C2H4ClO3P was created by mistake: formula of Ethephon is …H6… not …H4…. I have not found molecule in enWiki with formula C2H4ClO3P. I propose to delete it. Gyimhu (talk) 23:19, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Sl" is in no way a valid shorting of "Sherlock", and if it is, it can be valid for any of the 11 Sherlock Holmes TV series listed at Sherlock Holmes (disambiguation)#Television. Gonnym (talk) 22:02, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target, doing an internet search for these terms didn't turn up anything meaningful. Based on the pattern, I would guess that "Cetpot" is some sort of initialism referring to the rebooted Planet of the Apes series, but there's no indication that it's widely used enough to justify redirects. I suggest deletion unless someone can provide a proper justification. signed, Rosguill talk 19:57, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've just redirected Bully boy, previously an article about the broad concept indicated by the title and a specific practice at Yale University, to Bully Boy, about an unrelated play (see Talk:Bully boy). As a result this redirect is left without any plausible targets: it's not appropriate to retarget it to Bully Boy, there are no other articles that mention this term, and most Google results for the phrase seem to refer to clubs of pit bull owners, a topic not covered in the encyclopaedia. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 13:52, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This seems like a very obscure way of abbreviating one's name, unlike "JFK" or even "J.F. Kennedy". It could thus be argued that this is an obscure synonym and deleted per point 8 of WP:RFD#DELETE. Additionally, having a first name but not a surname in the title makes the primary topic ambiguous (though with well-known exceptions such as "JFK"). "John f k" could arguably refer to John F. Kelly, among others; hence, WP:XY also applies for this uncommon abbreviation. ComplexRational (talk) 13:15, 13 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No, because that would not be a disambiguation page, it would be a search index of partial title matches and best guesses. Plus, anthropometry is pretty much already that. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:06, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per what's said at {{R from EXIF}}. There's no way to ascertain precise usage. Nyttend (talk) 11:07, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • It seems like this is necessary, but I would prefer we make it not so. Do we get this exact string from machine-generated metadata? Can we automate anything on the Wikimedia side to simply link to Samsung? It's going to pollute the search box and confuse readers in the meantime. --BDD (talk) 20:32, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • BDD, sorry, there's nothing that can be done on the software side. Literally the only choices, as far as I can tell, are to retain this redirect or to find all of the files with this in the metadata (if that's possible) and edit the metadata to say something else. Not easy (and potentially deceptive, in case anyone's depending on this) and definitely not worth the effort. Nyttend (talk) 20:16, 18 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Roberts Barracks

The result of the discussion was no consensus. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 03:49, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target, an internet search would indicate that other similarly named barracks exist in other locations. In light of the possible confusion, while Roberts Barracks (Larkhill) or something similar would be acceptable despite lacking mention in the article, I think that this redirect, without a disambiguator, should either be deleted or pointed to a more appropriate topic. signed, Rosguill talk 20:16, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like there are three mentioned in WP articles – Germany, Singapore, and Larkhill – with Larkhill perhaps qualifying as primary: [1]. The mentions should be reviewed to verify and target the correct articles or dab, perhaps by someone familiar with the topic or with access to some of the offline refs. I created the redirect for use by List of Royal Artillery batteries. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 21:51, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The word "diznick" is used in the song, and may have even been coined there, but appears to have broader usage (both in the same sense as in the song [2] and apparently as a portmanteau of Disney and Nickelodeon [3]). Moreover, the term is not mentioned in the target, making the redirect of little use. signed, Rosguill talk 18:26, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You know, if you google Diznick http://www.google.com/search?q=diznick the FIRST result you will get is Stupid Hoe. In fact, so many people say Diznick word is made by Nicki Minaj. Barracuda41 (talk) 20:05, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the first link you posted leads to a 2016 song, while Stupid Hoe is 2011, and the other link you posted leads to an article where it says DizNick (with the N capitalised as if it was a compound word), which means that it has nothing to do with Diznick (the one that has the N lowercase and said by Nicki Minaj) Barracuda41 (talk) 20:08, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete all that no one has advocated to keep, no consensus on the rest (retargeting where suggested).

Delete More natural language question redirects; these were omitted from Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 July 8#What is a museum, but the same logic there applies to these.

  • Keep:
How email works - target describes in detail how email works.
Retarget:
How chocolate is made to Chocolate#Production, where it is explained in great detail how chocolate is made.
How elements are arranged in the Periodic Table to Group (periodic table), which explains in detail several methods for how elements are arranged in the Periodic Table.
Delete:
This years download festival - WP:NOTDIRECTORY, target does not indicate the dates of any upcoming festivals, maintenance issue, and grammatically incorrect.
How Windows became Popular - subjective, described poorly at the current target. Also, Windows has not been renamed Popular, it is still Windows.
How the ancient Egyptians divided water - imprecise question, with only one of many possible meanings answered at the target. I feel that if someone is familiar enough with the topic to ask this question in reference to the given target, they'll already know to look for that target instead.
Who is responsible for these pages - imprecise question, and cross-namespace redirect.
Why Aren't These Pages Copyedited - imprecise question, and cross-namespace redirect.
Why we haven't seen aliens (weak delete) - the Fermi paradox is a good list of possible explanations for Fermi's version of this question, but there are other versions. Some of them are linked as see-alsos in this target, so maybe it serves readers anyway, but I'm leaning delete for being imprecise.
Why the battle of blue licks was a loss - subjective; the article indicates it was a victory, just not for the Americans. Also does not explain why.
-- Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 12:28, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete:
    • How chocolate is made: Has negligible visit count. People are more likely to search "Chocolate" and then search for this item, so it is not a plausible search aid.
    • This years download festival: Zero page visit stats. People are more like to search "download festival".
    • How Windows became Popular: Misleading and subjective; looks more like an attempt in promoting one's point of view. The peculiar spelling contributes to low page view stats. Unlikely search term.
    • How email works: Same as the top two items above.
    • How the ancient Egyptians divided water: Zero page view stats and misleading. It requires one to know in advance that Egyptians did "divide" water, then get mislead by the vague and ambiguous nature of the title. Just how many of you who have not clicked on the link know that it is not an agricultural topic?
    • Who is responsible for these pages: Misleading title, misleading target, and probably a form of a black humor or attempt in ridicule. Page view stats shows there is zero need for retargetting it.
    • Why Aren't These Pages Copyedited: Same as above, but its spelling implies someone was trying to make a point. Its use for the reader was not even a concern. The person who asks such a question already knows the meaning of "copy editing" and thus, needs not visit the copy editing article. I am sure among the trillions of policy pages in Wikipedia, there is one that says don't make a point at the expense of Wikipedia's readership.
    • Why the battle of blue licks was a loss: Lacking page view stat; low discoverability due to poor spelling; plus, one must already know there was a "Battle of Blue Licks", in which case, the reader would simply search "Blue Licks". In addition, one must already be mislead into thinking the battle of Blue Licks was a loss!

