==== Backus → John Backus==== -- There is more than one notable person named "Backus" in Wikipedia. There were only 2 articles linked to this redirect, and direct-linking to the correct article was trivial and not disruptive.

This Crimean Ta is simply a mistake, as you can see in the 1st version of the article. Yahoo, who created the article probably wanted to name it Crimean Tatars, but a mistake occured.

Inherently POV-pushing redirect. Plus it does not make any sense. If there was a Polish imperialism, it was definitely a much wider phenomenon than just a single political project of 1918-1921.

This gives the impression that we have an article on something we don't. It is only linked by one article and two pages listing it as a missing topic. If it is searched for it will likely direct the person to Res Extensa which would be a good start and allow them to explore the concept further without having it redirect them to Descartes... who is not the only person to employ the concept. gren グレン 13:36, 14 April 2006 (UTC) reply

User Kayaakyuz created several redirects on 16 April to a POV article Armenian allegations they had copied from Turkish govt website, currently listed on AfD. The redirects obscure attempts to find the NPOV Wikipedia article. It is possible the title of the established article Armenian Genocide may change, so the redirect will not have a valid target. The names of many of the redirects and articles involve are themselves either insufficiently descriptive or contentious to one of the parties.

Also, there is no logical way that someone using an accepted abbreviation for Dungeons and Dragons is going to type "DnD" with an apostrophe both after the first D and before the second, so this redirect also makes no sense.

This gives the impression that we have an article on something we don't. It is only linked by one article and two pages listing it as a missing topic.
