Suggesting deletion; these redirects point to a nonexistent section that failed this talk page proposal. While the creator is indef blocked/banned, none of their listed sockpuppets were blocked when this redirect was created, so speedy deletion criteria G5 doesn't apply. – Sonicwave talk 00:04, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Weak retarget WP:GOTPAID to Wikipedia:Paid-editing disclosure. Seems to be a better option while retaining plausibility. Geolodus ( talk) 05:42, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete both - in two years neither of these redirects have accumulated any incoming links at all. Delete without prejudice against recreation if someone has a better idea for a target for these shortcuts. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 22:17, 31 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Kate Donnelly

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 keep. -- BDD ( talk) 19:48, 10 September 2019 (UTC) reply

This redirect needs to be deleted for the following reasons: The last name of the individual is de Remero, and Donnelly is vastly different from that, which causes confusion; Kate de Remero is not called Kate Donnelly at all anymore and it causes confusion; and also the presence of the redirect article makes it more difficult to find the actual Kate de Remero that people will look for. 108.51.195.71 ( talk) 23:35, 29 August 2019

Fixed errors with the nomination – Sonicwave talk 23:50, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Keep – I had suggested on the nominator's talk page for them to come here after they placed an incorrect {{ Proposed deletion}} template on the redirect; however I'm inclined to keep this since the article was at this title for more than 10 years before being moved recently. The target page shows "Kathleen Donnelly" as her birth name so this would also be a plausible search term. – Sonicwave talk 00:17, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply


Delete:


I strongly advise that the Kate Donnelly Redirect Page be deleted for the following reasons: Since there are many other Kate Donnelly's in the world and Kate de Remero does not go by Kate Donnelly anymore, I think the presence of the redirect page makes for extra confusion; since, as noted, she uses the last name De Remero, it makes her description much more complicated and difficult to understand; the presence of the redirect article makes it more difficult to find the actual Kate de Remero that people will look for; and because it is noted on the Kate De Remero page that she was born as Kathleen Donnelly, making it even more confusing to add in the Kate Donnelly.

Thank you so much for your time and I pray that this redirect page will be deleted. 108.51.195.71 ( talk) 14:45, 1 September 2019 (UTC) reply



Delete: Kate De Remero is known as Dona Kate and also Kate Remero; she was born as Kathleen Donnelly. With all of these names, it is extremely confusing to have the existence of the Kate Donnelly redirect page. 108.51.195.71 ( talk) 01:55, 2 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Suggesting deletion – I considered retargeting this broken section redirect to Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions#Arguments to the person, but the typo (BADFAITHONOM) might make this unlikely to be used. – Sonicwave talk 22:58, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Delete. Worthless with the typo, and not helpful even without it: I don't find any such redirect as WP:BADFAITHNOM. -- MelanieN ( talk) 23:30, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Implausible misspelling (note the final apostrophe). gnu 57 19:31, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Weak delete: The apostrophe could plausibly be added by someone accidentally bumping it when hitting Enter; however "Tiffin boys" would probably be more accurate as a search term. It looks like this redirect was created from an erroneous page move in 2004 that was corrected a minute later. Note that stats show 45 views since July 2015. – Sonicwave talk 01:17, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete as Tiffin boys school already exists for search purposes. If someone wants to add Tiffin boy's school or Tiffin boys' school that would be considered separate, but not boy with single apostrophe. It's not some kind of stylization either.

