(Species) is only used with real species. The redirect implies that Goombas are a real species name when in fact they aren't.ZXCVBNM (
TALK) 19:54, 21 January 2018 (UTC)reply
But a redirect doesn't have to be informative so much as helpful, no? If someone searches for "goomba species", with or without the word "fictional", isn't it good that that person will be led to the right article—which will dispel the false notion if the user had been under the impression that they're a real species?
Largoplazo (
talk) 20:08, 21 January 2018 (UTC)reply
"(species)" simply implies a species. That's it. Nowhere does it imply "real species". It would have to be "(real species)", or similar, for it to imply a real species. --
Tavix(
talk) 20:19, 21 January 2018 (UTC)reply
To be clear, I would disagree with it in the title of the article. If the actual article were to be disambiguated, I'd expect the disambiguator to be "(fictional species)". For a redirect, though, it seems immaterial to me. In fact, if the article were titled "Goomba (fictional species)", I'd still be happy with a redirect to it titled "Goomba (species)".

Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2018_January_18#Alt-right_haircut (@
Pichpich:@
PCock:@
Toddst1:). I see no compelling reason to redirect hipster hair or fashy and the rest to Undercut. Most of these redirects seem to be names that were invented by User:Osama57 but have no association with the undercut in real life.
For clarity, all of the above is part of Deka's nomination statement, which I've refactored slightly so as to have all of the redirects listed in standard format. — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 02:28, 22 January 2018 (UTC)reply

I'd very much like for this to be separated since the plausibility varies a lot. This was the actual hairstyle of many historical Nazi officers, as is mentioned at
Undercut_(hairstyle)#Origins. Something like '
Hitler Youth (haircut)' is a hell of a lot more connected than the generic '
Hipster haircut', which is so vague that it could mean a number of different hairstyles.
CoffeeWithMarkets (
talk) 02:41, 22 January 2018 (UTC)reply
I bundled them together because they all seem almost equally pointless, were created by the same users and link to the same article. But I'm not opposed to separate them in different discussions. I also did made a notification to this discussion at the other discussion page.
Numbers 2-5 could just as well point to at least a dozen of different articles. The rest look like inventions by User Osama, like Richard Spencer haircut which speaks for itself. --
Dekacarandaebonelm (
talk) 17:10, 22 January 2018 (UTC)reply
This, one of the sources mentioned in the article, says that his haircut is fondly if ironically referred to by many wearers as a “fashy.” If a reader of that
Washington Post article were to look for the corresponding Wikipedia article, it isn't clear they should search for "undercut" rather than "fashy". Same thing with a number of other sources used (
Esquire, for example): they call it "fashy", not "undercut". I'm not suggesting Wikipedia's article be renamed, but given how the reliable sources uses the terms, at least keeping redirects like #2 or #8 seems appropriate.
Gabbe (

These shouldn't've been bundled, and I pity the closer. That said, keep 2, 6-8, and 10. Weak keep 1 and 9. Delete 3-5. That leaves me neutral on 11 and 12, which I haven't heard of. --

Dekacarandaebonelm (

Delete 3-5. While this is associated with hipsters before the alt-right, it's not 1:1 enough for a redirect. The other terms all get coverage in reliable sources as alternative names for this haircut. For example
[2] for "jugend". ----

on members of
Category:Unsynchronized disambiguation talk pages. Now, the edit to deactivate the redirect by sandwiching it within the RfD template code should have removed the page from this category so that my bot wouldn't have processed it. However, since a null edit wasn't subsequently made to
FHSH and the "job queue" hadn't caught up to this either... "gotcha!" In any event, this was the first time this scenario has happened, in a process that's been running smoothly for over a year and a half (though I only recently automated the frequency of processing to daily by converting it from AWB to PHP), and since it's easily resolved by reverting the bot, which will have taken care of purging the page, I'm not taking any special measures to fix it. Admit I never considered that redirects so trivial that a bot processes them would come up for discussion here.

(Species) is only used with real species. The redirect implies that Goombas are a real species name when in fact they aren't.ZXCVBNM (
TALK) 19:54, 21 January 2018 (UTC)reply
But a redirect doesn't have to be informative so much as helpful, no? If someone searches for "goomba species", with or without the word "fictional", isn't it good that that person will be led to the right article—which will dispel the false notion if the user had been under the impression that they're a real species?
Largoplazo (
talk) 20:08, 21 January 2018 (UTC)reply
"(species)" simply implies a species. That's it. Nowhere does it imply "real species". It would have to be "(real species)", or similar, for it to imply a real species. --
Tavix(
talk) 20:19, 21 January 2018 (UTC)reply
To be clear, I would disagree with it in the title of the article. If the actual article were to be disambiguated, I'd expect the disambiguator to be "(fictional species)". For a redirect, though, it seems immaterial to me. In fact, if the article were titled "Goomba (fictional species)", I'd still be happy with a redirect to it titled "Goomba (species)".

Pichpich:@

I'd very much like for this to be separated since the plausibility varies a lot. This was the actual hairstyle of many historical Nazi officers, as is mentioned at
Undercut_(hairstyle)#Origins. Something like '
Hitler Youth (haircut)' is a hell of a lot more connected than the generic '
Hipster haircut', which is so vague that it could mean a number of different hairstyles.
CoffeeWithMarkets (

I bundled them together because they all seem almost equally pointless, were created by the same users and link to the same article. But I'm not opposed to separate them in different discussions. I also did made a notification to this discussion at the other discussion page.
Numbers 2-5 could just as well point to at least a dozen of different articles. The rest look like inventions by User Osama, like Richard Spencer haircut which speaks for itself. --
Dekacarandaebonelm (

This, one of the sources mentioned in the article, says that his haircut is fondly if ironically referred to by many wearers as a “fashy.” If a reader of that
Washington Post article were to look for the corresponding Wikipedia article, it isn't clear they should search for "undercut" rather than "fashy". Same thing with a number of other sources used (
Esquire, for example): they call it "fashy", not "undercut". I'm not suggesting Wikipedia's article be renamed, but given how the reliable sources uses the terms, at least keeping redirects like #2 or #8 seems appropriate.

Delete 3-5. While this is associated with hipsters before the alt-right, it's not 1:1 enough for a redirect. The other terms all get coverage in reliable sources as alternative names for this haircut. For example

on members of
Category:Unsynchronized disambiguation talk pages. Now, the edit to deactivate the redirect by sandwiching it within the RfD template code should have removed the page from this category so that my bot wouldn't have processed it. However, since a null edit wasn't subsequently made to
FHSH and the "job queue" hadn't caught up to this either... "gotcha!" In any event, this was the first time this scenario has happened, in a process that's been running smoothly for over a year and a half (though I only recently automated the frequency of processing to daily by converting it from AWB to PHP), and since it's easily resolved by reverting the bot, which will have taken care of purging the page, I'm not taking any special measures to fix it. Admit I never considered that redirects so trivial that a bot processes them would come up for discussion here.
