This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on June 13, 2020.

Five-Day Revolution

Five-Day Revolution → 2014 Ukrainian revolution (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

While this event did indeed last five days, I can't find any evidence that it's commonly referred to this way. Searching online, the Five Days of Milan seems to be the most prominent event referred to by this name, whereas Google Scholar's top result is about the Tulip Revolution ([1]), although it's not clear to me which phase of the Tulip Revolution this paper considers to be the "five days". I searched the Ukrainian- and Russian-language versions of the 2014 Ukrainian Revolution article and didn't see any sign that they referred to it as the 5 day revolution (and in fact, the Ukrainian article lists it as only being 3-days long).

Given the above, I think that deletion may be the most appropriate, although retargeting to Five Days of Milan also seems like a workable solution. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 19:44, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kersti

Kersti → Paper Mario: Sticker Star (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

There is more than one Kersti and can block people from accessing other articles. I think this would be more suitable for a disambiguation page. Captain Galaxy (talk) 16:55, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can you give some examples of what other articles people may be searching for?--69.157.254.64 (talk) 20:00, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kill the Buzz

Kill the Buzz → Revealed Recordings#Artists (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This topic has been CS:d sent to draft and rejected multiple times. Moreover this redirect was turned into an article and is now back to a redirect because of this Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kill the Buzz AFD. As such it looks like just an attempt to retain the page (after it had been deleted multiple times). Slatersteven (talk) 15:56, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The redirect is mentioned at the target page and has been cited. Not to mention WP:CHEAP. Captain Galaxy (talk) 16:19, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mojang Snatch

Mojang Snatch → Mojang Studios#Games (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Unlikely misspelling of "Catacomb Snatch". IceWelder [✉] 11:18, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Redirect only had 4 pageviews in the last 90 days. --im temtem • hOI!! • fsfdfg • alt account of pandakekok9 04:17, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Uber Catacomb Snatch

Uber Catacomb Snatch → Mojang Studios#Games (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not mentioned in the target article. Seems like a non-notable third-party derivative of Mojang's "Catacomb Snatch" (which is open-source). IceWelder [✉] 11:19, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. This redirect is misleading as Mojang Studios didn't develop this fork. --im temtem • hOI!! • fsfdfg • alt account of pandakekok9 04:26, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Graded-commutative

Graded-commutative → Graded-commutative ring (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Retarget to Supercommutative algebra, as not only referring to rings? 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 12:42, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, not a big deal. Charles Matthews (talk) 12:52, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Woodcutting

Woodcutting → Logging (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Is this more likely to refer to logging or woodcut? Paul_012 (talk) 01:45, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would say redirect to "Woodcut" as logging is used for timber harvesting for lumber and typically not for cutting timber for fuel use. But then "woodcutting" could simply mean "harvesting timber for fuel". Vsmith (talk) 02:58, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dab? A few other options could be wood carving, whittling, and woodcutter (a dab). -- Tavix ^(talk) 03:43, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to DAB page woodcutter. It's ambiguous. Another possible meaning is coppicing. Narky Blert (talk) 18:32, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to woodcutter per Narky Blert --Lenticel ^(talk) 00:17, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dab per Tavix. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLAD^balaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 16:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Dab per definition. userdude 01:12, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget to Woodcutter, having two dab pages that are so closely related would only be a hindrance. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 04:57, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Separate dab. The two dab pages will have substantial overlap, but that's not complete (there's no sense in which "woodcutting" refers to a lumberjack), and it will be difficult to come up with a wording that will cover both terms. Given the stable and small set of entries, I don't see a particular maintenance problem in having separate pages. – Uanfala (talk) 17:24, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I really don't want two separate disambiguation pages, but Uanfala makes a good point about "woodcutting" and lumberjack above. --BDD (talk) 20:15, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that we will never have consensus at this state. I think there's a middle option that may satisfy both sides. How about we make woodcutting a dab page, merge the contents of woodcutter to the dab and turn it to a redirect to woodcutting? I created a draft on the woodcutting page so that you guys can visualize. im temtem • hOI!! • fsfdfg • alt account of pandakekok9 07:39, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds fine to me. The choice of Woodcutting or Woodcutter as title is arbitrary; the latter is a few years older, but neither has extensive history. Since this seems unlikely to get big enough to require a re-split, I think a single page separated by usage like this is the best way forward. --BDD (talk) 17:59, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

VG-Action-stub → Template:Videogame-action-stub (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

VG Action-stub → Template:Videogame-action-stub (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Unneeded cross-namespace redirect to Template:Videogame-action-stub DannyS712 (talk) 02:35, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Combined by Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:27, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. These cross-namespace redirects are unnecessary and not helpful. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:27, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Minister for Community, Rural & Gaeltacht Affairs

Minister for Community, Rural & Gaeltacht Affairs → Department of Rural and Community Development (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Minister for Community, Equality & Gaeltacht Affairs → Department of Rural and Community Development (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

