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

No mention of "EduTok" portmanteau at the target page, nor are there mentions of "edutok" anywhere on Wikipedia as a whole. No content about this subtopic means this redirect is not helpful. People who want to read about TikTok would have searched that directly instead of EduTok, and its existence as a redirect implies we have something about EduTok which we do not. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 22:46, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Serves me right for making todo redirects. I have now added a sourced sentence in the article explaining the relevance to the subject. Arlo James Barnes 01:10, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep as per Arlo, who has swiftly and roundly rendered the argument presented by nom moot. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 04:14, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]

This is the weirdest way I've seen "!keep as a mention has been added" written. Not sure why you needed to specify: "Arlo was quick to absolutely dismantle the position laid out by the [good faith] nominator"; was not deep enough of an RfD to use that specific cut.

Echo Ranch Bible Camp → Auke Bay, Juneau (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

No mention of "Echo", "Ranch", "Bible", nor "Camp". Was created as a redirect by the closing admin of its AfD (after deleting the rest of the history??). The AfD, bearing in mind, received 6 votes to delete, 2 to merge, 2 to keep, yet not a soul suggested to redirect it without a mention, but that's exactly how the AfD was closed as. It looks like the admin deleted the page, created it again as a redirect, and said that "nothing is worth merging, but feel free to add it to Auke Bay, Juneau if you want". Nothing was added. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 22:38, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete. Nothing was merged because even by 2008 standards, there was nothing worth merging and I don't see anything online now that indicates this camp merits a mention in the town's article. It was probably borderline G12, although it was in quotations so not technically a copyvio. Star Mississippi 00:40, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Disputed Kings and Queens of Narnia → Narnia (world)#Narnia and Narni, Italy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

There are no disputed kings or queens at the target article. "King" appears never, "Queen" appears once, "Disputed" appears never. Existed for 2 weeks in May 2005 as a list of 10 names created in one edit with no other context. This was apparently merged, but I don't see any trace of any of these names even by July 2005? Does not seem to be needed or useful nearly 20 years later. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 22:06, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete. Not only have we not used this list before, it's also straight-up inaccurate; the only other source I can find that has a list of the kings and queens of Narnia is here, and of that, the only match at *all* between the two lists is that Swanwhite appears twice as Swanwhite I and Swanwhite II, Jadis is on there with the same ruling years of 900-1000, and... Miraz at the very end. That's about it. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 22:26, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Chief harbourmaster → Harbourmaster (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

No mentions of "chief" at the target page. While harbourmasters do have the ability to be [chief] harbourmasters, mentions of this term on Wikipedia can be navigated like so: "Person X was the chief harbourmaster, who...". There wouldn't be a need to add "chief" to the title itself, as we have no content about chief harbourmasters on Wikipedia. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 21:07, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep. Harmless; this mostly gets someone where they'd want to go, and I don't think there would be much reason to take them somewhere else. I'd like to note that the history indicates that this is the result of a rather interesting sort of BLAR/merge-- it was *ported to Wiktionary* (presumably because the old article was a WP:DICDEF), then BLAR'd entirely when the Wiktionary page it was moved to ended up (presumably) deleted. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 21:47, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep Harmless and points to the right place. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 00:55, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep - A mention at the target is desirable, but not strictly required to be useful. This is just one of those cases where it's not required. A person searching for this wants to know what the job is, and will learn about harbourmasters at the targeted page. It's not a stretch to ask them to put 2 and 2 together to figure out what it means to stick the word "chief" in front of the job title. Fieari (talk) 06:52, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep as a recognised position that will be searched for, but doesn't merit a stand-alone article (or one hasn't been written yet). Chief Accountant is the same, and not specifially mentioned in Accountant either. - Davidships (talk) 14:11, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Brut up → Brut (cologne) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not mentioned at target. Was tagged as A11 immediately but was converted into a redirect as an alternative to deletion. This phrase bears no intentional mentions on all of Wikipedia. People who want to search for the cologne would be using the title of the cologne, not the act of applying it. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 20:43, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete as per nom. A quick Google search (to see if this was the result of an ad campaign) only mentioned alcohol, with the top result being an IPA made to taste like brut wine, made by a company whose only mention on Wikipedia is an entry on the DAB for Against the Grain, and (pointed to by the DAB), an nonlink entry on List of breweries in Kentucky.

