Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 March 24
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 24, 2024.
MT25i
"MT25i" not mentioned at the target. The letters "MT" are never said together, and the number "25" is not present anywhere at the page. This may be a model number, but it's unclear how useful of a redirect this is as the title is never mentioned as a synonym. Utopes (talk / cont) 23:23, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- MT25i is the model number of Sony Xperia neo L. S03311251 (talk) 01:41, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep This appears to be a {{R from EXIF}}. Thryduulf (talk) 04:23, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 23:40, 24 March 2024 (UTC)- Yes, it is in, for example, the EXIF of File:Lacatan_banana_hong_kong_aeon.jpg. S03311251 (talk) 15:22, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: It’s the serial number of the phone. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 15:17, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
I'ma Chargin Mah Lazer
- I'ma Chargin Mah Lazer → Dragon Ball Z (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Related mem; not mentioned in page or anywhere else on wikipedia. Rusalkii (talk) 23:19, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Remove:clearly unrelated and not appropiate.--ReyHahn (talk) 00:24, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - IIRC, this meme phrase was put over a (large?) number of different videos and gifs from multiple franchises (my memory says kirby, freespace, and more). If we don't have an article on the meme itself due to lack of notability, then this meme has no real unambiguous target, and should be removed. Fieari (talk) 07:24, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete IIRC, the original meme featured Cell from Dragon Ball Z. That said, that's not saying we should keep, I otherwise fully agree with you, nom, and ReyHahn. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 15:36, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Pierre Connes
- Pierre Connes → Janine Connes (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There are about 6 articles linking to Pierre Connes, the problem is that the article currently leads to Janine Connes, his wife. It would be better to either take the time to create the article (I am not up to it), or just delete the redirect so that the red link appears. An {{ill}} template has been put in place in the concerning articles if the redirect gets deleted. ReyHahn (talk) 22:55, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as per WP:REDLINK. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 15:37, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Bang and the dirt is gone
- Bang and the dirt is gone → Reckitt#Cillit Bang viral marketing controversy (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Meme not mentioned in page. Section isn't about the meme or even the commercial the meme is from, but a related blog marketing campaign. Note that this is by a user who has created a number of recently-nominated redirects. Rusalkii (talk) 21:45, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment:
This redirect is a quote from Kitchen Gun, a parody of the Cillit Bang marketing campaign that is mentioned in theWait no, scratch that, this isn't the Kitchen Gun meme- it's the slogan from this ACTUAL ad for Cillit Bang. Shows how familiar I am with Cillit Bang's advertisements, lol. In any case, what I do find odd is that that section is... honestly rather confused? It's titled as if it's all about the viral marketing controversy, starts out talking about the television ad campaign instead, switches gears and talks about the viral marketing, then switches gears AGAIN to suddenly talk about Kitchen Gun, which is inspired by the television ads, not the blog.

Steelmate
Search results are various companies non of which are mentioned onwiki. Unlikely & confusing error. Rusalkii (talk) 21:43, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. I can imagine someone unfamiliar with the Geordie accent mishearing "stalemate" spoken in that accent as "steelmate", but we can't cater for every possible error of this type. To borrow the language used in discussions of WP:RFOREIGN redirects, the subject has no particular affinity to the north east of England so that doesn't provide a basis to keep this redirect and I can't find any other. Thryduulf (talk) 01:51, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Noting that I have seen Lunamann's edit to my comment, and while they were correct in that I did mean "no affinity" (rather than "affinity"), I do not endorse the editing of my comment. Thryduulf (talk) 16:13, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- ...yeah, that... that was my bad, I'm sorry. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 17:11, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Black Scrubs
- Black Scrubs → Christopher Turk (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Search results are entirely for black scrubs (clothing). Rusalkii (talk) 21:42, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Target is... a black character from Scrubs (TV series)? ...That's not enough to support the redirect. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 17:59, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Character does not appear to be referred to as black scrubs. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 20:33, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Surikiña
- Laguna Suriquiña → Taypi Chaka Quta (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Laguna Suriquina → Taypi Chaka Quta (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Lake Suriquiña → Taypi Chaka Quta (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Lake Suriquina → Taypi Chaka Quta (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete per Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 March 16#Lake Surikiña, closed as delete, (and I aplogise for not bundling these together at that time). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 21:21, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Would Template:Db-xfd apply here? Consensus has already established that there's no info on this lake; might not need to go through song and dance for another week if it's avoidable. Utopes (talk / cont) 21:57, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as per previous consensus. I fail to see how any of these are any different from the one we just deleted. I'll also note that save for Surikina, which was made by a bot to redirect to Surikiña and then immediately avoided-double-redirect by a second bot, every single one of these redirects were made on the same day by the same author. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 18:06, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- HOLD ON WAIT. THAT WASN'T IMMEDIATE. HISTORY DIIIIVE
--Okay, so, Surikiña was actually made first to be a dab page between three pages that... are redlinks (Surikiña, Bolivia; Surikiña River; and Lake Surikiña, which at the time was actually a circular redirect), NONE of which were Taypi Chaka Quta. All of the others were originally made as redirects pointing to this dab page. This existed for 11 years, before it was BLAR'd to Taypi Chaka Quta with the explanation as to why being... WP:PRIMARYRED?? Which also doesn't explain why Taypi Chaka Quta was chosen as the target, given-- as noted in the RfD discussion for Lake Surikiña-- Taypi Chaka Quta is NOT Lake Surikiña. The others were then scooped up by a bot and avoided-double-redirected as a group to Taypi Chaka Quta....This doesn't really change my recommendation; the old DAB page was nothing but redlinks, that's not enough to support the DAB.

