April 5

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 5, 2021.

Family Guy (season seven)

Family Guy (season seven) → Family Guy (season 7) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Should be deleted. Nothing links to it, and seems to be the only Family Guy season number that is spelled out. sbb (talk) 18:53, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Next Untied Kingdom general election

Next Untied Kingdom general election → 2019 United Kingdom general election (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I don't know how plausible this redirect is, since Untied Kingdom general election doesn't exist. The redirect page only has 147 pageviews for 5 years, while "Next United Kingdom general election" has over 4 million pageviews. Also, I don't know if we should retarget to the correct target because it's not enough to justify the redirect. Seventyfiveyears (talk) 16:25, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Combichrist - Heat EP: All Pain Is Beat

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Combichrist - Heat EP: All Pain Is Beat → Heat EP: All Pain Is Beat (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not sure if this redirect was ever useful, but certainly not anymore now that the target is itself a redirect (due to lack of notability). Lennart97 (talk) 13:56, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete useless as a redirect since no-one is ever going to be searching for this album in the Wikipedia talk namespace. This could probably be G8'd as a talk page with no existing subject page. There is a misplaced draft in the page history, but since it was last edited in 2009 it would qualify for G13 deletion if moved into the draft namespace. The draft is entirely unsourced (and the article this used to target was sourced only to discogs) so if restored and moved to article space this version of the article may qualify for A9 deletion as well. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 14:05, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Douglas Robinson (athlete)

Douglas Robinson (athlete) → Douglas Robinson (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

A redirect to a DAB page with no relevant entry. He is linked in Allen Sangree. Delete to encourage article creation if justified. Narky Blert (talk) 13:54, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as R from incomplete disambiguation. I thinks it's reasonable to describe 2x cricketers and an ice hockey player as "athletes". Note that the French cricketer was at this title. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:45, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cake tin

Cake tin → Wellington Regional Stadium (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Cake Tin → Wellington Regional Stadium (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Cake-Tin → Wellington Regional Stadium (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Caketin → Wellington Regional Stadium (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I think people searching for these are more likley to be looking for an article on cake tins than an article on a stadium that was nicknamed "The Cake Tin" due to it's resembelence to one. Any search I do indicates that the cookware is the primary meaning of this phrase, but I'm unsure where to target these. Cookware and bakeware gives a general overview of the topic, especially in the Cookware and bakeware#Bakeware section, but there's also the spun out Mold (cooking implement) article, which could be a reasonable target 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:53, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support retargeting: there's no way a medium-sized regional stadium is going to be the primary target for such a common piece of kitchenware. ——Serial 13:45, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget all per nom to Cookware and bakeware#Bakeware, where there's a brief description. Narky Blert (talk) 14:01, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget at least the lower-case cake tin and caketin. Heh. I created Cake Tin in response to this May 2014 edit by the two-edit IP 49.181.184.62. Their other edit was at Talk:Wellington Regional Stadium#Cake tin. I restored the hatnote which had been removed in November 2015 by another IP, so be sure to remove that again if the proper name redirects are retargeted as well. – wbm1058 (talk) 15:58, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget Cake tin to Cookware and bakeware#Bakeware. Delete Caketin and Cake-Tin as nonsense/unlikely search terms. Keep Cake Tin as a legitimate use at that capitalisation. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:50, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ヒノマルクラゲ

ヒノマルクラゲ → Rhodaliidae (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

ボウズニラ → Rhizophysidae (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

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

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

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

To be deleted. Seems to be obvious foreign language clutter in enwiki: Estopedist1 (talk) 12:49, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Estopedist1: I've fixed this malformed nomination and tagged the redirects for you. Could you please read the instructions on how to do bundled nominations properly at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion#How to list a redirect or discussion? When you nominate more than one redirect in a discussion they all need to be tagged and put in an RfD2 template, you can't just stick them in a bullet point list at the end of the nomination. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 13:06, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Portable farm

Portable farm → Shipping container (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I can't figure out the connection between this redirect and it's target, I assume someone built a farm in a shipping container at some point? The only mention of farming in the target is a sentence saying shipping containers are used for transporting farm produce 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:39, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I can't either. Enwiki has nothing on "portable farm". I fixed the 2x incoming links. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:55, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete After searching I think the connection is that the company Freight Farms decided to use to use shipping containers for year long farming and I managed to find one article that referred to them by the term portable farm [[1]]. However, I haven’t found any other articles referring to these containers by this name nor does the Freight Farms article use that term either. In fact, I found more links for a VR farming simulator on Steam.--67.70.101.238 (talk) 20:37, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Volkswagen Volkswagen e-up!

