We already had a discussion about these useless abbreviation redirects in
2015 but apparently its not enough to get this one deleted without discussion. No one except Swift fans would find this redirect useful, not a commonly used abbr.

Delete due to the implausible formatting. If unscrambled, it becomes
King Juan Carlos I de Borbón which no one has found useful enough to create to date. --

- Delete per nom. Unlikely search terms and no significant usage. They may be quite old but it doesn't necessarily follow that they have ever been linked from mainspace.

this redirect is just wrong. Adnan Haidar is a 29-year old Norwegian footballer. Adnan Haydar (referred to in the article [Paula Haydar]) appears to be an American academic old enough to have a grown up son, so not the same person.

- I agree, Adnan Haydar doesn't seem to be used to refer to the footballer.

- Delete. There is certainly potential for confusion because of the academic Adnan Haydar who exists, has several mentions, but who doesn't have an article. Delete to leave a redlink would enable Search to do its job and avoid confusion.

- Comment How can you justify describing it as a "valid alternative spelling"? Adnan Haidar is Norwegian and that is consistenly the spelling of his name in our alphabet.
SamuelTheGhost (
talk) 12:36, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
reply
- Keep per GiantSnowman, though I might say "plausible misspelling" rather than suggesting the Haydar spelling is correct. Obviously, don't link the name from other articles if the academic is intended, and if an article is ever written on the academic, it can be at this title. --
BDD (
talk) 16:07, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
reply
- Comment "plausible misspelling" is right, but the redirect is not particularly useful or necessary, as Adnan Haidar's name is offered when you type "Adnan Ha" or even just "Adnan H" in the search box.
SamuelTheGhost (
talk) 22:07, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
reply
- That's just one way readers find articles, though. Many could copy and paste whole search terms into the search box or directly enter URLs, for example. Consider this: so long as we have no article on the academic, readers looking for the academic will be disappointed regardless of what happens with this redirect. Keeping it allows us to better satisfy those who are looking for the footballer. --

- Keep. This individual is an Arab with an Arabic name. There's plenty of precedent for spelling variants of Arabic names, especially since Arabic uses an
abjad without normal vowels. Yes, his name is written in Latin now, but "Haydar" is not the only way to spell this name. Look at
Hyder Ali, for example, a Muslim Indian with an Arabic name: some sources call him "Hyder", some "Haidar", and probably some "Haydar". Or look at
Haydar and see all the other spelling variants. There simply is no standard way to spell this name in English, so even though this particular person's name has a single correct spelling, it's quite likely that someone could look for him under a different spelling of this name.

- Keep - This spelling difference is a very easy confusion to make. If an article about the academic is ever created then this redirect can be deleted to make way.—

Too vague. There are other giant chickens in fiction and I would have expected a redirect to
Jersey Giant instead. I don't think a dab page is justified however. —

- Retarget to
Jersey Giant. I couldn't find any other "giant" breeds at
List of chicken breeds, and the capitalization of this redirect is a poor fit for a specific character.
The Giant Chicken points to the character, which is probably fine; I just created
Giant Chicken (Family Guy). --
BDD (

- Delete. Our article describes the
Jersey Giant as being among the heaviest breeds, and that implies there are other breeds that are just as heavy (and large); the internet for example tells me that the
Brahma chicken and the
Cochin chicken are pretty big too. I don't see any reason to single out this breed among the others, and there doesn't appear to be any suitable target as there doesn't seem to be any place on wikipedia that discusses the size of chicken. –

The phrase "Fiji Urdu" is some wikipedian's invention. There's no variety of Urdu that is specific to Fiji, there's no evidence of Urdu being natively spoken there at all. This started out as an article about Urdu being taught in schools in Fiji, but it was unsourced, there don't appear to be any sources out there at all, and even if there were, the title of such an article would rather be
Urdu in Fiji. –
Uanfala (talk) 21:08, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
reply
- (Weak) keep: Urdu is listed in the article, btw. But Urdu-Hindi is rather like Serbo-Croat: the answer to linguistic questions ends up depending on the respondent's religion. Someone who remembers that Fiji uses the north-Indian language family might well forget whether it was Urdu or Hindi, so the redirect could well be helpful. And it is not confusing unrelated languages, so what's the harm?
Imaginatorium (
talk) 05:11, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
reply
- Ah my bad: I had overlooked that the article mentions that there were several hundred households who reported speaking Urdu in the 1966 census. Still, there's no Fijian variety of Urdu as far as I'm aware, and the Fiji Hindi spoken there is Hindi in name only (and so it's not particularly close to Urdu, the way Hindi is). I see your point about the redirect being helpful as an {{
R from misnomer}}, but I don't think this makes it plausible as the logic can be applied to any of the dozens of major languages of Northern India, ending up redirects like
Fiji Bengali,
Fiji Magahi, etc. –
Uanfala (talk) 18:27, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
reply
- Keep. Bengali, Magahi, etc. are not the same as Hindi in any sense, but Urdu and Hindi are basically the same when spoken.

"One (Romania)" could mean anything related to various meanings of the word "one" in relation to Romania; the association with NUTS is so weak that the redirect is counterproductive
