Beckton Riverside[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 Docklands Light Railway extension to Thamesmead. Not much of a consensus, but this option has the momentum following the other RfD. -- Tavix ^(talk) 04:03, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Beckton Riverside → Beckton (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Reason #10: "If the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject." This redirect is used to have something to link to, as if Wikipedia had any useful information on this planned DLR station.

But we don't. Much better to delete the redirect and unlink until linking gives a reader something useful. CapnZapp (talk) 12:43, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Beckton Riverside DLR station and Beckton Riverside station are separate redirects (that I'm about to nominate on today's page), this redirect should target information about the development the proposed station would serve that either has a link to or contains information about the proposed station, however I can't find any article that currently has any such information. Thryduulf (talk) 16:23, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Given the development proposed in the next 10/20 years in the area (see here) I think an article may emerge in the future - but for now, Beckton seems a reasonable place to link the redirect. Could always stick a line in the Beckton article, if you'd like. Turini2 (talk) 20:00, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: User:Turini2 I hope you understand that it is precisely because the target article does not contain any useful on "Beckton Riverside" I have nominated the redirect for deletion. In other words, it is the opposite of "reasonable" to redirect readers to articles that add nothing useful. If the article does contain significant information ten years from now, you are welcome to then recreate the redirect (or even flesh it out as a stand-alone article) but please do not consider "gaming the system" by adding content to Beckton solely to justify keeping the redirect. Thank you and have a good day CapnZapp (talk) 10:38, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@CapnZapp: adding information to the target that is encyclopaedic and DUE that supports a redirect is not gaming the system, it is improving the encyclopaedia and something that happens quite often. Thryduulf (talk) 12:58, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, when and if useful info can be found. However, I was responding to Turini2's comment - I am talking about the (hypothetical) case where editors make an effort to mention the redirected term for the chief purpose of not having to delete a redirect, not for the purpose of actually bringing the reader useful information. Anyway, this discussion is well and good, but there still is nothing on the Beckton page about Beckton Riverside, and we don't create redirects "for future use". CapnZapp (talk) 09:51, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well we do create {{R with possibilities}} redirects for future use, but they should still take the reader to some relevant content in the meanwhile. As for not bringing the reader useful information, how would you classify this edit of mine which was made so the (imo useful) redirect Rail transport in the Maldives would not be deleted? In this specific case though you can see I am recommending deletion. Thryduulf (talk) 16:34, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to limit my response to simply noting our agreement. Thank you CapnZapp (talk) 08:45, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

~~Retarget to Docklands Light Railway extension to Dagenham Dock which is the target of Beckton Riverside station.~~ If the other RfD closes with a change of target, then fix this accordingly. If Beckton Riverside is not notable in itself outside of the context of the railway station, then Reason#10 is not the way to delete this. Jay (talk) 04:44, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Docklands Light Railway extension to Thamesmead per Jay. Currently, the only thing we have information on that could be referred to as "Beckton Riverside" is the station, which redirects there; I suggest {{R avoided double redirect}} as once the station is built and we have an article, this redirect should be retargeted. eviolite (talk) 05:02, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Civil court[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 Civil law without prejudice against creation of a separate disambiguation at this title. -- Tavix ^(talk) 03:58, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Civil court → Lawsuit (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Civil courts do much more than hear lawsuits. I recall that when I changed my name there were something like 30 options on the form, and only 2 or 3 involved lawsuits. An article that explains that fairly well, if too briefly, is Civil law (common law). I think it would be better to retarget there. The other concern with this redirect is that it could be ambiguous with a court operating under Civil law (legal system), but the proposed target links to the DAB Civil law, so I think that handles that. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 11:16, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree the current target isn't great, but I'm wondering whether a dab page might be better. The top hits on google for me relate to County Court (England and Wales) for example, but this will likely be different for those googling from outside that jurisdiction. Thryduulf (talk) 20:01, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:REDYES. Veverve (talk) 21:57, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
We already have sooo many stub articles on marginally distinct legal topics. I'd just as soon not encourage creation of another. What is there to be said about civil courts that can't be said in the article on civil law? -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 08:42, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Note that both Civil law (common law) and Civil law (legal system) hatnote the DAB Civil law.

