May 27

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on May 27, 2022.

Polymer impregnation

Polymer impregnation → Plastination (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Polymer impregnating → Porosity sealing (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

These targets seem too specific for these terms, and these redirects should likely target the same place. I am not sure about what the best broader target may be. Impregnation appropriately redirects to Fertilisation where a hatnote directs users to Waterproofing as apparently the only other use of this broad term. A better target is needed, or perhaps some sort of disambiguation. Mdewman6 (talk) 21:50, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Personally I prefer a disambig over a redirect any day. I am not really certain of what your argument or solution is but... Krj373^{*(talk), *(contrib)} 02:19, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Chemopreservation

Chemopreservation → Plastination (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Chemo-preservation → Plastination (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

While plastination is a form of chemical preservation, this term is not mentioned at target or elsewhere on enwiki. The term seems to be associated instead with Cryonics as an alternative method. Suggest deletion until appropriate content can be added using this term. Mdewman6 (talk) 21:41, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Botsdeny

Template:Botsdeny → Template:Bots (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Template:Bots deny → Template:Bots (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The bots (and associated nobots) template are designed to control bot exclusion on pages. Bots and Nobots are the only actively used and therefore are also the only type recognised by most (if not all) bots. If a user was to use Botsdeny, it would lead to no exclusion taking place. It also currently has no transclusions. To prevent users from accidentally using a wrong and functionless template, these should be removed. Aidan9382 _(talk) 21:09, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kay ef cee → KFC (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This should also be deleted, similar to "Kay Eff Cee". Pronunciation of "KFC" is obvious, and we don't need a transliterated version as a redirect. 747pilot (talk) 21:05, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kay eff cee → KFC (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I don't think this redirect is necessary. We don't need to redirect the phonetic transliteration of "KFC" as the pronunciation is quite obvious. Also, usually redirects could be used for common misspellings/typos instead. 747pilot (talk) 19:55, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Double Triple Bossy Deluxe

Double Triple Bossy Deluxe → List of SpongeBob SquarePants characters#Bubble Bass (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Run this bad Krabby Patty out of town per above. It may be a meme from the episode "Pickles," but even that isn't up to this project's standards-it doesn't come on a raft, 4x4 animal style, no extra shingles with a shimmy and a squeeze, nary a sign of light axle grease, no way to make it cry, and absolutely no manner of burning it, so we can't let it swim. And also, you forgot the pickles yet again, SpongeBob LoserPants! Regards, BUBBLE BASS (Sonic678) Snark Chat 04:35, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Horntails → Quidditch (real-life sport)#Hurricane Horntails (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Term not mentioned at target article. Redirect was a short lived stub for a mere two hours in 2011 before it was merged, and then it targeted a section within the Quidditch article but was removed. CycloneYoris ^talk! 23:11, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

History of institutions

History of institutions → Institution (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

It does not seem as though the target article contains any specific information about its history. Readers searching this term will not find what they are looking to find. Steel1943 (talk) 17:30, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - the section on Social science perspectives does obliquely discuss the historical formation of institutions at a very theoretical and abstract level. I'm uncertain as to whether that's enough to satisfy a reader or whether deletion to encourage article creation would be preferable. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 20:27, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Warren Ferguson

Warren Ferguson → List of The Andy Griffith Show characters#Recurring (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This title, currently pointing to List of The Andy Griffith Show characters, is a minor character appearing in one season of the show. Although the page gets more views than Warren J. Ferguson, I would propose that a real judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is historically more significant than a fictional little-seen Mayberry deputy. I would at least have a disambiguation page at this title. BD2412 T 05:09, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment While he was only in one season of the show, he is a recognizable character (and reprised the role in other shows) so there is some degree of notability. It actually wasn't originally a redirect. There was a page for the character, but it was changed to a redirect primarily because the article was not properly or effectively sourced. But properly rewritten, it could sustain an article. I can agree that with more than one Warren Ferguson, one could make the case for disambig, but I'll wait to what other comments and/or support/opposition is discussed before committing one way or the other.

Retarget - I agree that this should lead to the real person. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 20:51, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguate. I wouldn't say the character was "minor" as he was the replacement for the co-star. I wouldn't be surprised if the character was more recognizable than the judge and might be the PT, but a dab will suffice. MB 05:00, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguate per nom and MB. Seems plausible to have a DAB, so readers can find both options there. CycloneYoris ^talk! 07:36, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nazist state → Nazi Germany (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Term doesn't sound particularly fluent to me. 951 hits on google compared to 299k for Nazi state, which doesn't have a redirect. Suggest delete. –Novem Linguae (talk) 00:17, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget - I would take this to 'Nazism'. I wouldn't delete it. "Nazist" is a valid English language term. It's even in the Merriam-Webster dictionary. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 14:30, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
