• Marina Rodina → Marina Orlova (Internet celebrity) ( links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ delete ] 

There appears to be no consensus at Talk:Marina Orlova (Internet celebrity) that reliable sourcing for the name Marina Rodina exists. Target page is a BLP. Prodego ^talk 21:39, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply

• Delete per nom. A redirect suggesting that a person is known by an alternate name is as much a BLP violation as a statement to that effect in the article itself. bd2412 T 22:00, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. The talk page discussion in 2010 cast doubts on the sources used, which is why "Marina Rodina" isn't mentioned at all in the article. It follows then that a redirect isn't appropriate. — Xezbeth ( talk) 22:17, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply
• Speedy keep the subject publically published this alias themselves in 2007 [1] [2]. And in 2012, publically said it was their real name [3] [4]. These are all perfectly valid self-published sources. Rodina also owns the Hotforwords company [5]. Google image searching both names also clearly brings up the same individual from multiple websites. As neither the nominator or speedy deleting admin above have attempted to find any sources, I suspect this to be a bad faith nomination.-- Sinistrial ( talk) 22:32, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply

  Hey, if consensus is that these are reliable sources then I am all for keeping the redirect. The 2010 discussion did not support the youtube info as a reliable source. Maybe that was wrong. But if there are reliable sources that this is her name, then you should first get consensus for it on Talk:Marina Orlova (Internet celebrity) and include it in the article. After that, create the redirect. Prodego ^talk 22:57, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply

  • I would contend that there is a substantial difference between a possible middle name and an entirely different last name. bd2412 T 01:54, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
• Keep per Sinistrial. This seems like BLP zealotry, and a misunderstanding of RS to boot. Sources need to be reliable for the statement being made, and a self-published source is fine for routine claims about one's self. Whether the subject was claiming that Marina Rodina was her real name or an alias, it's a likely enough search term that couldn't really point anywhere else. In conclusion, she probably wasn't lying about Rodina being her name at the time, and even if she were, that's not our problem. -- BDD ( talk) 18:17, 26 December 2013 (UTC) reply

• T:MI → Template:Multiple image ( links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ delete ] 
• Template:MI → Template:Multiple issues ( links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ delete ] 

Something needs to be sorted out with these two redirects as they point to different locations which could be confusing. WOSlinker ( talk) 11:24, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply

• Keep both as they are. {{ MI}} is apparently automatically replaced by {{ Multiple issues}} when encountered by AutoWikiBrowser so it is not possible to determine from "what links here" what its current usage is, but the fact that it is on that list suggests that it is not infrequently encountered and that the replacement is (almost) always correct. T:MI on the other hand is not so treated and so it is easy to look at current uses, from that it appears that it is used only in discussions (ranging several years) and it is always used to refer to template:Multiple image. In other words, although there is the potential for confusion between T:MI and {{ MI}} it appears that in practice this does not happen. The two templates have very different uses so any wrong use will be very easy to spot and correct, changing the target of one of them however will produce confusion.

• Strong don't keep as they are T:X and Templeate:X should almost never lead to different locations. That would get way too confusing. T:X should lead to the same location as {{tl|X}}, much easier to remember shortcuts that way. Emmette Hernandez Coleman ( talk) 01:15, 16 December 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Except all the evidence is that there is no confusion in practice. Thryduulf ( talk) 02:22, 16 December 2013 (UTC) reply

How do you know that, Thryd? - DePiep ( talk) 01:05, 22 December 2013 (UTC) reply

Because there are no transclusions of T:MI, and none of the links to either page are intended for the other one based on the surrounding context. Thryduulf ( talk) 12:38, 24 December 2013 (UTC) reply

• Delete the pseudo one. Say after me: T: is for Template space, so a page T:X is defined to be the same page as Template:X.

On a secondary level one could argue that changing the T:-redirect would solve it, but the current Redirection shows proves that there is absolutely no need for that pagename with corrected redirect. Also a mainspace rot. - DePiep ( talk) 11:22, 23 December 2013 (UTC) reply

I'd say the opposite. A user entering "T:MI" expects to end up at " Template:MI", and expects rightly so, because it is about Template space. And a user wanting to go to Template:MI may expect to be able to use T:MI.

Also, one cannot state there is no confusion because you don't know how many editors end up at the wrong MI page. - DePiep ( talk) 13:30, 24 December 2013 (UTC) reply

"T:" is a Pseudo-namespace (see the "major exception" of D6). Emmette Hernandez Coleman ( talk) 01:20, 16 December 2013 (UTC) reply

Yes, but deletion of T:WPTECH is the best option here. Considering there is confusion as they currently redirect to different places AND WikiProject Technology should take priority AND this one is cross-namepsace (even if it is one of the least harmful types of cross-namespace redirects), retargeting would not be sensible. I am not saying this should be deleted purely because it's cross-namespace, but it is a factor which should be taken into consideration. 5.70.112.192 ( talk) 23:44, 16 December 2013 (UTC) reply

re EHC: the pseudo namespace T:X then should represent the same as page Template:X. - DePiep ( talk) 06:35, 24 December 2013 (UTC) reply

• Delete or Retarget to Template:WikiProject Technology. Template:WPTECH (WikiProject Technology) was only created in June 2012 by Piotrus, but it is a more natural/intuitive target than Template:WikiProject Georgia Tech, and 'Technology' is the boarder topic of the two.

• Badri (1999 film) → Badri ( links to redirect • history • stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ delete ] 

Points to dab page with no relevant entry. Created in page move2006.Orphan. Pam D 09:19, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply

Delete per nom Lazy Bastard Guy 22:19, 15 December 2013 (UTC) reply

• Keep As G. K. Chesterton once said, don't tear down a fence until you know why it was built in the first place (paraphrasing). The 2000 film was originally created as the 1999 film redirect, then renamed to just Badri, then renamed to 2000 film. So, it's a redirect from page rename, meaning there are probably links on the web left over from when that was the title. And 1999 and 2000 are only one year apart, so there are many reasonable reasons to keep the redirect - maybe it was announced as 1999 but then delayed, maybe the 2001 film was announced for 1999 and the delayed, maybe there is quite a bit of confusion amongst moviegoers in the region as to when exactly it was released. Pointing to the disambiguation page is our reader's best bet for finding the article they are looking for. Ego White Tray ( talk) 03:26, 16 December 2013 (UTC) reply
