Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 April 8

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 192.76.8.84 (talk) at 14:30, 8 April 2023 (Nominating Template:G14). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 8, 2023.

Template:G14

I think this should be retargeted to template:Db-g14, for consistency with {{G1}}, {{G2}}, {{G3}} ... {{G12}} {{G13}}. All these other G## redirects are speedy deletion related, and it's inconvenient/confusing to have one that behaves differently. This template redirect is currently used on three pages, so it wouldn't be a lot of work to remove it's current usages. 192.76.8.84 (talk) 14:29, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Boomerang Austrailia

This redirect is titled Boomerang Austrailia, and has a misspelt Australia. I think this redirect should be deleted because of the misspelling. Regards, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 08:49, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yungur language

Apparently this is also an alternative name of Voro language (Adamawa). 1234qwer1234qwer4 18:05, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Bena–Mboi languages: Yungur appears to be an alternate name for this language branch, of which both Bena and Yoro are a part, as well as a number of others which are also linked from there. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:21, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leave as is. It appears that this is an old name applied to Bena, with only Voro also occasionally called that, and we have a hat link. E.g. the ISO code is [yun], and Glottolog calls Bena and Voro together "Yungur-Voro", and according to Blench the derivatives Yangur and Yungirba are specifically Bena. Note also that "Bena" is also used for Voro. That is, the two languages are not always distinguished. It's not uncommon for a language name to spill over onto a closely related lect, esp. if it's sometimes considered a dialect of the same language or if the first language is regionally dominant and so taken as the default. So it would seem that [yun] is both "Bena proper" and "Yungur proper", with clarification needed if we mean Voro. In fact, it would seem that "Bena" is more ambiguous than "Yungur", as according to Blench it's also used for the next closest language, Lala.
Yes, Yungur is also a label for the branch, which is why Yungur languages plural is a rd there. But that's a common situation on WP and for the sg I think the hat note is sufficient. — kwami (talk) 20:45, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Military style

'Delete this is a highly vague newly created redirect. It can refer to many things that are similar to the military, or that are of the military. 64.229.90.172 (talk) 03:28, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete by all means. I created it from a list of requested redirects all to do with clothing and fashion, but out of that context it is indeed very vague. (You are supposed to notify creators of challenged redirects, by the way, but you did not notify me). Ingratis (talk) 03:50, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
