This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on July 6, 2024.
QTPOC
- QTPOC → LGBT (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- QTIPOC → QTPOC (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned at the target page, or at List of LGBT-related acronyms. Un assiolo (talk) 22:25, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- I believe this should point to Person of color. But since it's not mentioned there, Wiktionary could solve the problem. It should be noted that this abbreviation is mentioned here, here Web-julio (talk) 01:04, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- and here, here, and here. many others Web-julio (talk) 01:05, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- QTIPOC also exists. Web-julio (talk) 01:05, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Which I added to the nomination. Dsuke1998AEOS (talk) 19:33, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
Santjordia
- Santjordia → Jellyfish (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Santjordia pagesi → Jellyfish (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Monotypic genus and species has no mention in the article. Better off as a redlink.
Also should blocked users be notified if their page/redirect is up for deletion? 115.188.142.52 (talk) 20:40, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:REDLINK --Lenticel (talk) 12:38, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per REDLINK. Plantdrew (talk) 20:48, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
Kemosabe (Kesha album)
- Kemosabe (Kesha album) → Warrior (Kesha album) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This currently redirects to Warrior (Kesha album). Kemosabe is the name of a record label that put out the album, but the album article does not mention anything about it being a name for the album itself. The article history also raises concerns about WP:HOAX as shown here. I do not see any value in keeping this redirect as it does not seem like a plausible search term and per the above reasons, it is confusing and unclear. Aoba47 (talk) 20:29, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:VN
- Wikipedia:VN → Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Visual novels (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Retarget to either Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard or Wikipedia:WikiProject Vietnam. I would lean towards retargeting to RSN, considering WP:V/N links to it, but I can see an argument to link to WPVietnam. I don't see how an inactive task force should be the ideal target for this redirect. OzzyOlly (talk) 03:57, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Most of the incoming links are intended to go to the Visual novels task force. Breaking all of those links wouldn't be optimal. It has almost no utility, so a disambig page would not be useful compared to its maintance burden. Ca talk to me! 13:56, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, per Ca. I don't know the etymology of the WP:V/N → RSN redirect, but going by the stats it's far far less used than WP:RSN (~10 monthly hits vs ~1500), so it doesn't look like a common source of confusion. Can't see a reason to change it, so keep. BugGhost🪲👻 07:43, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- I believe it means "verifiability noticeboard". OzzyOlly (talk) 17:19, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- Oh yeah of course - thanks BugGhost🪲👻 17:44, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- I believe it means "verifiability noticeboard". OzzyOlly (talk) 17:19, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- Disambiguate create a new redirect for Visual Novels WP:VG/VN -- the task force is inactive, so it is not a productive use of this redirect, for such a common abbreviation for Vietnam. The WP:SURPRISE of landing at an inactive TF, instead of the country WPP or a dab page is overwhelming. Replace all existing incoming links with the new redirect. -- 64.229.90.32 (talk) 13:55, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- Similar disambiguation pages in WP-space include WP:PT (with WP:PT (disambiguation) redirect) and WP:1st (disambiguation), etc -- 64.229.90.32 (talk) 20:57, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

- Keep, I'm not convinced that going back to change all the incoming links is worth it. The hatnote already takes care of people looking for WP:V/N or WP:VIET. I did create WP:VG/VN per the IP's suggestion though. Nickps (talk) 11:00, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- It's also not possible for links in edit summaries. Those will be broken no matter what. Nickps (talk) 11:19, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

Crows in popular culture
- Crows in popular culture → Cultural depictions of ravens (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Redirect leads to Ravens. Which is a different bird. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 16:54, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Corvus#Cultural depictions, which covers this topic. - Eureka Lott 18:17, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Stavros Kremos
non-sense redirect InterComMan (talk) 11:21, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Presumably Stavros Kremos is a person somehow connected to the company, but as he is not mentioned at the target article, the redirect should be deleted. --Un assiolo (talk) 22:28, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Per nom. 98𝚃𝙸𝙶𝙴𝚁𝙸𝚄𝚂 • [𝚃𝙰𝙻𝙺] 05:11, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
Albumoftheyear.org
- Albumoftheyear.org → Album of the Year (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I am not sure the website url redirecting to a disambiguation page which does not list anything related to the website is useful. There is nothing at the target page for people seeking information about the site, and it does not appear to be notable. NØ 09:57, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. The website was mentioned at the disambiguation page, but it was (appropriately) removed in April. - Eureka Lott 13:41, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Not mentioned at the target. --Un assiolo (talk) 22:35, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Siddiqui
Current target Muslim Kayastha is very specifically referring to a community in a region in India. Meanwhile this name found all over Pakistan and Bangladesh as well among unrelated communities. (e.g the name is listed here as a Sindhi name as well List of Sindhi tribes (in the "others" section) Kowtis (talk) 09:05, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not very knowledgeable in the subject, but I would suggest converting to disamb page here, unless there's a clear primary topic that someone can explain.
