Misleading. Roister means enjoy oneself or celebrate in a noisy or boisterous way. Riot means 1. a wild or turbulent disturbance created by a large number of people. 2. Law A violent disturbance of the public peace by three or more persons assembled... Roist is not really a word. I thought boisterous but no such article. Delete to encourage article creation, with maybe the less complex ones pointed at party. Another from Neelix Legacypac ( talk) 23:46, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • retarget ALL to Party; though I'd be happy to see Roisterously deleted, because the only things I can find are (proper) dictionary defintions; I'm not sure we should have " Roisterer(s)" when we don't have partygoer (whether spaced, hyphenated or pluralised). What we shouldn't do is take them to different targets, that's just confusing.
Amazingly we don't have roisterousness. As usual I've rcatted them, without prejudice, as R from verb etc. Si Trew ( talk) 04:20, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Very vague. The target has these meanings, but you can carry over a plate, carry over a motion etc. Same for the other terms which do not apply only or even especially to this church office. Legacypac ( talk) 23:02, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete all as WP:RFD#D2 confusing. The target does not have these meanings, since it's a noun (rightly) and not a verb (wrongly); there's no way that "a prelate" is "a set above". All kinds of WP:TITLE problems here which apparently don't apply to redirects, but in the meantime I'll mark them as {{ R from verb}}. Si Trew ( talk) 04:06, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Comment. I think these have just been scraped from the etymology in the lede, which often gives incongrous redirects since several things can share the same etymology. F'rexample, we could retarget To prefer to preference; but why do so, when patently we have survived without that until now? Si Trew ( talk) 04:09, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was retarget to Greek diacritics. ( non-admin closure) sst✈ (discuss) 08:20, 26 November 2015 (UTC) reply

This is a transcription of the Greek word for the diaeresis (διαλυτικά, dialytika) and the Greek word for the accent (τόνος, tonos). I cannot see the point of having these two words together in a page's title but, if they are to be kept, it would make a little more sense if they redirected to Greek diacritics.

"Antoneta" is a typo, her first name is Antoaneta, as her FIDE page ( http://ratings.fide.com/card.phtml?event=2902257) and all the chess websites and magazines report. Sophia91 ( talk) 19:26, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • "Échecs : Marie Sebag éliminée par Antoneta Stefanova". chess-and-strategy.com (in French). 23 November 2012. Retrieved 20 November 2015.
  • "Bulgaria's Stefanova Grabs Women World Rapid Chess Title". noinvite.com. Sofia, Bulgaria. Sofia News Agency. 4 June 1202. Retrieved 20 November 2015.
The second is perhaps more relevant (to RfD) in that it is a Bulgarian publication making this transliteration. Tag as {{ R from transliteration}}. Si Trew ( talk) 13:07, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • It's a misspelling, not a valid alternative transliteration. You'll find your Bulgarian source correctly spells it "Antoaneta" twice in that article; the one appearance of "Antoneta" is just a typo. It does demonstrate it's a plausible typo and a likely search term, though. Sideways713 ( talk) 13:26, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Also the French article correctly spells "Antoaneta", the typo is only in the title. I follow almost everyday the leading chess news websites, which are ChessBase, Chessdom, Chess.com, chess24, and none of them ever spelled "Antoneta". In Wikipedia there were only two articles that wrongly spelled "Antoneta" and I fixed the typo in both articles, so now there are no wiki articles with "Antoneta Stefanova", there is no reason to keep this misspelled name. In addition, all the online chess games databases spell her name as "Antoaneta Stefanova". Sophia91 ( talk) 15:30, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep the plurals as alternative terms linking to the article which shows them (give or take e/ae/etc) as such. On the adjectives ... Neutral. Adjectives are a problem, as no reasonable reader would expet to find an encyclopedia article, as opposed to a dictionary entry for an adjective. Deletion probably best for them.

