This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 18, 2024.
List of 2025 Indian Premier League personnel changes
- List of 2025 Indian Premier League personnel changes → Indian Premier League (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
WP:TOOSOON, not mentioned in target. Rusalkii (talk) 23:42, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. We don't even have an article about the season yet (2025 Indian Premier League is a redirect to the main article), so this is definitely too soon. Thryduulf (talk) 02:23, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Per nom. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 19:33, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Geydar Ilkhamovich Aliyev
- Geydar Ilkhamovich Aliyev → Heydar Aliyev Jr. (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Was at this title for about a day. This is a Russianization of the name which as far as I can tell is not used anywhere; Google gives zero hits for this form. I have been able to find one instance of "Heydar Ilkhamovich", used by a commenter on a newspaper article. Rusalkii (talk) 23:32, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
England Island
- England Island → Great Britain (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned in page, Google results seem to be for a mix of New England Island and various other islands in England, not the island of Great Britain. Rusalkii (talk) 22:31, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Perhaps this could be redirected to List of islands of England which includes New England Island, though this reads more like a search term and likely can be handled as such (i.e. delete). ― Synpath 00:57, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to List of islands of England, which is the most helpful we can be to readers and far more helpful than search results. Thryduulf (talk) 02:26, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: I don't think we should have redirects for random combinations of words. This kind of thing can be found in the search results and a redirect may cause confusion. We don't need redirects such as "Canada Cathedral" or "Russia Mountain". Kk.urban (talk) 06:11, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: agree with Kk.urban. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bazza 7 (talk • contribs) 09:18, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete yes potentially useful but confusing so search would probably be better. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:35, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Meeting the of the heads of state of German-speaking countries
- Meeting the of the heads of state of German-speaking countries → Meeting of the heads of state of German-speaking countries (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Meeting of the the heads of state of German-speaking countries → Meeting of the heads of state of German-speaking countries (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Extra "the" in unlikely places. Rusalkii (talk) 21:48, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete unlikely redirects --Lenticel (talk) 00:12, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: unlikely search terms or URL entries, and the article existed at each of these titles for less than an hour. Kk.urban (talk) 06:17, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Next Azorean regional election
- Next Azorean regional election → 2024 Azorean regional election (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Was at this title for a while, so I am somewhat reluctant to recommend deletion, but it'll be confusing as soon as the election takes place. There isn't an obvious umbrella/disambig page for Azorean elections. Rusalkii (talk) 21:22, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Legislative Assembly of the Azores has a redlink to 2028 Azorean regional election labelled as "Next election" in its info box and has a list of past elections there. It might be somewhat future-proof, but there's no guarantee it will be. Stats show that the link seems to have served its purpose, receiving almost no views since the 2024 election. It might be appropriate to delete in the interim and revived when appropriate, something like the spirit of WP:UFILM. ― Synpath 01:14, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Legislative Assembly of the Azores as that will inform people searching when the next election is planned as soon as we have information on it. Targeting next election redirects to articles about the relevant legislative body or elections in the relevant country/region is somewhat standard practice, and in this case we don't have an article about Elections in the Azores/Azorean elections that I can find, and Template:Azorean elections has no information about the next election. Elections in Portugal#Autonomous Regions elections has three sentences of prose covering elections in the Azores and Madeira, which makes no mention of the next election, and a link to the unhelpful template. Thryduulf (talk) 02:35, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Cognitive Brain Research Unit
- Cognitive Brain Research Unit → Risto Näätänen (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The Cognitive Brain Research Unit is a unit at the University of Helsinki. The current target is the unit's founder, who also directed it from 1991-2006. Not much is said about the unit at the current target, so I'm not sure if it will be satisfactory for people looking for it. However, I don't see it mentioned on University of Helsinki, either. I'm curious what the best target for this could be. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 21:04, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep, I haven't been able to find a mention anywhere else on Wikipedia and a sentence seems better than nothing. Rusalkii (talk) 23:37, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
November (upcoming film)
- November (upcoming film) → November (2023 film) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The film is no longer upcoming, and nothing links here. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 21:01, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:UFILM. Steel1943 (talk) 21:06, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom; was at this title for two years; despite that doesn't seem to be getting any hits at this point. Rusalkii (talk) 23:39, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per above --Lenticel (talk) 00:13, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. This was getting regular hits until mid-late December, but nothing since indicating that it's utility has now ended. Thryduulf (talk) 02:38, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Type 1 machine gun