Chaos muppet
- Chaos muppet → Dahlia Lithwick#Career (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Order muppet → Dahlia Lithwick#Career (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at target article. Originally was a redirect to Muppet Theory, which was BLAR'd as a non-notable neologism, leaving this redirect without a home and undiscussed at the current target page. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:51, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete muppet as per nom. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 15:40, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. TarnishedPathtalk 12:05, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Curious but non-notable.
Roguevania
- Roguevania → Roguelike#Growth of the rogue-lite (2005–onward) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Roguevania is not mentioned anywhere at the target page, although the concept does receive a smatter of mentions across different other games' articles. Only usage of "vania" is talking about Deadcells being a roguelike / metroidvania, but not a combination of these two terms. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:39, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Soulsvania
- Soulsvania → Metroidvania#Soulsvania (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
A game-genre neologism which is not mentioned at the target article. Is only mentioned once on Wikipedia (but would likely be inappropriate to redirect a concept to one usage of such concept). Dark Souls is mentioned as being "loosely considered a Metroidvania", and Soulslike is listed in the see also section. However, the subsection that this redirect was initially pointed to no longer exists, so it does not seem as if this redirect has a great use anymore if the concept is not discussed anywhere else. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:37, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
DNA Lover
Allegedly a TV drama, which is not listed at the target article, nor anywhere on Wikipedia. We have no content for this topic. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:33, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Twenty-Five Years' War
- Twenty-Five Years' War → Russo-Swedish War (1590–1595) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This war was not 25 years. This title does not appear anywhere at the target page, and is confusable with The 25 Year War. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:25, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete It looks like the phrase probably originated with this article. There is a Russian Twenty-five Years' War which redirects to Livonian War, whose dates more closely align with those given in the article. Still, neither term doesn't appear to be a commonly-used synonym. (Most of the Google hits seem to be random instances where "twenty-five years" and "war" appear close together). There doesn't seem to be enough here to warrant keeping the redirect. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:31, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. The title refers to Russo-Swedish wars fought in 1570-1595, see fi:Pitkä viha. In English-language sources they may be referred to as "Nordic/Northern 25 Years' War". Without a specifier the title is ambiguous. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 07:40, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Further comment on the relationship between the Livonian War (1558–1583) and the "25 Years' War" (1570-1595) which may appear confusing. The Livonian War features prominently in Russian historiography since it lead to a loss of territory. The "25 Years' War", or the Long Wrath as it is called in Finnish historiography, overlaps with the Livonian War, but puts more emphasis on the guerrilla warfare in the Finnish front, which continued even after 1583. Based on this pdf such term is absent from the Russian historiography. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 09:12, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
Marching Band (band)
- Marching Band (band) → Marching Band (duo) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I've been getting very tripped-up with this redirect, but I feel this title can easily (and more likely) be used for Marching band, which is, by nature, a band. The page for Marching band has the disambiguation page linked to access other uses. But technically speaking, a marching band is still a band. (This reminds me of the Climber (climbing) situation...) Utopes (talk / cont) 20:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:DIFFCAPS. The duo is the only musical group the on the disambiguation page, and the term would be a WP:PTM for any article about an individual marching band. If we need to provide more clarity, we could add a hatnote pointing to the List of marching bands on the article about the duo. - Eureka Lott 20:58, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- For what it's worth about the diffcaps, Marching Band is also a redirect to Marching band. With that in mind it seems as if Marching Band (band) and Marching band (band) would hypothetically be on a level playing field, if the two (band)less versions are currently considered the same, I'd think. Utopes (talk / cont) 21:07, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. This is the only article we have about a band called "Marching Band". Thryduulf (talk) 21:16, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Killdren
This is a group that used to be, but is no longer mentioned at the target article, and not mentioned anywhere on Wikipedia. Currently unhelpful redirect as we don't have any material on this subject. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:10, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete the Redirect (Before it Deletes You) as per WP:REDLINK. As noted by the older version(s) of the article that mention Killdren, this is the name of a British electronic punk band, whose only link to this article is that they have a song titled "Kill Tory Scum (Before They Kill You)". That's not really enough to support anything at all-- not the reference being kept in the article, and not the redirect. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 22:34, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Raman Raheja (entrepreneur)
- Raman Raheja (entrepreneur) → Legends League Cricket (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This is a weird case. The only reason this page exists is due to the creator working around the Raman Raheja title salt. The base name had been speedily deleted 3 times for A7 and G11, and this variant title lasted less than 24 hours as an article, before being WP:BLAR'd into the cricket league. Because there is only a passing mention of Raheja at the target, and no indication that Raheja is an entrepreneur, this redirect does not seem very useful without any content about Raheja being an entrepreneur at the cricket league page. Utopes (talk / cont) 20:03, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

