Redirect request: Glenn Ford (Exoneree)
- Target of redirect: Conviction and Exoneration of Glenn Ford
- Reason: Will be creating a disambiguation page, in the meantime want a disambiguation because there are two Glenn Fords, would like people searching for the death row exoneree to find the right person and not the actor. Going to suggest Glenn Ford subject be changed to Glenn Ford (Actor) on its talk page. I do not want it to appear that Glenn Ford the actor was convicted of murder.
- Source (if applicable): See Glenn Ford and Conviction and Exoneration of Glenn Ford
Birkwad (talk) 13:59, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - Is "exoneree" even a word? How likely is anyone to search using that term? The actor is clearly the primary topic so no disambiguation should be added to that article title. A hatnote on the actor's page linking to the other Glenn Ford should be sufficient per well established standard practice. Neither article associatts the actor with the murder case so there is no confusion. Imho this proposal is a solution for a nonexistent problem. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 06:50, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I agree with the above, the actor is clearly the primary topic, and the hatnote is fine- creating a disambiguation page seems like entirely the wrong thing to do. I also question the use of exoneree, it is a real, but sparcely used, word. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:19, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

Redirect request: யுவான்_சுவாங்
- Target of redirect: Xuanzang
- Reason: Tamil Pronounciation
- Source (if applicable):
117.213.65.40 (talk) 08:27, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
- Typically, we only use foreign-language redirects when there's a connection between the subject and the language. Xuanzang is clearly connected to India, but India has a lot of languages, and I don't see anything about Tamil on his article. Is there a connection between him and Tamil? --BDD (talk) 15:51, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Redirect request: haemic iron
- Target of redirect: hemic iron
- Reason: Alternate spelling
- Source: quite obvious, in much of the English speaking world this adjective is often spelled "HAEMIC" instead of "HEMIC". If "heamic iron" is enetered, the search results in "haemus iran".
