September 6

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on September 6, 2023.

Captain Hindsight

Captain Hindsight → Coon 2: Hindsight (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Is this the primary topic (has become a famous nickname for Kier Starmer by Rishi Sunak now). No clear disambiguation here; I think deleting it would be best. GnocchiFan (talk) 17:21, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'd keep it, at least for the time being. I can imagine people remembering "Coon 2: Hindsight" by the "Rise of Captain Hindsight" in its original title and thereby finding the target article through this redirect. If "Captain Hindsight" as an attack on Kier Starmer gets established, we can turn this into a disambiguation page like Tricky Dick and Slick Willy. However, I suspect this particular nickname is going to fade with the news cycle --- in fact, it already did back when Boris Johnson first tried it out in November 2020. (This in turn led to Johnson being dubbed "General Incompetence", "Captain Clueless" and "Major Disaster", none of which are still widely used, to my knowledge.) --David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 20:00, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nancy Taaffe

Nancy Taaffe → Peter Taaffe#Nancy Taaffe (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete since all information about this person has been removed from her father's biography, the redirect page has no useful history, and only a couple of articles link to it. --David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 17:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the above. – GnocchiFan (talk)

Elisabeth of Belgium

Elisabeth of Belgium → Elisabeth of Bavaria, Queen of the Belgians (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Retarget to Princess Elisabeth, Duchess of Brabant. Similar redirects exist for other Belgian princes and princesses, such as Gabriel of Belgium and Emmanuel of Belgium. The Duchess of Brabant is also arguably the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC per pageviews [1]. This could still be treated as a WP:ONEOTHER, with a hatnote at the top of the page on Princess Elisabeth. estar8806 (talk) ★ 01:17, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Christian XI

Christian XI → Prince Christian of Denmark (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete per the similar discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 April 23#Frederik X of Denmark estar8806 (talk) ★ 01:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Will he likely at some point in the future be King Christian XI of Denmark? Quite possibly; however, given that it's rather unlikely this coronation occurs this decade, or even in the next decade, it's a very premature redirect. It seems a bit WP:CRYSTALBALL to have this redirect exist at the present. TartarTorte 13:08, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Similar discussions have already taken place (Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 April 23#Frederik X of Denmark; Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 May 7#Coronation of William V). Keivan.f^Talk 14:02, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
