More proper usage of the draft namespace would be to copy paste the article to make potential edits to request later if you aren't extended confirmed. OcelotCreeper (talk) 23:18, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, and I think an edit filter or page creation blacklisting of some sort should be created for the creation of redirects in the "Draft:" namespace that are created and target a non-"Draft:" namespace page. Steel1943 (talk) 00:06, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pinging Oshwah. Techie3 (talk) 01:54, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • ...Who may want to consider deleting these redirects per WP:G7 and WP:SALT-ing these titles from being created by non-confirmed accounts instead, if I'm understand the reason why these redirects were created? (The creation and deletion logs for these titles are a mess.) Steel1943 (talk) 02:35, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as obvious maintenance. Perhaps salt if log history shows repeated attempts (not admin, can't check that myself). — JFG talk 10:17, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was speedy keep. It is WP:SNOWing. (non-admin closure) Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 09:05, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible redirect, most likely because of its space. Seventyfiveyears at 22:50, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Plausible misspelling of this compound word. (In fact, I'd say most compound words could be plausible incorrectly spelled with a space, but that's a discussion for another time, if ever.) Steel1943 (talk) 22:51, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep. I believe this is an extremely common error. 228 pageviews this year. I'm seeing no indication that this is implausible in any way. Hog Farm Bacon 22:54, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, this spelling variant is even used on wikipedia, currently on 10 pages [1]. – Uanfala (talk) 23:59, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Plausible search term - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 04:57, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep. Almost all compound words started off as two words. An exact-word Google search for "lap top" shows that people are still offering them for sale. Narky Blert (talk) 06:14, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Stoshmaster blanked, which I restored, but it doesn't seem useful. It has no incoming links, uses non-standard case, and ends with a comma. Ost (talk) 20:05, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete this JUNK, While the capital last name might be forgiven for holding the ⇧ Shift or ⇪ Caps Lock key for much too LONG, the comma I don't see a plausible reason for KEEPING, Regards, SONIC678 20:24, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Inconsistent use of CAPS and the comma at the end make this typo to implausible to be useful or helpful. Steel1943 (talk) 20:45, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Capitalising a surname is reasonable (at least as reasonable as {{R from sort name}}s); it's a style used in some published works. However the comma at the end pushes it over the threshold. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 00:42, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as an unambiguous {{R from move}} (K4). — J947 ‡ message ⁓ edits 22:47, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The move was done 14 minutes after the initial article creation. Ideally it would have been done without leaving a redirect, but c'est la vie. There's no benefit to keeping this lying around. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 23:22, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Come on, do we really need this?! Hildeoc (talk) 01:00, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • With no reliable source, the page seems frivolous or perhaps a Trojan horse for WP:OR or WP:SYNTH. I favour speedy deletion of the page.Chjoaygame (talk) 19:10, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Heat source also redirects there. Hildeoc, would you like to add it to this nomination? --BDD (talk) 19:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @BDD: Yes, definitely!--Hildeoc (talk) 19:55, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, I would favour speedy deletion of this too.Chjoaygame (talk) 19:12, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I do not understand the rationale for this RfD. The page is plausible as a search term. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 21:11, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, I too do not understand the problem here, least of all the advocacy to speedy delete it. If someone wikilinked Heat source in an article, this seems like the obvious target. There is no particular reason these should exist as separate articles, but it's a reasonable and related phrase that seems to be pointing to an obvious closely-related topic. It seems like a classic and harmless use of a redirect. ~ mazca talk 21:21, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Weak retarget to Heat transfer, which would likely be a better target, but even that's a stretch. If someone wikilinks one of these, and not "heat" itself, as suggested above, they should be slapped with a wet trout for putting unrelated verbiage into a link. It's better to leave a red link as a hint that you've linked something vague and as a prompt to put in what's really appropriate. On the other hand, as a search term, this is also too vague to assume that someone's looking for a general high-level article on "Heat" itself. Best to leave it to the search engine. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 21:45, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Mazca and LaundryPizza03. Both are perfectly plausible search terms, maybe a bit vague, but harmless enough for keeping. CycloneYoris talk! 00:18, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ram Lalla[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 Ram Mandir, Ayodhya aka Option 2 signed, Rosguill talk 17:08, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ram Lalla refers to the deity, which is an infant Rama
By the page move history, the Redirect was to Ram Lalla Temple, which then redirected to Ram Janmabhoomi but now redirects to Ram Mandir, Ayodhya. A bot fix for double redirect is why it currently redirects to Ram Janmabhoomi.

