April 15

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 15, 2022.

More redirects indicating "®" status

Per the outcome of Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 April 2#Redirects indicating "®" status, and the community consensus expressed there regarding the application of Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks, we should not have redirects purporting to represent the trademark registration status of words.

El Assico

This link should be deleted because it promotes an obscure SB Nation article that coined the term, and fits Wikipedia's criteria for deletion under reasons three (the link is abusive), four (it's spam), and most significantly, reason eleven (which appears to be lacking from Wikipedia's list, but clearly is missing): the link is just dumb. It's not relevant to either sports team. No one in popular media uses the term 'El Assico', except the SB Nation author and a handful of obscure social media commenters with grudges against Iowa or Iowa State. While using 'El Assico' to refer to the Iowa/Iowa State game may have been funny and amusing for a small segment of frat bros five years ago, it's clearly been exhausted; and, it's odd that Wikipedia continues to enable the outdated link. 71.237.70.164 (talk) 02:55, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Malort

This should be retargeted to Jeppson's Malört. While this is to some extent a genericiziation, Malort does generally refer to the specific Jeppson's Malört and not a generic Bäsk liquor. I think that we could add a redirect hatnote to Jeppson's Malört to compensate for the retarget. TartarTorte 01:18, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
