Revision as of 18:07, 30 March 2022
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 30, 2022.
Flag of Tanasi
- Flag of Tanasi → Flag of Tennessee (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
While the Cherokee town of Tanasi is the etymological namesake of the state of Tennessee, the state flag was only developed much later and was never used by Tanasi. Deletion seems appropriate, as there is no indication that Tanasi ever had a flag. signed, Rosguill talk 17:44, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- i wasnt even aiming to say that tanasi town had a flag but ok Kxeon (talk) 18:05, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Clean team
- Clean team → Virtual data room (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at the target, nothing illuminating came up in an internet search, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 17:36, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Here’s a link to the definition and how it relates to VDRs, though I appreciate this is not referred to in the article: https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=42ed02a6-2f19-4271-aa93-6f940d25367c (also, that page requests registration after a single view) — cBuckley (Talk • Contribs) 18:07, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Polaris FTV-5
- Polaris FTV-5 → MGM-29 Sergeant (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Polaris FTV-3 → Lockheed X-17 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at the targets, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 17:30, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Civil Court
See Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 February 25#Civil court, which retargeted Civil court to Civil law. This is just the capitalized version and should probably redirect to the same place. eviolite (talk) 17:25, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Retargetper nom consistent with Civil court. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:02, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Gender critical
- Gender critical → Feminist views on transgender topics#Gender critical feminism/trans-exclusionary radical feminism (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I would like this redirect to become an article in it's own right as the subject matter of the redirect does not encompass the subject sufficiently, they are two separate subjects. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maurice269 (talk • contribs) 13:54, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. The target of the current redirect is - for now - the proper outcome. The Feminist views on transgender topics#Gender critical feminism/trans-exclusionary radical feminism subsection is comprehensive, neutral, and well referenced, with over 20 references in the section. The mooted replacement was a dictionary definition and unreferenced opinion/WP:OR. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 14:04, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- I don't think you realise that they *are* different subjects, the Gender Critical point of view is not a part of feminism and many people who would call themselves Gender Critical would not consider themselves feminists. As such the original article mis-represents a subject which has become a community in it's own right. Without a dedicate page, it will force contributors to update the page specific to feminism with increasingly unrelated information solely related to the Gender Critical point of view, which will be confusing for readers. As to the contents of the replacement, without the time to be able to add to it without it being reverted, it's very hard to develop it to a point where it isn't just a definition. Maurice269 (talk) 14:26, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep for now. The "Gender Critical" ideology emerged from feminism, specifically from Radical Feminism, and its adherents still largely present it in that light, albeit with varying degrees of sincerity. The redirect gives a good account of what it is and there is no obstacle to it being expanded further. None the less, I am somewhat sympathetic to Maurice269's view. The rhetoric of "Gender Critical Feminism" has been taken up (again, with varying degrees of sincerity) by many who are unambiguously not feminists at all, even including some quite extreme social conservatives. Meanwhile, a majority of feminists, including many Radical Feminists, do not want anything to do with it for pretty obvious reasons. (Biological essentialism does not go down well in most feminist circles.) It is possible that it will become perceived as fully detached from feminism in the future and then the need for a split into a separate article will be justified. I don't think we are there yet. --DanielRigal (talk) 17:28, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Function(mathematics)
- Function(mathematics) → Function (mathematics) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete per WP:RDAB. The properly-spaced title is the redirect's target page. Steel1943 (talk) 08:43, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Speedy delete with {{Db-redirtypo}} per WP:R3. D.Lazard (talk) 09:51, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete this error. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:03, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Willie Foster
- Willie Foster → Bill Foster (baseball) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I redirected this to the Bill Foster DAB today but it was reverted by User:162 etc. because of the RMs, see Talk:Willie Foster (gridiron football). There was a clear consensus that the gridiron footballer wasn't primary but not that the baseball was primary. I suggest redirecting to the DAB. The 1st Google result is for Little Willy Foster. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:44, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep current primary redirect. There was indeed a long discussion about this at the above-linked RM, which identified that there are three possible targets for "Willie Foster":
- Bill Foster (baseball), a Hall of Fame pitcher. He was born William Hendrick Foster, usually commonly known as "Bill" but also as "Willie", as seen here [1] [2] [3] [4]. Obvious long-term notability in his case.
- Willie Foster (gridiron football), who played one game in 2007 for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Survived an AfD but barely meets WP:NGRIDIRON.
- Little Willy Foster, born Willy Foster, whose name is misspelled as "Little Willie Foster" in certain sources.
- I'm not aware of anybody else at Bill Foster or William Foster who is commonly known as "Willie Foster". Of these three then, we should ask if there is a primary topic. Based on pageviews [5] and long-term notability, it's clear that that is Bill Foster (baseball). The existing redirect and hatnotes should stay as-is. 162 etc. (talk) 22:04, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Given that neither Bill Foster nor Little Willy Foster is primarily referred to as "Willie", and that we do meanwhile have an article on someone who does primarily go by that name, even if they're much less notable, I think it's hard to say there's a clear primary topic. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 23:09, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 05:42, 23 March 2022 (UTC)- Tamzin makes a good point. Redirect to DAB. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 09:16, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jay (talk) 07:35, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Retarget to the dab per Tamzin. Thryduulf (talk) 09:06, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Space ethics
- Space ethics → Ethics of terraforming (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not equivalent, "space ethics" is a much broader and independently notable topic ([6], [7], [8]) that is currently primarily focused on the ethics of space debris creation and the ethics of going to space at all. I think deletion to encourage article creation is appropriate unless someone wants to get started working on a stub. signed, Rosguill talk 16:20, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. —Kusma (talk) 08:10, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- I created the redirect, if a redirect is hindering, then I gladly would write a stub. I have to add, that I have never started a stub, so help is welcome. Nsae Comp (talk) 14:18, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

