April 5

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 5, 2021.

General Luna Avenue

General Luna Avenue → San Mateo, Rizal (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The redirect, with a complicated history, should be deleted. The article doesn't have a paragraph that's specific to the avenue itself. Originally it was a standalone article that was slapped with notability tag from 2009, then PROD-ed by Doghouse09 on August 25, 2020 (date in accordance with Philippine time zone), then de-PROD-ed by Djsasso on August 28, 2020 claiming it is a national road. However, it is not listed at the Philippine highway network (perhaps a national tertiary road, but even listed there it will still fail notability guidelines). It was finally redirected to San Mateo, Rizal on March 31, 2021 by Mccapra, citing notability issue. However, as I said earlier the target seems inappropriate, and it is better to have this deleted as there is no such article as "List of roads in Rizal", "List of roads in CALABARZON" or any similar list articles to retain it (unlike those that redirect today at List of roads in Metro Manila).

Note: this discussion also involves two other redirects that formerly redirected here (pinged the redirect creators per their edit histories, to add notice of RFD on those redirects shortly afterward):

General Antonio Luna Avenue (@HueMan1:)
Gen. Luna Avenue (@Bluemask:)

Random sample

Random sample → Sampling (statistics) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Random samples → simple random sample (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Random sampling → simple random sample (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I think these two redirects should probably point to the same target, since one is just the plural of the other, but I'm unsure which target is better. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:17, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Set indexify with Simple random sample, Systematic random sample, Stratified random sample, Cluster random sample, and probably others. As a quicker solution, could instead target both to Sample (statistics) (yes, apparently that is a separate article from Sampling (statistics)), but I don't think that article really articulates the differences and searchers probably are seeking something more specific anyway. Unfortunately the relevant articles do not follow a consistent title format, with some including "sample" and others including "sampling" but that's an issue for requested moves.

Comment I added Random sampling that should be treated similarly to the others. Mdewman6 (talk) 02:57, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Re/target all to Sampling (statistics) which is a generic article with several sections relating to different possibilities. A separate SIA is not required: in fact a third article to Sample (statistics) and Sampling (statistics) might just make the confusion worse. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 11:59, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Agree Re/target all to Sampling (statistics), which is the article that covers the concepts well. Newystats (talk) 10:29, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Was about to close this as a retarget, but then I noticed that two different targets are being discussed here: Sample (statistics) and Sampling (statistics). Which one is more appropriate?

Dark Lakitu

Dark Lakitu → Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This is a non-notable enemy who isn't mentioned at the target article. It was mentioned at Lakitu until July 2007, but hasn't been mentioned since that time, so I'm not sure about retargeting that redirect there. I'm leaning towards deletion unless a mention can be added somewhere. Regards, SONIC⁶⁷⁸ 05:16, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the fact that no one has no has brought up Dark Lakitu not being in the main Lakitu article for over a decade strongly indicates that no one is looking this up. The current target doesn’t work either since it’s a minor enemy not mentioned.--67.70.100.30 (talk) 05:21, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak retarget to Lakitu, where searchers will find some information related to the generic enemy. I wouldn't oppose outright deletion though. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 13:19, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rawk Hawk

Rawk Hawk → Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Rawk Hawk may have been the previous champion of the Glitz Pit, and had an article about him for almost one-and-a-half years before ShakespeareFan00 redirected it to List of characters in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door in July 2006. But alas, that was turned into a redirect itself, so I don't know if we should keep this thing lying around. I suggest we delete it unless someone can provide a justification. Regards, SONIC⁶⁷⁸ 02:47, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete while more relevant to the plot than the random enemies they have been nominated for deletion recently he is not mentioned in the target article.--67.70.101.238 (talk) 05:43, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

RedirectName

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

The action you would like to occur (deletion, re-targeting, etc.) and the rationale for that action. 50.201.195.170 (talk) 01:30, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BMZ GmbH

BMZ GmbH → Smart battery (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

A redirect from a random battery manufacturer to the article on smart batteries, where they are not mentioned in the article prose. Given the next edit of the redirect creator was to add an inappropriate external link to the companies website it seems it might have been made as part of a minor spam campaign. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:43, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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

WP:FORRED. No connection between elastomers and the Italian language. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:53, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Histereza

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

This is not a misspelling as the category tags suggest but is instead the Polish word for Hysteresis. Since there is no connection between Polish and Hysteresis I think this should be deleted, per WP:FORRED. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 12:03, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