Brain sex → Causes of gender incongruence (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

No mention of "Brain sex" at target article. Without a definition at the page, this becomes confusing, especially so with the existence of a Brain Sex redirect, which exists for a topic that we do have content on. Because this seemingly isn't covered/defined anywhere else on Wikipedia at this time (besides content about "brain/sex differences", an entirely different topic), this should either be a redirect back to David Jessel#Publications (which is where it targeted from 2009 to 2021) or a red link to encourage article development. Or content added somewhere. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 20:21, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

This could be refined to Causes of gender incongruence#Brain structure. @Utopes:, this is referring to the idea that transgender or nonbinary people could have brain features that are atypical of their birth sex. Kk.urban (talk) 22:47, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Refine as per Kk.urban. I'm not entirely onboard with the idea presented in this article (and the section does need some cleanup), but the refinement does pipe readers where they want to go. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 04:20, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Academic School → Platonic Academy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 October 24 § Academic School – no consensus

The title "academic school" is not mentioned at the target. People searching for Plato's Academy have a plethora of more viable redirects, than something as generic as "academic school". If never referred to as this, this doesn't seem helpful.

Schools seem to generally be academic by default? With a variety of schools at School (disambiguation) about all sorts of non-academic topics, someone might try to specific "academic school" as a specific adjective to end up at School. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 19:50, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Comment: as I noted in the previous discussion, linked above, "Academic School" is one of the alternative names of the subject. If it's not mentioned, it probably should be. It's not clear to me that anyone searching for this title expects to find modern schools that are academic, as opposed to non-academic, but if so that can easily be addressed with hatnotes. This strikes me as a solution in search of a problem. P Aculeius (talk) 11:57, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[]

I've added this and other names to the lead, along with a hatnote pointing to "school", in case anyone searching for that arrives at Plato's Academy by mistake after following this redirect. I don't think it'll happen that often, but now there's a link to "school" if it does. And now "Academic School" is mentioned at the target. P Aculeius (talk) 12:27, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep, now that there's a mention at the target. Thanks to P Aculeius for adding it. CycloneYoris ^talk! 21:49, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Borgarthings-Lov → Borgarting (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Appears to be a code of laws presumably associated with the Borgarthings thing. Not mentioned in the article. I expect it would be appropriate to add, but while not present the redirect is confusing. Mentioned briefly at Blót, but I don't think redirecting there is appropriate either, as it's just given as an example in a list. Rusalkii (talk) 17:29, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

List of Barbie: Dreamtopia episodes → Barbie Dreamtopia (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This title was created by a banned user for a supposed batch of episodes for the target indicated, which later turned out to be a series of shorts. Half a decade later, this title serves no purpose as it's currently and merely a redundant redirect, so requesting deletion. Intrisit (talk) 16:21, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep the target includes a list of episodes of Barbie:Dreamtopia. Thryduulf (talk) 18:06, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[]
By looking at the article, the "episodes" are split; whether it's the shorts or the series. If they were there, I wouldn't have listed this entry here. Intrisit (talk) 16:47, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[]
I'm not sure quite what you are saying in your most recent comment. If you are arguing the episodes should be a stand-alone list then that's something to discuss on the article talk page, if that gets consensus then the redirect can simply be overwritten. It's true that people could be looking for either the shorts or the web series, but whichever it is they will find that content at the target (it's why I didn't recommend refining the redirect to point at a specific section). Thryduulf (talk) 17:15, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[]
Please, this is the page for discussion - not argument, so I'm surprised to see a text from you saying "I'm arguing..." For layman's context sake, the "they" word in "If they were there,..." means the episodes in question. As I said in my nomination, this rdr was created but it currently serves no purpose - as in it points to which portion within the target article? The shorts or the series? That is the question behind this nomination. Also, to prove my position, have you looked at the target article thoroughly? I listed this entry here to see, get and gain consensus on the redirect title's worthiness in the average WP visitor's mind since its creation. Even if you did help point this redirect to its specific section within the target article as you're stating, the content in that target article has changed so much to the point where it would like bordering on the trajectory of the numerous rdr nominations you've commented and/or voted on. Simply put, we have no clear path where to fit this rdr other that it been redundant, to which I call for deletion. Intrisit (talk) 20:19, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[]
I am using the word "argue" in the sense of "presenting a viewpoint" not "have a quarrel". As for the rest of your comment, I have explained why, in my view, the title is a useful search term and that the current target is the correct one. Both the shorts and the series would be equally plausible things for people to be looking for, but by targetting the top of the article they will see the TOC and can pick whichever one they are interested in. Thryduulf (talk) 21:17, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep, the redirect is useful per Thryduulf. Disagree that the redirect serves no purpose because it does not point to a section. The nomination is not clear on why it is a redundant redirect. Jay 💬 16:52, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]
I'm citing most article titles with the "List of ... episodes", some of which are redirects to their main articles, as my clear rationale of it being redundant, although true it doesn't point to a specific section in-article. Also citing WP:G5, stating a "creation by a blocked or banned user", no matter how useful. Intrisit (talk) 06:22, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[]