Print making in Japan

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was no consensus. This is a bit complicated. It seems indisputably true that woodblock printing does not represent the entirety of Japanese printing, but also that it's Japan's best known technique in that field. I think it's inevitable that some of these will disappoint or mislead readers, but perhaps more will be served by them. An optimal outcome would be for someone to write an article on printmaking in Japan in its entirety. -- BDD ( talk) 16:37, 2 December 2015 (UTC) reply

Too vague. Lots of things get printed in Japan without wood blocks Legacypac ( talk) 15:17, 18 November 2015 (UTC) reply

In Japan, until after about 1870, printmaking was just woodblock printing, and it is only Japanese woodblock prints that are famous in the West - ukiyo-e, The Great Wave off Kanagawa etc. Johnbod ( talk) 07:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep with a possible "{{ Redirect with possibilities}} if it can be shown that there is material for an article on alternative techniques (in Japan). All the best: Rich  Farmbrough, 21:34, 19 November 2015 (UTC). reply
  • Comment The editor that challanged this said I don't know the difference between printing and printmaking which is incorrect. There are all kinds of printmaking and none of them are particularly specific to Japan. If there is something special in Japan it can have an article, but none of these terms would be the title. I also encourage people to look at all the redirects pointed at the target - there are lots - these being the most vague. Legacypac ( talk) 22:07, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply
I was just going by what you said. It is certainly untrue that "none of them are particularly specific to Japan" - this one is. Johnbod ( talk) 07:53, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Actually, without looking at them all, I see only a couple of those using other techniques in Category:Japanese printmakers. We have many articles on individual Japanese prints and series, but all woodblock as far as I can see. Art of Japan currently has nothing on any other techniques (I'm not saying that's appropriate, but it is the current position). 1850 (for example) is not "ancient". Johnbod ( talk) 07:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Nearly every artist in that category also works/worked in oils, watercolors, etc. Among the modern professionals, some have no connection to woodblock at all. Museums may celebrate this ancient antique form most often, but no matter how well known it is, contemporary art trends matter too. It seems parochial, or at least weirdly quaint, to redirect inquiries on Japanese printmaking to this single traditional style, SteveStrummer ( talk) 15:48, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
But we have a vast amount on that, and nothing outside bios on other techniques in Japan. So there is really nowhere else to send them, but (see below) they are rather commonly used. How does deleting them help? The only Japanese printmaker in other techniques at all well known in the West is Tsuguharu Foujita who spent decades in France. "Nearly every artist in that category also works/worked in oils, watercolors, etc." is not true - most are "antique" (as you put it) woodblock guys, with 129 in the relevant subcats, several repeated in the main category. Johnbod ( talk) 16:06, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Inquiries made into basic printmaking can quickly and easily yield information on the Japanese scene. Deleting these canned redirects would help by preventing a false equation between traditional woodcut styles and the wider, more nuanced business of modern printmaking. SteveStrummer ( talk) 17:05, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
There is nothing at printmaking on other Japanese work. Frankly, as the hits on modern printmakers' bios show, the vast majority of our readers are interested in the historic, famous, woodblock tradition. Redirects are there to help the reader, not promote our own agendas. Johnbod ( talk) 17:55, 23 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Agendas? Really? That's where you think your opposition comes from... on "Printmaking in Japan"?? SteveStrummer ( talk) 01:46, 24 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. At Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2015_November_20#Japanese_wood-block_printings, the next day's listing, I've listed some others to the same target (those ending in "printings"). Si Trew ( talk) 05:29, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all Woodblock prints are the big, famous Japanese technique in printmaking, exclusively the one used by Hokusai and other famous masters, though of course in the last 150 years other techniques have come in from the West. As we have no general article on Japanese printmaking, this is the best destination. At the same time, the average person is unlikely to know to start their search term with "Woodblock printing", though this is technically correct. The article title has to be that specific, as there are indeed other techniques in modern use, as yet uncovered by WP, except in a few bios. The number of redirects is largely accounted for by providing for the very common variation between "printmaking", "print-making" and "print making" etc. The first 3, variants of "Printmaking in Japan", got 31+31+34 hits in the last 30 days, certainly enough to justify keeping them. "Japanese print" got 54. I haven't checked the rest. Johnbod ( talk) 07:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all a Westerner who is not familiar with the term "woodblock printing" and is looking for the target article is likely to use one of these phrases or something similar. Certainly searching Google for Japanese printmaking turns up references almost exclusively about woodblock printing. Hut 8.5 11:14, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all per User:Johnbod, who is obviously up on the subtle distinction here between a wood-block print and a woodblock print. We don't have spurious Rs to incorrect ones with these Japanese ones, even though it may seem so at first sight. The " maker" and "making" ones are redundant, but harmless. Marking as {{ R with possiblities}} would be futile, since there really aren't that many possibilites for a printmaker that are not covered in the target already. Si Trew ( talk) 13:16, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete all - there are multiple types of print making in Japan, not just woodblock. —Мандичка YO 😜 16:21, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete all per SteveStrummer: Deleting these canned redirects would help by preventing a false equation between traditional woodcut styles and the wider, more nuanced business of modern printmaking. The arguments made for keeping these redirects are highly presumptuous.  — Scott • talk 21:18, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all. Per many of the above keep rationales these are good search terms. As someone indicated, these exist to aid readers as do most redirects. Be prosperous!  Paine  03:21, 26 November 2015 (UTC) reply

