May 22

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on May 22, 2020.

Doctor Roo

Not a plausible misnomer. Google search results bring up nothing about Dr. Who, just stuff about a non-notable startup, a non-notable video game character and a non-notable brewery. Suggest deleting. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 22:53, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Not remotely plausible. P-K3 (talk) 23:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. userdude 01:08, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete with the possible exception of Scooby Doo I can’t see anyone either spelling or pronouncing the name like that.--69.157.254.64 (talk) 06:59, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Away team (Star Trek term)

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

AfD created this redirect "to enable further discussion about [a merge with the target]." So far as I can tell, such discussion has not occurred over the course of the past year or so, and as the AfD closer acknowledged, "If no consensus appears to merge content from history the redirect may in time be deleted." I think a year qualifies as "in time." So, for actual rationale, this is a hyper-specific and implausible search term, which is not discussed at its target. I previously objected to deleting this redirect on the basis that the AfD had just closed, but it's now been a year and that objection no longer applies. NYKevin 22:32, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Better late than never... -- Tavix (talk) 23:10, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Estimate of the Situation

I don't think we should assume that someone who searches for "Estimate of the Situation" on Wikipedia is looking for an article about ufology. —S Marshall T/C 22:02, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pew pew pew

Not mentioned at the target, and a quick search indicates no obvious association with them either. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 20:27, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Windoze XPee

Not mentioned in target article, XPee has been deleted in the past Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2014_July_24#XPee, and creator has been indeffed. Hog Farm (talk) 19:57, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - While the term exists, we don't need redirects for every lame joke someone posted on a forum in 2006. The pageview stats are highly unimpressive, so it won't be missed. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 22:20, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

$teve Ba££mer

See Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2020_March_21#Wikkkipedia, not mentioned in target article as an example. For what it's worth, the creator has been indeffed. Hog Farm (talk) 19:57, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Pageview stats are rather underwhelming. Seems like an implausible search query to me, as it can't even be typed on an American keyboard. Also, Ballmer is not especially British. Finally, if the creator made this redirect in violation of an existing block or ban (by sockpuppetry etc.), then it can be G5'd, but from the wording of the nomination, I assume that is not the case. --NYKevin 22:39, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It was probably mentioned in the target at some point, but has since been removed for lacking evidence of usage or a source discussing it, as many entries in Satiric misspelling#Currency signs have been. userdude 00:29, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Implausible search term. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 01:00, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Custom-made device

No mention at the target, the search term seems a little too vague to be useful. I would suggest deletion unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:42, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete It's worth noting that most Google search results for "custom-made device" are related to medical devices [1]; this term seems to have a specific meaning in that context. However, it's not mentioned at the target, and I would think that most people searching for this phrase aren't aware of that specific meaning, so IMO it's too vague and should be deleted. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 22:40, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mud-pepper

Does not appear to be an alternative name for the target in English--searching for "mud-pepper" online just returned results about vintage pepper shakers on Etsy. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:27, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom; I don't see what this has to do with the target. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 21:47, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Italpinas Euroasian Design and Eco-Development Corporatio

Left over from a 2014 move to its correctly spelled cousin Italpinas Euroasian Design and Eco-Development Corporation (which is worth keeping as an {{R from former name}}), I'm not sure how useful this redirect is now...also it seems to have gotten much less pageviews than the aforementioned former name redirect since July 2015. Regards, SONIC678 15:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom as an error. In the 6 years since it was created, I'm sure that the links have been cleaned up. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 16:25, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    @Prahlad balaji: by keeping this redirect, a small number of readers are unambiguously helped. By deleting this redirect, those readers are annoyed. The best thing for the readers is to keep this redirect. — J947 [cont] 22:25, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    @J947: The only pages that link to the redirect are a few user talkpages and RfD. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 22:27, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Readers search this up, they aren't linked to it. — J947 [cont] 23:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong meh - It could be {{Rcat shell|{{R from typo}}{{R from former name}}}}, but I find it hard to care much about the outcome here, because none of the arguments on either side of WP:RHARMFUL seem relevant here, and it has low views. --NYKevin 22:50, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, fair enough – many of these sort of redirects have been nominated for very little to no reason. — J947 [cont] 23:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rocket launch site

The term "rocket launch site" is summarized on spaceport, not on the target article. Better retargeting it to spaceport. Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 14:55, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Correct horse battery staple

Only content about "correct horse battery staple" on Wikipedia is the name of a reference at the Random password generator article. Likely a one-time joke from xkcd. Hog Farm (talk) 15:17, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. It's a rather famous xkcd webcomic, but we have no information on it; so there is no good target. I would change my !vote to keep if someone dug through the very many bloggy references discussing whether it is or is not a strong password which turn up in a search, and added relevant info to xkcd with an RS or two. Narky Blert (talk) 19:34, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Academic and IT articles have referenced the phrase which is well-known in computer science and cryptography. Here are some examples:
    • Carnegie Mellon University: [2]
    • Information Sciences Institute: [3]
    • New York Post: [4]
    • University of Connecticut: [5]