Nothing about nominators is mentioned in the current target. When I found this redirect, I expected that it would lead to Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions#Arguments to the person, where the fallacy of arguing against the nominator is described in detail. ComplexRational ( talk) 17:39, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Support retargeting to the above suggested target. "Nominator" is something that's only applicable in certain Wikipedia processes (such as this one), while Wikipedia:No personal attacks refers to all of Wikipedia. – Sonicwave talk 22:50, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Very stable genius

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 retarget to Stable Genius Act. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 ( talk) 18:27, 19 September 2019 (UTC) reply

This phrase, which refers to Trump's description of himself in a January 2018 tweet, isn't mentioned in the target and doesn't appear to have ever been. The only articles where the phrase is mentioned in the body are Dump Trump (statue) and Fire and Fury; the latter might be a viable target, as might Stable Genius Act, though that article doesn't use the precise phrase. We could find somewhere to add a mention, but I don't think deleting these would be a great loss to the encyclopaedia. –  Arms & Hearts ( talk) 17:38, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Redirects are cheap, and we can assume that some non-zero number of readers are going to want to search on this phrase, and probably will decades from now. If they do search on the phase, the current target seems the best of some poor choices.
The fact that Donald Trump on social media is broken and doesn't contain any info about the term is a fault of that article, not of the redirect.
In fact this phrase should have its own article. I have seen it used scores of times in various contexts, in highly notable publications, and it continues to be so and probably will be for years. Because of this, an article of several paragraphs could easily be constructed. There's no question that people studying this highly important period of American history will coming across this quote and be be looking to find out more about it decades and probably centuries from now.
To give these people nothing beyond a "not found" error message is not helpful to the reader. However, any attempt to make a proper article where the reader can be pointed to the original tweet, various examples of it being invoked, some analysis perhaps of the context (it was in response to someone's earlier statement I believe) and so on is out of the question -- I've tried stuff like this, and the deletionists won't have it, period.
I can't help that, but there's no need to make the situation worse by destroying even redirects to where there at any rate should be useful information is not helpful to the reader. Herostratus ( talk) 18:10, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
Retarget to Stable Genius Act. This can serve as the redirect for any "stable genius" phrases. Luckovich's book can be added as a media response. It looks like the Stable Genius Act was created in response to the Trump tweets so "very stable genius" would be appropriate as background. [2] The article should also have a section for reaction to the phrase, as well as redirecting Stable Genius and STABLE GENIUS Act. AngusWOOF ( bark • sniff) 17:46, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Keep and retarget. This is something he has said often, both in person and on social media. For example, [3] January 6, 2018 [4] May 23, 2019 [5] July 11, 2019. It is virtually a catchphrase of his. It gets over a million hits on Google. However, the target is wrong. He actually says this more in person than he does on social media. This should redirect to Stable Genius Act. If the article does not explain the origin of the title, I will rectify that. -- MelanieN ( talk) 21:03, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
Actually, the article Stable Genius Act does use that very phrase. Right there in the lead. I will add additional examples. -- MelanieN ( talk) 21:32, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
There is now a paragraph on the subject at Stable Genius Act. -- MelanieN ( talk) 20:36, 31 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Commonly used phrase, not specific to the terminator film. Either delete or perhaps retarget to Missing person. gnu 57 16:34, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Retarget to missing person. Although there is a meme that features it in the context of Terminator 2, it's not a huge catchphrase like " Hasta la vista, baby", and there are plenty of news articles that just refer to missing person in general.

While reviewing the discussions below (The Real Ronaldo, White boy music) I came across these other questionable creations by the same user. Reviewing, but probably leaning delete unless there's any evidence of use. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 15:28, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • After reviewing: I removed one which was obviously a misread on my part. Of the remaining, the only one where I could find any evidence of use is Professor Hoofenstein, and it does appear that it refers to the targeted article although this player's supposed nickname is not mentioned there; redirect has 3 hits this year. Chappy Ferrer and Robbie D are both ambiguous: Google suggests this could refer to any of several people with no primary usage implied, and these names are not included in the target articles; also 41 and 32 hits respectively this year. Page view stats are similar for the rest. The Phil Lynott redirect is a copyvio if it's lyrics (as implied by the creation edit summary), but I could not find evidence that it means anything at all. Delete all. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 15:39, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete all Per nom. gnu 57 15:53, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Retarget ATWAS to All the world's a stage as it applies to that title more so than the albums or other pieces. There's a non-notable school in Michigan named ATWAS. Delete cheese sondwich. Searches point to cheese sandwich right away as a typo, and the word isn't hard to spell. Professor Hoofenstein has some mention in fan blogs, but need more news articles to affirm it to be an official nickname. Delete Frankie Lamps as I'm getting a number of Frankie brand table lamps that don't seem to be pointing to any single notable organization.

