Could this be a test page? The /Image-Display redirect held the text "hmm" before being redirected, and the other redirect has always been one. I don't see what use these pages serve. -- Tavix (talk) 18:08, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete both - Not useful. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 00:01, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep the talk pages which are valid subpages of the main article talk page. The article namespace pages were likely created to stop them being redlinks, but this is not required or particularly useful. Thryduulf (talk) 12:07, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, Thryduulf, that's what I missed. That's clearly the purpose of these redirects, and I agree with your analysis. -- Tavix (talk) 14:20, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

- Randy Stockmaster → Green Springs Elementary School (Ohio) (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete. Non-notable principal of a non-notable elementary school that has been redirected to the school district per the norm for non-notable elementary schools. This was apparently part of a test case on lower level school articles. See Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 125#Rechallenging the right for any type of school to have its own article! and the school article redirect discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Green Springs Elementary School (Ohio). Meters (talk) 17:25, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Danish cartoons (without pictures)
[edit]- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was delete. Fully agree with the comments made by Thryduulf and BDD. Given those concerns, I feel like an earlier deletion would have been justified under WP:IAR and WP:SNOW, given the delete !votes.---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 01:51, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- Danish cartoons (without pictures) → Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete, incorrect redirect without any edit history. I'm assuming there was a proposal for a separate article without the depictions of Muhammad? Whatever the case, there is consensus that some depictions are okay for the article, making this redirect inaccurate. -- Tavix (talk) 16:51, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete too vague and not a term used for the event like "Danish cartoon crisis". there's also a "Danish cartoons" redirect to the same page so this is an unnecessary disambiguation. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:00, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - Vague and otherwise just not helpful. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 17:34, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as misleading. If someone was searching for this they would not be happy to end up at the target which features pictures of Danish cartoons. Thryduulf (talk) 12:11, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. Thou shalt not make graven images, I believe is in the book of Moses or something, oh hang on that is the Christain old testament, and in the Talmud, and in the Koran... rather much depends on what you mean by graven image. It seems not to mean photo-engraving, or photogravura, for example, the nearest we get is lithograph, I think, gravura is too far away. Si Trew (talk) 10:58, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete I don't see any other option here, and I'm essentially forgoing my right to close the discussion, but I feel compelled to comment here. This is about as harmful as a redirect can get. I'm sure its creation was in good faith, but now, it's extremely malicious. I completely respect WP:NOTCENSORED and the display of the cartoons at the target article. But dangling a search term like this in front of readers who may be looking for information on the topic without viewing the cartoons themselves is cruel and misleading. --BDD (talk) 17:04, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

This can't be the only or most notable boycott involving Muslims and/or Islam. Do we have a better target for these redirects? -- Tavix (talk) 16:43, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as vague. Let the search find possible articles as with Jewish boycott. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:54, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete both - These are extremely vague. Numerous Muslim groups and individuals have called for boycotting a wide variety of things. It's like saying 'Human Boycott', 'Female Boycott', or 'Christian Boycott'. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 00:03, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete both. Way too vague even for a list article. Thryduulf (talk) 12:12, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete Any target this could possibly refer to is bound to be a POV. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 09:49, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to International A-class catamaran. --BDD (talk) 20:04, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
We don't have similar redirects for other pets. SSTflyer 10:02, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to International A-class catamaran where the term is mentioned. - Champion (talk) (contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 10:10, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - This existing isn't helpful when we have both 'Acat' and 'ACAT'. People should be just use the search engine without the awkward 'A Cat' being auto-completed for them. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:27, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- Noting that 'A cat' is red. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:40, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, BDD (talk) 16:07, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- delete per CWM. The sailboat nickname seems generally to be hyphenated and after that there's no decent target. Mangoe (talk) 16:17, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Usually but not always. Peter James (talk) 19:45, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete lots of PTMs for "A Cat". Best to let the search continue. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:24, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Search results aren't useful here, as the first (and possibly only) topic this could refer to, International A-class catamaran, is on the third page after many irrelevant results. Peter James (talk) 19:45, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget per Champion and hatnote to other uses. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 01:52, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to International A-class catamaran and create A-Cat to redirect there as well. Someone wanting the animal won't search "a cat". After filtering out the animal, results seem to be dominated by International A-class catamaran. Nice find, Champion! -- Tavix (talk) 18:42, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

