• Fish sandwich → Fish finger sandwich  ( links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Every "fish sandwich" is not a "fish finger sandwich". So, delete per WP:XY and WP:REDLINK since there is potential for a broad-concept article at this title. Steel1943 ( talk) 20:16, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

I'm going to have to pull you on this, out of pure pedantry. To say Ëvery X is not Y is not the same as saying Not every X is Y. that is just basically what Peano was bashing on about (He was rabbitting about why 1 equals 1 and it isa long proof to show that it do.) Shakespeare does it, ""all that glisters is not gold"" when he means not all that glisters is gold, he doesn't mean that nothing that glisters is gold. So I suppose you have an old excuse. We have it as All that glitters is not gold here at EN:WP, but that is wrong, should be glisters. See Trew, 05, Shakesepeare for Dummies. Si Trew ( talk) 13:49, 30 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• Public Square → Public Square, Cleveland  ( links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

A few hours ago, Public Square was changed from a redirect to Town square to a disambiguation page. I've fixed the links, and redirected it to what appears to be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, Public Square, Cleveland. However, because of the changes of today, I feel that a discussion is appropriate. I see a few options:

1. Leave the redirect to Public Square, Cleveland as a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. 81 of the 83 incoming links to Public Square were meant for Public Square, Cleveland (the other two were meant for Town square).
2. Change the redirect to Town square. Public square already redirects to Town square, so this would match that redirect (there is also a hatnote on Town square pointing to Public Square, Cleveland).
3. Delete the redirect and move Public Square (disambiguation) to Public Square.
4. ???

My vote is to leave the redirect alone, but again, I feel that a discussion to gauge consensus is appropriate. - Niceguyedc ^{Go Huskies!} 09:32, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

You are quite right to bring it here. It is, after all, redirects for discussion, not deletion, whatever Twinkle and other tools try to persuade you otherwise.

Comment. A public square, a plaza or Hungarian piac (Market), is not specifically this place in Cleveland. It is as likely to be the forum (DAB on which first entry is Forum (Roman)), according to history. I don't think anyone is arguing that it geometrically must be a square but a public place -> public space. I don't think it should be deleted, but retargeted somehow, I offer up suggestions. Si Trew ( talk) 13:01, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

I was never under any belief that this was redirects for deletion, and no tool is going to persuade me of anything. I cleaned up a mess created by someone else, and instead of unilaterally making a decision, which I could have done by not starting this discussion, I did start the discussion. - Niceguyedc ^{Go Huskies!} 08:53, 22 September 2015 (UTC) reply

I didn't mean to suggest you were, I can see in hindsight the comment I made at the top was rather patronising.

Si Trew ( talk) 09:33, 22 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• Oppose option 1 If the place in Cleveland is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the term "Public Square", that should be its title. ", Cleveland" is disambiguation ( NATURAL disambiguation is disambiguation too!) and should only be present if necessary. Thus, I'd suggest option 4 be moving Public Square, Cleveland to Public Square. I'm not saying that's what I want to happen, but it should be on the table. -- BDD ( talk) 13:27, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Comment. Quite right to put it on the table, but I think that is ridiculous. That would be to suggest that Cleveland's public square is the only public square in the world, or at least the most prominent one (PRIMARY, as you say). Patently it is not. I can think of many more public squares more prominent than Cleveland's.

I think best to R to the DAB, and move the DAB at Public Square (disambiguation) over this, although I want to add to that as it does not list many public squares. I am not sure quite how far we go with what is a public square, for example Trafalgar Square or Times Square should be at that DAB. In the absence of List of public squares or anything similar (i.e. places in the middle of a city for people to assemble to party or protest) then we have to make a start somehow. Clevelend does not stand out as being an exceptionally partying city or protesting city. Victory Square is in Nineteen Eighty-Four as a deliberately thinly disguised version of Trafalgar Square, and that's a DAB in its own right, mostly from the Soviet Union, so that gives us kinda a precedent for how we name these things.

I can see a list or DAB coming along here, but not sure how far I should go with it. In Budapest where I live, there are lots of tiny little "square"s that are not very notable. Si Trew ( talk) 15:06, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

*Procedural close, please, I have converted this into an article (a stub) listing squares, and so is no longer a redirect. Si Trew ( talk) 15:24, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• Retarget back to Public Square, Cleveland with an other uses hatnote. Public Square is a named landmark in Cleveland, exactly like Central Park which I note is not a dab listing every park at the centre of a town or district. Roughly option 1, although what BDD said is also correct and I would not be opposed to moving Public Square, Cleveland over the redirect dab that Si made.

Side note: why does Hyde Park, London not live over the dab at Hyde Park? Looking into it. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 15:41, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Hmmm, Ivanvector, I think I had an ( edit conflict) with you maybe, I thought it was with BDD but I checked and wasn't, and I checked the history to make sure I hadn't trampled any other's comments. It said there was an ec but I couldn't find one in the history, so if I have trampled yours or BDDs please take that as a mistake, I did check as best I could.