DWAS-TV

The result of the discussion was move DWAS-TV (GMA) to DWAS-TV, delete others. The quest for truth in this discussion has returned the conclusion that there was a confusion between DWAC-TV = Studio 23 ≠ DWAS-TV by some of the previous authors, so they left a bunch of incorrect redirects in their wake. Der yck C. 18:10, 6 December 2015 (UTC) reply

No mention of "DWAS" on target page. DWAS-TV (GMA) seems to be only usage for "DWAS". Pam D 17:19, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

DWAS-TV (GMA) started life on 4 December 2011 as being moved from DWAS-TV, it was then moved to DWAS-TV (Studio 23 Olongapo) on 4 December 2011 by User:Izzami and then moved to DWAS-TV (Studio 23) on 28 December 2011 by same user, who also moved that day to its current target, DWAS-TV (GMA), leaving all these redirects in its wake.
I realise this is a move request. We could just retarget it to DWAS-TV (GMA), but then really we'd need a requested move to reverse the redirect (as {{ R from unnecessary disambiguation}}), and that's just WP:BURO. Also, I don't want to open a RM until we have consensus here that it is indeed just a confusion between DWAC-TV and DWAS-TV. (I'm certainly confused.)

This was declined for speedy so here it is. Searches find absolutely nothing for "Singlelevelers" (10 meaningless results for me) or Single Levelers (under 500 meaningless results). In fact, the delete nomination was the closest match for me the first time I searched without quotes. Purely invented term that does not match the target or anything else.

Not a likely redirect. DGG ( talk ) 01:30, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - I've seen this before, and if I recall correctly right about this time of year too. New users creating accounts duplicating existing HR topics, with titles like "functions of x" or "applications for x". I'd link to the discussion about it if I could remember where it was, but I think DGG was also involved. Anyway, human resource management is a corporate function so the title structure is redundant. Unlikely to be searched. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 05:53, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

I don't know Hebrew alphabet but I checked just by copy-pasting into my Find bar on Firefox. Râmêêl is present. Of the other alphabets, the first one "דעמאנל" is not in there that I can find, second Hebrew one "רעמאנל" is (Aramaic), third "רעמיאל" is (Hebrew), fourth "‘Ραμιήλ" (Greek) is. These can probably stay as {{ R from other language}} as they are in the WP:FIRSTSENTENCE of the target; As usual without prejudice I'll marked as such. The first (missing) one differs from the second (present) one in the first (rightmost) character, " ד" (Dalet) vs. " ר" (Resh). Dalet#Significance says it is used to represent the Names of God in Judaism.

