The result of the discussion was Withdrawn. My reasoning for deletion is not suitable in hindsight. (non-admin closure) Utopes (talk / cont) 17:40, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just a high school's publication. Not a likely search term. Utopes (talk / cont) 23:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to global warming -- JHunterJ (talk) 16:03, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Should the capitalized variant target the same page as the lowercase variant, or should the two redirect point to the same target? I feel like the latter should be the case, as "climate change" is sometimes referred to as a proper noun for the phenomena. Utopes (talk / cont) 23:32, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to global warming per nom. — J947 [cont] 04:18, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget - I'm not too sure about this one, but the argument that this ought to go to 'global warming' as the concept is sometimes referred to as a proper noun with such capitalization makes a lot of sense. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 04:20, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to climate change Of the participants so far, I am the most experienced in the climate pages. There is a vast and complex backstory in the saga over article scope at main articles covering the topics of "climate change" (presently under title "Climate change (general concept)" and that of contemporary warming of average global surface temperature and its related effects, causes, and human responses (presenting under title "Global warming"). If this is retargeted anywhere OTHER than Climate change, then as this saga continues we'll hvae to come back to this one and maybe adjust it further. If instead we just point this at the same term written in sentence case, we can forever forget about this one. If the sentence variant is retargeted that redirect will pipe the user who comes here in stead to the new target. So regardless how its capitalized both pages will always end up at the same destination. I'd otherwise agree with the nom but that way increases odds of further attention being spent here. If we just point this at the other term, we will never need to revisit this one. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 13:20, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. Note these were picked up in a mass deletion of creations of a user globally locked for long term abuse. If anyone feels strongly enough that either of these (or their caps variants) should exist, feel free to recreate them, but please note the comments made in this discussion first. -- Tavix (talk) 19:03, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

More unit redirects Utopes (talk / cont) 22:24, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment – By the same editor who was creating many of these. Pity about the capitalization, and I cannot really see the value (it is unlikely as a search, and as a link editors should not be encouraged to use the incorrect capitalization by the existence of the link). If it is kept, it should be moved to lower case and the original deleted, IMO. —Quondum 23:05, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Highly implausible search term, and incorrectly capitalized at that. XOR'easter (talk) 23:17, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both - I'm not sure what to say. These simply aren't worth keeping due to their uselessness, as with the many other, similar redirects we've been talking about. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 04:28, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the first two. What exactly is wrong with them? These correctly describe in words the units used, noting that Kelvin, Watt (and Joule) are commonly capitalised words as they're named after people, and their abbreviations are capitals. And I don't think they're ambiguous. Delete the third, as an error (joule per cubic metre). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:17, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Shhhnotsoloud. I do not miss saying these units out loud but they do relate to their linked concepts (save for Toughness' redirect's error, in which case it should be renamed). --Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝) 17:44, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the third, as not only is it misspelled, but J m-3 is also the unit for energy density. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:40, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 08:25, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is more likely to be a misspelling of Emergency than Emergen-C. I don't think it's a particularly helpful typo to support, as it gets in the way of search box results. I would suggest deletion unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:24, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 19:16, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Searching online, it seems that RobGz and Anuel AA have worked together, but RobGz is not mentioned at the target article or anywhere else on Wikipedia. I would suggest deletion unless a sourced mention can be added. signed, Rosguill talk 19:21, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. No mention in target, so the redirect is not really helping a curious reader. Also does not appear to be mentioned anywhere else on Wikipedia, so all this redirect is doing is implying there's useful content that there isn't. ~ mazca talk 17:24, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 08:25, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Seizures" are only referenced as a passing mention at the article. There is no dedicated information on this subject at this page, so a redirect appears to be unnecessary here. However, I can imagine that this is a likely search term, so I would not be opposed to retargeting. Utopes (talk / cont) 19:19, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete to encourage article creation. This is an important topic in mechanical engineering, and we have no good target. Lack of lubrication is only one possible cause of seizure. Another is bearing failure. Still another is differential thermal expansion. Tribology would be a better target than lubrication, but it still isn't good enough. Narky Blert (talk) 03:11, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I believe that WP:REDLINK applies here. Agreed. 05:57, 16 April 2020 (UTC)CoffeeWithMarkets (talk)

The result of the discussion was delete. No need for a full discussion when there was a strong consensus for deletion in the previous discussion, and the capitalization had nothing to do with why it was deleted. -- Tavix (talk) 00:22, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions#Blackmail. (non-admin closure) feminist #WearAMask😷 07:41, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Proposing deletion. Although the redirect shortcut WP:BLACKMAIL was created as long ago as 2008, I first encountered it yesterday in reviewing an unblock request. I found it confusing, as "blackmail" does not reasonably describe the "no personal attacks" page or any subsection of that page. Redirect creator not notified because he/she retired in 2009.

Michael Fisher (disambiguation 2)

[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 move without redirect. Michael Fisher (disambiguation 2) will be moved to Mike Fisher (disambiguation) and Lions Gate (disambiguation 2) will be moved to Lionsgate (disambiguation) to preserve their histories as disambiguation pages for those titles. However, for Gorontalo (disambiguation)(2) it appears that for a long period Gorontalo and Gorontalo (disambiguation) co-existed as disambiguation pages, so there is no good place for the history to go, hence it will be deleted. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 08:38, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

These redirects were once disambiguation pages for the titles of their targets minus "(disambiguation)" (or related ones for the first and second, i.e., Mike Fisher and Lionsgate), which were later moved to get them away from incoming links to their targets. While these are interesting histories (found at [1], [2], and [3]) they only got 13-14 pageviews in the last 90 days...and might seem like search bar clutter, perhaps?

Since Westside Island (Sonic) also redirects to the same target, I think this one is unnecessary clutter. That one used to have article content - this one never did. This redirect had a grand total of 11 page views in all of 2019. – numbermaniac 15:01, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible partial diacritic omission of “Andúnië” 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 13:14, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, for people not terribly keen on diacritics, it's more than possible they'll get it half-right, and redirects are cheap. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:19, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Wïkîpędīǎ doesn't need yet more heavy metal umlauts; but redirects from missing diacritics are another matter. The last time I entered USA, Customs forcibly confiscated all my diacritics as unAmerican under 589 CFR 1073.5(c)(ii)(1b) or somesuch rule. I still bear the scars.

Comment. The novel may well deserve a page; I think I may have read it; it had some fame in its day. However, it's in that twilight zone where all the citations will only be in print and nothing will be online. Classic WP:SOURCESMUSTEXIST; so go find 'em.

According to this Wikia article, "Ashura" is an unofficial fan-created name given to a glitched version of Sonic you can get when you mess around in Debug Mode. Neither the name, nor the glitch, are mentioned in the target article. – numbermaniac 02:16, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