- Type 1 machine gun → Type 98/Type 1 machine gun (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There seem to be several machine guns referred to this way (Type 1 heavy machine gun, Ho-103 machine gun) . I'd disambig the page, but the current redirect target was at this name since 2007 so there's a lot of history, and it gets hundreds of page views a month presumably all looking for the old name. Looking for opinions on whether to keep the current target or disambiguate, especially from someone familiar with this area. Rusalkii (talk) 19:26, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Dabification wouldn't delete the history the way deletion would. Just... edit the page, lol. Especially since the current target should logically show up as one of the DAB page's entries. It'd likely be a good idea, though, to look through the What Links Here page and edit anything specifically looking for the Type 98/Type 1 to point directly there instead of to what's going to be a DAB. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 19:37, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with what Lunamann propose, to first edit pages that links for the Type 1 aircraft MG to actually go to the Type 98/Type 1 and then turn the page into DAB. Jauhsekali (talk) 05:24, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Placeholder (Computing)
Placeholder#Mathematics and computer science includes four potential targets. It does not appear obvious to me that the target of this redirect is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Nickps (talk) 18:42, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to the dab section as a {{R from incomplete disambiguation}} per nom. Thryduulf (talk) 19:27, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Move to Placeholder (computing) without leaving a redirect as this is arguably an WP:RDAB situation as "computing" isn't a proper noun. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:15, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to the dab section as per Thryduulf, then create Placeholder (computing) as a second redirect that also targets to the same dab, both with {{R from incomplete disambiguation}}. I don't see how moving a redirect as per Crouch would be helpful, but if we have the incorrectly capitalized version, it only makes sense to also have the correctly capitalized version. Also, the bigger problem is still the target, not the name of the redirect. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 20:41, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that the lowercase disambiguator should just be created as well (and mark this one as a {{R avoided double redirect}} of it) per Lunamann and WP:MOVEREDIRECT (basically don't move a redirect unless it's necessary, and moving this one isn't). "(Computing)" and "(computing)" are equally plausible search terms. Thryduulf (talk) 02:43, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Search takes care of capitalization, we don't need to keep incorrectly capitalized qualifier redirects without a good reason. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:37, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Search only takes care of capitalisation for a subset of the ways people navigate Wikipedia. The good reason to keep this redirect is to help people navigate to the target they are looking for, but what we actually need is a good reason to delete a redirect and incorrect but plausible capitalisation is never a good reason on its own to delete. Thryduulf (talk) 20:54, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Lord Cameron (minister)
- Lord Cameron (minister) → David Cameron (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There is now another Lord Cameron who is a government minister (Lord Cameron of Lochiel). While the one who is Foreign Secretary remains the most likely search target, this redirect now seems less appropriate. I suggest we retarget it to Lord Cameron (disambiguation) or delete it altogether. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 15:54, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Lord Cameron: retargeting makes the most sense (and I guess it's more futureproof as well) 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 16:13, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Live at Montreux 1981
- Live at Montreux 1981 → Mike Oldfield albums discography (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Mike Oldfield is not the only artist to have a release titled "Live at Montreux 1981". Numerous artists have the same titled release including James Brown , Stray Cats, David Sanborn, Maggie Bell and Midnight Flyer, Yellowjackets (band) and more. --Picard's Facepalm • Made It So Engage! • 14:53, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Disambiguate: could probably disambiguate to the discographies of the artists who have made a release with that title? 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 16:47, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- EDIT changing vote to Redirect to Live at Montreux per User:TubularWorld's comment (makes sense to redirect there, seeing as that disambiguation exists already) 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 18:13, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Disambiguate or simply redirect to Live at Montreux: as per User:Picard's Facepalm's comments TubularWorld (talk) 17:57, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Live at Montreux as per HotMess and TubularWorld. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 18:42, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget makes more sense to me than DA, as they will track back in 2 clicks to the Live at Montreux article anyhow. --Picard's Facepalm • Made It So Engage! • 18:50, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Live at Montreux per Picard Facepalm and TubularWord, although that page could do with cleanup (particularly sorting into some sort of logical order). Thryduulf (talk) 19:36, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- It's in alphabetical order (based on artist name) 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 01:52, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

