The result of the discussion was delete. -- BDD ( talk) 21:58, 28 December 2018 (UTC) reply

This appears to be an WP:XY between Shared services and Outsourcing. Interestingly enough, SSO is defined in the Shared services article as a "shared-service organization". -- Tavix ( talk) 21:16, 20 December 2018 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was delete. -- BDD ( talk) 21:57, 28 December 2018 (UTC) reply

Business and industry was deleted, and I believe this one should follow. This is not an intuitive search term for the target. It is the only remaining redirect that begins with "business and industry", so it was not a well-used format. -- Tavix ( talk) 21:11, 20 December 2018 (UTC) reply

A SPA created an article of what looks to be a neologism that was subsequently redirected instead of deleted for whatever reason. The term is not mentioned at the target, and, per the author there is no agreed definition of the term. -- Tavix ( talk) 20:36, 20 December 2018 (UTC) reply

Sharpe's Rifles

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 move Sharpe's Rifles (novel) to the base title. Not much of a consensus, but this seems to be slightly favored among participants. Also note that the status quo is the novel being the primary topic. -- Tavix ( talk) 23:12, 6 January 2019 (UTC) reply

What is the primary topic here - Sharpe's Rifles (novel), Sharpe's Rifles (TV programme), Sharpe's Rifles (disambiguation), or Sharps rifle? Where should Sharp's Rifles (the search term I used looking for the TV programme) and Sharp's rifles point? Thryduulf ( talk)

Retarget all 3 to Sharpe's Rifles (disambiguation) since no primary subject. Add the two that don't exist, targeted at the same place. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 22:58, 2 December 2018 (UTC) reply
Comment You can't redirect Foo to Foo (disambiguation) leaving nothing at the base name: you should move Foo (disambiguation) to Foo. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 15:03, 7 December 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Move Sharpe's Rifles (novel) over redirect. The book Sharpe's Rifles is the primary topic. The television "episode" or (TV programme) is an adaptation and is secondary topic. The ones where it says Sharp's Rifles or Sharps Rifles (without the e at the end of Sharp) can go to the rifle. A hatnote can then go back to the book. Don't create new redirects though, that would be more confusing. AngusWOOF ( barksniff) 02:32, 21 December 2018 (UTC) reply
Okay, fine, you can create those, I just recommend any spelling variants of Sharps without the e go to the rifles product; and any variant that includes the e, like Sharpes' Rifles go to the book. AngusWOOF ( barksniff) 20:37, 21 December 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Move Sharpe's Rifles (novel) over redirect.. I agree with Angus here. Unless there is overwhelming statistical evidence that a derivative work has eclipsed the original work in terms of prominence, the base title should go to the original work, and any derivative work's article titles disambiguated.

Should an actor really redirect to the cast list of a film he was in? -- wooden superman 13:01, 20 December 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete this isn't helpful as it's not his film. AngusWOOF ( barksniff) 02:40, 21 December 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Redirecting an actor to the cast list of a specific film can occasionally be appropriate, specifically if it's plainly verifiable that said film was the only role the person ever actually had — but Warrington Gillette has several credits in his IMDb page, and it's not patently obvious that this performance wildly outstrips any of the others in comparative notability either.

The result of the discussion was speedy deleted per WP:G5. These were created by a sock of Winterysteppe. -- Tavix ( talk) 14:53, 20 December 2018 (UTC) reply

As far as I can discern, the city of Anchorage, Alaska holds its mayoral elections every three years (see e.g. Ballotpedia): there were elections in 2015 and 2018, but not in 2017 or 2019. –  Arms & Hearts ( talk) 00:28, 20 December 2018 (UTC) reply