Note: this is an RfD nomination that I've helped out with on behalf of User:Kowtis who had trouble doing it themselves, they have explained to me on their talk page that this redirect should be retargeted to Siddiqui (name). — AP 499D25 (talk) 10:32, 6 July 2024 (UTC)- Would it be better to move Siddiqui (name) to Siddiqui? --Un assiolo (talk) 22:30, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Rajeshwari Vilas Coffee Club
- Rajeshwari Vilas Coffee Club → Zee Telugu (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned in target. Is a series aired on that channel, may belong at List of programmes broadcast by Zee Telugu but that page is up for deletion. Rusalkii (talk) 21:57, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- Likewise Seethe Ramudi Katnam Rusalkii (talk) 22:35, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- ...and very very many others, all of which created by an editor blocked for paid editing User talk:RahulBodke. Propose to delete the lot. Rusalkii (talk) 22:40, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- If it belongs there, someone needs to add an entry. (And maybe add some sources, that list article is rather light on those.) 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 22:39, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: List of programmes broadcast by Zee Telugu is not, nor was up for deletion. Jay 💬 15:03, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Raymoo
- Raymoo → List of Touhou Project characters#Reimu Hakurei (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
raymoo hackery is a name generally only seen in shitposts, and i'd honestly be surprised if anyone not nose deep on every touhou rabbit hole knew about it. fittingly, not mentioned in the target, implausible as an actual search (unless you're me), and google gave me nothing reliable cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 20:03, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Tentative Keep and tag as meme. It's plausible that someone finds one of said shitposts, doesn't know how the original name is spelled, and searches "raymoo" to find info on Reimu. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 22:53, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Tentative Keep. I personally believe that it is a genuine misspelling or respelling, but you would probably be hard-pressed to find a reliable source that mentions it being a meme or shitpost. Honestly, I don't even remember making this redirect in 2012, but I doubt that "Raymoo Hackery" ever crossed my mind since we would be discussing a "Raymoo Hackery" redirect as well. Regardless, the outcome doesn't really matter to me, so do what you may. — Nameless(?) 13:09, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- in your defense, it's funny cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 12:18, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:PDP
- Wikipedia:PDP → Wikipedia:Protection policy#Creation protection (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Hasn't been used in over a decade, and it's much more likely someone coming here may be looking for proposed deletion patrol. I recommend converting to disamb page.
P.S. I tried adding a 'redirect' hatnote over at the protection policy page pointing over to the PROD patrol Wikiproject page, but this was rejected by someone else, who suggested in the edit summary to "convert to disamb page" as it apparently hasn't been used since 2007. — AP 499D25 (talk) 05:52, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support. Everyone uses WP:SALT nowadays instead. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 14:22, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:47, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Wikipedia:WikiProject Proposed deletion patrolling per the nom's logic. The problem with disambiguating a shortcut is then it can't be used as a shortcut. -- Tavix (talk) 19:59, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
