What is Active Directory Global Catalog?

This request has been declined. Please do not modify it.

The Active Directory Global Catalog is the central storage of information about objects in an Active Directory forest. A Global Catalog is created automatically on the first domain controller in the first domain in the forest. The Domain Controller which is hosting the Global Catalog is known as a Global Catalog Server. A Global Catalog server stores a full copy of all objects in the directory for its host domain and a partial copy of all objects for all other domains in the forest. Global Catalog helps in searching Active Directory objects in the foreset more efficiently.

The Active Directory Global Catalog is responsible for several other important functions of the Active Directory, such as the following:

• Logon validation of universal group membership

• User Principal Name (UPN) logon validation through DC location

• Search capabilities for every object within an entire forest

The function of a Global Catalog can be compared with a telephone directory. Global Catalog stores information like a telephone directory that users can perform queries against to find specific information.

Declined. This request is not for a redirect to be created. It appears instead that you are looking to create an article about the subject. See the instructions at WP:AFC on how to submit an article. benzband (talk) 17:29, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect request: Flohr-OTIS, Flohr-Otis

This request has been declined. Please do not modify it.

Target of redirect: Otis Elevator Company

Reason: Old name of German subsidiary.

Source (if applicable): [1]

84.61.181.19 (talk) 20:35, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Declined. The title you suggested seems an unlikely search term. Could you provide a source showing that it is a commonly used alternate name? Was declined last year; nothing new was presented this time around. Huon (talk) 01:06, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: [2] --84.61.181.19 (talk) 08:10, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Target article contains no relevant information. Huon (talk) 11:05, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: [3] --84.61.181.19 (talk) 12:04, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not a reliable source, and it doesn't change the fact that the target article does not even mention the German subsidiary Flohr-Otis. Huon (talk) 15:54, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Otisstraße mentions the merger of Flohr with OTIS in 1951. --84.61.181.19 (talk) 17:05, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Entirely unsourced, non-notable, proposed for deletion. Also does not address the fact that the target article does not mention Flohr-Otis. How about writing some actual sourced content? Huon (talk) 17:57, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Waygood-OTIS and Waygood-Otis have been recently accepted as redirects. --84.61.181.19 (talk) 18:07, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion they shouldn't have been, but that's WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS anyway. Huon (talk) 18:27, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reason:

PS: Btw, I'm not sure if this one advertisement-like article for this one company that is currently as DFI is so important as to occupy that spot instead of DFI (disambiguation).

Redirect request: Cryopreservant

This request has been accepted. Please do not modify it.


Target of redirect: Cryopreservation

Reason: It's easy to get from a discussion of cryopreservation in some specific context to the article for the technique, but looking for information about the materials used requires a search outside of Wikipedia. There's great potential later on for more detail on cryopreservants themselves, but in the meantime closing the loop seems reasonable.

Reason: Because search asks did you mean: steve callaghan

Declined. The title you suggested seems an unlikely search term. Could you provide a source showing that it is a commonly used alternate name? I found no evidence that Callahan is referred to as "Steve". Since Steven Callahan and Steve Callaghan are about equally likely misspellings, I don't think we should redirect to either.