This redirect should be deleted so its target article can be moved back under its title. – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 19:54, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review).
SOUND OF BERBERIA
- SOUND OF BERBERIA → Tarik El Idrissi (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Unlikely search term, not mentioned with this stylization at the target article. Utopes (talk / cont) 19:32, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
10-year-old Ohio rape victim required to cross state lines to obtain abortion
- 10-year-old Ohio rape victim required to cross state lines to obtain abortion → 2022 Ohio child rape and Indiana abortion case (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Nominating for deletion. The redirect is overly specific and too long and is therefore an unlikely search term. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 19:30, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Nothing has changed since the discussion closed a year ago last week. Thryduulf (talk) 21:24, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Keep per Thryduulf and WP:CHEAP. --Jax 0677 (talk) 21:27, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Close I didn't realise that their had already been a previous discussion on this redirect, I was kind of tired when I nominated it and forgot to check. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 10:04, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Not mentioned anywhere in the article, but most importantly, not mentioned ANYWHERE on the Internet. If this was a news headline that could be hypothetically copied in, that'd be understandable(??) but still incredibly unlikely to be naturally searched. This is just, bits and pieces of the articles opening sentence and lead, but as a redirect. Restating the prose of the article, but as a redirect, makes these specific 14 words a novel and obscure synonym for the subject, (evidenced from no user on the Internet has said this ever with zero results outside of Wikipedia). It can't even be a synonym, it's a synopsis. It's unsearchable as a string of words that exists nowhere else, and a year later has STILL never been stated anywhere else on the Internet. The alternative redirect being: 10-year-old (the rest of the title) "from Ohio to Indiana" already exists and is the stylization that seemingly headlined in reports. I don't really like that redirect either, but at least the title benefits from existing, and can be copied into the search bar and/or can appear first when users start typing this in, if they happen to start their search with "ten-dash-year-dash-old" exactly. Utopes (talk / cont) 04:13, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Redirects are not the way to promote very tenuous news reporting. See the NPR reporting in some detail on (probably?) this case, [1]. Essentially, we will most likely never get the facts straight (whatever the truth is, due to privacy concerns), so there is nothing of notability here for the article. Redirecting a headline of a single-source new story with no corroboration to our article where for this very reason the story cannot be published does not seem to be useful for anyone. --Викидим (talk) 07:21, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
VGA (dis)
Improper disambiguation redirect. Utopes (talk / cont) 19:14, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:RDEL#D8. It should have been speedied under WP:A10 in November instead of being converted to a redirect. - Eureka Lott 19:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. "Dis" is not a common abbreviation for "disambiguation". Thryduulf (talk) 19:24, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Christian People's Party of Saarland
- Christian People's Party of Saarland → Christian People's Party (Germany) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Redirect went to a different party (that in turn was an early name for yet another party in a WP:FORK). An article is possible, so WP:R#DELETE #10. Викидим (talk) 19:01, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Christliche Volkspartei des Saarlandes
- Christliche Volkspartei des Saarlandes → Christian People's Party (Germany) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Redirect went to a different party (that in turn was an early name for yet another party in a WP:FORK). An article is possible, so WP:R#DELETE #10. Викидим (talk) 18:53, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Bud Man
Not mentioned in redirected article. GnocchiFan (talk) 16:43, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect to Budweiser#Marketing. It would be more appropriate to redirect to the drink that the mascot ("Bud Man") is advertising, rather than the company that produces the drink. Also the Marketing section contains some information on this mascot. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 10:02, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