Delete as recent obvious typo. Correctly spelled redirect was created one minute later. Speedy tag removed. I wouldn't bother except misspelling shows up on dropdown in Search box. Station1 (talk) 16:03, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:24, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Delete or retarget to Raw Deal (1986 film). SSTflyer 12:56, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep and refine target to Arnold Schwarzenegger#Marital separation where it talks about the Baenas (mistress and son). AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:06, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
Keep SSTflyer, sorry, I don't understand the objection, Baena is mentioned in article and would be too young for any connection with that film. Boleyn (talk) 16:24, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Is this a valid search term? SSTflyer 12:54, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete It's the only one of those search phrases for "bodybuilding competitions featuring (person)" AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:08, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - This seems worthless to me. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 18:16, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Someone looking for this actually could find it at Arnold Schwarzenegger#Bodybuilding career. Or possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger#List of competitions, where Bodybuilding competitions featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger points. At a glance, both lists seem to include competitions not included on the other. --BDD (talk) 17:07, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

Thatcher is a disambiguation page. SSTflyer 12:53, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete sounds like the name of a play but that doesn't exist. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:59, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

- Comment If this redirect is deleted? We should thusly delete OBAMA! (and OBAMA) also.--Nevé–selbert 18:45, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- I fail to see any use for OBAMA! either. You should nominate it. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 00:04, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete WP:FUTURE. It seems like all you have to do with musical theatre these days is to stick an exclamation mark at the end and call it a hit. We should probably
- Write for Obama we know our RS (yes!)
- Was he from Hawaii, do you have to guess *yes!)
- The first non black man black man who ever was pres
- And made it a roaring success (or didnt, depending on your point of view)
- He is the guy whose old wife is a charmer
- She wows all the folks saying hubby's Obama
- Now she is the one that should be underdressed
- The voters expect quite nothing less.... the voters expecks nothing less (or more, depending on your point of view).

Thatcher is a disambiguation page. SSTflyer 12:52, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete no affinity to all caps. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:59, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- I find it much more likely than not that someone searching for "Thatcher" in all caps is looking for the prime minister. She motivated a lot of ill feeling, not that I make any argument either way. Per the lede at All caps: "Short strings of words in capital letters appear bolder and "louder" than mixed case, and this is sometimes referred to as "shouting"." Anyone shouting "THATCHER" (or "THATCHER!", for that matter) is certainly more likely than not looking for the prime minister. If this redirect (and the one above) is deleted, I think perhaps MAGGIE! or Maggie! should be created, given its use in the infamous socialist battle cry "Maggie Out" (i.e. Maggie, Maggie, Maggie! Out! Out! Out!).--Nevé–selbert 19:00, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- I see your reasoning, User:Neve-selbert, but I disagree. People searching for Thatcher will just search for Thatcher. That their mobile phone doolalies capitalise it is because of this redirect, not because of them typing it that way. Or they are just lazy. What the real problem is is that Thatcher is a DAB and THATCHER is not. So we have things that vary in case, and that's always a tricky one. As a British person, I would say THATCHER was primary for Margaret Thatcher, it is not as if people are going to look for people who do thatching, though I know a couple of people who do exactly that (and one of them, his wife is called Margaret, which is another roll-your-eyes job as if that's the first time they ever heard that one), but that would be a WP:SURPRISE. I think best to take it to the DAB at Thatcher. Retarget to DAB per AngusWOOF as
{{R from ambiguous page}}