Look up Public square in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

Tricky one this isn't it. I still don't think that someone searching for "Public square" will be looking for the particular place in Cleveland, I think they are more likely to be looking for "what is a public square". That being said, we are not WP:DICDEF and I hadn't bothered to looup Wiktionary, and having now done so, it doesn't have it, so that's about as much use as a snake in an arse-kicking competition.

Obviously my stuff is essentially WP:OR to define what a public square is by giving examples of (to my mind) public squares. But perhaps it should just go red, then, cos I can't see that Public Square (Cleveland) is what people are likely to want to find, that is WP:SURPRISE). I haven't looked at Hyde Park yet (deliberately not linking) and my opinion on that I shall give shortly or list it at RM if worthwhile, but we might as well discuss it here first rather than make work for each other. Si Trew ( talk) 15:49, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

The gotcha is in the caps. You wouldn't expect public square to be anything other than a redirect to town square, but Public Square you can reasonably expect to be a named place, or a list of them if there are several. There don't seem to be several. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 17:51, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Indeed, I had noticed that. The thing is many (most?) ways of searching are case-insensitive, and there is the gotcha, so I think WP:DIFFCAPS has kinda got weaker over the years as WP's search engine has got stronger, I feel the argument to differentiate by capital letters is far far harder to make than it was, say, six years ago. I mean I know I am a quarter of a world away from Cleveland, so perhaps I have kinda undue prejudice because it is "a long way away" (though actually I have flown from there on a little Beechcraft across Lake Ontario to Canadaland), but I just not sure this is WP:WORLDWIDE really. Si Trew ( talk) 09:24, 22 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• Support Option 2: Basically, a Public square is another word for town square in most places. I don't understand why it should redirect to the Cleveland's public square. That's not the primary topic.-- Jamie Tubers ( talk) 16:06, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply
• Retarget with Jamie, to Town square. Much better idea. Town Square redirects to Town Square (Las Vegas), though... and Town Square (disambiguation) and Town square (disambiguation) are red so that is a needless disambiguation. Have can will worms. Si Trew ( talk) 16:13, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply
• Public Square, Cleveland should be moved back to Public Square, per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and WP:DIFFCAPS. This is how we had things from 2006 until this past July, when Jamie Tubers moved the article without discussion. - Eureka Lott 16:46, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

No, I cannot see for the life of me why the name of a place in one town, however big that town, should be a WP:SURPRISE to anyone who is not from Cleveland. I do not see how it is at all the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC when we have town square or Forum (Roman), what is the difference in meaning. Public square has gone to Town square since 2004, which trumps EurekaLott's, and although WP:DIFFCAPS I really do not see that it is that much. Si Trew ( talk) 22:21, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

This is precisely what WP:DIFFCAPS is intended to address. Public square points to town square, as it should, and a correctly-hanoted Public Square article should be about the square in Cleveland. That was what we had for the better part of a decade before it was disrupted a few months ago. - Eureka Lott 22:52, 21 September 2015 (UTC) reply

I see your point, I think, but saying "We always did it this way" is not a very convincing argument, the question is "what do we do now?". I can see an argument for keeping it to preserve history, external links and so on, but if we followed that to the exclusion of all others then we'd never change anything (we wouldn't even add text to articles, for example), so of itself I don't see that being very convincing. I agree with you the disruption was unhelpful, but the question is what do we do with it now, after that disruption has taken place? Si Trew ( talk) 09:16, 22 September 2015 (UTC) reply

You're putting words in my mouth. All I said is that we had things right, and that we had them right for a long time. I cited relevant guidelines, and all you've offered is a WP:JUSTDONTLIKEIT argument. - 15:15, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

Hmmm, have I? I thought I had offered a selection of choices of where we might retarget it. Certainly I don't like it, but now you are putting words in my mouth. I tend to quote policy more than others because some editors like to be quoted policy, but I don't give a shit about policy but what is better for the encyclopaedia (essentially, WP:IAR if you must). I just feel that with search engines these days the DIFFCAPS is becoming a bit irrelevant. This is very hard to justify, I admit, because the search results are case-insensitive. We must, here at RfD, kinda second-guess what people might be looking for, hits sometimes are playing a blinder in that way that they can misinform. I really don't know, but we have to fix it somewhere, and at least sending it to the DAB confuses nobody. Si Trew ( talk) 20:02, 22 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Clamshell is a DAB, it seems that nobody knows (or rather is not primary topic) what a Clam is (they taste lovely) or its shell, so this has changed meaning.

  • Notebooks do not exist from that era, and tablets are so new as to not have existed a few years ago, and tablets don't open physically. Lack of historical context means trying to look for clamshell notebooks, when the era of distinguishing between clamshells and non-clamshells had already passed by then.