An Roinn Gnóthaí Pobail, Tuaithe agus Gaeltachta → Department of Rural and Community Development (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Proposed deletion of each of these articles. Nothing currently links to them, and they incorrectly redirect to Department of Rural and Community Development. Iveagh Gardens (talk) 08:00, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget all that are correct titles to Department of Rural and Community Development. If they are correct titles then they are useful search terms. Thryduulf (talk) 16:43, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's actually a little complicated. The correct institutional successor of the department with these names is the Department of Children and Youth Affairs. The transfers of responsibilities and renaming along the way show these transitions. I am planning a separate article which will hopefully be helpful on all former names of Irish government departments, with both the institutional successors and the current departments with these responsibilities. However, in the mean time, as these pages do not have any links to them, rather than redirecting to DCYA, I would argue it safe to delete them, and certainly those with non-standard formats. —Iveagh Gardens (talk) 17:05, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Carl O. Manneh

Carl O. Manneh → Mojang Studios (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Carl Manneh is only identified by one given name. A middle name is unsourced and not mentioned in the target article, making the redirect misleading. A redirect without the middle name already exists. IceWelder [✉] 11:17, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mojangsta

Mojangsta → Mojang Studios (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Seemingly an inside joke from 2012. Not mentioned anywhere in the target article. IceWelder [✉] 11:11, 6 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral - I originally wanted to !vote "Delete as WP:MADEUP," but surprisingly they have used it on their official Twitter account: [2], [3]. I doubt that's enough of a WP:RS to include in the article, but it does appear to be official-ish. Or at least, it was in 2016. --N Y Kevin 03:06, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. I did find the first (2012) tweet, leading to my assessment in the nom, while the 2016 was unknown to me. However, I still feel like passing mentions in two tweets are insufficient to warrant a redirect, especially since the term is left undiscussed (the tweets do not discuss the terms either!) in the target article.

Write in C

Write in C → Let It Be#Songs (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete redirect. From the page history, this redirect was originally an article about a "parody" of the Beatles song "Let it Be". It was later redirected to the Beatles song, but seems to have lost its target after several moves. Regardless, "Write in C" is not mentioned at the dab page, nor at the Beatles song page, and is not a plausible search term. Natg 19 (talk) 08:14, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete While I would normally say to revert to the article and discuss it at AfD, the only article version in this case was almost entirely a (probable) copyright violation and, according to the discussion at Wikipedia:Help desk/Archives/2010 October 8#Dangling redirect the content was (a) attributed incorrectly and (b) extensively discussed after merging so there is no need for a new discussion. Pinging those who commented in that help desk thread @Card Zero, Fuhghettaboutit, PrimeHunter, and DMacks:. Thryduulf (talk) 11:46, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This specific parody does not seem notable, and the the most proper target, Let It Be (Beatles song) (original of which it is a parody) does not mention it. Unless we have a non-primary source about this specific parody, I don't see where it would be includable. However, because there was previously an article that had some non-nonsense non-copyvio versions, I don't think a simple deletion of the whole thing that later became a redirect, solely based on RfD is proper. So delete but treat as PROD ("non-notable" flag that nobody objects to) that allow editor-request revival to improve the original content somewhere). That's a shade weaker than explicitly voiced consensus to nuke the content (apparently there was editorial local-consensus to remove). RfD isn't the place to discuss article-content deletions. DMacks (talk) 15:00, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Catholic Studies

Catholic Studies → Center for Catholic Studies (University of St. Thomas) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I don't think it's reasonable for this redirect to target the article about a Catholic studies institution. I suggest retarget to Catholic theology consistent with Catholic studies. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:40, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget per nom. The current target is massively too narrow and rather a WP:SURPRISE. Thryduulf (talk) 11:50, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Dwarf (star)

Dwarf (star) → Main sequence (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Retarget to the extant article Dwarf star, given that the redirect has almost the exact same name as this article, and it is more relevant than simply directing to the Main sequence article. BlackholeWA (talk) 05:45, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget per nom: the parenthetical disambiguation should have the same target as the natural disambiguation. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:42, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget per nom. Captain Galaxy (talk) 13:48, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Battered-woman's syndrome.

Battered-woman's syndrome. → Battered woman syndrome (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The inclusion of a period/full stop in the redirect is unnecessary and an unlikely search term. Recommend deletion. Senator2029 “Talk” 05:20, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Obviously a mistake in the naming included a full stop. I've renamed it to Battered-woman's syndrome as somebody thought it a plausible redirect. That's a reason for an uncontroversial move, not a deletion discussion. --RexxS (talk) 12:34, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Flashlite

Flashlite → Adobe Flash Lite (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Adobe Flash Lite is a discontinued software application that has not been relevant in several years now. A Flashlight is a device which many people use (even in this day) and has semi-historical symbolic importance. FlashLite I get being targeted to this page (WP:DiffCaps), but not why flashlite has stood this way for 10+ years now. –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 00:25, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Flashlight and mark with {{R from misspelling}}. Senator2029 “Talk” 05:30, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget per nom. I think it's more likely that a reader will have spelled "Flashlight" incorrectly than formatted "Flash lite" incorrectly. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:40, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget per nom. Flashlight has a hatnote to a disambiguation page where the current target is listed so it can still be found by those who are searching for it. Thryduulf (talk) 11:52, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
