  • Delete the list of portals; not particularly helpful. Keep the others, as they have extremely old history. The really long one title is essentially an early form of a portal, with history dating back to 2003. And the complete list has been a bluelink since 2001; the only reason you don't see edits dating back to then is that (per its history's first edit summary) it was moved to a different title in 2003. See nost:Complete list of encyclopedia topics for proof. Unless it's outright harmful, deleting anything that's been a blue link since 2003 is a bad idea (except for a temporary deletion, e.g. a histmerge), and deleting something with history since 2001 is a terrible idea.

WP:DIFFCAPS. Acquired by Cap Gemini (as was) in 2007. The article does mention it, but only in passing. Twelve years later, I think it more likely that people would want Software architect, to which Software Architect and Software architects redirect, but am not sure enough to retarget it boldly. Software architect is being discussed as a move request to 'Software designer'. 178.164.162.144 ( talk) 17:46, 12 February 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Close without action and reopen once a decision has been reached on the RM. If it stays at the current title, I'd be inclined to retarget, while if it's moved, I'd be inclined to disambiguate, but it might well be best to get further discussion.

Car in question doesn't actually exist; there is no L-body Plymouth Duster, as far as I can tell. Nothing links to this redirect page, and as the car in question doesn't exist, it's an oddly specific string of words to search. I move to delete this redirect.

The result of the discussion was speedy keep. -- Bsherr ( talk) 23:44, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply

This page was only preserved for its history, but the history does not seem worthwhile to preserve or necessary for attribution. Suggest deleting. Bsherr ( talk) 21:13, 12 February 2019 (UTC) reply

The benefit is: these redirects pollute Special:AllPages results (where there is no way to suppress redirects) and the Wikipedia searchbox. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 05:48, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply
Having a page with some significance listed at Special:AllPages is a Good Thing - the only people looking at that are interested in having a list of all pages, including ones that some people don't like and ones that are kept for their history. The "pollution" of the search box is extremely trivial given that it only affects some users and if someone does click on it their either (a) looking for the target page and so the redirect has helped them, or (b) curious about it in which case the redirect has neither helped nor hindered. Thryduulf ( talk) 12:46, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply
I disagree on both counts: I for one use Special:AllPages to look only for pages that are relevant, and do not want these to appear. And because the search box only displays ten suggestions, any pollution that pushes more relevant results into result 11 or higher is detrimental to the user. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 13:12, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply
What is "relevant" depends entirely on what the individual is looking for and special:Allpages is the wrong tool to use to find subsets of pages - when I use it I explicitly want to see absolutely every result ( special:Prefixindex allows for hiding of redirects for example). The same is true of search suggestions - just because you don't think this result is relevant doesn't mean that is true of everybody. Thryduulf ( talk) 13:29, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply

  • @ Bsherr: Nyttend has it spot on. Deleting page titles that have existed for a long time will break countless links from old revisions, external sites, bookmarks, etc - the longer a page has existed the greater the likelihood of causing serious issues - we strive to be good internet citizens and one of the best ways we can do that is by not creating unnecessary linkrot. This is even more important in cases like this when the only benefits from deletion will be (at best) trivial or (most likely) none existent. Thryduulf ( talk) 13:53, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    I think you must be mistaken. This page only has six links, and was created in 2007 as a result of a page move. -- Bsherr ( talk) 15:22, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    And no redirects to it. -- Bsherr ( talk) 15:42, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    2007 is 12 years ago, and what links here shows only links from current revisions of pages on en.wp, it does not (and cannot) show links from elsewhere. Thryduulf ( talk) 17:03, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    @ Thryduulf: What I'm trying to say is that this page was moved basically to bury it. Who would bother to direct link to this obscure subpage? All of the outside links probably point to the original page. And if so, the real solution is to move this page. Does that make sense? -- Bsherr ( talk) 17:25, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    No! Once again, you can't see links in old versions of page histories, let alone links from off-wiki sites. You're trying to delete a harmless page with page history going back to the first two months of the project, and the title has been around for well more than a decade. It's harmless in its current location, and off-wiki studies of Wikipedia may have linked to it merely because it's so old, and yet you want to turn it red and create linkrot. Nyttend ( talk) 22:33, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Regardless, I'm informed that the history merge is not technically feasible until we locate the missing revisions because of the quantity of revisions to Help:Editing. So this page must not be deleted for now for attribution. @ UnitedStatesian: if you concur, we can close as speedy keep. -- Bsherr ( talk) 22:56, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    Yes, I'm 100% fine with that, you are the nominator. And thanks for the ping. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 22:59, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply

