Clearly this is not what it means, if you do a Google searc, you'll see it refers to (among other things), a hotel and a mixer (whatever that is).

Delete. Never seen MW used as an abbreviation for Windows.

Delete per
WP:R#DELETE criterion 8: non of uses is established enough to be worth redirection or even disambiguation. —

For anyone who is confused, MW8 is an abreviation for Microsoft Windows 8 which also happens to be the German Wikipedia's title for the OS.

German Wikipedia does not mention "MW8" though; and even if it did, that would not influence the fate of this redirect on English Wikipedia per
WP:FORRED. —

this is the way the place is represented in the ADB, and I created the redirect for an article based on that source. I have no particular love of the representation on the temporal location.

WP:BEFORE should have told the nominator; it's a semi-standard notation in colonial print biographies for European places that have shifted boundaries.

Windows NT 4.0. I've never heard the 9x series called "Windows 4." --NYKevin 02:50, 28 June 2014 (UTC)reply
Keep. Windows NT was never refered to as only “Windows” back then. All Windows 9x versions have version numbers 4 point something, and no others have.

Keep per Ï¿½'s comment. Windows NT and Windows 9x/4.x were quite different beasts despite having a similar GUI. -

From what I can gather from a google search, the name does not refer to the entire state, and the fact the the google sidebar refers to Texas is simply because it mirrors Wikipedia

Retarget to
Pinar del Río Province. The article states that the province was once called as Nuevas Filipinas due to the huge influx of Filipino immigrants.--
