• British King who abdicated → Edward VIII  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Delete since Edward II and Richard II both abdicated too, and they are all from England that can be called "Britain" casually. No comment on the Kings' reign, NotReallySoroka ( talk) (formerly DePlume) 23:31, 20 April 2021 (UTC) reply

• Keep I don't remember creating this, but I presume I did so because I was using this search term to try and find Edward VIII when not being able to remember their name (or someone else mentioned doing so). Neither Richard II nor Edward II were British kings, and their abdication is not the most notable feature of their reign meaning that even if we regard this search term as actually (rather than just theoretically) ambiguous, Edward VIII is clearly the primary topic. Googling for the term (without quotes but excluding Wikipedia) backs that up - every single result on the first 4 pages is about Edward VIII as are all but the second last on page 5 and all but the 3rd and 6th results on page 6. Repeating the search with quotes and again excluding Wikipedia Google shows me 80 results, all 80 of which are about Edward VIII (although one did suggest he abdicated in 1894, actually the year of his birth). I've not found any other evidence of people referring to either of the monarchs of England by this term either, so see no justification for deletion. Thryduulf ( talk) 00:07, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete, this is not the kind of redirect we should be encouraging. James II and VII was effectively a British king who abdicated (he's listed at List of monarchs who abdicated and List of English monarchs mentions that by royal proclamation, James styled himself "King of Great Britain".) -- Tavix ^{( talk)} 00:26, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

  Why should we not be encouraging redirects from search terms people (59 last year for example) use to find Wikipedia articles? If people are using this term to refer to multiple monarchs then it should be redirected to a list or become a disambiguation page, however all the evidence shows that there is only one person people who use this are likely to be looking for so, at most, a hatnote is justified. There is absolutely no justification for deletion here. Thryduulf ( talk) 00:37, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

• Delete as an unambiguously question-like redirect which is not helpful - WP:PANDORA - and which, per the above, is an inaccurate recentism. Ignoring the redirect, a user who input the string into the search function would end up with links to pages like Abdication of Edward VIII; List of monarchs who abdicated and List of monarchs who lost their thrones in the 20th century ( [1]), so this doesn't help anyway... RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 01:51, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

  It is, as you correctly note, unambiguous in practice (per all the evidence I presented above) and so demonstrably helpful. WP:PANDORA is nonsense bordering on harmful misinformation (redirects are judged only on their own merits, the existence or non-existence of one redirect implies nothing about the suitability of another - see WP:OTHERSTUFF). Search results are always inferior to a direct link as they are not predictable and, depending on the method and device used to navigate and their account status, may be multiple clicks away from where a user arrives after using the search term. Thryduulf ( talk) 02:17, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

  You must have misunderstood what I meant per "unambiguous". Fixed. And having a question (which this basically is) as a redirect is not helpful. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 02:28, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

  Why' is having such redirects unhelpful when they demonstrably help people find the article they are looking for? {{ R from search term}} exists and explicitly covers redirects from related words or phrases. Simply being "question-like" (and this is not unambiguously so) is not a reason to delete a redirect. Thryduulf ( talk) 02:37, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

  I, regrettably, disagree with your liberal stance on such terms. A sea of search words are not helpful and not normal (do we redirect Atlanta Braves Opening Day Starter, 2021 to Max Fried)? We are not a search engine, NotReallySoroka ( talk) (formerly DePlume) 02:50, 21 April 2021 (UTC) reply

Delete this improbable portion of a name - for example, searching for Tecumseh Sherman but excluding "William Tecumseh Sherman" will mostly yield results for "Wm.

Examples of use from a cursory search include [2] [3] [4] [5]. You'd be hard pressed to find any reference of William Tecumseh Sherman Fitch III as "Tecumseh Sherman".

• Just to give some history: This redirect goes back a long way... there was a time back in the mid 2000s when we talked about articles having a “name”. This caused a lot of confusion because people were not sure whether we were referring to the name of the subject or the “name” of of the article (not always the same). We realized that we needed to separate these two concepts better, by shifting terminology... we decided to stop talking about an article’s NAME, and instead talk about an article’s TITLE.

So... we changed our WP:Naming conventions guideline (which mostly talked about how to “name” an article) to WP:Article titles (which was soon promoted to Policy status).

