Silk (Corn Stalk Part)

[edit]

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 delete. signed, Rosguill talk 17:38, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is incorrect. The silk of corn is not part of the stalk itself, it is rather part of the ear of corn itself. There is no part of the corn stalk specifically that is known as silk. Page creator evidently was not in FFA as a youth. Hog Farm Bacon 01:33, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Tuner (radio)#AM/FM. signed, Rosguill talk 17:37, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect seems to have a WP:XY issue, considering that FM radio redirects to FM broadcasting, and AM radio redirects to AM broadcasting. Steel1943 (talk) 06:46, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Tuner (radio)#AM/FM. This one's a little trickier since the capitalization and nomenclature is atrocious! I also wouldn't be totally opposed to deletion. This shouldn't have XY problems because all three together (AM, FM, and radio—usually as an "AM/FM radio") is typically referring to hardware devices that are capable of receiving in either frequency modulation or amplitude modulation. That's probably why it was targetting Radio, but that article itself isn't about hardware alone, but the whole technology of radio. This should really be at AM/FM radio, but is it worth a move? Meh... -2pou (talk) 20:05, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, noting the possibility of creation of AM/FM radio. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:40, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is a primary topic named Full stop. However, I have no clue why "Full Stop" redirects to its disambiguation page. Seventyfiveyears at 21:11, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"The Atlantic hurricane season" redirects

[edit]

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 delete. I honestly think these are perfectly plausible and harmless, but there's a consensus to delete and they don't appear to have seen much use at all, so it would be pointlessly costly to belabor the point. signed, Rosguill talk 20:39, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I do not understand why those pages redirect to its own hurricane season. We don't have the redirect The Atlantic hurricane season, (i.e. The 2019 Atlantic hurricane season, The 2004 Atlantic hurricane season, The 1992 Atlantic hurricane season, etc) these are the only mentions of "The Atlantic hurricane season" in the English Wikipedia.

The result of the discussion was delete. Plausible but ambiguous misspellings are typically deleted. King of ♥ 21:20, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect is very implausible and misleading. Seventyfiveyears at 15:20, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The redirect and its target actually look identical at first glance, I had to look twice to see the difference, so therefore not misleading. It also has received a decent amount of pageviews for the past five years or so. CycloneYoris talk! 20:15, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:XY as a misnomer or typo for multiple things (e.g. Kong Hon) but not the correct name of anything in Wikipedia. The pageview statistics only tell us that something pointed to this in error (maybe an external link, given that there's a 100-hit spike on one day and just one person on most others); they don't tell us that the readers who followed the link actually ended up where they wanted to. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 02:26, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • That proves nothing besides that when you don't put quotes around your search terms, Wikipedia's search engine returns page matching your search terms in either order instead of trying to guess if you misspelled something. Dropping one letter from an unfamiliar name is obviously a plausible error. In the absence of any real evidence about whether that's more or less likely than swapping two distant letters in a name that people are much more likely to have heard before, the XY problem remains. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 01:08, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ham steak

[edit]

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 retarget to Steak#Pork steak. Closing this discussion since they both seem clear and specific. (non-admin closure) Seventyfiveyears (talk) 20:21, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:XY. Pictured twice with captions, but not specifically identified in the target article's context. The redirect could equally refer to the subject at Ham. Steel1943 (talk) 22:21, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep and refine to Steak#Pork steak, which provides access to the pictures. My understanding is that the leg cuts referred to in that section would indeed be ham steaks. This is a bit confusion since all ham is pork but not all pork is ham. So ham steak is not pork steak, but it is a steak made of pork. A standalone article could better explain this, but I don't really see the case for WP:REDLINK deletion here. Alternatively, explanatory text could be added at the section. --BDD (talk) 15:57, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per BDD. In addition, to decouple the incoming links from the sub-topic organization in the article, we could refine the link to point to Steak#Ham steak and add an {{anchor|Ham steak}} at the "Pork steak" section header to semantically distinguish between the two types. This way, the anchor could be moved to a new section without having to update the redirect whenever the article gets further developed and someone writes something specifically about "Ham steak" in the future. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 08:39, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Retarget to Deputy head teacher per all. Seventyfiveyears at 19:38, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as ambiguous per Shhhnotsoloud. MB 01:05, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget to Deputy head teacher. This is another example of a term that is theoretically ambiguous but when you actually do the research it's clear that in practice it actually isn't. A google search for the exact phrase reveals that literally 100% of the results on the first six pages are for assistant head teachers, as are all the results on the 8th page. On the 7th page one result was for an assistant head of PE at a school, all the other results on the page were for assistant head teachers. The usage to mean deputy head teacher is therefore so overwhelmingly primary that any action other than retargetting there would is unsupportable by any actual evidence.

Was a redirect to Librarians' Information Literacy Annual Conference, which was taken to AfD and retargeted to Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals where it is not mentioned now and does not appear to have been mentioned even at or after the time of that AfD.

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Relisting again after removing the unreferenced term from the target page. (as suggested by Rosguill) The reason for deletion stands same as the previous nomination.

The target page(Muhibullah Allahabadi) had no reference about the alternate name(that is the redirect -QutubeAllahabad), until it was added by the page creator of QutubeAllahabad here, without any suitable reference. I have removed the dubious mention from the target page and left a message on the talk page. The page creator lists here a website, but its a user-generated website which does not seems to be reliable and independent to be accepted as a ref. Zoodino (talk) 07:19, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Stands for "Notability BASIC CRITeria" The problem is, literally tens (hundreds?) of WikiProjects have "Notability BASIC CRITeria", and so it makes no sense for this redirect to point to a particular WikiProject subpage, as opposed to another WikiProject's subpage.
