Chocobo Hot and Cold → Recurring elements in the Final Fantasy series#Minigames (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Minor minigame, not mentioned here nor in the Final Fantasy IX article where it appears. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 16:56, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nominally this should be retargeted to Minigames of Final Fantasy#Chocobo Hot and Cold which covers this topic. However that target is currently under AFD. Assuming that AFD closes as delete, then I support Delete of this redirect. Alsee (talk) 22:06, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Follow AFD result. It's not mentioned in the game article, and it's not strongly tied to the game as an particular phrase like Cow Level or IDKFA. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:28, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - AFD closed as redirect to the same target as this one, and target page doesn't appear to mention minigames at all. –Sonicwave ^talk 18:19, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Grenade (Final Fantasy X Monster) → Recurring elements in the Final Fantasy series#Monsters (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Minor creature, not mentioned here nor in Final Fantasy X. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 16:48, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Special, copyright issue: Prior to being a redirect, it was an article that was then redirected to another article. This edit has an edit summary (redirect there to preserve GFDL). Normally that would be a Speedy Keep for copyright reasons. However after close investigation I can find no evidence that any content from this page was actually copied into the history of any other page. That GDFL note was left 12 years ago, and the editor who left the note is still active! Ping Fish and karate to take a look and comment whether there is any need to retain this page history. If Fish and karate indicates any need for a keep then my !vote should also be be treated as a Keep, otherwise Delete. Alsee (talk) 23:19, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- It can go, the content that was originally copied over looks to be long gone. Fish+Karate 10:51, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Minor enemy of the original FF, not mentioned here or the game's page. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 16:42, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not mentioned at the target, and I can find no alternate redirect targets. Alsee (talk) 23:28, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Chindagui → Recurring elements in the Final Fantasy series (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Appears like patent nonsense, could not find it in a search. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 16:41, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I can find no indication that "Chindagui" is a real term for anything. Added by an IP with no meaningful history. Likely a nonsense or hyper-local term. Alsee (talk) 23:45, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 04:09, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

T:dyk/q → Template:Did you know/Queue (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Copy of existing redirect at T:DYK/Q; no pages link explicitly to this capitalisation. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 15:22, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as it allows people to access the target page via case-sensitive means even if they use lowercase. It's been used 52 times so far this year, and was used 60 times last year and 77 times in 2017 so it's clearly being used. Thryduulf (talk) 21:16, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I know, the Wikipedia search box isn't case-sensitive if there's an existing page with the same spelling but a different capitalisation: for example, typing "t:itn" will redirect you to Template:In the news, even though there isn't a redirect with that exact capitalisation on Wikipedia. Therefore, I don't see the need to maintain a separate redirect when the existing capitalised one will do the same trick anyway. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 01:21, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Thryduulf. Reasonable convenience redirect. Alsee (talk) 23:54, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep more convenient than the full uppercase form since people usually don't have Caps Lock on when using search. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 03:50, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. — JJMC89 (T·C) 01:38, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Flow symbol → Tilde (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Created by the author of Poland's flow, discussed below, and appears to be a hoax. Uses of the term "flow symbol" outside Wikipedia include various flowchart elements, arrows for use in hydrology charts, and the like; I found no evidence that the tilde is named or used this way. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 15:13, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. –Sonicwave ^talk 19:52, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Appears to be a nonsense contribution by a highschool student with other dubious edits. Alsee (talk) 00:01, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak retarget to Flowchart which is what comes up in searches for flow symbols. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:36, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Locally Weighted Learning → Local regression (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not mentioned at target, and has incorrect capitalisation. The correct lowercase locally weighted learning is a redlink in Christopher G. Atkeson but not mentioned anywhere either. Widefox; talk 15:05, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as not mentioned for now, unless someone wants to add a section about applying this to machine learning. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 06:09, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Clock Spider → Huntsman spider (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Clock spider → Cultural depictions of spiders#Modern myths and urban legends (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

The "Clock spider" images are not discussed in either article, so unless there is a better target both of these redirects should be deleted. If they are not, they should both point to the same target. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 15:03, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete It's an obscure meme about a huntsman spider that's the size of a wall clock. --Lenticel ^(talk) 06:01, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as neologism that would need some more multiple reliable sources (not knowyourmeme) to be added to the other redirects. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:26, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't get it. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 10:09, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:G1; looks like nonsense to me, Google search doesn't turn up anything meaningful. PC78 (talk) 13:41, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Based on the redirect creator's other edits, this seems to be a hoax. 50.248.234.77 (talk) 15:18, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Shiva and Ifrit → Recurring elements in the Final Fantasy series#Summoning Magic (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

These two are real mythological figures, needless to say this redirect can result in quite the WP:SURPRISE. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 09:54, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, too vague. Also per WP:XY. —Xezbeth (talk) 15:47, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The redirect was apparently intended to refer to a particular story from Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales. However we don't appear to have any coverage on it, and the redirect is likely to just result in confusion. Alsee (talk) 00:08, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible redirect created as fan speculation a long time ago. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 09:51, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, no mention of symbolism in the target article. Also per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Symbolism of Final Fantasy VIII. —Xezbeth (talk) 15:48, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This page was originally created as unsourced fancruft original research speculation and then redirected to a section of unsourced fancruft original research speculation in the Final Fantasy VIII article. That target section has thankfully been deleted, and the redirect should join it. Alsee (talk) 00:20, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Too generic of a gaming term to redirect to any one game. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 09:46, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, too vague and not covered in the target article anyway. —Xezbeth (talk) 15:46, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Xezbeth. Alsee (talk) 00:21, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can lead to a WP:SURPRISE result, and possibly be confused with the mythological Vajra or other weapons made out of diamond. Not mentioned in the article. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 04:43, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not a stylization mentioned in the article or in images. Google search returns no relevant results. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 00:44, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I am unable to confirm that ЯBS has ever been used for this purpose, the redirect was created by a blocked massive-sockmaster, and the redirect has so few pageviews as to indicate likely zero actual usage to refer to the target article. Alsee (talk) 00:37, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