- Format string → printf (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Format specifiers → printf (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
As discussed in Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2024_March_17#%d scanf is also an appropriate target so the pagepages should be dabified. Nickps (talk) 14:33, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Disambiguate: disambiguating with scanf makes sense. I suppose String interpolation could also be a valid thing to mention in the disambiguation as well. 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 16:45, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep both and add hatnotes or delete both (maybe per WP:REDYES to promote creation of an article for the topic of these redirects) since these two redirects are not title matches via punctuation or capitalization differences. In other words, it could be seen as misleading if a disambiguation page is created at one title, but not the other. (My stance will be different if these redirects are unbundled; in this nomination's current state, it presents a WP:TRAINWRECK of possibilities.) Steel1943 (talk) 17:55, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- No objections from me. I withdraw this nomination and I will renominate the pages separately as soon as someone closes this (I don't know if I'm allowed to do it myself). Nickps (talk) 18:33, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Bay State Savings Bank
- Bay State Savings Bank → Worcester, Massachusetts (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at target. This is a bank which could potentially be notable. I suggest deletion per WP:REDYES. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 13:45, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: per WP:REDYES. Current redirect kinda fails WP:SURPRISE anyway. 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 16:49, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Shewtambar
- Shewtambar → Śvetāmbara (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Unlikely typo. — kashmīrī TALK 13:10, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. I agree this is an unlikely typo for the article name, however it is a plausible misspelling or typo of "Shwetambara" (one of the alternative spellings listed in the lead). It gets lots of google hits as an exact term, so it may even be a correct alternative spellin/transliteration itself. Thryduulf (talk) 13:14, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep It is trivial to find usage of this spelling: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22Shewtambar%22&ia=web Why did you even think it is an unlikely typo, @Kashmiri:? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 13:53, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
VOG-L04 11.0.0.170(C792E10R1P3)
- VOG-L04 11.0.0.170(C792E10R1P3) → Huawei P30 (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This code is not mentioned at the target article. Apparently is only linked from commons, but its existence is entirely confusing as the only component in this redirect that is present on the page for the phone's model is "VOG" (No 11.0., no C792, etc). The subsequent address, missing space and all, does not seem to be a likely search term or helpful redirect, generally speaking. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:46, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, it's a technical redirect so that the automatically generated links from images taken with my phone on Commons under "software used" work properly. The links work properly for most other phones, but since I use a North American Huawei (pretty rare these days), I wanted the link to work properly as well. Félix An (talk) 08:23, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. I've tagged it as a {{R from file metadata link}}, which explains the benefit of redirects of this nature. Thryduulf (talk) 12:51, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. I didn't even know that template existed! Félix An (talk) 12:53, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Burnie board
- Burnie board → Masonite (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- BurnieBoard → Masonite (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
No mention of the word "burnie" at the target article. To that effect, there is only one mention of "burnie board" on Wikipedia, which is in the List of buildings designed by architect John Dalton, as the Burnie Board Residence and Administration Building. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:05, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment the history of the camelcase redirect contains an external link [1] which explains the connection "A 1960s advert for Burnie Board – it appeared in an Australian magazine in 1963. [...] 'Burnie Board' is a type of hardboard or Masonite. The Burnie Paper Mill (1937–2010), Burnie, Tasmania, produced paper, high-grade sawn timber and sheet material like 'Burnie Board'" and multiple other web hits also back up that it was also a type of or similar to masonite, but everything seems to indicate it was a product only or primarily of the 1950s-60s so I would expect most reliable sources to be offline. Thryduulf (talk) 12:58, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as per Thryduulf's findings. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 18:46, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Link.com
I wanted to test this, and it turns out that "link.com" is a separate website that is built by stripe. Stripe's own domain is "stripe.com" and already exists as a redirect. The target in question makes no mention of "Link" on its own, or "link.com" for that matter. The article does make a passing mention of Stripe's "Payment Link" portal, but having the url as a redirect when this portal is barely present at the article may be confusing. The citation in the Stripe article that discusses the payment link portal, does not mention link.com. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:03, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- It's now briefly mentioned in Stripe, Inc.#Other. 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 18:38, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Gelovani (disambiguation)
- Gelovani (disambiguation) → House of Gelovani (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This page was leftover after I merged its contents to House of Gelovani. I had nominated it for speedy deletion under G14 as a redirect ending in (disambiguation) that didn't redirect to a disambiguation or disambiguation-like page (which I guess it wasn't a redirect when I nominated it), and then a user removed it and redirected it to House of Gelovani. I still hold that it should be deleted, as the section Notable people with the surname is not large enough for the page to be considered as "performing a disambiguation-like function". AllTheUsernamesAreInUse (talk) 01:01, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep:
as the section Notable people with the surname is not large enough for the page to be considered as "performing a disambiguation-like function"
- well, you did copy over the contents of the disambiguation page (which performed the function of disambiguating) over to House of Gelovani, therefore making House of Gelovani the de-facto disambiguation - so this page redirecting to the de-facto disambiguation probably doesn't count as WP:G14. To be honest, I'd consider reverting Gelovani (disambiguation) back to being a disambiguation page, if House of Gelovani isn't supposed to be treated as a disambiguation page. 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 03:03, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
- I guess you make a point in the first half of that paragraph; I hadn't thought about that. My thought process was that Gelovani (disambiguation) shouldn't have been a DAB page, it should have been a surname page, so why not just merge it to a section of House of Gelovani since it already lists several people with the name, and since I have seen many examples like that before. Though now that I think about it, I'm not sure that every Gelovani listed is part of the family, so maybe it should be reverted back and changed to a name page. I'll let other editors weigh in. AllTheUsernamesAreInUse (talk) 04:28, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
- Well, it's safe to assume that Prince Varlam Gelovani definitely was part of the noble house (being officially recognized with the princely title). Did some digging on some Georgian genealogy/nobility sites It appears that Mikheil Gelovani was a first cousin of Prince Varlam[2], and it also appears that Archil Gelovani might have been Varlam's third cousin once removed[3] (assuming ofc that David Kaikhosrovich Gelovani did in fact have a son called Almaskhan, who might have actually existed according to Geni[4]). However, I can't see anything linking Mirza Gelovani or Sopho Gelovani to the noble house. 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 15:41, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