There's really no mystery behind most of Neelix's redirects. At the time this one was created, this exact transliteration appeared in the lede. So at least one other person used this transliteration at some point. — Xezbeth ( talk) 08:05, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply
There are some common patterns (bad derivations from etymologies, for example, and verbing parts of speech that won't stand the treatment). Not all fall into that pattern; some are useful, but the user may occasionally have got a little carried away with adverbialisationalness.. Si Trew ( talk) 13:40, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Misleading. Roister means enjoy oneself or celebrate in a noisy or boisterous way. Riot means 1. a wild or turbulent disturbance created by a large number of people. 2. Law A violent disturbance of the public peace by three or more persons assembled... Roist is not really a word. I thought boisterous but no such article. Delete to encourage article creation, with maybe the less complex ones pointed at party. Another from Neelix Legacypac ( talk) 23:46, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • retarget ALL to Party; though I'd be happy to see Roisterously deleted, because the only things I can find are (proper) dictionary defintions; I'm not sure we should have " Roisterer(s)" when we don't have partygoer (whether spaced, hyphenated or pluralised). What we shouldn't do is take them to different targets, that's just confusing.

Very vague. The target has these meanings, but you can carry over a plate, carry over a motion etc. Same for the other terms which do not apply only or even especially to this church office. Legacypac ( talk) 23:02, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete all as WP:RFD#D2 confusing. The target does not have these meanings, since it's a noun (rightly) and not a verb (wrongly); there's no way that "a prelate" is "a set above". All kinds of WP:TITLE problems here which apparently don't apply to redirects, but in the meantime I'll mark them as {{ R from verb}}. Si Trew ( talk) 04:06, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Comment. I think these have just been scraped from the etymology in the lede, which often gives incongrous redirects since several things can share the same etymology. F'rexample, we could retarget To prefer to preference; but why do so, when patently we have survived without that until now? Si Trew ( talk) 04:09, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

This is a transcription of the Greek word for the diaeresis (διαλυτικά, dialytika) and the Greek word for the accent (τόνος, tonos).

"Antoneta" is a typo, her first name is Antoaneta, as her FIDE page ( http://ratings.fide.com/card.phtml?event=2902257) and all the chess websites and magazines report. Sophia91 ( talk) 19:26, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The second is perhaps more relevant (to RfD) in that it is a Bulgarian publication making this transliteration. Tag as {{ R from transliteration}}. Si Trew ( talk) 13:07, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • It's a misspelling, not a valid alternative transliteration. You'll find your Bulgarian source correctly spells it "Antoaneta" twice in that article; the one appearance of "Antoneta" is just a typo. It does demonstrate it's a plausible typo and a likely search term, though. Sideways713 ( talk) 13:26, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Also the French article correctly spells "Antoaneta", the typo is only in the title. I follow almost everyday the leading chess news websites, which are ChessBase, Chessdom, Chess.com, chess24, and none of them ever spelled "Antoneta". In Wikipedia there were only two articles that wrongly spelled "Antoneta" and I fixed the typo in both articles, so now there are no wiki articles with "Antoneta Stefanova", there is no reason to keep this misspelled name. In addition, all the online chess games databases spell her name as "Antoaneta Stefanova". Sophia91 ( talk) 15:30, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Print making in Japan

The result of the discussion was no consensus. This is a bit complicated. It seems indisputably true that woodblock printing does not represent the entirety of Japanese printing, but also that it's Japan's best known technique in that field. I think it's inevitable that some of these will disappoint or mislead readers, but perhaps more will be served by them. An optimal outcome would be for someone to write an article on printmaking in Japan in its entirety. -- BDD ( talk) 16:37, 2 December 2015 (UTC) reply

Too vague. Lots of things get printed in Japan without wood blocks Legacypac ( talk) 15:17, 18 November 2015 (UTC) reply