this title is way too long for a redirect, thank you Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 13:29, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete per the above. – GnocchiFan (talk) 18:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Simply being long is not a reason to delete, but it being an implausible amalgam of several titles is. Thryduulf (talk) 19:25, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Haha. Admittedly very funny, but delete. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 20:31, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Vos iz dos
"Voz is dos" is "what is it?" in Yiddish. There is a Yiddish song with this title, not mentioned in the target article. Article about the song can be created, so WP:R#DELETE #10. Викидим (talk) 09:01, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Revenge of the Baby-Sat!
- Revenge of the Baby-Sat! → List of Calvin and Hobbes books (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The exclamation mark at the end appears to be not used by Watterson. Revenge of the Baby-Sat is already present as a redirect. Most likely, a typo by the editor. Викидим (talk) 08:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. It's a plausible error, especially as multiple other books/stories in the series do end with exclamation marks. Thryduulf (talk) 12:40, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Very plausible error. Easy to remember the names of the books, not so easy to remember the presence of punctuation or not. Fieari (talk) 01:33, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
Aquariub
Misspelling reflecting mispronunciation by Calvin in a single strip of the comics. Calvin wears a snorkeling mask with water in it. Highly improbable to occur in internet searches for Calvin and Hobbes. Викидим (talk) 08:49, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Kansas City shooting
- Kansas City shooting → 2024 Kansas City parade shooting (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This redirect should be deleted mainly because as was said last time, shootings in Kansas City are frequent, including one literally today. The Super Bowl parade shooting IMO should just be merged into Super Bowl LVIII#Aftermath because gun violence is an everyday occurance in America and one fatality is not notable enough for an article, but I digress. In any case, this is clearly not the most notable shooting of the name, and it being so high in the search results and not the Kansas City massacre is clearly WP:RECENTISM. 134.6.74.198 (talk) 20:38, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I understand an RM is underway for this article, but that being said, I feel that that shouldn’t impact this given how this is not a suggested name (I don’t think) and there have been RMs for this article since the day it happened. --134.6.74.198 (talk) 20:40, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep The last discussion closed just two weeks ago, and there was strong consensus to keep. I find it highly unlikely that consensus has changed in such a short timeframe. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:37, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- Weak disambig A very rough search suggests that about half the current google results for "Kansas city shooting" are for the 2024 parade shooting. (Compare a search for "Kansas city shooting" and "Kansas city shooting" -parade -"Super Bowl". This seems suggestive that it's the primary topic, given that the remaining half is divided up between several different topics, but not overwhelming. Other shootings that have pages that might be referred to as such include Shooting of Ralph Yarl, Overland Park Jewish Community Center shooting, and the above-mentioned Kansas City massacre. I would support creating a disambig page and targeting there, but in the absence of such a page this target seems more helpful than deletion. That being said, re-opening discussion so soon after previous discussion closed seems to be in bad form. Rusalkii (talk) 04:42, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
- Reply - Agree that "re-opening discussion so soon after previous discussion closed seems to be in bad form". --Jax 0677 (talk) 21:16, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
- WP:TROUT nom for reopening discussions so soon, then either Keep as per previous discussions, or Dabify as per Rusalkii. (For the record, I'm leaning towards Keep, as it's the result of the previous discussion.) 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 05:21, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

- Comment - Right on! --Jax 0677 (talk) 21:14, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete or Dabify as per Rusalkii. This knee-jerk redirect is obviously nonsense, as the nominator said. — Smuckola(talk) 14:51, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- The discussion two weeks ago presented evidence that showed this is not nonsense. What has changed since then to make it "obviously nonsense" now? Thryduulf (talk) 19:06, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Strong dabify. More than one Kansas City shooting. In fact, there've been hundreds of shootings; while we might not have articles for all of the hundreds, the ones we do have articles for still fare pretty highly pageview wise, and regularly contend with 2024 event even with its WP:RECENTISM bonus. [2] Redirecting this umbrella term for one shooting in an entire major city is wholly unhelpful and obscures the other notable shootings that people may have been searching for.

