Comment Let me clarify my decision to decline for you. In redirects from a foreign language, we must be careful to ensure that the name of the article in the foreign language can relate to the target. For example, 'Deutschland' redirects to 'Germany' because 'Deutschland' is the German name for Germany. Now, in this case, I don't see why we should have all these redirects in Japanese for a simple video game. Please respond to me on my talk page if you still feel that these redirects should be implemented. st170etalk 22:53, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect request: Traneberg Bridge

This request has been accepted. Please do not modify it.


  • Target of redirect: Tranebergsbron
  • Reason: The target article already gives "Traneberg Bridge" as the English translation of the Swedish name, and "Traneberg Bridge" is what the bridge is called in English. The name "Tranebergsbron" is not used in English, and this is the English Wikipedia. For that reason, it may make even more sense to rename Tranebergsbron to Traneberg Bridge, give "Tranebergsbron" as the Swedish name, and change Tranebergsbron into a redirect to Traneberg Bridge.
    I doubt that any reader will search this English Wikipedia for "Tranebergsbron" when looking for information on this bridge. I came here myself because the bridge is discussed prominently as "The Traneberg Bridge" beginning on page 293 of the official English translation of the popular Swedish novel Let the Right One In (novel); they are the first three words in a major section of the book. Probably most English speakers will follow a similar path to this article, reading "Traneberg Bridge" somewhere and coming to WP to find out about it.
  • Source (if applicable): the Tranebergsbron article itself and p 293ff of Let the Right One In (novel)
