Redirect request: U.R.T.I.

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

Target of redirect: Upper respiratory tract infection

Reason: cf. URTI

Source (if applicable):

31.18.253.188 (talk) 16:55, 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? The first few pages of results at Google Web, Google Books and Google Scholar showed not a single use of this punctuation. Huon (talk) 18:49, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This triggered me to look it up: http://themedicalpost.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/7-eustachian-tube.ppsx 31.18.253.188 (talk) 19:13, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I cannot open that file, but the Medical Post documents don't seem to be peer-reviewed, and I doubt a single instance of extremely uncommon punctuation requires a redirect. Apparently the other editors agree. Huon (talk) 00:14, 11 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]

Redirect request: steve callahan

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

Reason: Because search asks did you mean: steve callaghan

Source (if applicable):

76.254.3.173 (talk) 17:24, 9 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? 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.