I still don't get the "redundancy" argument. It appears you are saying that "List of ..." titles that point to its corresponding article, but not to a section, are redundant. How? The creation of the blocked user was already deleted. This is a remnant redirect from a page move, now pointing to a different article, hence not a strong case for G5. Jay 💬 17:06, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Keep - Target contains exactly what this page used to, this is basically a redirect from merge. Not to mention that the title is unambiguous as to what it points to. If you REALLY want to get nitpicky, you could refine it to the section, but I don't really see that being necessary. Fieari (talk) 07:24, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[]
Per the history of this rdr, this/there is no merge. If I could refine this rdr to its specific section as you're stating, I wouldn't have listed this here in the first place. Intrisit (talk) 06:26, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete! → Cyberman (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The word "delete" is only mentioned once in passing, never with an exclamation point, and never referred to as a possible chant of such word. Because the word "delete" is very often stated on its own, as a command verb, this stylization I feel can be used in many other contexts present on the Delete disambiguation page. There is currently not a strong justification from the Cyberman article's content to prioritize this usage over the others. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 01:48, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete! (Or perhaps retarget to Delete Deletion itself, as an {{R from avoided double redirect}}edit at 14:47, 24 March 2024 (UTC), but I couldn't pass up the opportunity.) 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 05:15, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[]

IIRC there is at least one episode of Doctor Who, possibly "Rise of the Cybermen", where the Cybermen use the imperative "Delete!" in much the same way that Daleks say "Exterminate!" in other episodes. But there is no mention of it in our article Cyberman. So Retarget to Deletion (the current destination of Delete). --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 10:50, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[]
Youtube does indeed have a couple instances of this, with the two scenes I linked coming from "Rise of the Cybermen" and (I *believe* given it depicts Cybermen being pitted against Daleks) "Doomsday". That said, it shows up a lot less compared to the Dalek's cry to Exterminate!, presumably due to either A.) it only showing up in the newer series, potentially as a deliberate parallel to Exterminate!, and/or B.) the Cybermen themselves being a lot less interested in flat-out extermination, wanting instead to assimilate populations into the Cybermen.

Retarget to Deletion per Redrose. I explicitly do not endorse the WP:PANDORA rationale because, just like pretty much every other WP:OTHERSTUFF and WP:CRYSTAL-based !vote it is not relevant to the discussion. Thryduulf (talk) 18:01, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete! unless its mentioned at the current target or Rise of the Cybermen. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:55, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Retarget to Deletion per Redrose (I remember the episode too, and thought it was strange, since it hasn't taken off, it probably isn't the primary topic). 🌺 Cremastra (talk) 13:49, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[]

For the record, this is a bad article to cite, see User:Lunamann/Please, put Pandora back in the box. Also, for the record, I'm going to refine my vote up there to specifically Retarget as per Redrose.

Delete per nom Okmrman (talk) 02:12, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[]

EXTERMINATE - I find it implausible someone would look for the punctuated term in the first place, and the pageviews seem to bear that out, with ~5 hits every five days or so. Confusion with other, equally-plausible search targets per Redrose also leads me to think deleting it is better. If someone's looking for deletion, Delete works just as well and doesn't include the bang. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{Source assessment notes} 04:21, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[]

The history is possibly the most 2005 of them all, created in 6 edits by an editors' only 6 edits. However, it has dubious usefulness as a redirect here.

Delete as per nom. Seems to denote :] or :[, which can indeed be emoticons, but I'm not sure this 'spelling out' of an emoticon is a useful and plausible search term? ...What, is it meant for people searching for emoticons using speech to text??