In Japan, until after about 1870, printmaking was just woodblock printing, and it is only Japanese woodblock prints that are famous in the West - ukiyo-e, The Great Wave off Kanagawa etc. Johnbod ( talk) 07:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep with a possible "{{ Redirect with possibilities}} if it can be shown that there is material for an article on alternative techniques (in Japan). All the best: Rich  Farmbrough, 21:34, 19 November 2015 (UTC). reply
  • Comment The editor that challanged this said I don't know the difference between printing and printmaking which is incorrect. There are all kinds of printmaking and none of them are particularly specific to Japan. If there is something special in Japan it can have an article, but none of these terms would be the title. I also encourage people to look at all the redirects pointed at the target - there are lots - these being the most vague. Legacypac ( talk) 22:07, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply
I was just going by what you said. It is certainly untrue that "none of them are particularly specific to Japan" - this one is. Johnbod ( talk) 07:53, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Actually, without looking at them all, I see only a couple of those using other techniques in Category:Japanese printmakers. We have many articles on individual Japanese prints and series, but all woodblock as far as I can see. Art of Japan currently has nothing on any other techniques (I'm not saying that's appropriate, but it is the current position). 1850 (for example) is not "ancient". Johnbod ( talk) 07:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Nearly every artist in that category also works/worked in oils, watercolors, etc. Among the modern professionals, some have no connection to woodblock at all. Museums may celebrate this ancient antique form most often, but no matter how well known it is, contemporary art trends matter too. It seems parochial, or at least weirdly quaint, to redirect inquiries on Japanese printmaking to this single traditional style, SteveStrummer ( talk) 15:48, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
But we have a vast amount on that, and nothing outside bios on other techniques in Japan. So there is really nowhere else to send them, but (see below) they are rather commonly used. How does deleting them help? The only Japanese printmaker in other techniques at all well known in the West is Tsuguharu Foujita who spent decades in France. "Nearly every artist in that category also works/worked in oils, watercolors, etc." is not true - most are "antique" (as you put it) woodblock guys, with 129 in the relevant subcats, several repeated in the main category. Johnbod ( talk) 16:06, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Inquiries made into basic printmaking can quickly and easily yield information on the Japanese scene. Deleting these canned redirects would help by preventing a false equation between traditional woodcut styles and the wider, more nuanced business of modern printmaking. SteveStrummer ( talk) 17:05, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
There is nothing at printmaking on other Japanese work. Frankly, as the hits on modern printmakers' bios show, the vast majority of our readers are interested in the historic, famous, woodblock tradition. Redirects are there to help the reader, not promote our own agendas. Johnbod ( talk) 17:55, 23 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Agendas? Really? That's where you think your opposition comes from... on "Printmaking in Japan"?? SteveStrummer ( talk) 01:46, 24 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. At Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2015_November_20#Japanese_wood-block_printings, the next day's listing, I've listed some others to the same target (those ending in "printings"). Si Trew ( talk) 05:29, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all Woodblock prints are the big, famous Japanese technique in printmaking, exclusively the one used by Hokusai and other famous masters, though of course in the last 150 years other techniques have come in from the West. As we have no general article on Japanese printmaking, this is the best destination. At the same time, the average person is unlikely to know to start their search term with "Woodblock printing", though this is technically correct. The article title has to be that specific, as there are indeed other techniques in modern use, as yet uncovered by WP, except in a few bios. The number of redirects is largely accounted for by providing for the very common variation between "printmaking", "print-making" and "print making" etc. The first 3, variants of "Printmaking in Japan", got 31+31+34 hits in the last 30 days, certainly enough to justify keeping them. "Japanese print" got 54. I haven't checked the rest. Johnbod ( talk) 07:41, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all a Westerner who is not familiar with the term "woodblock printing" and is looking for the target article is likely to use one of these phrases or something similar. Certainly searching Google for Japanese printmaking turns up references almost exclusively about woodblock printing. Hut 8.5 11:14, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all per User:Johnbod, who is obviously up on the subtle distinction here between a wood-block print and a woodblock print. We don't have spurious Rs to incorrect ones with these Japanese ones, even though it may seem so at first sight. The " maker" and "making" ones are redundant, but harmless. Marking as {{ R with possiblities}} would be futile, since there really aren't that many possibilites for a printmaker that are not covered in the target already.