- Delete. While I believe Margaret Thatcher would be the primary topic for "THATCHER", I do think it might be a tad confusing to have "Thatcher" and "THATCHER" go to different places. The all-caps isn't necessary so I believe it's safe to delete it. -- Tavix (talk) 14:39, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was Retarget to Christina Aguilera#Legacy. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 21:48, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
- List of artists influenced by Christina Aguilera → Christina Aguilera (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The article talks a lot about artists that influenced Xtina, but not vice-versa. SSTflyer 12:37, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Comment There's Christina Aguilera#Legacy that has a paragraph where it starts listing people she's influenced. But it's not a list like we'd expect for a list article. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:01, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:RFD#D5 nonsense, WP:RFD#D2 confusing. The target is not a list of artists.... it is not a list... this is patent nonsense. Things that start "List of", by convention, are lists of things: another way to search as if we didn't have search portals, rfds, categories. This just ends up in a WP:SURPRISE as I am sure the nom had to find it is not a list of artists influenced by Crizzy Waters. Si Trew (talk) 11:30, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
- Weak refine to Christina Aguilera#Legacy. The nominator is incorrect since the article does list artists influenced by Christina Aguilera. It's not the kind of redirect I'd encourage creation of (which is why I'm weak), but it's certainly not incorrect, confusing, or nonsense. -- Tavix (talk) 18:24, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep and refine per Tavix. Just because it's not bulleted doesn't mean it's not a list. --BDD (talk) 20:02, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:01, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - No such list exists, and I'm not sure if it would be notable enough to keep even if it did exist. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 17:33, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- I'm going to note that we do have List_of_songs_recorded_by_Christina_Aguilera#B-sides_and_unreleased_songs, but that's fundamentally different given that B-sides are, by definition, songs that do see large-scale release. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 17:37, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, and there's more B-sides: this is pretty much WP:FUTURE as the R. If they are released even as B sides, and I don't know what that means these days because i remember when you had to get up to your dansette and actually change it over to the B side, so it can't mean that any more, so it must mean "stuff to fill up the release" or something like that. By the way Funky Moped was a hit only because of it being on the B side, the A side the BBC refused to play, while at the same time employing its performer. Si Trew (talk) 11:33, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was no consensus. The discussion doesn't look likely to change after a relist.

- Delete - No, Led Zeppelin is not the name of an actual person. (I did grin and chuckle, though.) CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 18:19, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep as {{R from wrong name}} and {{R from sort name}}. For those not familiar with the band, it's plausible that they might think it's refers to a person. Zeppelin is a surname after all. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 05:01, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Weak keep, this does no harm that needs to be corrected. I don't know that it does much good, either, but that's not sufficient reason for deletion. 64.105.98.115 (talk) 05:08, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

- Highly unlikely, as anyone following the link will be educated otherwise. It's no different to the (tens of?) thousands of redirects from incorrect names and misspellings that already exist. Thryduulf (talk) 14:20, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- Someone who is not familiar with the target subject (since there is always someone who is not familiar with something) may think otherwise. And just because WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS doesn't necessarily mean it's correct or helpful either. Steel1943 (talk) 14:48, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

- Keep, it's harmless and is getting some use. There were a couple spikes that approached 30 views/day in mid-July, for example. I wouldn't technically call this a(n) {{R from sort name}} as the band should be sorted by "Led" and not "Zeppeln". -- Tavix (talk) 14:34, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

- Delete. The very term alcoholism was rather WP:NEOLOGISM at the time, superseding words like "drunkard", but it has leant itself to chocoholism, shopoholism and various others. (the sign is not simply (-ism, but -oholism). WP:NOTDIC, although Wikt doesnt list it anyway. It is not as if this were melancholia or somesuch. This is just a madeup word really. As a regular supplier of empties to the Trade, I know quite a lot about both. Neither are pharma terms, so no chance of putting them there. Si Trew (talk) 10:45, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

No evidence this refers to the band. SSTflyer 11:06, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Keep -
- Per WP:R#KEEP, "If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do".
- The redirect was created years ago, so IMO the time has passed for changing the redirect without significant confusion. Alleged confusion is not very plausible at all. So absent evidence of any harm there is no reason to delete.
- "There seems to be no evidence of confusion, just conjecture on the part of nominator, and no argument grounded in WP:R. Laziness is the exact purpose of redirects, to be perfectly honest, and the creator of a useful redirect that saves one or two characters should be commended. We don't delete redirects based merely on conjecture. Someone obviously found these useful given they were created."
- "One of the lowest things one can do is steal another mans tools. So you have no use for it. There is zero reason to take away something that has no higher use."
- "Redirects are cheap. There are lots of little abbreviated things pulled up over the years such as {{tlc}} or {{tlx}} or whatever as useful shorthand for editors."
- If {{Tlc}} and {{Tlx}} are acceptable names for templates, my redirect is also acceptable as it is. If not, it should be renamed. --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:06, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. The allowance for short "Template:" namespace page names does not apply to the article namespace. In the article namespace, unless the name is a known name for the target, it is misleading to readers. Steel1943 (talk) 13:12, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
