October 18

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on October 18, 2023.

Lianne Morgan

Not mentioned in target. Comes up in passing in a few other places (Bob Herbert (manager), Chris Herbert, List of pre-fame band departures) but all of those direct to Spice Girls anyway. Could be retargeted to Leanne Morgan as a reasonable typo. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 04:25, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suzanne Tinker

Not mentioned in target or anywhere else in English WP, and not linked from anywhere in mainspace. Delete. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 04:10, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Her name redirects to the Spice_Girls article. She is not mentioned in the article. Her claim to fame is that she auditioned (but was not a member) of ''Touch'', a band that went on to become the Spice Girls. Her inclusion in Category:Musicians from Sheffield appears to be spurious. I can't find any evidence that she has had a successful career in music. Delete 2A00:23C2:8B08:E501:F50F:AAEE:237A:FF84 (talk) 04:48, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

UTC–13:00

There is no such time zone as UTC-13:00, and there is no mention of UTC-13:00 on the target page (UTC-10:00). 132.234.228.163 (talk) 01:51, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: I'm rather confused by this. It seems that that a sentence The time zone is the only one reaching the hypothetical UTC–13:00. was in the article at the time of creation of this redirect, so I understand why it was created, but that was later removed and when it was in the article it was uncited. Unless this is added back with a relevant citation, these should be deleted. TartarTorte 03:08, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

インド

Delete per WP:FOREIGN as an inappropriate non-English redirect. (Direct translation where the native/original form of the title is in English) Johnj1995 (talk) 01:44, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Goody Goody Gumdrops

I've recently created an article for the New Zealand ice cream flavour Goody Goody Gum Drops. This poses an interesting question: should this redirect to the ice cream flavour, or should a disambiguation page be created? To me it appears that the ice cream flavour is the primary topic as it is considered to be 'iconic' to New Zealand, and (I believe) is much more well known than a song from 1968 by a pop band whose Wikipedia article has 3,000 views in the past month. —Panamitsu (talk) 01:18, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Сaesium

Mixed-script redirect (Cyrillic C, rest Latin) with no apparent justification. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 00:21, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

印度

Delete per WP:FOREIGN as an inappropriate non-English redirect. (Direct translation where the native/original form of the title is in English) Johnj1995 (talk) 00:01, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep: I would say that with the shared border with China, diplomacy (or lack thereof) between the two countries, and their border skirmishes, there's probably enough affinity, but it's not the strongest case ever. I wouldn't say that every country should have a redirect for every other country in every language, but this one seems to have some tie to the country it's targetting.