Something that hasn't been mentioned yet is that the phrase "civil court" is often used to denote the opposite of Ecclesiastical court, i.e. a court that applies secular rather than religious law. Several of the backlinks indeed are using this meaning: I noticed Priest–penitent privilege in England from the Reformation to the nineteenth century and Serbian Orthodox Diocese v. Milivojevich at a glance. (Heck, I've even used it that way myself: "...holding that the civil courts could not review church disciplinary proceedings".) See also some of these Google Scholar results and Black's Law Dictionary: "[Civil] is also used in contradistinction to military or ecclesiastical, to natural or foreign; thus, we speak of a civil station, as opposed to a military or an ecclesiastical station; a civil death, as opposed to a natural death ; a civil war, as opposed to a foreign war." My recommendation would probably be to retarget to the dab page Civil law (which needs to be expanded) since the phrase is ambiguous. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:16, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Seems to be clear agreement that the status quo is unsatisfactory, but no clear consensus between retargeting, deletion, and disambiguation.

I don't object to Extraordinary Writ's suggestion, although I'd still prefer my own. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she/they) 05:04, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A separate disambiguation page, as Thryduulf proposes, would be acceptable as well, I think. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 19:40, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Having thought more about this, I think a dedicated disambiguation page, linking to but separate from, Cvil law would be the best. Thryduulf (talk) 15:12, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to the disambiguation page Civil law or create a separate disambiguation page. Schleiz (talk) 15:33, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weak retarget to Civil law. I'm sympathetic to the call for a new disambiguation page, because the other uses don't seem to apply. You probably wouldn't call a court a civil court just because it was municipal or part of a continental legal system, though both of those would have their non-criminal courts. It would be nice if the disambiguation page could easily account for the usage of non-criminal/non-military/non-religious law, but if I had a good idea for how to do that, I'd do it.

A draft disambiguation page could help if we're still holding out hope for disambiguating this title. --BDD (talk) 21:43, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Софија → Sofia (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not in any language relevant to the article. Not target article. QuickQuokka ^[talk] 21:46, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This appears to be Macedonian or Serbian. See mk:Софија and sr:Софија. - Eureka Lott 01:21, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@EurekaLott: I know, but Bulgaria's language is Bulgarian, and the Macedonian/Serbian aren't relevant to the article, since they're not spoken in Sofia. QuickQuokka ^[talk] 10:22, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Sofija (given name), which appears to be the only target in English Wikipedia for which any of those languages is relevant for WP:RLOTE purposes. 61.239.39.90 (talk) 11:59, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Constituent monarchy → Administrative division (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Retarget to Non-sovereign monarchy or List of current constituent monarchs. Thesmp (talk) 19:15, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget both away from the current target which is unsatisfactory, to Monarch (and remove circular wikilink there). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:08, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Shhhnotsoloud, why do you propose Monarch as a target? I think Non-sovereign monarchy or List of current constituent monarchs is much closer to what reader why expect to see when he/she enters 'Constituent monarchy'. --Thesmp (talk) 22:33, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - I was concerned that Non-sovereign monarchy does not define "Constituent monarchy" (although I admit Monarchy doesn't either). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 21:33, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - Shhhnotsoloud, now I added this synonym too. Thesmp (talk) 22:25, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Non-sovereign monarchy. There isn't a need for the article to define "Constituent monarchy" as it appears to be a conjectural term rather than one in much use. CMD (talk) 01:59, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Download Songs → Billboard Japan#Singles and tracks (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

As-is, apparently too vague to mean one specific chart. Couldn't find other charts using exact phrase or name, but I believe it may also mean any other downloadable songs chart. George Ho (talk) 19:36, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and add redirects here, hatnote to Download (disambiguation) where there are more options. If "Download Songs" is the specific name for other charts than the Japan one, this can become a disambiguation. Compare with Download Charts. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 19:49, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