-2 (number)
This redirect was tagged with a speedy deletion tag with no valid criteria offered. So I untagged it but I also question the usefulness of this redirect so I thought I'd send it to RFD for evaluation, if you can see a reason for its presence on Wikipedia. Liz Read! Talk! 00:50, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - no mention of minus/negative 2 at target. WP:RFD#DELETE number 10 may apply also. A7V2 (talk) 01:29, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - Along with the evidence above, there is probably no reason why the page was created in the first place. WikiMic talk 02:12, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment A dab −2 exists and might be the best target, but deletion seems a better option. -1 (number) correctly redirects to −1; -3 (number) redirects to 3 (why?); other -n (number) titles are redlinks. See also a recent RfD for −3…−10. Certes (talk) 11:33, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- I wonder why this redirect wasn't included in that RFD discussion but maybe the addition of "(number)" made it less visible to the nominator. Liz Read! Talk! 05:53, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- Bundle -3 (number) to this nomination. I don't see it different from the -2 (number) discussion. Jay (talk) 06:57, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Bundled -3 (number) and relisting for further input.

Frederik Kaarle I of Finland
- Frederik Kaarle I of Finland → Prince Frederick Charles of Hesse (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Entirely made-up name that is never used. DrKay (talk) 07:30, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment The fi.wp article says (transl.) "
The electoral document called Friedrich Karl by the name Fredrik Kaarle.[111]
" with the citation pointing to page 13 of Riitta Sihvonen's 1997 book Valtaistuin vapaana: Kysymys korkeimman vallan käytöstä Suomessa 1918–1919 which I don't have access to. Google books also has a bunch of hits for "Fredrik Kaarle". Based on the quotations in the fi.wp article, the name also seems to have been used by the Parliament of Finland at the time. So this seems to turn into a question of whether the "I of Finland" suffix is appropriate/relevant. -Ljleppan (talk) 08:28, 22 March 2022 (UTC) - Delete. I did some minor research on this topic a year or so ago, and I'm convinced that Kingdom of Finland (1918) should be moved or merged to something like "Attempt to establish a Finnish monarchy" or "Aftermath of the Finnish Civil War". The monarchy was a proposal, but it did not happen, and Finland was never a monarchy (despite the line currently in the lead section about "legally being a monarchy", which I don't believe to really be true). Fredrick Charles never accepted his Kingship of Finland nor even traveled to Finland at the time so his later renunciation of the title was more a "for the record" deal. Even if you accept Finland was a monarchy, they were a monarchy without a king. Lots of people are proposed as monarchs, but they need to actually rule to be monarchs. SnowFire (talk) 15:57, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- With respect, this isn't about whether Finland actually was briefly a monarchy, but whether the name Fredrik Kaarle I of Finland is valid, and therefore justifies the redir. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:09, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jay (talk) 07:06, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep As Ljleppan says, the official election documents did refer to Friedrich Karl as Fredrik Kaarle. The fiwiki article on him confirms this, citing another book, namely Anders Huldén's 1988 Kuningasseikkailu Suomessa 1918 (ISBN 951-26-2980-1). A quick search also nets a number of RS mentions from eg. YLE, Suomen Kuvalehti and Vasabladet, as well as Deutsche Biographie, all using the name Fredrik Kaarle. (Mind you, none of them append it with 'I of Finland', so if the point of this RfD was that specific part of the name, then I've no comment to offer.) --DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:27, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- The redirect isn't Fredrik Kaarle. It is Frederik Kaarle. So the name is wrong as well as the suffix. DrKay (talk) 16:40, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Tradewinds
- Tradewinds → Trade winds (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
If Tradewind is ambiguous—which has been the editorial consensus since 2006—then I think Tradewinds is as well. There's good reason to think that a reader spelling the term this way is looking for one of the eight entities called "Tradewinds" we disambiguate (or the one called TradeWinds), rather than for the concept of trade winds, usually spelled as two words. Thus I think we should retarget to Tradewind. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 05:38, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep trade winds is frequently written without the space [9][10], and is a clear WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT both by pageviews [11] and long-term significance. Tradewind should also arguably be moved to Tradewind (disambiguation) based on pageviews [12]. 61.239.39.90 (talk) 06:55, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Retarget per nom. Pageviews are meaningless when a redirect is ambiguous: it is conceivable that none of the readers who typed in "tradewinds" was looking for trade winds. Narky Blert (talk) 11:13, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Regarding pageviews, WikiNav would be the more useful thing to look at here, but for some reason it's not working (at least for me) for this page. If someone can show that "Tradewind" primarily means "Trade wind(s)"—its status as its own page dates back to a fancrufty page about Tradewind (The Incredibles)—I'd support moving that, keeping this redirect, and adding a hatnote at Trade winds (the last bit should happen in any keep outcome here). But Google, at least, suggests to me that that's not the primary meaning; if someone knows how to unb0rk WikiNav, that would be appreciated. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 17:07, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Retarget per nom and WP:PLURAL. Veverve (talk) 14:37, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: (WikiNav still not working.)