  • Refine and tag {{R with possibilities}}. You could (perhaps) write a whole article about password complexity and the relative merits of passphrases vs. other means of adding entropy, but a self-published webcomic is obviously not a reliable source for doing so. In the meantime, this target is Good Enough. --NYKevin 22:53, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Refine and tag, per NYKevin. Certainly should not be deleted (per Shawnc and my own experience of having seen the term before knowing its association with xkcd). userdude 00:40, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Prestige class

Not specific to D&D, as can be seen from the incoming links. Note that the previous target has just been deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of prestige classes. Prestige class is linked from e.g. Wizardry, Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Wizards of the Coast), and A Game of Thrones (role-playing game), which are all sent to a completely unrelated page through this link. This is a generic term and shouldn't link to one specific use of it only. Fram (talk) 07:19, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disambiguate per BOZ at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2020 May 11#List of prestige classes. --Pandakekok9 (talk) 09:52, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revert move and restore redirect. The Star Wars / GoT uses are d20 System games based off of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition. They probably shouldn't link to it at all, but if they do, it's still covering the same fundamental topic. The Wizardry claim that it was doing something similar to prestige classes is wholly unreferenced and original research, and there's no earthly way prestige-classes in Wizardry would ever be appropriate for an article. It's just some editor who thought Wizardy's system was close to 3rd edition D&D, which makes the original link to the D&D meaning accurate anyway - it's claiming that Wizardry was doing something like what D&D prestige classes did. SnowFire (talk) 01:29, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambiguate per Pandakekok9. Drafted below the redirect. The Dungeons & Dragons concept doesn't appear to be WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT either by usage in reliable sources (e.g. Google News hits, which are mostly about airlines & trains whose business/first class is called "prestige class") or long-term significance. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 11:13, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • None of the offered suggestions are relevant disambig page mentions. We don't have first class or First class travel contain a list of every company that offers something called "First class"; we don't need a mention that Korean Air offers something similar called "prestige class" either. Same with a random term used by a short-lived event in Renault Sport Trophy, either. The D&D meaning (before it was moved) is the proper link here that can actually have a referenced section talking about the concept. SnowFire (talk) 17:32, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Westdeutsche Beobachter

deletion, Westdeutsche Beobachter was a Nazi Newspaper not a single Person CommanderWaterford (talk) 11:31, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, the redirect is misspelled, the name of the newspaper was WestdeutscheR Beobachter. Robert Ley was the editor of the newspaper, but I don't think that is enough to redirect the correct title to him. ~ GB fan 12:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete to encourage article creation under the correct name; de:Westdeutscher Beobachter is a sizable article. Narky Blert (talk) 15:15, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

にっぽん

Not sure this is a real name of Japan in Japanese as the normal one is日本 and cannot see any websites with this name 🌸 1.Ayana 🌸 (talk) 10:31, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment this is "Nippon" spelled in hiragana. See wikt: にっぽん. Retargeting to Names of Japan (where this exact spelling is mentioned) may help to provide more context to readers, but arguably it should also remain consistent with Nippon (which also points to Japan). I'm neutral between keeping and retargeting; clearly shouldn't be deleted per WP:FORRED. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 10:37, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per IP as the most useful target for an English-speaker. Clearly passes WP:RFFL. Narky Blert (talk) 11:08, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ザファーヒルズ

Japanese name of a American City 🌸 1.Ayana 🌸 (talk) 10:26, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:RFFL; no apparent connection between the city and Japan. ja:ザファーヒルズ doesn't exist. Narky Blert (talk) 11:10, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete seriously of no use. Non-notable city it's being redirected to. I don't think we'd even entertain redirections to most major cities from every possible world language, but for an obscure one definitely not. Canterbury Tail talk 11:16, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Does it help that there are 2 videos on Niconico that reference Zephyrhills? https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm33141811 and https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm32925971 TheDiaperPinez37 (talk) 14:02, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
On a site with 17.5 million videos? Not really. Canterbury Tail talk 15:20, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I searched it up on Google, found the webpage, but it gave error 1009 (page banned from view in my area). I don't know who is allowed to see it; and as far as the term "Betviton" goes, that website is the only thing I could find that even remotely pertains to a Sportradar-like business, and even then, I only knew that from the preview. If we can't find reliable sources for "Betviton", there's no point in maintaining this redirect. Delete if there are no sources. --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 14:27, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I found their website. The company is Turkish. In case it isn't accessible everywhere, the English version of their main page reads: "What is Syx? Turnkey Full set up of all Online games (sports betting, Casino, Live casino, virtual sports, poker, bingo, okey, Hundred slots).

