This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on January 2, 2021.

Café Voltaire

• Café Voltaire → Cabaret Voltaire  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

A redirect to a DAB page with no title matches. Delete to avoid confusion and to encourage translation of fr:Café Voltaire (linked in Paul Fort). Narky Blert (talk) 11:04, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

National capital territory

• National capital territory → Capital districts and territories  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

• National Capital Territory → Delhi  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delhi is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of these titles, because these are clippings of National Capital Territory of Delhi, which redirects to Delhi. Soumya-8974 (he) ^talk _contribs ^subpages 09:52, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• Note I've added National Capital Territory to this discussion as the nominator should have done when the nomination calls for synchronising redirects. Thryduulf (talk) 14:27, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
• Retarget to Delhi, as investigation has shown that (to my surprise) this is actually the clear primary topic. However, Soumya-8974 note that Delhi is not primary topic because the uppercase form redirects to it - indeed that logic would equally apply to the statement that the general page is primary topic because the lowercase form redirects there. Delhi is primary topic because nearly every result for the exact phrase "National capital territory" (with any capitalisation) in places other than Wikipedia is about Delhi.

• Retarget to Delhi per above. Obvious to anyone who lives in northern India. — kashmīrī ^TALK 14:41, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

ホン コン

• ホン コン → Japanese occupation of Hong Kong  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

According to the article, the name for Japanese-occupied Hong Kong was 香港占領地. 122.60.65.44 (talk) 07:39, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• Delete. ja:ホン コン doesn't exist. Narky Blert (talk) 11:06, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

East Nordic

• East Nordic → North Germanic languages  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Term not included in target. Hildeoc (talk) 02:11, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• Weak Keep. The 7th source in the article "On the origins of the Elfdalian nasal vowels from the perspective of diachronic dialectology and Germanic etymology" does use the phrase East Nordic, and it appears to be synonymous with East Scandinavian, which also redirects to North Germanic languages. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 03:24, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
• Keep and check the article history of there was some unnoticed blanking. Alternatively, this could become a disambiguation page, if somebody is willing to spend 20 minutes on researching it. I think "East Nordic" is mostly used in historical context, near synonymous to Old East Norse, but the term is also used geographically and ethnographically, as e.g. here. --dab (𒁳) 08:25, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
• Keep "Nordic languages" is mentioned in the lede of North Germanic languages as an alternative name. "East Nordic (languages)" consequently refers to the Eastern branch of the latter. The term "East Nordic languages" is not very common, but does appear in scholarly literature[1]. –Austronesier (talk) 14:28, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

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 speedy delete. Both WP:RFFL#Examples and WP:G5 here. Pete "wagahai wa neko de aru" AU aka Shirt58 (talk) 10:09, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• ネコ → Cat  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Cats have nothing to do with Japan. Also, this redirect was created by a pseron later blocked as sock. 122.60.65.44 (talk) 02:05, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• Delete As a WP:FORRED created by a sock. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 03:14, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
• Speedy delete as G5 since a quick look shows that the original account was already indefinitely blocked for vandalism before the sock crested this redirect.--65.92.160.124 (talk) 04:09, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

I have now tagged it.--65.92.160.124 (talk) 05:33, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• Speedy per G5. --Soumya-8974 (he) ^talk _contribs ^subpages 08:38, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Akira (2009 film)

• Akira (2009 film) → Akira#Live action film  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

There is no 2009 film named "Akira". It's also not mentioned on the targeted disambiguation page. Seventyfiveyears (talk) 02:38, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

• Redirect created as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Akira (2009 film). I think the intended target would now be Akira (planned film) as 2009 is one of the mentioned intended release dates, so probably retarget there. Alternatively could retarget to Akira (manga)#Related media. A7V2 (talk) 02:52, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, _signed, Rosguill ^talk 18:11, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

• Retarget to Akira (planned film) (article created 2019), where it's mentioned. That looks a more accurate target than Akira (manga), which was the result of that 2008 AFD. Narky Blert (talk) 11:20, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. --BDD (talk) 16:22, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

• Retarget to Akira (planned film)#Film rights and conception per those above, which covers the events leading to the delay and cancelation of the 2009 film. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 03:28, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
• Retarget per the above. Thryduulf (talk) 14:36, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