Keep. Very clearly takes people to the content they are looking for, it's not ambiguous or in the way of anything else so it's both helpful and harmless. Thryduulf (talk) 12:42, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Luxury Home → Real estate (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Luxury homes → Category:Luxury real estate (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

After the merging of Luxury real estate into the general article, the redirect of "luxury home" does not appear to be super useful as it does not bear a mention at any location. Additionally, while the plural version may indicate "multiple homes" being sought, it doesn't seem specific enough to target something besides what the singular version does. Looking at these two options side by side in the search bar, it's a shot-in-the-dark for readers to figure out where each'll go. Perhaps there's a better alternative, because neither status quo seems necessary currently. (I'll mention that "luxury homes" was repointed to the category in 2020 by a user later blocked for NOTHERE). Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 06:55, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Is the "merge", then, a back-door delete? I've seen this done before, deliberately or accidentally. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 21:51, 12 March 2024 (UTC).[]

@Rich Farmbrough: Thanks for the catch! To clarify, were you referring to the merge of luxury real estate, or luxury home? As this only concerns the "home" titles, there shouldn't be any issue that loses the luxury real estate history, and wouldn't be a backdoor delete of that, unless there was something else that you were referring to. The other title of Luxury Home had a miniscule existence before becoming a "Luxury real estate" redirect, although admittedly I did not catch that in my first go with this nom (I was mainly looking at the lowercase two, and then bundled the uppercase once I realized it existed). Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 06:19, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Restore and renomenate Luxury real estate? Paul is right in that I don't see much policy-based reasoning, either-- the nominator's only given argument was that Luxury hotel was a redirect to hotel, and he got one WP:PERNOM, and one vote that mentioned the idea of adding a section to Real estate discussing luxury real estate, which... wasn't done, before it was closed with only those two votes. No consideration seemed to be given to the actual article, which... seemed pretty okay, at least to my eyes? (Also, since we're technically here to discuss Luxury home, Luxury Home, and Luxury homes, target all three back to Luxury real estate when it gets restored.)

Keep first two, and retarget Luxury homes to Real estate for now (reverting the 2020 change by a now-blocked user). Also tag it as an avoided double redirect to Luxury real estate (as I have done for the first two). Whatever action is pursued regarding the former article (usually the case should be raised with the closing admin before going to DRV), this should help ensure that the redirects are taken care of should it be restored. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:05, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Redirect to Perseverance of the saints. It is already listed as an alternative name there. Preservation and perseverance are treated as rough synonyms at both Perseverance of the saints and Conditional preservation of the saints. Perseverance of the saints is the "default," and is understood to mean unconditional perseverance/preservation of the saints (Perseverance of the saints is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for Preservation of the saints). If anyone can find reliable sources where "Preservation of the saints", on its own, means "Conditional preservation of the saints", that might support the suggestion to dabify, but I do not believe that is common usage (I just googled to check). I 100% agree that it should not redirect to Eternal security. --JFHutson (talk) 16:52, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Sam Boughton → Electoral district of Terrigal (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Useless redirect. We never have articles for failed candidates unless they are notable, not even as redirects to the seat they failed to win. If we do have articles for failed candidates who haven't been elected to any office prior to failing to be elected then again they have to be notable (e.g Katherine Deves is notable because of her outspoken controversial views and her political activism, plus her preselection itself was controversial). Sam Boughton isn't notable and he was Labor's unsuccessful candidate for Terrigal (a seat the Liberals retained). I'm not sure why this article was even created in the first place but I think it should be deleted per notability guidelines and for consistency with every other article. 37.0.81.236 (talk) 23:59, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[]

  Yes, and done. For future reference you can use the days=n parameter of the rfd template to do this automatically, n is number of days before the current day the redirect was nominated, e.g. for to tag a redirect nominated yesterday (or to add a redirect to a discussion on yesterday's page) use {{subst:rfd|days=1|content=....

@Utopes So... you're seeing utility in navigating readers to these two topics, but would prefer for the internal search engine to do that instead of short-circuiting to one of the two? Why? --Joy (talk) 14:55, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Both smiling emoticons, frowning emoticons, and slash emoticons are discussed at both the general emoticon page, and at the list of emoticons page. Among this particular set where the emoticons are structured nearly identically, the difference in targets does not seem expectable. Nothing about ":-/" would make someone think they were going to a list instead of the general page about emoticons. While still ongoing, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 March 11#XD (Emoticon) has signaled that the overarching list might be a preferable target for individual emoticon redirects.

No mention of the word "burnie" at the target article. To that effect, there is only one mention of "burnie board" on Wikipedia, which is in the List of buildings designed by architect John Dalton, as the Burnie Board Residence and Administration Building.

