Delete Very unlikely natural search term given its length. UnitedStatesian (talk) 22:39, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep, given this is what a googol is. It's plausible via copy and paste, or if someone knows that 1 + 100 zeros has a special name, but doesn't know what that name is. -- Tavix (talk) 22:43, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per tavix. Thryduulf (talk) 00:58, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per above. --B dash (talk) 02:37, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per those above. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 02:41, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep this one per above. Ben5218 (talk) 03:30, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. I'll take Tavix's word that the redirect contains 100 zeroes ... because of it does, the redirect is accurate and helpful. Steel1943 (talk) 12:57, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - I counted the zeros and its accurate (and helpful). Rlendog (talk) 17:02, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
Egg Gang
No mention of "Egg Gang" in article it redirects to, which is at AfD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/@world record egg). Redirect was originally a dup which was then deleted under A10. CoolSkittle (talk) 21:54, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

Delete Yes, that is how you write out 10^60, a British decillion, But no, no one is going to type that many zeros and commas into any search box, anywhere. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:16, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete as unlikely search term. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 21:02, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete as unlikely; searches for this number would probably be 10^60 without writing so many zeros. ComplexRational (talk) 21:30, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep for exactly the same reason that the googol nomination above, this takes a searcher to the content we have about this number. I agree typing it into the search box is unlikely but copying and pasting and links are both very plausible ways to reach this title. Thryduulf (talk) 01:02, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Copying and pasting from where? What links? UnitedStatesian (talk) 01:29, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- @UnitedStatesian: Copy and pasting from anywhere on the internet or offline document where they see it. Similarly links to Wikipedia can be found on many websites on the internet but whatlinkshere shows only links from current revisions of pages on the English Wikipedia. Thryduulf (talk) 11:00, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Copying and pasting from where? What links? UnitedStatesian (talk) 01:29, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Can't think anyone might actually type that in the search box. Ben5218 (talk) 02:19, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per above. --B dash (talk) 02:37, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - Just because a title is long does not make it implausible. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 02:46, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - per Thryduulf. It may not be typed in often but there is no reason not to have the redirect for the rare times it is (or copied and pasted). Rlendog (talk) 17:00, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Page Curation.
- Wikipedia:Page Curation. → Wikipedia:Page Curation (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Wikipedia:Votes for Keeping
- Wikipedia:Votes for Keeping → Wikipedia:Articles for deletion (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This redirect serves no purpose whatsoever and redirecting it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion does not make it any useful. Pkbwcgs (talk) 22:47, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
Delete per nom. Rubbish computer (Talk: Contribs) 00:23, 6 January 2019 (UTC)- Keep as historical: it's a remnant of the time when AfD was called "Votes for Deletion". It doesn't seem to serve a purpose any more but it doesn't do any harm either, and I rather like the idea that we might still have around the occasional little reminder of the olden days. – Uanfala (talk) 11:53, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep or retarget to Wikipedia:Deletion process to match Wikipedia:Votes for keep below. Per Uanfala deletion will not bring any benefits, and it is relevant to the history of the project. Thryduulf (talk) 13:21, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. No incoming links, and its existence has the potential to promote the creation of useless/confusing redirects such as Wikipedia:Articles for keeping, Wikipedia:Redirects for keeping, WP:TFK, WP:FFK, etc. Steel1943 (talk) 04:29, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

- The Bugs n' Daffy Show → Looney Tunes (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned in the target article. However, The Bugs & Daffy Show is a {{R with history}}; per the history, these redirects seem to not be about the subject at Bugs 'n' Daffy. Steel1943 (talk) 21:04, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
- Not nearly so clear cut – The Bugs & Daffy Show is how the Looney Tunes were shown in television syndication (in the 1970s and 1980s?... I think on ABC). Anyway, I'm definitely inclined to Keep these redirects (and then maybe add a mention of this at the Looney Tunes page...) --IJBall (contribs • talk) 21:11, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
- The last sentence of the lead of Bugs 'n' Daffy states that the block was shown on Cartoon Network, which correlates with my memory. —Ost (talk) 23:04, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