The result of the discussion was moot. Per the result of Wikipedia:Move review/Log/2019 July#Persian people, the article and redirect have been reversed. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 12:54, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Persian (disambiguation page). Persians is nearly as ambiguous as Persian, and it can and frequently does refer to one of the other listings on the DAB page. SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:39, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Persian (disambiguation page). It is as ambiguous as Persian.--SharabSalam (talk) 11:06, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – The primary topic is clearly Persian people. If someone says the word "Persians" with no other context, no one will presume that one is referring to any of the things listed at the Persian dab page, and most of those things cannot even be called "Persians" (as opposed to "Persian"). "Persians" and "Persian" are two fundamentally different words...that's why other ethnic group articles follow this scheme, as suggested by WP:PLURAL and WP:NCET, and why we have things like a dab at German but Germans as a people article. There is no reason why the articles relating to Persian should deviate from the usual practice, per WP:CONSISTENCY. Also, I would suggest that this request should not've been made until the WP:MR in relation to Persian people concludes. RGloucester — ☎ 18:11, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per RGloucester's comprehensive argument (the RM has since been closed though). For the singular, the people and the language are both prominent enough to be primary topic if the other didn't exist. "Persians" alone almost always refers to the people. --BDD (talk) 18:21, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that there is a move review presently OPEN to contest the closing of that RM. RGloucester — ☎ 18:30, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ah! I misunderstood "MR" as "RM", since I've always thought of the former as "MRV", but of course you're right. I'll leave a note there about this discussion. --BDD (talk) 19:27, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The article Persian cat uses the word "Persians" to refer to the cats 39 times, or it did when I checked last week. 125.9.31.50 (talk) 01:18, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, so should we redirect Swedes to Swede (disambiguation), so as to avoid confusing anyone as to whether we were referring to the type of turnip, rather than the people? Please reconsider the absurdity of what you are suggesting and read clearly the primary topic guidelines. Without context, no one would ever think that "Persians" means cats or "Swedes" means turnips. In an article about cats, certainly, one could use "Persians" to refer to the cats, but that's only because the topic of cats has been established. Without such context, "Persians" means the people...the primary and original meaning of the word. Please also consider that whether a subject is a primary topic or not is not solely based on usage, but also on historical significance. If a topic 'has substantially greater enduring notability and educational value than any other topic associated with that term", which is undeniably the case here, it is a primary topic.

Yes, redirect Swedes to Swede (disambiguation), it is ambiguous. Swede is a rutabaga. For people, it is ambiguous as to whether is is a citizen of a certain country, or an ethic group. Titles exist separated from context. With no context, introductions specify to the topic precisely. Wikipedia covers tubers and companion animals, not just people. Persians more often refers to the ancient peoples than the modern ethnic group pretending to have singularity. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 05:01, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No way, José! Must go with RG as to the absurdity. Guess you think the whole WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT thing should be rewritten as well? Why not show an example where any primary redirect actually should redirect to a primary topic? or do you think there are no examples? They're all ambiguous terms after all, aren't they?

PRECISE is absurd? Misdirecting a minority doesn’t matter? Sending people jumping straight onto an ambiguous title to the disambiguation page hurts no one. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:03, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
PRECISE is not absurd. Readers are not as a rule misdirected by primary redirects. We are here to help readers, and "Persians" most often refers to the people, ancient and modern, and rarely anything else on the Persian dab page. Same goes for Swedes.

C30H45N5O5 was created by mistake: formula of Ergotamine is C33H35N5O5. I have not found molecule in enWiki with formula C30H45N5O5. I propose to delete it. Gyimhu (talk) 16:36, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Formula of Enfuvirtide changed in article from C202H298N50O64 to C204H301N51O64 so C202H298N50O64 became needless. I have not found other molecule in enWiki with formula C202H298N50O64. I propose to delete it. Gyimhu (talk) 10:26, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

C14H24ClN5O was created for another compound originally in EHNA article. There is no Cl in formula of EHNA: C14H23N5O. I have not found molecule in enWiki with formula C14H24ClN5O. I propose to delete it. Gyimhu (talk) 07:20, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mistaken redirect. Tova also for a surname about people. Not only for a neuropsychological assessment only. PQ77wd (talk) 05:56, 12 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