Volkswagen Volkswagen e-up! → Volkswagen Up#e-up! (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Implausible typo, I can't find any evidence that the spelling with double volkswagen is in common use 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:36, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wave and tidal power

Wave and tidal power → Wave power (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

WP:XY. Readers searching for this could be looking for Wave power or Tidal power, which are two different technologies. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:32, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Renewable energy. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:59, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Modern Painter

Modern Painter → List of modern artists (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Modern Artists → List of modern artists (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete. Uncapitalised versions Modern painters, Modern painter, Modern artist, Modern artists do not exist. Modern Artist does not exist, and Modern Painter is possibly ambiguous with the article Modern Painters. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 11:52, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cimarron (people)

Cimarron (people) → Cimarron people (Panama) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This long-standing redirect may be wrongly targeted to a specific use: is Maroons (the target of Cimarrones) a better target for a more general use? Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 11:30, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This could go either way. I think it's okay as is, but can see the change. I added a mention of maroons to the lede of the Cimarron people (Panama) article, which helps direct someone who might have been looking for that article. Carter (talk) 13:42, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not (organizations)

Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not (organizations) → User:CorporateM/Advice for editing articles on organizations (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete as it should be a red link so people don’t think it’s a current policy at the places it’s currently linked from. See linked discussion: [2]. Sorry, tough editing. 50.201.195.170 (talk)

Comment: Fixed malformed nomination that was added by 50.201.195.170. CycloneYoris ^talk! 10:55, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The redirect is misleading as this is not a part of the WP:What Wikipedia is not policy and is instead an essay. The page was blanked by it's creator on the 25th of Feb, so this is borderline WP:G8 as the content it points to no longer exists. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 13:13, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

13256278887989457651018865901401704640

13256278887989457651018865901401704640 → AACS encryption key controversy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2007 May 22 § 13256278887989457651018865901401704640 → AACS encryption key controversy – keep

This is the decimal representation of 09F9 et cetera. Anyone searching for the number would search for either its hexadecimal or binary form, not decimal. O.N.R. ^(talk) 10:19, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Strange as it may be, the decimal redirection is as useful as its hexadecimal counterparts. See the Pageviews analysis for the redirection pages. – Fuzzy – 10:35, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Fuzzy, and because a few sources do seem to give the key in decimal (just copy it into your favorite search engine to see). Anyway, redirects are cheap. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 19:56, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: normally I hate this type of seemingly-ephemeral cruft, but if a search engine hits this number and redirects to a useful page about the information, that's definitely keep-worthy. sbb (talk) 20:23, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

General Luna Avenue

General Luna Avenue → San Mateo, Rizal (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

General Antonio Luna Avenue → San Mateo, Rizal (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Gen. Luna Avenue → San Mateo, Rizal (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The redirect, General Luna Avenue, with a complicated history, should be deleted. The article doesn't have a paragraph that's specific to the avenue itself. Originally it was a standalone article that was slapped with notability tag from 2009, then PROD-ed by Doghouse09 on August 25, 2020 (date in accordance with Philippine time zone), then de-PROD-ed by Djsasso on August 28, 2020 claiming it is a national road. However, it is not listed at the Philippine highway network (perhaps a national tertiary road, but even listed there it will still fail notability guidelines). It was finally redirected to San Mateo, Rizal on March 31, 2021 by Mccapra, citing notability issue. However, as I said earlier the target seems inappropriate, and it is better to have this deleted as there is no such article as "List of roads in Rizal", "List of roads in CALABARZON" or any similar list articles to retain it (unlike those that redirect today at List of roads in Metro Manila). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:52, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: this discussion also involves two other redirects that formerly redirected here (pinged the redirect creators per their edit histories, to add notice of RFD on those redirects shortly afterward): (@HueMan1:) (@Bluemask:) _ JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 03:57, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. There's no policy reason to delete. "Gen. Luna Avenue" has x4 mentions in the article and the nom hasn't suggested it's ambiguous. The circuar wikilinks in the article do need to be removed though. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 19:04, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Shhhnotsocloud: it will just get recreated and restore the same notability-tagged content. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 19:06, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Random sample