Frivolous
This is a common English word which doesn't really look like a likely search term for its current target (why would, of all things which could possibly be frivolous, someone be interested only in lawsuits? why not List of frivolous political parties or maybe even the specific legal jargon Frivolous or vexatious, or maybe just the adjective itself [although WP:NOTDICTIONARY is a thing]), nor a useful redirect to anywhere else either (for the same reasons: short of a soft-redirect to Wiktionary, something not usually done for common English words since we assume readers have at least basic English knowledge, there is no good reason to favour one of the many plausible target articles over the others) RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 02:04, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: Note that the noun form Frivolity redirects to Silliness. eviolite (talk) 12:12, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- At least there's not too many possible targets for the noun, and
behaviour that is silly and not serious, or things that are silly and not important
[13] is pretty much a synonym for silliness, so that one would be correct. Again, the adjective is quite in a different situation. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 15:15, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- At least there's not too many possible targets for the noun, and
- Delete as vague and ambiguous. The current target is misleading. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 13:29, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Target is misleading. Gusfriend (talk) 02:33, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
- Disambiguate between the various terms noted above. BD2412 T 00:34, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (EP)
- Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (EP) → Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Confusing: The target article's subject is not an extended play (the subject which the disambiguator "EP" seems to most commonly be used for), nor is there reference to an "EP" subject in the article. Steel1943 (talk) 06:23, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Having done a lot of investigation into this I'm baffled as to what the "(EP)" is intended to refer to, if it was "Ep" or "ep" then I'd guess it was intended to point to the Only Fools and Horses episode with this title, but that doesn't make sense when the disambiguator is capitalised (and also wouldn't be a good redirect). Thryduulf (talk) 09:04, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- This was part of the redirects that I was doing when trying to improve Wikipedia's coverage of UK top 40 singles, think I must have seen this down as an EP rather than single. Basically stopped editing because of the way I was made to feel by other editors. Still so many gaps in the coverage.