Proposing to redirect either to
1. Rama (as per mythology)
2. Ram Mandir, Ayodhya (the temple of Ram Lalla)

Best regards, SerChevalerie (talk) 17:52, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Option 2, redirect to Ram Mandir, Ayodhya. That is obviously the temple for Ram Lalla. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 18:11, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option 1 – Ram Lalla is mythologically Shri Ram, and Ram Mandir is the temple of Him. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 18:17, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option 1: But, the Rama article nowhere discusses about Ram Lalla even in the "Birth" or "Youth, family and friends" sections. We need some relevant information to be added on Ram Lalla. Option 2 is about the temple dedicated to Ram Lalla and not about him. Santoshdts [TalkToMe] 19:09, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option 2 per Santoshdts. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 07:46, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option 1, as a form of the same deity. Redirecting the deity's name to an article about a temple doesn't feel right. Vanamonde (Talk) 16:07, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Option 2 Form of the deity associated with a particular temple, is generally redirected to the temple e.g Vishalakshi.Redtigerxyz Talk 16:27, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a misspelling and unnecessary capitalisation of a bad over-literal translation into Chinese of the term couch potato, created by a user who was blocked for sockpuppetry (though only after this redirect was created, so it doesn't qualify as WP:CSD#G5). The bad over-literal translation itself (沙發馬鈴薯) gets about a dozen Google Hits [2]. Even apart from the WP:FORRED issues, the existence of this redirect adds zero value to Wikipedia and may mislead unsuspecting readers into assuming it's a correct term. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 09:52, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete the redirects listed here and move Whine (album) to the base title. signed, Rosguill talk 15:55, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

When someone is whining, frustration is not necessarily the emotion they are experiencing. Steel1943 (talk) 08:17, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Agree that this isn't a suitable target. I can't think of good targets, so either deletion or redirecting to Wiktionary would be fine by me. Whiney should definitely be deleted though: we shouldn't go that far in cataloguing the English lexicon here. Whine should either be retargeted to Whine (album), or, better, deleted to make way for the move of that article back to its pre-2017 title. – Uanfala (talk) 19:11, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Previously targeted Married... with Children, but I don't see this redirect being a likely search term for any subject at Bob Rooney (including Bob Rooney (Married... with Children) due to the lack of space and since the redirect is not proper WP:CAMELCASE though it is over 10 years old.

Not mentioned in the target article, so the connection is unclear. Steel1943 (talk) 06:58, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Is there any credible evidence that the term 'zitteriophonic' exists at all? Presumably it's a joke. Harumphy (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 07:35, 20 August 2020‎ (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Agreed, looks like a bad joke made up 14 years ago and never heard from again. The same editor also created Zitterio pointing to the same target. Judging from Google, Zitterio is an Italian surname (Wikipedia mentions no one by that name) that has nothing to do with the target. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 07:44, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete a possibly-notable annual event that is discussed nowhere in Wikipedia besides the pages of two people who happened to perform in it one year. The redirect originally pointed to Country Music, then the redirect creator went and redirected Country Music to Radio for some reason and a bot came along and "fixed" it before that got reverted. B-93 Birthday Bash got speedied a few years before this redirect was created. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 07:50, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. The redirects seemingly did make sense in the past when we had an article at Wraith, but in the absence of this it is not considered helpful to readers to direct them to a very nonspecific disambiguation page. ~ mazca talk 16:18, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's not clear how a reader is supposed to find what they are looking for when searching these terms if they are forwarded to a disambiguation page with multiple different, distinct subjects. It would probably be best to delete these redirects so that Wikipedia's search function can do its job. Steel1943 (talk) 06:10, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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 Two-Micron Sky Survey as the option that seemed to have the most support and the least opposition per the discussion below. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 16:14, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

