January 4

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on January 4, 2011

Template:PD

• Template:PD → Template:PD-because (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Deprecated unused license template. Kelly ^hi! 03:56, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

• Keep {{PD-because}} is not deprecated, nor is it unused. The rationale is wrong. 184.144.163.241 (talk) 05:01, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Melissa Post

• Melissa Post → Nicole Sheridan (links to redirect • history • stats) 

This is the purported birth name of a living porn actress who performs under a stage name. WP:BLP says that a name that a person purposely obscures for reasons of privacy should not be included unless scrupulously sourced. Even then, the example there is directly on point with this case, and calls for additional editorial discretion. But here, there's no source and it's a BLP. The redirect has been around for years. It should be deleted as soon as practicable. David in DC (talk) 02:56, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

WP:BLPNAME:"When the name of a private individual has not been widely disseminated or has been intentionally concealed, such as in certain court cases or occupations, it is often preferable to omit it, especially when doing so does not result in a significant loss of context."

Feminist supremacy

• Feminist supremacy → Gynocracy (links to redirect • history • stats)
• Feminism and superiority → Gynocracy (links to redirect • history • stats)
• Feminism and supremacy → Gynocracy (links to redirect • history • stats)
• Feminist superiority → Gynocracy (links to redirect • history • stats)

These were created as redirects to an article that was eventually deleted through AfD. In the course of that discussion, the creator had Gynocracy, formerly a redirect to Matriarchy, speedied so that he could move his article there, but when the article was deleted, I re-created Gynocracy as the redirect it started as. Now these four pages are both double redirects and (in spite of the blue link) redirects to a non-existent article. I left Women's supremacy et al. because they're still plausible search terms for people looking for Matriarchy, but a) no one's going to be using these b) they are an inaccurate description of the content of the article they currently redirect to.

Myth of 1939—40

• Myth of 1939—40 → Occupation of the Baltic states (links to redirect • history • stats) 

Delete the redirect which was created for no other purpose but to disparage one of POVs in a controversial article. Contrary to its creator's rationale, it is not an established term used in mainstream. Igny (talk) 04:36, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