I also found this page on tr:Şikayetvar, a website on which customers can upload complaints. tr:Betviton seems never to have existed. They don't seem to have anything to do with Sportradar; except, conceivably, as a client. Narky Blert (talk) 10:52, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh hi mark

A version of a quote from a movie with an uncapitalized name and missing punctuation serves little use. If someone is searching for the quote, the properly capitalized and punctuated version will show up Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 00:10, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Agree that "Mark" should be capitalized, but if we think we should keep Oh hi, Mark, I think it would make sense to also have Oh hi Mark, as people searching for this will likely leave out the comma. —Will(B) 23:10, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as {{R from other capitalisation|of=the redirect {{-r|Oh hi Mark}}}}. Not all search functions will show the properly capitalized and punctuated version; for example the Google Chrome "Press tab to search" function will show correctly capitalized and punctuated article titles, but not correctly capitalized and punctuated redirect titles. userdude 01:05, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Governmental impact on science during World Waar II

A leftover from a move back in March 2016, this redirect doesn't seem to have anything linked to it except its own talk page, and it got about 31 pageviews since July 2015 (possibly because of the questionably plausible misspelling of "war?"). Regards, SONIC678 04:40, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Equatorial, tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests

Delete; this article has lots of useful redirects (tropical moist forests, subtropical moist forests, etc.), from alternative phrasings or subsets of forests that belong in the larger set, but this redirect isn't useful since it's quite wordy, and including both 'equatorial' and 'tropical' adds redundancy without clarify anything. It also has no links. Tom Radulovich (talk) 06:33, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Woodcutting

Is this more likely to refer to logging or woodcut? Paul_012 (talk) 01:45, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would say redirect to "Woodcut" as logging is used for timber harvesting for lumber and typically not for cutting timber for fuel use. But then "woodcutting" could simply mean "harvesting timber for fuel". Vsmith (talk) 02:58, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanos did nothing wrong

As this specifically refers to the MCU character, it should redirect to Thanos (Marvel Cinematic Universe). O.N.R. (talk) 04:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Edwards Military Institute "

Delete per WP:COSTLY; no basis to think that enclosing these names/terms/initialisms within quotation marks provides any value to users or searchers, especially in the final case since it does not target PBJ. A number of them "feature" extraneous spaces or bad capitalization also. UnitedStatesian (talk) 02:13, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Racism in Arab Palestine

Delete. What in the world is Arab Palestine? The only history is reverted copy-paste moves in the middle of an AfD discussion. Place Clichy (talk) 17:44, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep the OP didn't make any policy-based reason for deleting this redirect and I can find lots of instances where "Arab Palestine"[6] is used and even the whole phrase [7]. Please read WP:RFD#DELETE.-SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 18:18, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The policy-based reason is that these redirects were created as disruptive edits in the midst of a heated deletion discussion on a hot topic. I thought that was clear enough in my rationale, many apologies if it was not. I still do not see a reason why keeping them would be useful, as there is little ambiguity or possible confusion about which instance of Palestine the current article is about, and they do not look like phrases that would often be used in search. As a side note, the link given talks about Zionist racism in Arab Palestine, which is quite the opposite of what is discussed in the target article, which is mostly focussed on purported racism by Arab Palestinians towards Israelis.

Sitcom movies

Not equivalent, the target list includes films that are based on shows other than sitcoms, and doesn't include any non-British examples. I wasn't able to find a more relevant list elswhere, so I would suggest deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 18:02, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - per nom, &c. The two are not equivalent and one searching for one is unlikely to be looking for the other. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 19:21, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I created it because searching for that term didn't turn up anything relevant. There was a particular fondness for films based on British sitcom movies in the 1970s - possibly this article isn't the right redirect target, but there may be scope for a British films based on sitcoms article?

  • Keep I think this is a useful redirect — there was a run of British movies in the 1970s based on sitcoms and this is what I would have typed if I’d wanted to find a list of them. It could be adjusted to point just to the Comedy section of the list. P-K3 (talk) 02:24, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target, and appears to be a name actually in use for at least one other beach [8]. Delete unless evidence of usage can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:03, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - quick google search shows a real beach named that, as well as other beaches with circular rocks given this nickname. Ultimately don't see evidence that this is an official or common nickname for the Moeraki Boulders, or at least not that it is the primary reference of the term. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 19:14, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nurg, in the discussion above, it states that "other beaches with circular rocks given this nickname." --Stay safe, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 16:22, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There are no Wikipedia articles that mention "Cannonball Beach". Nurg (talk) 22:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Patrick's Point State Park is the location of the beach in California, but it is not mentioned there currently. We still do not have evidence that Moeraki Boulders is known as "Cannonball Beach". Cannonball concretion is the name for the phenomenon, and that section gives other locations where this occurs. Some are beaches, some are not. We can only get to a disambiguation if we can source multiple beaches with the name (not just beaches that happen to have cannonball concretions) and include the name in the article. We are not yet there. -- Tavix (talk) 16:40, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