  • Delete all - there are multiple types of print making in Japan, not just woodblock. —Мандичка YO 😜 16:21, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The arguments made for keeping these redirects are highly presumptuous.  — Scott • talk 21:18, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was move DWAS-TV (GMA) to DWAS-TV, delete others. The quest for truth in this discussion has returned the conclusion that there was a confusion between DWAC-TV = Studio 23 ≠ DWAS-TV by some of the previous authors, so they left a bunch of incorrect redirects in their wake.

No mention of "DWAS" on target page. DWAS-TV (GMA) seems to be only usage for "DWAS". Pam D 17:19, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

DWAS-TV (GMA) started life on 4 December 2011 as being moved from DWAS-TV, it was then moved to DWAS-TV (Studio 23 Olongapo) on 4 December 2011 by User:Izzami and then moved to DWAS-TV (Studio 23) on 28 December 2011 by same user, who also moved that day to its current target, DWAS-TV (GMA), leaving all these redirects in its wake.
I realise this is a move request. We could just retarget it to DWAS-TV (GMA), but then really we'd need a requested move to reverse the redirect (as {{ R from unnecessary disambiguation}}), and that's just WP:BURO. Also, I don't want to open a RM until we have consensus here that it is indeed just a confusion between DWAC-TV and DWAS-TV. (I'm certainly confused.)

I do inform, at least once per batch anyway, which gives a link to the discussion. Legacypac ( talk) 01:58, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
I don't know Hebrew alphabet but I checked just by copy-pasting into my Find bar on Firefox. Râmêêl is present. Of the other alphabets, the first one "דעמאנל" is not in there that I can find, second Hebrew one "רעמאנל" is (Aramaic), third "רעמיאל" is (Hebrew), fourth "‘Ραμιήλ" (Greek) is. These can probably stay as {{ R from other language}} as they are in the WP:FIRSTSENTENCE of the target; As usual without prejudice I'll marked as such. The first (missing) one differs from the second (present) one in the first (rightmost) character, " ד" (Dalet) vs. " ר" (Resh). Dalet#Significance says it is used to represent the Names of God in Judaism. I'm just reporting what I found from Wikipeda in case others have trouble with rendering etc; I don't know the rights and wrongs of this. It's certainly it's not easy doing bidirectional text editing! Si Trew ( talk) 08:54, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply
If they're mentioned in the target they might be useful, and these are defined at the top of the lede. But none seems to be present on Hebrew Wikipedia, nor the target have an Interwiki link thence. Si Trew ( talk) 10:18, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Blasphemy. There is a big difference between "the birth of the gods" and The birth of God (the one God who was and is and is to come). Legacypac ( talk) 00:57, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Retarget per 70.51. I've put a {{ redirect}} hatnote on Evolutionary origin of religions, to which Origin of religion redirects. I ain't joining that fight. Si Trew ( talk) 04:46, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • delete There's no reason to suppose that someone typing in this phrase wants instruction about atheism-assuming theories of religion's origins, and there are so many potential births of gods that picking one of them is hopeless (consider that Nativity of Jesus is a valid target).

phonetic pronunciation only of the Arabic version of the name. Inappropriate redirect to a town that has a well recognized name in English. Legacypac ( talk) 00:52, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

There's really no mystery behind most of Neelix's redirects. At the time this one was created, this exact transliteration appeared in the lede. So at least one other person used this transliteration at some point. — Xezbeth ( talk) 08:05, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply
There are some common patterns (bad derivations from etymologies, for example, and verbing parts of speech that won't stand the treatment). Not all fall into that pattern; some are useful, but the user may occasionally have got a little carried away with adverbialisationalness.. Si Trew ( talk) 13:40, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Incorrect contrived Hebrew meanings to names. Not useful search terms as too vague. Someone reading the article might like to know the meaning of the name, but not useful in the reverse. Like another group nominated earlier. Legacypac ( talk) 00:48, 19 November 2015 (UTC) reply

A paper-thin majority of 7 to 5, according to my counting: and that's being generous with a couple of "spikes"(to two a day!) at the end of October. Si Trew ( talk) 04:54, 20 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per nom. Note that not all instances of page views are actual human beings doing actual searches. From time to time, Wikipedia pages get pinged by web crawlers. bd2412 T 13:15, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
