September 21

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on September 21, 2009

  1. ====Redeem Me====

The songs are not notable enough for redirections (they were composed for a soap opera and I think nothing worthy happened to the songs) and I was the one who added a bunch of redirects on this article when I didn't know better. The band Caught Crimson is not notable at all, they have yet to even play a live show, are not signed to a notable record label,have no notable recordings. The discography redirect is plain horrible because I think the actress in question will never do anything significant to have the article.

Template:Explanation

Confusing name. "Explanation" can refer to any other explanation. All uses replaced with redirected target. Locos epraix ~ Beastepraix 17:19, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

various NRHP HDs in CT

INCOMPLETE REQUEST, MORE TO BE ADDED
This is a 7th batch of Connecticut NRHP Historic Districts (HDs), for which I propose deleting the redirect from NRHP name, to facilitate orderly article creation at the red-links that will then appear in the county-wide list articles such as National Register of Historic Places listings in New London County, Connecticut and in articles about towns that include them. Previous batches of similar NRHP HD redirects were: Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 August 31#various New London County, CT, redirects, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 August 25#various Hartford County, CT, redirects, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 August 10#various Litchfield County, CT, redirects, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 July 17#various Middlesex County, CT, redirects, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 July 13#various New Haven County, CT, redirects, and Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2009 June 25#various Tolland County, Connecticut NRHP HDs. As Aervanath noted in closing the similar Tolland County batch "While certain of the target articles contain information about the history of the town, and some contain a small list of sites of historical interest, none actually discuss the historic district as such. Per WP:Red link, "red links help Wikipedia grow", as they encourage people to build articles to fill the gap, whereas redirects do not."

Redirects proposed to be deleted:

Deletion looks like a good idea! --Orlady (talk) 16:35, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose deletion of redirect. Downtown Hartford is a reasonable destination. Note that the downtown isn't all that large, and the article covers (and could cover more extensively) the history of the whole area and the various areas listed as historic districts, whether city-designated, National Register-listed, or both. --Orlady (talk) 16:35, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Philippine College Of Health and Sciences

Bad name, the name of the school is not Philippine College Of Health and Sciences but Philippine College of Health Sciences, Inc. Marking "Philippine College Of Health and Sciences" as a redirect is not good, especially that there is no Philippine school existing with the name "Philippine College Of Health and Sciences".

Target makes no mention of redirect's title. UltraMagnus (talk) 13:19, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

England's Next Top Model

Delete status that is a not necessary redirect. Please see March 31 discussion. ApprenticeFan talk contribs 04:44, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - although I get frustrated by people who confuse Britain with England, this is a fairly common occurrence, and acknowledging it through such a redirect is not a horrible idea. Also, some of those who are aware of this distinction might not realize that the version of Top Model aired in England is in fact termed Britain's and not England's. —Zach425 talk/contribs 09:12, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep - while the title is not correct, in the minds of much of the English-speaking world, "Britain" and "England" are virtually synonymous. For that reason, it should be kept as a reasonable, anticipated search item. Think of it, nom: why did the previous RfD close as a no consensus to delete? I see no such urgency to do so. 147.70.242.54 (talk) 16:29, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