- Retarget to Category:Crime in Kansas City, Missouri (since Category:Shootings in Kansas City, Missouri doesn't exist), following the same principle as disambiguating, as ambiguous with numerous other events. * Pppery * it has begun... 19:10, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- Would it really be helpful to send readers looking for encyclopedic content, to an unfamiliar page such as a category? This would be a deviation from the norm of, say, Chicago shooting or Nashville shooting among multiple others. The category can be linked from the hypothetical DAB if it needs to. Utopes (talk / cont) 23:14, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- I oppose this - we have an article on the exact event the significant majority of people are going to be looking for (the current target, yes it's recent but that doesn't mean it's not the primary topic) that has a hatnote to the event most other people are going to be looking for. Retargetting to a category that is much broader and which doesn't help people who don't know that the Kansas City massacre was a shooting is actively unhelpful.

- I have just checked again, and it is even more clear that the current target is the primary topic now than it was when this was last discussed - 100% of the results on the first five pages of my google search are about the 2024 event. The draft dab should be at Kansas City shooting (disambiguation). Thryduulf (talk) 12:44, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- The #1 result I get now is this, and then this - two unrelated shootings. Yes, this is a significant shooting but it’s obvious it will not be the primary Kansas City shooting long term. Ten years from now, this will not be seen as the primary KC shooting. 24.89.159.222 (talk) 21:07, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, Hatnote to Disambiguation - It really does seem the 2024 shooting is the main topic here, but it might not always be the main topic... and clearly it wasn't always the main topic previously, so searching based on historical references might be misleading. Because it's the main topic RIGHT NOW, the redirect should probably stay where it is, but there should be a hatnote pointing to a separate disambiguation page.

I know we just had a discussion for List of Cops episodes (and I participated in the respective discussion), but I made my comment in that discussion prior to noticing the existence of List of COPS episodes. The problem here is that WP:SMALLDETAILS probably does not differentiate the two topics enough, given that Cops (TV program) can be stylized as "COPS" and COPS (animated TV series) is apparently stylized as "C.O.P.S.". In addition, at Cop#Television, there are additional TV show/program subjects listed which include an inline list of episodes. So, with all that said, I'm not sure what is the best path here. (I've also added List of C.O.P.S. episodes for completion of this nomination so others know of its existence, but I'm "weak keep" on that per my previous statement about the "C.O.P.S." stylization; either way, List of C.O.P.S. episodes is a {{R with history}}.)

should be further disambiguated
, but the TV program was titled with caps earlier (see Talk:Cops (TV program)/Archive 1#Why is this article titled COPS (TV series) instead of Cops (TV series)?), and was moved to the lowercase by RHaworth in 2012, probably boldly. However, after going through the discussions, and leaning towards to stylization, I see merit in nom's minimum requirement of list of COPS going to Cops, hence striking off my vote. Jay 💬 05:09, 22 March 2024 (UTC)- I think Cops (TV program) should be moved to Cops (1989 TV program), with Cops (TV program) and Cops (TV series) and COPS (TV series) going to Cop#Television. If that was done I would support targeting the first three redirects to Cop#Television as well. I also know that that move proposal won't get consensus, so am just ranting about it here rather than actually filing a RM. In the mean time, though, my initial logic applies.

Following the closure of the Minecrat RfD with a deletion result, the last and WP:POINTiest outcome of that discussion I'd expect to see is the mass creation of all other variations of this deleted redirect.

Being sick
There are hundreds of different ways to interpret being sick, with a massive list of symptoms and/or other characteristics to choose from. Taking this hyper-generic phrase and targeting at one outcome of being sick, is not helpful as a redirect. Utopes (talk / cont) 03:46, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

- Retarget to the dab at Sick#Medical conditions, I agree that vomiting is the most common meaning of this phrase, but it's not the ONLY meaning, and so the dab is appropriate. You could suggest a hatnote, but I think that would be clutter, and just retargetting to the dab is a much better idea. Fieari (talk) 07:31, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

The only connection is that Cadenhead's is owned by J & A Mitchell & Company, who also own the target distillery, but there is no information about this product at the target (and there shouldn't be) or anywhere else on Wikipedia (I have no opinion whether there should be) making the redirect unhelpful.