- Demerge no evidence that half the people listed are from the noble house. This is conflating two different topics, a surname, and the princely house. If you have evidence all these people are of this house, then you should update all the biography articles with referenced facts that state that they are from this house, since the biographies of several of these with thi surname do not have any information about that. -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 03:52, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Western physical culture

While it is true that this culture did exist in the west, it is not described as the "western physical culture" anywhere in the article, nor does the article have anything to do with this being a purely western phenomenon besides that it "originated in Germany, US and UK", while also covering the phenomena in Australia. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:49, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- All of the countries you mentioned are considered Western countries. And calling something 'Western' doesn't mean that it has to only be found in the West, rather that its origin or character has some significant basis in the West. However, it is possible to retarget to Western sports if the current target is deemed unsatisfactory. I might also consider developing the redirect into a full article of its own.

A piece of programming not mentioned at the target, no mention of "me and" or "me &" although there is some loose mentions around Wikipedia of this programming.

Tenemos
This misspelling of Greek temenos, created as a duplicate article a few minutes before redirection and merger by its author, makes it difficult to find mentions of the Spanish word tenemos 'we have' using search. Such mentions include the Wiktionary page and those in Present tense#Portuguese and Spanish present indicative tense, Spanish conjugation#tener, 'to have (possession)' (and in the lead of that article), and Spanish grammar#Cleft sentences, as well as partial title matches, quotes, and citations in various other articles.
I think the Spanish conjugation article makes the most sense as a target, though {{Wiktionary redirect}} would also make sense. PleaseStand (talk) 08:59, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

- In that case, shouldn't you be voting "keep"? Because this type of spelling error should be fairly common, and readers might be baffled not to find anything when typing it.

Americanas
- Americanas → Lojas Americanas (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There are 41 different topics named Americana at the disambiguation page, which this retail chain does not happen to be located on. Lojas Americanas is the only title that includes the "plural" version in the title, but it seems to me as if many of the singular pages can also be interpreted as a plural, which could possibly warrant a target-pull. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:20, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. It's clear the nominator has not done a full BEFORE here as every single hit on the first seven pages of my google search (I didn't look further) is related to the current target, which is referred to as just "Americanas" in the article (although this could be more explicit). The article also notes that the brand's website is americanas.com.br and the operating company is "Americanas SA". Thryduulf (talk) 13:05, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Alternatively, I DID search this before, and apparently got vastly different results than you. The Brazilian chain did come up, but "Lojas Americanas" was only the first/third/ninth result for me, and S.A. Americanas was the tenth. The second result was Google Maps, consisting of multiple "Americanas" locations that weren't Lojas. The fourth result was for "Americana Manhasset", the fifth result was "The Americana at Brand (in CA)", the sixth result was Wikipedia page for Americana (culture), the seventh result was for Palm City Americanas (with the s, a sports club), and the eighth result was for Merriam Webster's definition of "Americana".
- Refining the search with just hits for the plural "(Americanas)" did make the results more Brazil-oriented, but not to the extent you described, as there were still other websites sprinkled in such as Palm City's. Wanted to bring it here because at the end of the day this was still the plural form of a disambiguation page with many entries, some of which can be referred to with this title, so it wouldn't hurt to bring it here to seek input.

