Userspace #R to an infobox template. ~ Tom.Reding ( talk ⋅ dgaf) 22:00, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
- Keep So what? Harms literally nobody and isn't a valid reason for deletion. ~ Amory ( u • t • c) 18:35, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
- I was just going to respond by saying that it needlessly clutters
Rdcheck and the associated regex (as it did when this was first listed), but it appears that
Dispenser has excluded userspace #Rs from his tool in the meantime. Nice work! ~

- Correction - I believe it is the RfD notice on the #R that is interfering with Rdcheck. See the Rdcheck for {{ Infobox soap character}} as an example of how User:Iamcuriousblue/Template:Female adult bio would normally appear.

- I would lean toward "keep" also, per Amory; however, the bold typeface can wait until we've heard from the user regarding their subpage redirect. Paine Ellsworth put'r there 17:35, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: I don't use AWB and I don't know what Rdcheck is, so I don't understand the rationale for deletion. Can a layperson's explanation be provided (ideally both here and at #User:Peter G Werner/Template:Infobox Scientist)? As it stands my inclination is to !vote to keep, as this is more than a decade old, so there's a possibility of incoming external links, and whatever the rationale for deletion is it doesn't seem to be based in any policy or guideline. – Arms & Hearts ( talk) 20:33, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

- Sounds like it'd be helpful if Dispenser made a change/option to hide these, or AWB should probably allow you to manually override namespaces. I get that redirects to templates are different than to mainspace articles, but I don't see why we need to adapt our behavior to a couple of tools rather than the other way 'round. ~ Amory ( u • t • c) 11:50, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

- Keep all. As I wrote at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2018 February 28#Cruee, "The point presumably is that when it isn't possible to reproduce the umlaut diacritic it's sometimes replaced by an 'e' following the letter in question. Obviously in the case of the heavy metal umlaut it would be incorrect to use an 'e' in place of the umlaut, but redirects are not required to be correct. In this case there's a plausible point of confusion which the redirect can clarify for the reader, and no harm done by keeping these." – Arms & Hearts ( talk) 14:16, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

We previously deleted a similar redirect ( Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 October 15#Suji (or Rava)) back when neither alternative name was mentioned at the target. Both names are now mentioned, but I still believe that One Alternative Name (or Other Alternative Name) is implausible either as a search term or as an attempt at disambiguating a link. 59.149.124.29 ( talk) 05:09, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

- Keep all. As I wrote at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2018 February 28#Cruee, "The point presumably is that when it isn't possible to reproduce the umlaut diacritic it's sometimes replaced by an 'e' following the letter in question. Obviously in the case of the heavy metal umlaut it would be incorrect to use an 'e' in place of the umlaut, but redirects are not required to be correct. In this case there's a plausible point of confusion which the redirect can clarify for the reader, and no harm done by keeping these." – Arms & Hearts ( talk) 14:16, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

We previously deleted a similar redirect ( Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 October 15#Suji (or Rava)) back when neither alternative name was mentioned at the target. Both names are now mentioned, but I still believe that One Alternative Name (or Other Alternative Name) is implausible either as a search term or as an attempt at disambiguating a link. 59.149.124.29 ( talk) 05:09, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
