December 27

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on December 27, 2015.

Laurence Scott

someone please create a redirect from Laurence Scott to Laurence Henry Scott Joeykai (talk) 21:33, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You should be a able to create it yourself. RFD is used when someone is suggesting deleting or a redirect or discussing a potentially controversial change of what something should redirect to.--67.68.23.129 (talk) 22:34, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Monafiqeen-e-Khalq Surrender (2003)

I'm not here to defend the group, but I can't find any RS that use this name, much less in the context in which it is used. Discuss-Dubious (t/c) 18:34, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chris maurice brown

Propose retargeting to Chris Brown since it is the primary topic. sst✈discuss 15:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Christopher M. Brown

Propose retargeting to Chris Brown since it is the primary topic. sst✈discuss 15:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Brown, Chris

Propose retargeting to Chris Brown since it is the primary topic. sst✈discuss 15:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Christopher Brown

Propose retargeting to Chris Brown since it is the primary topic. sst✈discuss 15:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chris Brown (singer)

Propose retargeting to Chris Brown as {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}} sst✈discuss 15:55, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Upcoming ASAP Rocky studio album

The redirect implies that ASAP Rocky has an upcoming studio album. However, now that At. Long. Last. ASAP has been released, that is no longer true. Delete as misleading. -- Tavix (talk) 08:02, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Health Sciences basic topics

Delete per WP:CNR, redirects from the wrong namespace. Since healthcare science isn't a project-space topic, these redirects are misleading. -- Tavix (talk) 07:56, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Medicine that is harmful and ineffective

I've got a feeling that someone searching for this is looking for something in more detail than just an overview of medicine. Do we even cover this topic? -- Tavix (talk) 07:37, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Qwertyuiop

I can't imagine what this string of letters has to do with the sandbox, unless it was used to test something. Absent a good retargeting suggestion, I think it should be deleted as nonsense--possibly per WP:G2. -- Tavix (talk) 07:30, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

沙盒

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Requesting delete and salt per WP:R#D6. It was created due to the fact that Chinese editors were using it as a sandbox, but the proper solution to that problem would be to WP:SALT it instead of creating an ill-suited cross-namespace redirect. Since it's also a foreign-language redirect and sandboxes have no affinity for the Chinese language, WP:RFOREIGN also applies here. -- Tavix (talk) 06:58, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and salt per nom. Target is not the encyclopedic topic for this term. This term is not a particularly Chinese topic. Chinese Wikipedians who are writing sandbox material for Chinese Wikipedia should do it on Chinese Wikipedia. If they are doing it for English, then the WikiData interwiki links should lead them from one language to another, with the proper WikipediaProjectSpace pagenames, so looking at the Chinese Wikipedia sandbox's English interlink should lead them to the proper English language sandbox page. -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 10:53, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keepif it is still in use, else Delete. I created the redirect because Chinese-language users were consistently mistaking it for en.wp's sandbox since 2005. When this redirect was brought up for discussion in 2011, it was noted that the CNR was still getting hits three years after its creation (2008). If the redirect is no longer receiving traffic, then it should be deleted. Otherwise, it should stay. (Note that Wikipedia is VERY spotty at the best of times in China due to censorship, and local users may not particularly trust zh.wp.) —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 11:31, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Wikipedia:沙盒 has been created once and deleted, and it looks like there's never been an attempt to create 维基百科:沙盒, which is the Chinese version of its name. Peter James (talk) 11:59, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Looking at the stats, this redirect's usage seems only a little lower than in 2011, around 70/mo, so little has changed since then. I agree that a lot of foreign language redirects, many of which targeted for example the Main page, do not belong on the English Wikipedia and have been deleted, but this one is "grandfathered in" (at least until, as Jeremy says, it's no longer used). Happy holidays! Paine  17:37, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Sandbox. This would solve half the issue: though still an inappropriate redirect from a foreign language (as sandbox is not a a topic related to that language), it would no longer be a cross-namespace redirect. Sandbox (a disambiguation page) has a large banner serving as a hatnote directing to the Wikipedia:Sandbox if that is the intended target. "沙盒" = "Sandbox", not "Wikipedia:Sandbox" ("维基百科:沙盒"), so "sandbox" is the proper unambiguous target, if this redirect is to exist.—Godsy(TALKCONT) 18:11, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Soybeanwind

This is an old joke from Last Week Tonight, where John Oliver pointed out that Dabo Swinney is an anagram of "soybean wind" so he could say that Swinney "seems about as pleasant as an edamame fart." As that can be taken offensively, I think these redirects should be deleted per WP:R#D3. -- Tavix (talk) 05:15, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Administrative alerts

Delete - these were created as cross-namespace redirects to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism but were retargeted to an article that doesn't mention these. They may have been intended with the project namespace prefix but I can see nothing similar there and this isn't a common name for AIV or something that clearly refers to it. The closest I can find in project namespace are the WP:ALERTS shortcut to Wikipedia:Article alerts, and Wikipedia:Vandalism (Current alerts) which redirects to the historical page Wikipedia:Requests for investigation). Peter James (talk) 01:32, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Medical Foundation

Delete - Many medical foundations exist. No need for disambiguation, as they are referred to by specific names, not just "the medical foundation". —Godsy(TALKCONT) 00:56, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