Ladyboy
Ladyboy sometimes means an offensive term of Shemale. Sharouser (talk) 15:14, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Furthermore, there is another synonym. See Lady Boy (song). Sharouser (talk) 15:20, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep this points to the primary topic for the term, the song is already linked from a hatnote and one can be added to shemale if required. Thryduulf (talk) 01:06, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep as primary topic. [1] AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:33, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

Voltron: Defender of the Universe
- Voltron: Defender of the Universe → Voltron#New projects (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Currently Voltron: Defender of the Universe redirects to Voltron. The Voltron article specifically talks about Voltron as a media franchise and the multiple versions while the Voltron (1984 TV series) specially talks about the 1984 cartoon version Voltron: Defender of the Universe is the actual name of the first season of the 1984 version that is the reason why I believe that Voltron: Defender of the Universe should be redirected to Voltron (1984 TV series). }} Dwanyewest (talk) 13:42, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Vehicle Voltron
- Vehicle Voltron → Voltron#Vehicle Voltron (Voltron of the Near Universe) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Currently Vehicle Voltron redirects to Voltron. The Voltron article specifically talks about Voltron as a media franchise and the multiple versions while the Voltron (1984 TV series) specially talks about the 1984 cartoon version and the second season of the 1984 version was referred to as Vehicle Voltron that is the reason why I believe that Vehicle voltron should be redirected to Voltron (1984 TV series).

Delete per WP:RDAB: capitalized disambiguator. UnitedStatesian (talk) 13:06, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep: misinterpretation of the guidelines. The guideline only applies to capitalisation errors in the term disambiguation within parentheses, not to any disambiguator word: "the capitalization and spelling errors portion only applies if (x) is an error variation of "disambiguation"". Lithopsian (talk) 14:17, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete as a WP:COSTLY redirect due to the use of capitalization in the redirect's disambiguator for a non-proper noun. Steel1943 (talk) 15:53, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep with over 700 hits last year this is an unquestionably useful redirect which is WP:CHEAP. The costly argument is erroneous: the maintenance required is zero, and it's no more or less likely to be vandalised than any other redirect so the actual cost to keeping the redirect is trivial at worst and far, far outweighed by its proven utility. .

Template:CVG character
- Template:CVG character → Template:Infobox character (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Template:Sdesc
- Template:Sdesc → Template:Short description (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This is a template redirect, a shortcut intended to save typing during the large-scale project of adding short descriptions to ultimately all articles in Wikipedia. However, Gonnym appears not to like this shortcut and has removed the links to it from the project pages Short description and WikiProject Short descriptions. As a shortcut is of little value if no-one knows about it, should this template shortcut be kept (and the links reinstated), or deleted? : Bhunacat10 (talk), 10:59, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support deletion Seeing a trend the past few years of templates moving from short, unreadable titles, to clear full word/sentence titles, which I personally agree with, I see no value in having a template, which is used only once per page, be cryptic. If this were a template which was used a lot on the page, I could see some value in the arguments for it saving time, but since it is used only once, better for it to stay clear and let editors know what it is, without them needing to click the redirect. --Gonnym (talk) 11:10, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support deletion {{short description}} is clearer in the wikitext; only benefit would be to save typing but one should be using User:Galobtter/Shortdesc helper anyhow :) Galobtter (pingó mió) 11:27, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support deletion per Galobtter. · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 19:22, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Please delete There is enough confusion about the strange squiggles at the top of many articles without adding another layer of obfuscation. A good example of useful obscurity is {{dda}} which is a redirect to {{death date and age}}; the shortcut is useful in tables listing dozens of people along with birth/death dates. However, {{death date and age}} should be used when it appears only once in an infobox. Johnuniq (talk) 21:51, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Ascending chain
- Ascending chain → Total order (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
No mention of term in target article. PamD 10:26, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- The term "chain" is defined there, and it is easy enough to understand what an "ascending" chain is in the context of a total order. But ascending chain condition is a reasonable target as well. —Kusma (t·c) 13:12, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: the nominator has the point; I know I have made the redirect but maybe I was little too lazy. The readers may be able to guess the meaning of ascending but that’s a very bad practice (the readers should not be asked to find the definitions themselves). ACC is related but it’s about the condition on a partially ordered set and so it’s not an appropriate redirect target. —- Taku (talk) 15:15, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Incidentally, there is an article “Infinite descending chain”; what is needed is an article ascending chain and descending chain. —- Taku (talk) 15:22, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Nokmim