IRC +10414 refers to a completely different star, not related to IRC -10414 and not mentioned at IRC -10414. This redirect is likely to cause confusion and is an unlikely search term for anyone wanting IRC -10414. Lithopsian (talk) 20:06, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Could you start an article on IRC +10414? I don't really know even where to start for this subject field. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:10, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It is most likely not notable; perhaps borderline, but references are thin on the ground. It would certainly be possible to create an article since the data for a starbox exists, but beyond basic data there aren't really any references to say anything about it and it would never get beyond a stub. Might even get tagged for deletion for failing WP:NASTRO. Lithopsian (talk) 20:13, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That is what the IRC part means. The question is whether it helps anyone looking for "IRC +10414"? Possibly it would let them know it is a star. Perhaps it should redirect direct to Two-Micron Sky Survey unless there is some other possible meaning for it. Lithopsian (talk) 15:00, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak retarget to Two-Micron Sky Survey, or delete (do not keep). It's harmfully confusing as-is (very much like the example given in WP:RFD#D2, "if 'Adam B. Smith' was redirected to 'Andrew B. Smith'"), however the TMSS page at least describes how the stars are catalogued, which does allow the reader to glean a very minimal amount of information about the star. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:35, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, while this was apparently created based on the assumption these two are the same star (so it is not an impossible mistake to make), I'd say the opportunity for confusion by being sent to the wrong star is worse. Not sure we should redirect to Two-Micron Sky Survey (I might support that if there was an easy way to get a list of all the objects whose designation starts with "IRC"). —Kusma (t·c) 20:58, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    There is a link to just such a list (searchable even!) in the TMSS article's external links. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 16:41, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    As a non-astronomer, I feel a bit intimidated by that page. Where do I need to click to get a list of stars? —Kusma (t·c) 19:40, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Searchable online catalog. Lithopsian (talk) 19:44, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    That is the page I feel intimidated by. —Kusma (t·c) 19:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Ah, OK. There are 5,612 objects in that catalog. You could list them all by setting the "max" on the left to unlimited and clicking the search button, but that might be even more intimidating. Generally, the easiest way to search these catalogues is just to stick IRC +10414 in the box at the top. Takes you here. Bit of a stretch for someone who just clicked a redirect, but the information is out there. Lithopsian (talk) 20:09, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks. I didn't think of searching for an empty string. —Kusma (t·c) 20:44, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pre-1975 North Indian Ocean cyclone seasons[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 all except Pre-1980 North Indian Ocean cyclone seasons, which has no consensus. The incoming links have been fixed, leaving these outdated titles as actively misleading and non-useful. Pre-1980 North Indian Ocean cyclone seasons has not reached a consensus due to its high number of incoming links, and the fact that (until halfway through the debate) there was a Category:Pre-1980 North Indian Ocean cyclone seasons, subsequently emptied and C1'ed. As an editorial action after this closure, I'm going to retarget the redirect to North Indian Ocean tropical cyclone#Seasons as a decent target that should give readers the actual information they're looking for - if there are issues with this, or if the incoming links are all cleared, it can be individually renominated if anyone wishes to. ~ mazca talk 16:10, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fix all incoming links and delete, or turn into a disambiguation (if this is considered a useful search term).

There are many pages about cyclones (or seasons) between 1900 and 1975, and the redirect is often confusing or wrong (e.g. this is used on Winston Churchill, where it is about a 1942 cyclone; the reader is not helped at all by this redirect in such a case).

The same applies to some other redirects with the same target:

Relisting comment: The four redirects mentioned at the end of the nomination statement (all but the first one in the nomination) were not tagged or officially listed as though they were part of the discussion until this relist. So, relisting now that all the redirects have been tagged to allow editors who may search these redirects time to provide input.

11-S[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 keep. Possibly an obscure and vague synonym in English, but participants generally feel that this is a frequently used abbreviation in Spanish. Given the lack of any other frequent English usages for this abbreviation to cause actual confusion, this is likely to be a net positive. ~ mazca talk 20:30, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A Google search brings up a number of uses besides the target for this string, including a NN vacuum, a model of sneakers, and what appears to be a vague chemistry thing. Hog Farm Bacon 02:34, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. It's a Spanish designation for 9/11, and there's sufficient connection between the Spanish language and USA to make this a plausible search term. See es:Atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001, boldfaced in first line. Narky Blert (talk) 09:39, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    It is still an obscure synonym to non-Hispanics. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 13:49, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – Even though it is a Spanish synonym of 911, it could mean practically anything the searcher may think of (cf C-pandemic). We do not want to send the readers into unexpected articles. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 13:49, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Narky. Plausible search term, maybe a bit vague for non-Hispanics, but not enough to warrant deletion. It’s also quite historic since it was created back in late 2003. CycloneYoris talk! 22:23, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep because it is not only designation of 9/11 in Spanish, but also in other languages that using D/M format even in British English. For example 11-S likely refer as 11 septiembre in Spanish and 11 September in British English, akin to 11-M refer as 11 Marzo in Spanish and 11 March in English outside the US. 182.1.52.138 (talk) 00:39, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above. The "S" in "11-S" stands for "September" and the "11" in that is the date. Seventyfiveyears at 01:30, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