Genetics and skin disease
- Genetics and skin disease → Skin condition (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Potential WP:XY issue: Genetics and Skin disease represent two distinct topics, and the target article does not seem to represent a combination of the two topics. Steel1943 (talk) 06:10, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Pomeranian (dog breed )
- Pomeranian (dog breed ) → Pomeranian dog (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete per WP:RDAB, considering the space between the final word and the right parenthesis. In addition, the title with the proper spacing, Pomeranian (dog breed), is a redirect targeting the same page as the nominated redirect. Steel1943 (talk) 05:52, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Delete this error. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:06, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Empty map
- 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 withdrawn per Jochen Burghardt's addition since that resolves the concern. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 08:39, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Empty map → Function (mathematics)#empty function (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at the target article, leaving the connection between the redirect and the article unclear. Steel1943 (talk) 05:50, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. "Map" and "function" are often used synonymously in mathmatics (see Map (mathematics)), making it natural for Empty map to exist and point to the same place as Empty function. – Tea2min (talk) 07:47, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. per Tea2min's above argument. I meanwhile mentioned "empty map" in the target article, so the connection to the redirect should be clear now. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 08:21, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Speedy keep per above. D.Lazard (talk) 08:28, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page.
Insider Community Board
Not mentioned in the target article, leaving the connection between the redirect and the article's subject unclear. Steel1943 (talk) 05:20, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Online class
- Online class → Educational technology (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Online education → Distance education (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
In my opinion, these titles, along with Online learning, mainly refer to Distance education, particularly the recent subset of distance education that is online. I think this might be the primary topic, however, maybe others disagree. Do these terms refer to online technology that may be used while students are physically in a classroom? Is there a difference between the meaning of these terms? —Lights and freedom (talk ~ contribs) 04:03, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Weak target to the DAB, else Target both at Distance education. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 05:22, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
North-South divide in Scotland
- North-South divide in Scotland → Geography of Scotland#North-South divide in Scotland (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This redirect targets a section that has presumably been deleted. There is some discussion of a north-south divide in Scotland in Geography of Scotland#Political Geography so it could be retargeted to that section, not sure if anyone has any better ideas (potentially North-south divide in the United Kingdom but this article seems to discuss a divide between southern England and the rest of the UK, rather than more localised divides within the countries themselves). Bonoahx (talk) 12:31, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment When this was created in July 2008 it targetted North–South divide in the United Kingdom and was later refined to North–South divide in the United Kingdom#Noth-South divide in Scotland. In October 2009 that article was moved to North–South divide in England and the section about Scotland, which read in its entirety "See Scottish Highlands and Scottish Lowlands" was removed. There was a turbulent period in the history of the North–South divide in the United Kingdom title, and a bot reatargetted this redirect to the present target during the 3 hours it was a redirect there (two hours after the move) it was later redirected to North Britain for about 5 hours then became a disambiguation page for 18 months before being restarted as an article. Thryduulf (talk) 17:43, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
- Retarget to North–South divide (a dab page) and change the link to this redirect to links to Scottish Highlands, Scottish Lowlands and Highland Boundary Fault (one definition of the dividing line). Thryduulf (talk) 17:43, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 01:37, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- Retarget to North-South divide: It would be a perfect target as it would allow people to end up at the right place. Gusfriend (talk) 02:35, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
- I don't understand the suggestion of the target North-South divide which has entries for all over the world. Is this just for including North–South divide in the United Kingdom which barely mentions Scotland? I would rather go with the nom's suggestion of retargeting to Geography of Scotland#Political geography which has some info in the last paragraph. I see potential for a standalone article though. Jay (talk) 06:54, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- Thryduulf and Gusfriend, I was trying to get your rationale for targeting to the dab, which I could not get from your comments. Jay (talk) 06:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- My idea was that the dab page would act to provide people with a collection of different options and find the right one but coming back to it now I think that perhaps North–South divide in the United Kingdom is a better option although the page itself isn't that good at the moment.

- Thryduulf and Gusfriend, I was trying to get your rationale for targeting to the dab, which I could not get from your comments. Jay (talk) 06:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

- Do not retarget to the disambiguation page, as it would be shot on sight as a title unrelated to topics generally on the page. BD2412 T 04:46, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- This needs disambiguation. Either by making it a dab page or by adding the relevant entries to the main dab page. I oppose North-South Divide in the United Kingdom as a target because that article doesn't (and shouldn't) deal with a divide within Scotland because that's a different topic.

- Thryduulf, your suggestion implies that the term "North-South divide in Scotland" has several meanings, but the only one I'm seeing is the north-south divide described at Geography of Scotland#Political Geography. What am I missing here? – Uanfala (talk) 11:24, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- Well that unsourced paragraph (which I'm about to tag as containing potentially original research) makes it clear that there is a political and physical north-south divide. Thryduulf (talk) 11:43, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

- Slow Blind Driveway → John Gorka (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
No mention of this name at the target, nor could searching yield any proof that Gorka ever used this name. Appears to be linked to a long term hoax at WP:LOHOW. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 17:18, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Delete all per WP:RDAB. Each of these redirects' properly spaced variants exist and target the same target, respectively (except Hidan(naruto); for that, Hidan (Naruto) with a capital N exists.) Steel1943 (talk) 00:22, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