WP:DIFFCAPS. Acquired by Cap Gemini (as was) in 2007. The article does mention it, but only in passing. Twelve years later, I think it more likely that people would want Software architect, to which Software Architect and Software architects redirect, but am not sure enough to retarget it boldly. Software architect is being discussed as a move request to 'Software designer'. 178.164.162.144 ( talk) 17:46, 12 February 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Close without action and reopen once a decision has been reached on the RM. If it stays at the current title, I'd be inclined to retarget, while if it's moved, I'd be inclined to disambiguate, but it might well be best to get further discussion.

Car in question doesn't actually exist; there is no L-body Plymouth Duster, as far as I can tell. Nothing links to this redirect page, and as the car in question doesn't exist, it's an oddly specific string of words to search. I move to delete this redirect.

The result of the discussion was speedy keep. -- Bsherr ( talk) 23:44, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply

This page was only preserved for its history, but the history does not seem worthwhile to preserve or necessary for attribution. Suggest deleting. Bsherr ( talk) 21:13, 12 February 2019 (UTC) reply

The benefit is: these redirects pollute Special:AllPages results (where there is no way to suppress redirects) and the Wikipedia searchbox. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 05:48, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply
Having a page with some significance listed at Special:AllPages is a Good Thing - the only people looking at that are interested in having a list of all pages, including ones that some people don't like and ones that are kept for their history. The "pollution" of the search box is extremely trivial given that it only affects some users and if someone does click on it their either (a) looking for the target page and so the redirect has helped them, or (b) curious about it in which case the redirect has neither helped nor hindered. Thryduulf ( talk) 12:46, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply
I disagree on both counts: I for one use Special:AllPages to look only for pages that are relevant, and do not want these to appear. And because the search box only displays ten suggestions, any pollution that pushes more relevant results into result 11 or higher is detrimental to the user. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 13:12, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply
What is "relevant" depends entirely on what the individual is looking for and special:Allpages is the wrong tool to use to find subsets of pages - when I use it I explicitly want to see absolutely every result ( special:Prefixindex allows for hiding of redirects for example). The same is true of search suggestions - just because you don't think this result is relevant doesn't mean that is true of everybody. Thryduulf ( talk) 13:29, 18 February 2019 (UTC) reply

  • @ Bsherr: Nyttend has it spot on. Deleting page titles that have existed for a long time will break countless links from old revisions, external sites, bookmarks, etc - the longer a page has existed the greater the likelihood of causing serious issues - we strive to be good internet citizens and one of the best ways we can do that is by not creating unnecessary linkrot. This is even more important in cases like this when the only benefits from deletion will be (at best) trivial or (most likely) none existent. Thryduulf ( talk) 13:53, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    I think you must be mistaken. This page only has six links, and was created in 2007 as a result of a page move. -- Bsherr ( talk) 15:22, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    And no redirects to it. -- Bsherr ( talk) 15:42, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    2007 is 12 years ago, and what links here shows only links from current revisions of pages on en.wp, it does not (and cannot) show links from elsewhere. Thryduulf ( talk) 17:03, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    @ Thryduulf: What I'm trying to say is that this page was moved basically to bury it. Who would bother to direct link to this obscure subpage? All of the outside links probably point to the original page. And if so, the real solution is to move this page. Does that make sense? -- Bsherr ( talk) 17:25, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    No! Once again, you can't see links in old versions of page histories, let alone links from off-wiki sites. You're trying to delete a harmless page with page history going back to the first two months of the project, and the title has been around for well more than a decade. It's harmless in its current location, and off-wiki studies of Wikipedia may have linked to it merely because it's so old, and yet you want to turn it red and create linkrot. Nyttend ( talk) 22:33, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Regardless, I'm informed that the history merge is not technically feasible until we locate the missing revisions because of the quantity of revisions to Help:Editing. So this page must not be deleted for now for attribution. @ UnitedStatesian: if you concur, we can close as speedy keep. -- Bsherr ( talk) 22:56, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
    Yes, I'm 100% fine with that, you are the nominator. And thanks for the ping. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 22:59, 22 February 2019 (UTC) reply
