*'''Delete or redirect''' to political violence. The current target article topics are very narrowly defined, so would exclude most left and right wing violence. It does not include for example state terrorism or violence that does not reach the level of terrorism. OTOH, all the sources I saw that referred to left and right wing violence used it as a synonym for left and right terrorism.

*'''Redirect''' to [[Political violence]] per nom, or delete. I also must admit, titling the discussion ''X-wing violence'' made it seem like the discussion was [[Star Wars]] related.

August 22

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on August 22, 2021.

The original picante sauce

This feels almost like an ad, especially given that the content at the target supporting the claim that Pace invented "picante sauce" appears very poorly sourced. Delete. signed, Rosguill talk 01:49, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

X-wing violence


Violence ≠ Terrorism (pedantically, Terrorism ⊆ Violence, maybe). Redirect both to Political violence. signed, Rosguill talk 01:44, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete or redirect to political violence. The current target article topics are very narrowly defined, so would exclude most left and right wing violence. It does not include for example state terrorism or violence that does not reach the level of terrorism. OTOH, all the sources I saw that referred to left and right wing violence used it as a synonym for left and right terrorism. TFD (talk) 02:20, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ish (slang)

Not mentioned at the target, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 01:27, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]


South African restaurants

None of these restaurants are mentioned at the target. In order to merit inclusion at the target, they would need to have an article, in which case these redirects should point at that article, not at the list, so they should be deleted. N.b. that some of these restaurant names are quite generic and exist in locations other than South Africa (e.g. Doppio Zero) signed, Rosguill talk 01:19, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all per nom, these aren't useful to readers in their current form and are currently also unverifiable. Elli (talk | contribs) 01:36, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't inhale

Not mentioned at target. Probably not useful as a redirect anyway, given that someone searching this up would presumably know it was Bill Clinton who said it - and someone who didn't wouldn't be well-served as currently there is no context as to why this redirects there.

Wikipedia:TR

There are many other reasonable and useful targets for this redirect than an essay that is still in user space. I was looking for WP:RM/TR, but other plausible targets exist as multiple hatnotes. Retarget or disambiguate. Mdewman6 (talk) 20:21, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as there's a significant number of inbound links. While perhaps not the best target, I don't see how it's a severe enough issue to break a long-standing shortcut. Elli (talk | contribs) 16:57, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