Random sample → Sampling (statistics) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Random samples → simple random sample (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Random sampling → simple random sample (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I think these two redirects should probably point to the same target, since one is just the plural of the other, but I'm unsure which target is better. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:17, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Set indexify with Simple random sample, Systematic random sample, Stratified random sample, Cluster random sample, and probably others. As a quicker solution, could instead target both to Sample (statistics) (yes, apparently that is a separate article from Sampling (statistics)), but I don't think that article really articulates the differences and searchers probably are seeking something more specific anyway. Unfortunately the relevant articles do not follow a consistent title format, with some including "sample" and others including "sampling" but that's an issue for requested moves. Mdewman6 (talk) 01:48, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I added Random sampling that should be treated similarly to the others. Mdewman6 (talk) 02:57, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Re/target all to Sampling (statistics) which is a generic article with several sections relating to different possibilities. A separate SIA is not required: in fact a third article to Sample (statistics) and Sampling (statistics) might just make the confusion worse. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 11:59, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Agree Re/target all to Sampling (statistics), which is the article that covers the concepts well. Newystats (talk) 10:29, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Was about to close this as a retarget, but then I noticed that two different targets are being discussed here: Sample (statistics) and Sampling (statistics). Which one is more appropriate?

Dark Lakitu

Dark Lakitu → Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This is a non-notable enemy who isn't mentioned at the target article. It was mentioned at Lakitu until July 2007, but hasn't been mentioned since that time, so I'm not sure about retargeting that redirect there. I'm leaning towards deletion unless a mention can be added somewhere. Regards, SONIC⁶⁷⁸ 05:16, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the fact that no one has no has brought up Dark Lakitu not being in the main Lakitu article for over a decade strongly indicates that no one is looking this up. The current target doesn’t work either since it’s a minor enemy not mentioned.--67.70.100.30 (talk) 05:21, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak retarget to Lakitu, where searchers will find some information related to the generic enemy. I wouldn't oppose outright deletion though. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 13:19, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rawk Hawk

Rawk Hawk → Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Rawk Hawk may have been the previous champion of the Glitz Pit, and had an article about him for almost one-and-a-half years before ShakespeareFan00 redirected it to List of characters in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door in July 2006. But alas, that was turned into a redirect itself, so I don't know if we should keep this thing lying around. I suggest we delete it unless someone can provide a justification. Regards, SONIC⁶⁷⁸ 02:47, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete while more relevant to the plot than the random enemies they have been nominated for deletion recently he is not mentioned in the target article.--67.70.101.238 (talk) 05:43, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BMZ GmbH

BMZ GmbH → Smart battery (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

A redirect from a random battery manufacturer to the article on smart batteries, where they are not mentioned in the article prose. Given the next edit of the redirect creator was to add an inappropriate external link to the companies website it seems it might have been made as part of a minor spam campaign. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:43, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I agree with the nominator, the redirect looks like a masked advertisement. Btw, the user who created the redirect was blocked for sockpuppetry.Less Unless (talk) 11:34, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to List of electric-vehicle-battery manufacturers where there was an ILL to BMZ [de], but I've just changed that to BMZ (German company) [de] because there are now several companies listed at BMZ. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 19:30, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Elastomeri

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

WP:FORRED. No connection between elastomers and the Italian language. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:53, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 00:35, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, or perhaps a misspelling of elastomeric. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 19:37, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Histereza

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

This is not a misspelling as the category tags suggest but is instead the Polish word for Hysteresis. Since there is no connection between Polish and Hysteresis I think this should be deleted, per WP:FORRED. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:03, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
