- George Welles → Orson Welles ( links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/ retarget/ delete ]
Although Orson's birth name was George (Orson) Welles, I think it's better to retarget this to the DAB at George Wells. Si Trew ( talk) 23:07, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

(Neelix redirect.) 'Retarget' to
sluicing, where it is used, whereas it is not at the current target. I've marked it as {{
R from verb}}.
sluices ->
sluice probably doesn't suffer that problem because although it can be both the plural noun and second person form of the verb, it isn't used in either article and someone is unlikely to search that way for sluicing.

(Neelix redirect.) This is at the target (once) but only in the etymology, and
WP:NOTDIC. Presumably anything without a yoke is yokeless, so either delete it or retarget to
yoke or

- They would be Yolkless noodles, but we don't have yolkless either. egg selection -> oocyte selection, but that seems a bit far-fetched as it's to do with selecting eggs for in vitro fertilization and not, for example, to preselect for double-yolked eggs. Is it possible to have a yolkless egg? I suppose it would not be an egg since the common definition of an egg is white + yolk (+shell sometimes).

Not 100% sure. (Neelix redirect.) Lots of people are called Yussuf or Youssof, but we don't have a name article for these particular variations. We do have an article at Yusuf so that's probably better, but some other variations target Joseph.Legacypac kindly found them and added them below. Si Trew ( talk) 20:40, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

I feel that this should be kept. Many people remember Poochy from the Simpsons and may type this in. Ilikeguys21 ( talk) 13:36, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Poochy is not the character from The Simpsons; it's a redirect to the DAB page Poochie, as anyone typing it in and then clicking "search" will find out. The character actually has its own redirect Poochie (The Simpsons), and is listed on that DAB. Si Trew ( talk) 20:26, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Delete per
WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. See also
Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion#/Log/2016_April_7#Poochie_dog. This is on the DAB at
Poochie. Hits below noise level; the first was an article before being turned into a redirect on 1 July 2007 by
User:TTN. No links in article space other than the DAB. The second is an {{
R from move}} from the first on 20 April 2007, before it became an R itself.

I feel that this should be kept. Many people remember Poochy from the Simpsons and may type this in. Ilikeguys21 ( talk) 13:36, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Poochy is not the character from The Simpsons; it's a redirect to the DAB page Poochie, as anyone typing it in and then clicking "search" will find out. The character actually has its own redirect Poochie (The Simpsons), and is listed on that DAB. Si Trew ( talk) 20:26, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Delete per
WP:RFD#D2 confusing, not at target. See also
Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion#/Log/2016_April_7#Poochie_dog. This is on the DAB at
Poochie. Hits below noise level; the first was an article before being turned into a redirect on 1 July 2007 by
User:TTN. No links in article space other than the DAB. The second is an {{
R from move}} from the first on 20 April 2007, before it became an R itself.

- The first of these (that was an article until July 2007) is fully protected so I've left the RfD note on the talk page. I can't find any discussion of why this was protected, or by whom. Si Trew ( talk) 18:22, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Not even a casual mention of a Poochie / Poochy character at Power Instinct article. AngusWOOF ( bark • sniff) 15:03, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
