April 10

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 10, 2021.

Þ̧

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

This is not one Unicode character, it uses the combining cedilla. There is no mention of it in the article ~~now and there wasn't when the redirect was created~~.[1][2] It was mentioned on the talk page (Talk:Cedilla#All these letters but no explanation was provided. It's an unlikely combination as there appears to be no language that uses both Þ and the cedilla. (It was included in a template but was removed in 2013[3].)

DKC TV cartoon.

DKC TV cartoon. → Donkey Kong#Donkey Kong Country (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete The full stop makes this a very unlikely search term UnitedStatesian (talk) 21:17, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This isn't Neon Genesis Evangelion. Dominicmgm (talk) 02:08, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The extraneous dot makes the redirect unlikely to be useful. DKC TV cartoon, however, would be reasonable. ~ Aseleste (t, e | c, l) 11:16, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The period is not something someone should type looking this up. Also, if someone decides to create DKC TV cartoon the target should be Donkey Kong Country (TV series).--67.70.101.238 (talk) 02:47, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Technological Liberation

Technological Liberation → Technological unemployment (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

No mention of "liberation" at the target, delete unless a justification can be provided. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 17:06, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete since not mentioned in the article. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:16, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DList of Dragon Ball Z episodes (season 9)

DList of Dragon Ball Z episodes (season 9) → Dragon Ball Z (season 9) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete very unlikely typo. Properly spelled List of Dragon Ball Z episodes (season 9) exists. UnitedStatesian (talk) 16:20, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DONAL HENAHAN

DONAL HENAHAN → Donal Henahan (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

DONALD THOMPSON MP → Donald Thompson (politician) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

DOKKA SEETHAMMA → Dokka Seethamma (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

DMITRENKO, Grigory → Hryhoriy Dmytrenko (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

DIVISIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOL AND INTER COLLEGE SAHIWAL PAKISTAN → Divisional Public School and College, Sahiwal (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

DIYAB, JIHAD AHMED MUJSTAFA → Jihad Ahmed Mustafa Dhiab (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete per WP:RCAPS UnitedStatesian (talk) 16:15, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose for DONAL HENAHAN only. Donal Henahan's name is usually capitalized in print in The New York Times over his many decades as a writer; and many readers may copy paste his name into a search on wikipedia.4meter4 (talk) 20:16, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Wikipedia's search does not require a capitalization match, and we don't have similar redirects for other Times writers (e.g. R. W. APPLE JR.), as doing so would certainly be WP:COSTLY. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:25, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's an essay, and one that I don't think applies here. Maybe try applying WP:COMMON. Also, WP:OTHERSTUFF arguments aren't helpful.4meter4 (talk) 21:33, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I agree with 4meter4 that if a name is used in all caps, that it would be plausible to copy-paste it to Wikipedia in all caps. I think WP:RCAPS actually supports this interpretation, namely When there is a connection between the subject and an alternative capitalization, it is usually kept. -- Tavix ^(talk) 00:55, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edens Zero → EDENS ZERO (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The target page's title violates MOS:ALLCAPS guidelines and was created without discussion. This stylized capitalization is only used once within the article proper, while its regular spelling is used throughout the article and all links to the page.

Wikipedia:UC

Wikipedia:UC → Wikipedia:WikiProject University of California (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

It should be made a disambiguation, seeing that there are three other pages (Wikipedia:Changing username, Wikipedia:User contributions, and Wikipedia:User categories) that also fits the acronym. DePlume (talk) 06:12, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, longstanding redirect, hatnotes are sufficient. —Kusma (𐍄·𐌺) 14:23, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I am not debating the worthiness of keeping the redirect. I am debating its target. DePlume (talk) 15:59, 10 April 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by NotReallySoroka (talk • contribs) [reply]
  - Yes, I understand that. My thinking is that the shortcut does send people who know what it has been used for in the last 14 years to the right place. People who don't know and think it means "changing username" or "user categories" need an extra click to get to the place they want. If we change to a disambiguation page, nobody gets where they want to go directly (everyone has to do the extra click). Kind of defeats the purpose of a shortcut. —Kusma (𐍄·𐌺) 18:29, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Taper ratio

Taper ratio → Chord (aeronautics) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The quantity is mentioned only in passing in the target, and is also mentioned in a totally different context in Space elevator. The original article was an unsourced, 2-sentence stub that fails WP:DICDEF and lacked context. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 16:23, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Refine the target to Chord (aeronautics)#Tapered wing and put a section hatnote there to Space elevator#Cable materials. I did first spend a happy few minutes determining that Space elevator isn't an April Fool's joke. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 15:59, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Anthony Opoka

Anthony Opoka → Michael Patrick Mulroy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Created by blocked UPE sockpuppet to promote Mulroy. This is the name of a person that has a passing mention in the target article, but does not seem to grant a redirect. MarioGom (talk) 13:23, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nasibi

Nasibi → Shia–Sunni relations (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This term does not appear anywhere in the article, much less with a reliable source, so there is no context to its relationship to Shias and Sunnis. ... discospinster _talk 16:25, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This was an article until it was redirected last year as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nasibi. - Eureka Lott 16:52, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gents (Swedish band)

Gents (Swedish band) → Pebbles, Volume 28 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The Gents (Swedish band) → Pebbles, Volume 28 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The redirect target, a compilation album that one of this band's songs appears on, has now itself been redirected as non-notable. The band is not mentioned anywhere else on Wikipedia as far as I can tell, so these redirects should be deleted. Lennart97 (talk) 00:32, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