Comment the history of the camelcase redirect contains an external link [2] which explains the connection "A 1960s advert for Burnie Board – it appeared in an Australian magazine in 1963. [...] 'Burnie Board' is a type of hardboard or Masonite. The Burnie Paper Mill (1937–2010), Burnie, Tasmania, produced paper, high-grade sawn timber and sheet material like 'Burnie Board'" and multiple other web hits also back up that it was also a type of or similar to masonite, but everything seems to indicate it was a product only or primarily of the 1950s-60s so I would expect most reliable sources to be offline.

"Burnie" appears at zero locations throughout the article, "burnie board" is never implied, and a mention does exist at List of buildings designed by architect John Dalton for a different topic.

Delete. An advert is not a reliable source, and because it seems to be a specific brand, it would make incorporating it into the target tricky.

Delete unless better solution found. This, admittedly, is an {{R with history}}-- it was a 2007 era article stub, that was merged into Pern... which itself was BLAR'd at AfD for non-notability. I'd go into the old version of the Pern article to see if anything might be salvagable for re-merging into Dragonriders of Pern, to potentially have a sourced mention of Firestone at the Dragonriders article... but User:Sgeureka, when BLAR'ing the Pern article, also deleted its history?? I didn't even know that that was possible, most BLARs I've seen retain the history...

Given the alternative-- the 2007era stub that was merged into Pern-- was an unsourced stub and thus has little if anything of value, I can't truly recommend keeping. Not that we should have this anyways, per WP:CRUFT... 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 16:22, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[]

The article creation was reverted, making "Eddie Wu" a redirect to Wu Kuang-yu, and a bot "fixed" the double redirect, which now points to a target that's clearly wrong. —Mx.

The result of the discussion was speedy keep. Nominator withdrew. No one thinks that this redirect defined by this name and this target should not exist. The nomination rationale was that under the redirect there was a copy of the entire contents of the deleted article that the redirect had previously targeted, and the outcome of the AfD was that the page history should remain deleted. The revisions containing said copied content were deleted: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&logid=161249708. WP:RD1 was cited.

Catherine, Princess of Wales cancer diagnosis → Catherine, Princess of Wales#Health (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The creator of this redirect created this among over 20 others pointing to the now deleted page, "Where is Kate?" All but a couple of these have now been deleted under WP:G8 because the target was deleted. But in this case, I felt that this redirect (and one other) were reasonable search terms that should redirect to Catherine, Princess of Wales#Health, and made that change. However, this one is problematic, because the creator of the redirect twice copied in the page history from the deleted article and immediately reverted it on this page. This page history therefore contains a WP:COPYWITHIN (one of which had to be repaired) from a deleted page, and the terms of the attribution license may not be met, as the attribution has now been deleted for everyone except for admins. I would not object to this being deleted and immediately recreated, but I do think the redirect should be deleted. I note that while I felt the redirect was reasonable, it is certainly not necessary. Anyone trying to type this text into search will find the target article before they finish typing, and if they search the full name without a redirect, the target page will be the first hit.

Thanks. I apologise for my lack of clarity. The reason for listing here is primarily to get the history deleted. Usually a redirect with history is retained, as the history is the work of someone, properly attributed per the creative commons attribution license. In this case the history is not properly attributed, and should not have been copied there. It represents a breach of the license under which we share our work on Wikipedia. So deletion and recreation is fine with me, but doing nothing is not, because it leaves an unattributed COPYWITHIN. Thanks again for your consideration. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:20, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

This is supposedly another name for this fire. I could not find any evidence of this externally. Onwiki did not particularly help, as not only is this title not mentioned at the article, it is also not mentioned anywhere on Wikipedia! I did a search and almost all my results were for "Comozant"; gave this a look on Wikipedia and got nothing. From there I refined my search to just "Comazant", and the only thing I got for all of the first page of my search engine was Comazant being the publisher of a book titled "Captured" by India Blake. Nothing about the fire. And at the end of the day, with zero mentions on Wikipedia including at the target, this title would not be helpful to readers who are left confused about the relationship between St. Elmo's fire and Comazant, as no connection is established between them.