Created after a semi-coherent request at WP:HD. It is either an implausible typo or, well, something else entirely: NSFW text link.

There is an actual word "bate" meaning "to restrain", "to deprive of", etc. So it's extremely plausible that someone who just heard the phrase would assume "bate" to be the correct word and the correct spelling. After all "To deprive of and then switch" or "To restrain and then switch" are both entirely plausible, useful phrases. 98.156.242.137 ( talk) 14:14, 3 September 2019 (UTC) reply

"Bali boy" was created as a redirect to "Gigolo" in 2010 by one sockpuppetteer, and retargetted to "Lucas" in 2013 by another, who also created "Bali beach boy" as another "Lucas" redirect. I did find this source [7] to justify retargetting to "Male prostitution", but the term has seen more use as a news moniker for two different minors accused of delinquency in Bali, e.g., [8] [9] [10]. I propose deletion of both as unlikely and misleading redirects. gnu 57 02:41, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

This redirect needs to be deleted for the following reasons: The last name of the individual is de Remero, and Donnelly is vastly different from that, which causes confusion; Kate de Remero is not called Kate Donnelly at all anymore and it causes confusion; and also the presence of the redirect article makes it more difficult to find the actual Kate de Remero that people will look for. 108.51.195.71 ( talk) 23:35, 29 August 2019

  • Keep – I had suggested on the nominator's talk page for them to come here after they placed an incorrect {{ Proposed deletion}} template on the redirect; however I'm inclined to keep this since the article was at this title for more than 10 years before being moved recently. The target page shows "Kathleen Donnelly" as her birth name so this would also be a plausible search term. – Sonicwave talk 00:17, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply


Delete:


I strongly advise that the Kate Donnelly Redirect Page be deleted for the following reasons: Since there are many other Kate Donnelly's in the world and Kate de Remero does not go by Kate Donnelly anymore, I think the presence of the redirect page makes for extra confusion; since, as noted, she uses the last name De Remero, it makes her description much more complicated and difficult to understand; the presence of the redirect article makes it more difficult to find the actual Kate de Remero that people will look for; and because it is noted on the Kate De Remero page that she was born as Kathleen Donnelly, making it even more confusing to add in the Kate Donnelly.

Thank you so much for your time and I pray that this redirect page will be deleted. 108.51.195.71 ( talk) 14:45, 1 September 2019 (UTC) reply



Delete: Kate De Remero is known as Dona Kate and also Kate Remero; she was born as Kathleen Donnelly. With all of these names, it is extremely confusing to have the existence of the Kate Donnelly redirect page. 108.51.195.71 ( talk) 01:55, 2 September 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Weak delete: The apostrophe could plausibly be added by someone accidentally bumping it when hitting Enter; however "Tiffin boys" would probably be more accurate as a search term.

The result of the discussion was retarget to Stable Genius Act. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 ( talk) 18:27, 19 September 2019 (UTC) reply