- Nokim → Nakam (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Jewish Avengers → Nakam (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Nokmim is the Hebrew word for "Avengers", it was the name of several Jewish partisan groups in Eastern Europe during the Holocaust, none of which were directly related to the later Nakam group that tried to get revenge. Delete per WP:REDLINK. Catrìona (talk) 19:00, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
- Looking at the interwikis, the Hebrew wiki link is for HaNokmim, "organized the final stages of World War II and thereafter" -- which would appear to be the relevant concept for this redirect. If User:Catrìona is correct that Nakam should be identified as a different concept, then a new item for it should be created on Wikidata, and the various current sitelinks be assigned to one or the other appropriately. It might be worth starting a new stub here (perhaps based on a translation of the he-wiki article), that these present redirects could be updated to point to. The subject does appear significant. Jheald (talk) 18:15, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- @Jheald: The hewiki article on "HaNokmim" actually discusses two separate groups, Nakam and Tilhas Tizig Gesheften, both of which already have enwiki articles. A dab page is a possible solution, but the phrase "(Jewish) Avengers" is probably too vague for a separate dab page from Avenger, considering that across history there are many Jews who have sought revenge for various offenses. And I don't think it would make sense to redirect "Jewish Avengers" or a Hebrew word for Avenger to that dab page, per Wikipedia:Redirects from foreign languages. Catrìona (talk) 18:22, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- @Catrìona: So, probably makes sense to create a stub-dab at Nokmim (or at one of the terms being discussed), that would pick up incoming interwiki clicks and appropriately dab them. No opinion as to whether it would make sense to include a link from Avenger to that new page, but you may be right that it might be too niche a meaning. Jheald (talk) 18:35, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- I'm not sure it makes sense to keep Nokmim as stub or dab just for interwiki purposes: the Czech, German, Romanian and Spanish interwiki articles are all about Nakam itself. Besides, as stated above, Nokmim was the name of several Jewish partisan brigades during the Holocaust itself. Catrìona (talk) 18:55, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

Catrìona (talk) 18:22, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- Keep or disambiguate "Nokmim" and "Nokim"; disambiguate "Jewish avenger" or hatnote to Goel. The Modern Hebrew name for this group he:הנוקמים transliterates to haNokmim (pl.), i.e. Nokmim (pl.) and Nok(i)m (sg.). If we don't have information about the other Nokmim on the English Wikipedia, then Nakam stands as the primary topic. If we do, a disambiguation page would be appropriate. As for "Jewish avenger", this can also refer to Goel (i.e. "avenger of blood") so disambiguation would be appropriate, whether by a standalone disambiguation page or by a hatnote.

Wikipedia:Votes for sanction
- Wikipedia:Votes for sanction → Wikipedia:Requests for comment (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This isn't really a useful redirect as there hasn't been ever been voting for sanction in the first place when I look at the history of this redirect. There were only 5 pageviews over the past year which suggests that this redirect isn't really useful. Pkbwcgs (talk) 10:16, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget to Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User conduct. There is useful history to this redirect that is worth keeping and RFC/U was the process this idea related to. Thryduulf (talk) 13:42, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

Post-Tropical Cyclone Michael

Michael in 2000 also became post-tropical B dash (talk) 04:51, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Weak keep, considering that the current target is the "de facto" WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for this redirect, considering that the target is currently named "Hurricane Michael" and not "Hurricane Michael (2018)". A possible resolution may be to create Post-Tropical Cyclone Michael (2000) as a redirect and have it target Hurricane Michael (2000). Steel1943 (talk) 05:30, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

suggest deletion or other more relevant redirect. It appears that Crate Amplifiers are no longer in production, and there is no article currently for the parent company most relevant to the topic (St Louis Music). synthfiend (talk) 20:22, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

- It should be changed regardless, but I don't know if it was bombed by the IJAAS or IJNAS. It certainly wasn't bombed by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force, which is where this currently redirects to. - BilCat (talk) 11:01, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
