November 25

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on November 25, 2010

Gunnar Eriksson (1980's skier)

This redirect has been around for a while, but it does not really serve any purpose since Thomas Eriksson is not, and has not been, called Gunnar - I suspect the article name was a mistake. Because there was a notable skier called Gunnar Eriksson who was active in the 1940s, and also a number of other Gunnar Eriksson/Ericssons who are notable, having this redirect can potentially cause some confusion. bonadea contributions talk 12:38, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - Even though I created the redirect earlier, I did it for dab. No issues. Chris (talk) 13:02, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as confusing. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:14, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Delete as a G7 since the original creator has supported deletion.--76.66.180.54 (talk) 06:40, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Red haired barbarians

Delete. Not a common description of Dutch people, not mentioned in the article, not an obvious or very probable target for the search term. No other obvious target is available either as far as I can tell. Fram (talk) 11:02, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Someone clicking this link will not expect to be taken to the draft page. Unlikely to become an article any time soon; is better off as a red link if it does become an article. –[[::User:Schmloof|Schmloof]] ([[::User talk:Schmloof|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Schmloof|contribs]]) 10:27, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. Since the draft article would barely be talking about the individual. Someone clicking the link would not be expecting to go there. Better off as a red link for the future. -DJSasso (talk) 12:33, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Resolute 15:12, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - potentially notable so better as a red link. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:29, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: It is a useful redirect and should be kept per Reasons for not deleting redirects guidelines. Dolovis (talk) 16:21, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Which guideline? There's six of them. –[[::User:Schmloof|Schmloof]] ([[::User talk:Schmloof|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Schmloof|contribs]]) 03:03, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
On the other hand, it fits into WP:REDIRECT#DELETE, criterion 10, perfectly. –[[::User:Schmloof|Schmloof]] ([[::User talk:Schmloof|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Schmloof|contribs]]) 18:44, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

List Of Male Rappers

All of these are low-traffic redirects from mainspace to category-space. Some of them could really be flushed out as Wikipedia lists if they weren't just redirects. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 03:14, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Too wide spread of a list to tackle in one nomination. 117Avenue (talk) 04:54, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all. Cross-namespace redirects are bad. Resolute 15:14, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
