March 16

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 16, 2016.

Adumbration

"Foreshadowing" is really only a tertiary meaning of "adumbration." More frequently, it is used as a term that means "to give a description of something that includes general points about it, but no details." In fact, the OED defines the term as: "to outline; to sketch; [or] to give a faint indication of." Therefore, I think we should delete this potentially misleading redirect. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 23:39, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Meghan Trainor filmography

No such list exists at the target. Readers looking for films which Meghan Trainor are going to find no information due to the lack of any information about the subject of the redirect. Steel1943 (talk) 21:58, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Romancing

Return the redirect to point back to romance, not onwards another redirect to an obscure song mentioned on an EP. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:21, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sweet, Sweet Pie

Same rationale as Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 March 16#Redirects to Meghan Trainor - unnotable song redirects but apparently, these redirects' titles are misspelled. Apparently, these titles represent a song by the name "Sweet, Sweetie Pie" on I'll Sing With You, but are obviously erroneous names. For these two, I recommend they be deleted without any retargeting alternative. Steel1943 (talk) 21:02, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects to Meghan Trainor - unnotable song redirects

These {{R from song}} redirects are several titles of songs in WP:GNG/WP:NALBUMS-failing Meghan Trainor albums I'll Sing With You and Only 17. These songs are briefly named at Meghan Trainor discography#Independent albums, but they are only listed there as names of songs on the notability-failing albums. (These redirects are not mentioned at all in the Meghan Trainor article.) With that being said, I believe these should be deleted since confusion could exist that these songs redirect to a list of albums where their albums do not even have articles, or otherwise, weak retarget to Meghan Trainor discography#Independent albums.

Singer Girl

The connection between the redirect and the redirect's target is unclear. Also, I attempted to see if this redirect is the title of a song or album by the redirect's target, and no such luck. Also, no page titled "Singer Girl" appears on the Meghan Trainor Wikia (meaning I essentially cannot find anything about "Singer Girl.) Steel1943 (talk) 20:20, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Juez judy

Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. Judge Judy has no affinity for the Spanish language. -- Tavix (talk) 19:31, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Aaj Shahzaib Khanzada Kay Sath (Official Page)

Misleading - no WP page is an "official page". PamD 18:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, it shows the user's purpose: he wants to create an official page for this individual on WP. The redirect target is up for speedy; hopefully that will take care of it. ubiquity (talk) 20:47, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Compositorial

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was restored article. Since the merged content was removed from Composite number, the preferable action to declare the content in Compositorial unnecessary would be to nominate it for deletion as an article. That can be accomplished at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. For this reason, I believe that this speedy close is warranted. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 18:10, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The merge was completed as suggested by Kvng, but David Eppstein removed the section completely from the target article. 63.251.215.25 (talk) 17:43, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page.

Azadliq Statue

Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. The Statue of Liberty has no affinity with the German or Azerbaijani languages. -- Tavix (talk) 16:47, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

-cest

I'm not sure of the validity of this redirect. I think I understand what the creator is doing, but I do not think it's encyclopedic-worthy of a redirect. Izno (talk) 14:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Airbus Japan

Not mentioned in article. sst✈ 09:13, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also exists, will be mentioned http://www.airbusjapan.com/contact-jp/ WhisperToMe (talk) 09:21, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: There's now mention of Airbus Japan at the target article. Is it enough?

Billboard Korea

Not mentioned in article. Also per precedents at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 December 29#Airfrance.ae. sst✈ 04:31, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Title (album)

Looking at Talk:Title (Meghan Trainor album)#Requested move, should this be retargeted to Title (publishing)? sst✈ 11:24, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Parent, Ontario

There is no mention of the name "Parent" in the target article. I could find no such place via Google, though it might have been obscured by the many web pages about Ontario mothers, fathers, etc. Cnilep (talk) 05:52, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Statute of Liberty

A statue is not a statute. —Godsy(TALKCONT) 05:04, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also okay with NCFF's suggestion. -- Tavix (talk) 04:07, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
A reasonable idea, definitely preferable to a keep.—Godsy(TALKCONT) 06:40, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

GradeAUnderA

Not included in List of YouTubers, hence there isn't any information about the subject there. A local search yielded no results on the subject either. —Godsy(TALKCONT) 05:02, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bigy

Could equally refer to Big Y (https://www.bigy.com) along with a few other things from a quick search. —Godsy(TALKCONT) 04:32, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Russian propaganda

Unnecessary redirects combining with mendacious interwiki from the Ukrainian segment. I propose deleting them В.Галушко (talk) 14:57, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep plausible search term. - Champion (talk) (contribs) (Formerly TheChampionMan1234) 23:44, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'm not sure how this is mandacious; it looks like a valid search term to me. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 00:30, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Useful, can't see how this is problematic. sst✈ 12:24, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as plausible variant --Lenticel (talk) 00:34, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I closed this, but undid it as I'd like for this discussion to stay open another week. At first glance, it's an obvious keep, but the target in the nomination was incorrect. It's not targeting "Propaganda in Russia" but actually pointing to "Propaganda#Russia," and that section doesn't currently exist. In fact there's zero information about modern Russia in the prose of the article. Because of this, I don't think it'd be helpful to keep it like it is. There's a few things we can do to mitigate that problem. The first option is to restore the previous article that existed at this title and clean it up. I'm assuming the former article is the "mendacious" thing the nom is referring to, but I think there's enough there to have a start-class article once the POV is removed/cleaned-up, but I'm not entirely sure. Another option is to retarget to Propaganda in the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was fairly commonly referred to as "Russia" in a colloquial sense, so it's not completely crazy of an idea, especially with how detailed that article is. Lastly, of course, is a WP:REDLINK deletion to encourage a proper article to develop. Thoughts? -- Tavix (talk) 04:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Polish electios

Polish elections is reasonable, "Polish electios" isn't, assuming "electios" is not polish for "election". —Godsy(TALKCONT) 04:29, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Neurodiversiry and Panrthera

Delete per Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 March 3#Mexicp. Qwerty keyboard location typos based on the letter "r" being directly to the left of the letter "t" (at least the first one). —Godsy(TALKCONT) 04:22, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rock Obama

Delete per Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 March 3#Back Obama. Implausible. —Godsy(TALKCONT) 02:15, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tamagotchi Secret Characters

Besides the word "secret" being vague, no such information exists at the target. Steel1943 (talk) 02:01, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'd say the fact that the information in the redirect's title is not present in its target article is quite harmful since it misleads readers into thinking they will find information about this subject at the target article. Being old doesn't cancel out a redirect's misleading nature. Steel1943 (talk) 02:54, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