As noted by the page mover, the term "food street" can be highly ambiguous and exist all over the globe, evidenced from searching "food streets" on Wikipedia.

Thermodynamics of nanostructures

The redirect should be deleted. The name of the page was an error, it appears that an editor thought that Thermodynamics was short for Thermal dynamics which it is not. The page has been changed to the more appropriate title Thermal transport in nanostructures. The redirect is incorrect, as it is not on thermodynamics, so would take readers in the wrong direction. I cannot find an actual page on thermodynamics in nanostructures, so it should be removed for the moment. Ldm1954 (talk) 04:52, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

- Please note that the old name is misleading -- that should matter most. The science clashes. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:32, 10 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- N.B., the redirect is comparable to having a redirect from
"Star""Satellite" to "Milky Way" -- misleading without rationale. Please check the article content. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:37, 18 March 2024 (UTC)- I'm not sure how misleading the redirect really is. As far as I understand, the physics of thermal transport would be a subset of thermodynamics. If I'm hopelessly wrong there, then sure, it might be harmful enough to delete. Even then, I don't think that this is wholly unreasonable thing to be mistaken about (hence a useful redirect).
- Regardless, deleting the redirect would break several internal links, which are easy to fix, but one should do that ahead of deletion. External links might exist as well, but that's more difficult to assess. I'd say that the redirect should be left alone for a month or three to see if it becomes unused. If that is established then it may make sense to revisit deleting this, but it still seems WP:CHEAP to keep around. ― Synpath 00:33, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, but yup, you are very wrong. Thermal transport is exactly what it says, how heat via vibrations (phonons) or electrons is transmitted from one place to another, for instance compare copper to an insulator such as glass wool. The topic is relevant as it changes at the nanoscale.
- Thermodynamics is all about what phase you have and how it varies with composition, temperature, pressure, gas environment etc. For instance why you can melt ice by adding salt to it, the solution freezes at a much lower temperature. Thermodynamics at the nanoscale is important, but has nothing to do with heat transfer. Ldm1954 (talk) 07:59, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Seemingly unlikely for DhK to be more associated with Dhaka than with the DHK disambiguation. As far as I can tell, none of the pages there have a need to capitalize the K at the end. Granted, Dhk is a redirect to Dhaka, and DHk was created at the same time and seems more fine as a double capital in a three letter acronym.

- Comment as creator Lenticel, it is not customary for articles to created for individual species of extinct animals, only entire genera. Anonymous 12:48, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the info. However, I did see some potential references during my GSearch so I thought one can make a stub out of it. --Lenticel (talk) 00:15, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, not mentioned at target. It is not customary to have articles for fossil species, but it also isn't customary to create redirects for them. It would be better to make sure that the list of species in the genus article is up-to-date than to create redirects for species that aren't mentioned in the genus article. Eomys quercyi has some incoming links; Eomys orientalis does not. No other Eomys species have redirects. Plantdrew (talk) 15:55, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Idealwise separated
- Idealwise separated → Completion of a ring#Krull topology (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not actually defined at target (but mentioned at Local criterion for flatness). 1234qwer1234qwer4 03:04, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget: As redirecting to a different criterion where this notion happens to be used seems a little odd to me, I created an entry for the term at Glossary of commutative algebra. It probably makes sense to retarget there. Felix QW (talk) 16:22, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Yar Chally
- Yar Chally → Naberezhnye Chelny (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Neither "Yar" nor "Chally" are mentioned at the target article. Utopes (talk / cont) 03:01, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep "Yar Chally" is the romanization of the city's Tatar name, Яр Чаллы, which is mentioned in the article. 🤓 WeaponizingArchitecture | scream at me 🤓 03:21, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, interesting. @WeaponizingArchitecture: It could be worthwhile to put the romanization somewhere next to such name to add context for people that click on/use this term, and why it targets the place that it does? If a mention is added I'd be good to withdraw this. ^^ Utopes (talk / cont) 04:05, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- There was one added to the article a while ago next to the IPA transliteration, dunno what happened to it. 🤓 WeaponizingArchitecture | scream at me 🤓 04:59, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Adelfia (roman noble)
- Adelfia (roman noble) → Adelphia (Roman noblewoman) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Incorrect spelling, capitalization, and grammar. Was at this page for a few minutes until moved. And come to think of it the page should probably be merged to Sarcophagus of Adelphia, since she's only known from that... Rusalkii (talk) 02:51, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, as the capitalization is wrong and improbable to be searched for; but the spelling is correct—the Latin inscription is the source of the spelling, and if it's misspelled, then people might be expected to search under that spelling. I don't see any issue with the grammar, except insofar as "Roman" should be capitalized; but that's not a separate problem. I haven't looked into merging, but the argument seems reasonable, if the sarcophagus is her source of notability. This isn't the right place to discuss a merger, but you could just be bold and merge them if there's no obvious objection. That should only affect the target of a redirect, but the redirect should be properly capitalized if we're to take it as a plausible search term. P Aculeius (talk) 15:53, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