    • • Yeah, my problem is essentially this term was invented as a metaphor for a clam shell or oyster shell. It's probably more suited to Wiktionary, though I am the primary contributer to {{ etymology}} here and we could do that way if we had RS. You're saying we don't have RS, which is a bit of a challenge then for me to find some! But I agree it is kinda a word that lived and died very shortly. I agree about the tablet, I just threw that in as a juxtaposition, but I think we still have clamshell phones, but nobody calls them that now, and that is an R to Flip (form), so it's tricky isn't it. On a technical point, we have to be careful with clamshell and clam shell. You can't have it both ways, I think, clam shell redirects to clamshell but the idea of it being the shell of a clam has been entirely lost in doing so.

I think you must have a different understanding of what a fishcake is. In British English, it is a kinda compacted and usually battered or breaded ready-made food, essentially a fish finger. I guess from what you are saying, you are implying that it is a block of white fish that can be used as an ingredient? Si Trew ( talk) 18:34, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Read the salmon burger article, and your question shall be answered. -- Tavix ^{( talk)} 18:48, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

( edit conflict) with Steely. Oh, come off it Tavix. Perhaps the can of worms I opened attracted the fish. I am reluctant to read the targets for the reason that what is someone likely to search for, not that one has special knowledge when one gets there. We don't have Perch burger or Pike burger or Bream burger for example. That is just even more leading us down the garden path. Si Trew ( talk) 19:33, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• @ Tavix: Per your vote, it seems like the phrase "fish burger" should be vacated for a broad-concept article with Salmon burger being a subtopic. In that regard, "delete per WP:REDLINK" may be more appropriate so that Salmon burger can remain a standalone article from the article which it is a subtopic. Steel1943 ( talk) 19:29, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Well I am not sure about that. a burger is essentially Mince (food) (but not minced food) and the DAB at Mince is very US'-centric by the way, nobody but the Americans call minced beef ground beef, and mince is not specifically about beef but anything you whack through a mincer. To mince, aslo in Br. Eng. means to be a camp gay, but we haven't that listed. Anyway, we are WP:NOTRECIPE. I think to enumerate every possible type of cheap fish bread products would be unproductive for us, even if profitable for Findus. Si Trew ( talk) 19:44, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

( edit conflict) I was thinking of invoking WP:NOTRECIPE as well, but then I found List of hamburgers. It's not a list of recipes, but rather, a list of recipe examples. But, for a list of "fish burgers", since fish as food isn't exclusive to one species of fish, such an article could be less of a recipe list than even List of hamburgers. Steel1943 ( talk) 19:52, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• @ Steel1943:, not necessarily, especially because I don't see how you would have enough information for different articles on all the different types of fish burgers. The salmon burger really isn't all that different from others, from what I can tell, so preventing overlap would be hard. (I wish I had enough time to create a draft.) -- Tavix ^{( talk)} 19:59, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

I do have time on my hands and will happily create a draft for y'alls consideration, but I am not sure what it should be a draft for, an article about fish burgers or a DAB? I would DAB it, but I can probably make a stub about Clarence Birdseye and so forth, and Frosted food, and the Cod War (Britain vs. Iceland, we won) and whatever. I am just not sure what direction I should take that article even as draft. Si Trew ( talk) 05:27, 30 September 2015 (UTC) reply

Hmm, that's true... what is a fish sandwich. In Penny Lane (song) there is the line "a four of fish-and finger pies" but I think it must have been one of John Lennon's bad days crowbarred in to fit the rhyme cos nobody calls them fish-and-finger pies (with or without the hyphens) do they?

• REtarget to fish sandwich which has been nominated further up in RfD and seems to be trending towards becoming an SIA, so a perfect target for fish burger. Oppose "Filet-O-Fish" since WP:ADVERT we should not advertise MCDonalds here. Oppose replacing with "salmon burger" since many fish burgers do not use salmon nor have a salmon taste. If "fish sandwich" does not become a set index, then this should become one instead. because not all fishburgers use fishcake patties, some [1] use grilled fish -- 70.51.202.113 ( talk) 03:16, 30 September 2015 (UTC) reply

To transclude this template, {{Template:Subst:ncd}} must be used, as otherwise Template:Ncd would be substituted. GeoffreyT2000 ( talk) 01:34, 29 September 2015 (UTC) reply

• Wow, this is a good one. I would almost say that creation of pages with "subst:" anywhere in at the beginning of (Change to wording. Steel1943 ( talk) 17:44, 29 September 2015 (UTC)) a page's title should be added to the title creation blacklist due to causing technical issues since "subst:" is used in template functions. (Yes, I am aware that the capital "S" prevents this template from being substituted, but the first letter of a page in any namespace is always capitalized by default, even when the link starts with a lowercase letter.) So, with this being said, I think this should be deleted, but with the alternative of weak retarget to Template:Now commons dated since Template:Ncd redirects there. Either way, I strongly suggest my addition to the title creation blacklist as suggested above (thus, I really do support deletion over retargeting.)

• Delete it with prejudice. Anyone dabbling in template namespace should know what they're on about, and it is not as if it went to Template:subst:ncd as an {{R from other capitalization}}. {{:Template:Subst} aksi redirects the same way as does Template:subst. I don't see the need for the :ncd but I can see the harm that it causes for editors finding four redirects to the same template, the harm is WP:ASTONISHment.