As for the article issues, those concerned may just want to revert the article to the last good version before the extensive COI edits on 24 January 2022. --Paul_012 (talk) 05:39, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Was making an offhand comment about this topic being "central", I'm sure there's a lot of groups/food halls that are central but this just happens to be the central and it's actual name, yea. None of that actually matters to the RfD so I've now strucketh, was interested in the central organization topic/idea. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 06:54, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Bitness → Word (computer architecture) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The suffix of "ness" does not appear at the target article, and by extension neither does "Bitness". Without a definition this term does not currently feel like a great fit as a redirect. "Bitness" has mentions across wikipedia in various scenarios, and also a Wikt:bitness entry, but perhaps staying on WP-side is more preferable for this term. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 03:22, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[]

My guess had ben the bit numbering used in the documentation (1-wordlength, worlength-1, 0-(wordlength-1), (wordlength-1)-0), but that's not how Wikt:bitness defines it. I would say tha either bitness should redirect to an article or section that defines bitness, or the redirect should be removed. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 13:50, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[]

There is no ness in the whole article. Seems to me that bitness is short for Bit endianness which is a redirect to Bit numbering#Order. Since redirects aren't supposed to redirect to a redirect (though I am not sure why) seems that it should redirect to Bit_numbering#Order. I will let someone else actually do it, though.

Comment my first impression is this should be about endianess; however a websearch indicates this term is defined as the basic CPU architecture word size; or the word-size used by compiled software (ie. 16-bit program) -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 07:47, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Soft redirect to Wiktionary. The topic will never amount to more than a WP:DICDEF, and we have no article we could link to that provides one. It is a legitimate term in computer science jargon, so deletion would be inappropriate, given the existing Wiktionary entry. It has an entry in Barron's Dictionary of Computer and Internet Terms, 10th edition, 2009, ISBN 978-0-7641-4105-8: the property of using a specific number of bits. For example, a single-precision integer and a double-precision integer differ in bitness. Bloomsbury's Dictionary of Computing appears to also have an entry, but I couldn't verify directly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paradoctor (talk • contribs) 17:06, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Antiscarp → Scarp (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Scarplet → Scarp (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

A term not mentioned at the target disambiguation page. In an effort to possibly boldly retarget, I confirmed that "antiscarp" was not mentioned at any of the pages listed at the dab. It was not. I searched onwiki for any mentions of "antiscarp", and the only related definition I could find was two pages that said "antiscarp, or an uphill-scarplet". Great! So I just have to target antiscarp to wherever scarplet points! I search that, and "scarplet" is an unmentioned redirect to the same disambiguation page. No use of "scarplet" at any of the linked pages either. Basically, this is a circular cross-definition of scarplet and antiscarp, only used to refer to each other, point at the same disambiguation, and are unmentioned everywhere else on Wikipedia. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 02:44, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Crosswiki to wiktionary - [8] is more useful than anything we currently have on wikipedia, I think. Google also says that antiscarp is the name of a record label, presumably a small non-notable one. If it becomes notable, the wiktionary link could become a hatnote. Fieari (talk) 07:35, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[]

Disorganized → Chaos theory (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I was surprised by this redirect because a thing does not have to be a chaotic system (in the sense of chaos theory) to be "disorganized". Maybe retarget to wiktionary? (I was hoping we had an article on the general concept of chaos, but I don't think we do.) Duckmather (talk) 06:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete Physical chaos is not disorganized. Johnjbarton (talk) 17:17, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Delete Ultimately, it's a vague search term and I don't think there is a good target for it. None of Order, Disorder, Order and disorder or Randomness seem like good fits to me, as the meaning of the word is too narrow for the DAB pages and too broad for the articles. I'm not sure when soft redirects to Wiktionary are appropriate, but I remember reading somewhere that its a way to salt redirect pages that are deleted and recreated as redirects. I don't think that's the case here. ― Synpath 06:02, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[]

Family Ties (Fat Joe album → Family Ties (Fat Joe and Dre album) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Was created as a duplicate article in one edit, converted into a redirect in the next (by the person who was creating the set of pages for this album). There does not seem to be any history worth salvaging from this implausible redirect. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 01:19, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]

On a related, unrelated note: It looks like Family Ties (Fat Joe and Dre album) was converted into an article in 2019 (from a redirect), and was the source of a BLAR with Family Ties (Fat Joe album), which was created in 2018 and contains earlier history. At least, that's for the page titles NOW, which shifted during a 2020 round robin swap. In either situation, it looks like the correctly-titled version was already an article that existed, seemingly, as the history from Family Ties (Fat Joe album) (currently a redirect) predates the error(?)

Another set of lowest viewed redirects that are missing a closing parenthesis. None of these titles have an affinity for missing parentheses, making this batch unpredictable and implausible to seek and spell. None of these titles have substansive history, and have never contained content. They have only existed as redirects. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 00:56, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[]