A Bridge of Words
- A Bridge of Words → Hiroaki Sato (translator) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This is a book anthology that does not appear, nor is it ever alluded to at the target translator's article. It's currently linked via a hatnote on the Bridge of Words article as the only incoming link to this redirect. Utopes (talk / cont) 02:47, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Jonathan Höfler
- Jonathan Höfler → Jonathan Hoefler (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I don't believe this person's name is ever spelled with the "ö", and they're American so this doesn't seem like a likely mistake from a language that does have it. Rusalkii (talk) 02:04, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, my search also confirms this conclusion. The redirect has zero lifetime pageviews as well. Iljhgtn (talk) 02:23, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Human respect
- Human respect → The Foundation for Harmony and Prosperity (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
For such a broad concept, it seems as if this search term would be for people looking for respect (with respect to humans), i.e. just the contents of Respect. Human respect does not seem more particularly associated with a non-profit in Sacramento than it would be with just, respect in the general sense. Utopes (talk / cont) 01:43, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep/comment, since the redirect/page did not previously exist, and given WP:CHEAP, i did not think there was much of a problem here. I created a new redirect though that uses the exact phrase that is associated with this particular group, "philosophy of human respect" as a new redirect. If that full phrase, which seems predominantly to be used by this group, is preferred, then I suppose we could delete "human respect" by itself. Iljhgtn (talk) 02:20, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with the WP:CHEAP aspect; a useful redirect that exists is always more preferred than a useful redirect that does not exist. Once a useful redirect exists, it'd be a waste to delete it per WP:CHEAP. However, as long as it exists, it's most beneficial to ensure that it leads to the most likely target for that title. "Human respect", in my eyes, seems to be a likely search term. Now that we have it, I feel like the most expectable location for this title would be the page for Respect as a general page for a general term, rather than at the Sacramento non-profit. If "human respect" is strongly correlated with the non-profit as opposed to "respect", a hatnote could be warranted then. Utopes (talk / cont) 02:45, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Interestingly, Google mostly gives results on the Catholic sin of human respect. I don't think we cover it anywhere, but it looks like there are enough sources it may be notable on its own. Rusalkii (talk) 02:54, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

- Retarget-- either to Respect as per nom, or to Fear of God as per Rusalkii and HotMess. Don't delete, but don't keep where it is, either. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 19:15, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think that redirecting to Fear of God (due to the 'Sin of Human Respect') would be a good idea, per WP:SURPRISE. 🔥HOTm̵̟͆e̷̜̓s̵̼̊s̸̜̃🔥 (talk・edits) 01:48, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - Possible WP:XY, e.g. respect for persons and self-respect movement (as well as some aforementioned). Respect might be a good target (as with human dignity pointing to dignity); though this case may be more complicated than that one. Does not seem fit for a disambiguation page, at the least. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 06:44, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
White International
- White International → White émigré (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The word "International" is not mentioned at the target page. Utopes (talk / cont) 01:07, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, we tripped over each other nominating this one. My original deletion rationale: I don't believe the Russian emigres are commonly referred to in this way. Google gives mostly a couple different similarly named trucking companies which I don't believe we have pages for. This is linked twice, both in the context of a early 20th century political movement which I don't think is closely tied to Russian emigres and would need context on the target page in any case. Rusalkii (talk) 01:10, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as per Utopes and Rusalkii. Has this 'page gets simultaneously nominated by two editors' thing happened before? lol 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 19:16, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
