This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on May 29, 2023.

Space captain

No mention of space at target. Lots of uses on enwiki to refer to fictional commanders of spaceships, but doesn't seem like we have a good target for this use. Could also refer to a captain in the U.S. Space Force or other military entity. For now, I suggest retargeting to Matthew Moore as {{R from miscapitalization}} to match Space Captain, since that seems to be the primary use of the term for either capitalization.

Agita language

I can't determine why this redirects here. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 18:20, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WX

This page was previously redirected to Wikipedia:WikiProject_X, but another editor decided to redirect it to a completely unrelated redirect page, which I must discuss. Q𝟤𝟪 15:14, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Snowglobe Mountain

Not mentioned in target. QuicoleJR (talk) 15:11, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Space Husband

Not mentioned in target. QuicoleJR (talk) 14:34, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bilderberg.org

Don't see what purpose this redirect serves. Are .org redirects the norm? Gjs238 (talk) 12:55, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Appears to be a conspiracy theorist website about the meeting, which is not mentioned in the "Conspiracy theories" section in the target article. It seems User:Trivialist created the redirect from a red-linked description of an external link that was in the 2003 Bilderberg Meeting at the time. The article has since been merged/redirected and the link removed. --Paul_012 (talk) 13:24, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sylhet region

This redirect targets to Sylhet Division (Bangladesh) which forms most of Sylhet but it isn't exactly an equivalent of Sylhet "region" which also includes Karimganj district in India. I propose that this be retargeted to History of Sylhet which, in my opinion, is a better target because it emphasises on the entirety of Sylhet region, unlike the division article which is focused on only a part of that region.

  • Reject - In the modern sense, the term 'Sylhet region' is used interchangeably with Sylhet Division. Although the Bangladeshi division of Sylhet does not include the three and a half thanas now part of India, it is still referred to as such but the same cannot be said in the Indian side, where they prefer using terms such as Barak Valley and associating with that as an alternative. UserNumber (talk) 18:06, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Karimganj district's association with Barak Valley was only a post-partition development. For most of its history, that was not the case. I believe, as a "region" it still forms a part of Sylhet alongside the more specific Sylhet division. CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {CX}) 14:53, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Next Thai general election

No longer accurate now that the election has taken place. Links can be red until there's enough information for an article about the new next election. Paul_012 (talk) 10:24, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of largest automotive companies by revenue

This redirect is completely different from the article it links to. Plus, we already have the article List of manufacturers by motor vehicle production. I think this redirect should be deleted. rayukk | talk 09:15, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:XPROTECT

I don't know what kind of protection this charging cable refers to. Q𝟤𝟪 07:09, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Wikipedia:Protection_policy#Extended_confirmed_protection. @Q28: I find your references to a "charging cable" confusing; are you using machine translation? –LaundryPizza03 (d) 07:17, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@LaundryPizza03Yes, I am using the Chinese-English translation function of iFLYTEK input method. This sentence means “充电线” in Chinese, It is closer to the pronunciation of redirection“重定向”. Q𝟤𝟪 07:20, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Fix the section link per LaundryPizza03. X is a fairly well used shortcut for extended, see WP:XC or WP:XCON, for example. 192.76.8.86 (talk) 19:08, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Kasethan Kadavulada (unreleased film)

The film has released, and this doesn't link anywhere in the mainspace. Kailash29792 (talk) 06:56, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget per nom. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 07:18, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

拉 莫勒 安托內利尖塔

This is a mashup between the normal Chinese name for the place (zh:安托內利尖塔, literally "Antonelli's Spire") preceded by an attempt at transcription into Chinese characters of La Mole. Even leaving aside the WP:FORRED issues with a Chinese-language redirect to an Italian landmark, this name appears nowhere else on the Internet besides one Wikipedia scraper [1][2]. The unsourced WP:BLARed article in the history of the redirect, Special:Permalink/349197547, was not merged anywhere that I can see. In particular, the Chinese Wikipedia article created five days after this redirect, zh:Special:Permalink/12609206, doesn't contain any of the same text. Thus there's no need to keep the history for any WP:ATTR purposes either. 59.149.117.119 (talk) 05:25, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Twinkle/Bugs

I think such an object is meaningless and should be deleted Q𝟤𝟪 04:44, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:JX

I always feel that this charging line is not very good and should be deleted. Q𝟤𝟪 04:40, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete While "JAX" for "Jacksonville" has been in use for a long time (I remember it being used in the 1950s), I've never heard of or seen "JX" so used.