Delete!
The word "delete" is only mentioned once in passing, never with an exclamation point, and never referred to as a possible chant of such word. Because the word "delete" is very often stated on its own, as a command verb, this stylization I feel can be used in many other contexts present on the Delete disambiguation page.

That said, it shows up a lot less compared to the Dalek's cry to Exterminate!, presumably due to either A.) it only showing up in the newer series, potentially as a deliberate parallel to Exterminate!, and/or B.) the Cybermen themselves being a lot less interested in flat-out extermination, wanting instead to assimilate populations into the Cybermen.

It stayed at that target until 2021, when it indeed was retargeted to Mario by user:Rng0286 under the stated belief that this was a quote from Mario.For the record, I'll note that the original target of WowWee is ALSO a bad target for this redirect, and would probably generate a fair bit of WP:SURPRISE.

- Delete as unlikely search term, as evidenced by its virtual lack of use. Sergecross73 msg me 01:50, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. It's kinda fun that it exists, but it's completely pointless. JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 04:58, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

- A deletion vote...? ...PERRY the deletion vote!? Not only is 'the full deal' not mentioned at target; the fragment "Mom, Phineas..." fails to show up, so not even truncating this redirect down would save it. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 12:45, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
Not quite my tempo
- Not quite my tempo → Whiplash (2014 film) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
An unmentioned catchphrase from the movie Whiplash, a phrase that is never alluded to at the target page. Utopes (talk / cont) 01:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - not sure that this catchphrase ever caught on in popularity enough to warrant it as a search term a decade later (or ever.) Sergecross73 msg me 16:18, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete - concurrently an unlikely search term, and not particularly specific enough to just link to this target. Sergecross73 msg me 00:18, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Would you like a Jelly Baby?
- Would you like a Jelly Baby? → Fourth Doctor (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
An R from catchphrase not mentioned at the target article, not a likely search term for the Fourth Doctor. Utopes (talk / cont) 01:12, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Weak Delete. I am EXCEEDINGLY surprised that that catchphrase ISN'T mentioned in the target article, given how ingrained said catchphrase is to the Fourth Doctor's character-- it's as Fourth Doctor as his scarf. If someone were to add it to the article, I don't think I'd support deletion anymore. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 05:22, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep {{R from quote}} / {{R from search term}} / {{R without mention}}, the iconic catchphrase from Tom Baker's version. It already appears at wikiquote:Fourth Doctor which is already linked to from our article -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 03:58, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
I am the one who knocks!
- I am the one who knocks! → Walter White (Breaking Bad) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
An R from catchphrase that is not listed at the target article. Creator banned for sockpuppetry has had similar deleted catchphrase redirects in the past. Utopes (talk / cont) 01:11, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep {{R from quote}} / {{R from search term}} / {{R without mention}} -- the iconic catchphrase for this character, which is featured in several memes. It appears at wikiquote:Breaking Bad (season 4), so a link to wikiquote:Breaking Bad should be added to the article -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 04:06, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think we generally link to WikiQuote like that, and even if we did, I don't know how we'd include that naturally with encyclopedic content... Sergecross73 msg me 00:17, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Just add a WikiQuote linkbox to the see also or external links section -- 65.92.247.66 (talk) 08:11, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Unless you literally plaster "I am the one who knocks" at the bottom of the page, it's not going to satisfy our redirect standards. And as you've likely noticed, we don't have quote collections at the bottom of fictional character articles. Sergecross73 msg me 16:14, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

- Good night, Chet. Good night, David. And good night, for NBC News → The Huntley–Brinkley Report (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
An r from catchphrase from a news report closer that is no longer mentioned at the target. Catchphrases, similar to r from lyrics, are not useful as redirects on a general basis. People searching specifically for a catchphrase are looking for information about this specific search term, which the target does not contain. Utopes (talk / cont) 01:09, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - No idea why someone would use that as a search term. And basically no one does. Sergecross73 msg me 00:13, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as not useful and an unlikely search term. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 12:26, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