This phrase, which refers to Trump's description of himself in a January 2018 tweet, isn't mentioned in the target and doesn't appear to have ever been. The only articles where the phrase is mentioned in the body are Dump Trump (statue) and Fire and Fury; the latter might be a viable target, as might Stable Genius Act, though that article doesn't use the precise phrase. We could find somewhere to add a mention, but I don't think deleting these would be a great loss to the encyclopaedia. –  Arms & Hearts ( talk) 17:38, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Redirects are cheap, and we can assume that some non-zero number of readers are going to want to search on this phrase, and probably will decades from now. If they do search on the phase, the current target seems the best of some poor choices.
The fact that Donald Trump on social media is broken and doesn't contain any info about the term is a fault of that article, not of the redirect.
In fact this phrase should have its own article. I have seen it used scores of times in various contexts, in highly notable publications, and it continues to be so and probably will be for years. Because of this, an article of several paragraphs could easily be constructed. There's no question that people studying this highly important period of American history will coming across this quote and be be looking to find out more about it decades and probably centuries from now.
To give these people nothing beyond a "not found" error message is not helpful to the reader. However, any attempt to make a proper article where the reader can be pointed to the original tweet, various examples of it being invoked, some analysis perhaps of the context (it was in response to someone's earlier statement I believe) and so on is out of the question -- I've tried stuff like this, and the deletionists won't have it, period.
I can't help that, but there's no need to make the situation worse by destroying even redirects to where there at any rate should be useful information is not helpful to the reader. Herostratus ( talk) 18:10, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
Retarget to Stable Genius Act. This can serve as the redirect for any "stable genius" phrases. Luckovich's book can be added as a media response. It looks like the Stable Genius Act was created in response to the Trump tweets so "very stable genius" would be appropriate as background. [2] The article should also have a section for reaction to the phrase, as well as redirecting Stable Genius and STABLE GENIUS Act. AngusWOOF ( bark • sniff) 17:46, 30 August 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Keep and retarget. This is something he has said often, both in person and on social media. For example, [3] January 6, 2018 [4] May 23, 2019 [5] July 11, 2019. It is virtually a catchphrase of his. It gets over a million hits on Google. However, the target is wrong. He actually says this more in person than he does on social media. This should redirect to Stable Genius Act. If the article does not explain the origin of the title, I will rectify that. -- MelanieN ( talk) 21:03, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Of the remaining, the only one where I could find any evidence of use is Professor Hoofenstein, and it does appear that it refers to the targeted article although this player's supposed nickname is not mentioned there; redirect has 3 hits this year. Chappy Ferrer and Robbie D are both ambiguous: Google suggests this could refer to any of several people with no primary usage implied, and these names are not included in the target articles; also 41 and 32 hits respectively this year.

The result of the discussion was retarget to Bait-and-switch. Consensus is clear that this is plausible and should be kept; this retarget is solely to avoid a double redirect as pointed out. (non-admin closure) ComplexRational ( talk) 18:37, 5 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Created after a semi-coherent request at WP:HD. It is either an implausible typo or, well, something else entirely: NSFW text link. In the latter case, I do not think it can be turned into an article ( WP:NOTDICTIONARY and lack of RS, at a first glance). Tigraan Click here to contact me 13:16, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Clearly not an implausible typo – as well as the instance at WP:HD that you pointed out, Google turns up 17,600 results for "bate and switch" excluding "bait". –  Arms & Hearts ( talk) 13:30, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep - It's not even necessarily a misspelling. There is an actual word "bate" meaning "to restrain", "to deprive of", etc. So it's extremely plausible that someone who just heard the phrase would assume "bate" to be the correct word and the correct spelling. After all "To deprive of and then switch" or "To restrain and then switch" are both entirely plausible, useful phrases. 98.156.242.137 ( talk) 14:14, 3 September 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Weak retarget - surprisingly suitable as an unambiguous redirect to White Boy (album), which also has the benefit of discouraging this sort of vandalism in the future.

The result of the discussion was speedy delete per criterion G3 (pure vandalism) although G5 (block evasion) would also apply. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 12:13, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply

"Bali boy" was created as a redirect to "Gigolo" in 2010 by one sockpuppetteer, and retargetted to "Lucas" in 2013 by another, who also created "Bali beach boy" as another "Lucas" redirect. I did find this source [7] to justify retargetting to "Male prostitution", but the term has seen more use as a news moniker for two different minors accused of delinquency in Bali, e.g., [8] [9] [10]. I propose deletion of both as unlikely and misleading redirects. gnu 57 02:41, 29 August 2019 (UTC) reply