However, there were a few parts of the old WP:Naming conventions guideline that dealt with how to present the subject’s name beyond an article title, (such as whether to present nicknames in quotes or parentheses). These were primarily STYLE issues, so we hived these bits off, and created a separate MOS:Naming convention guideline to deal with these issues.

Hope this history helps clarify why the various policies and guidelines are (currently) entitled as they are, why the various redirects exist, and why they (currently) point where they do.

@ Blueboar This makes sense to me, though I am still not sure if the target is really about "naming".

"there are 3 Toms in class" takes the plural for "Tom", a given name. Thus the given name and surname "Chee" can use "Chees" as plural. -- 67.70.27.246 ( talk) 08:56, 12 April 2021 (UTC) reply

    Yes, but Chee just has links for Chee (surname) or Chee (given name), rather than a list of names that could be plural. I guess searchers could be seeking a list of people with the name, which would be plural because there are multiple such people with articles. In such a case it seems like a pretty week search term if that's what was really being sought, which seems unlikely, and will bring the searcher to a dab page where none of the entries can be plural and they still have to choose given name or surname. So search results seem better here to me, given the potential that it could just be a typo as discussed above. There seems to be no consistent way to handle plurals of names. For example Nicks targets Nix (surname) rather than Nick or Nick (disambiguation) (though there is a hatnote). Joneses targets The Joneses and not Jones or any of its entries. (These could probably benefit from RfDs too, as I'm not sure their current targets are best.) Mdewman6 ( talk) 01:39, 14 April 2021 (UTC) reply

However, collectively there's enough for a dab page even under the narrower understanding of what counts as a "correct" entry, and the dab page is a clear improvement over the search results, which in this case are almost useless. – Uanfala (talk) 16:23, 12 May 2021 (UTC) reply

The answer to that is simply. Yes. The terms are related and it's slang that originates in the Washington DC and Maryland area.

This is clearly on odd situation, in that we have three different meanings, but only one of them is actually mentioned in an article.

• Make a disambiguation page. Considering "glizzy" could refer to 3 equally applicable things at once, it's not really viable to handpick one over the other.

If it's kept, it should stay pointing to asphalt concrete or maybe redirect to sealcoat. Looking at how it's used, it seems to be more about sealcoats, chipseals, and/or tackcoats than about asphalt concrete, but pointing to just asphalt would be going too far back up the production chain and tar is the wrong product.

• Leaning keep.

Page history –has been a primary-redirect to New Taiwan dollar for nearly 15 years, vs. a disambiguation for less than 3 years:

• TWD created on 7 December 2003‎ as a redirect to New Taiwan dollar – for 3 years, 4 months
• Converted to a disambiguation on 14 April 2007 – for 2 years, 8 months
• reestablished as primary-topic redirect on 3 January 2010 by copy-paste, which I have history-merged (redirect to New Taiwan dollar) – for 11 years, 3 months

3-letter currency codes for major currencies are common primary-redirects: AUD, CNY, GBP, JPY, NZD, USD – but not always: CAD, KRW

Only 7 pages link to TWD, which is not a big deal, but it's a matter of convenience for editors:

Example: Taipei Dome infobox: cost = $37 billion TWD

New Taiwan dollar has the most long-term significance, which is one of the two major WP:PTOPIC criteria (the other being usage, i.e. page views)

The Walking Dead is itself an ambiguous term.

I searched The Walking Dead (franchise) for "TWD" and came up empty. The logo doesn't use this acronym. The Walking Dead (comic book) only uses "TWD" as a code in the tables of collected editions. The Walking Dead (TV series) just uses "TWD" twice, deep into the article. – wbm1058 ( talk) 15:15, 20 April 2021 (UTC) reply

• Keep as is, primary topic, and the currency is by far the most likely entry in TWD (disambiguation) to be linked. — Kusma ( 𐍄· 𐌺) 15:43, 20 April 2021 (UTC) reply

• Pseudoscience in Pakistan → Superstition in Pakistan  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Non-neutral redirect. Pseudoscience is not discussed at the target, and frustrates users looking for, say, Pervez Hoodbhoy. This is the only redirect beginning with Pseudoscience in. – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 01:02, 20 April 2021 (UTC) reply

Without regards to its content, I say delete, failing which re-target to Pervez Hoodbhoy. Per nom and the fact that P in P is a work of Hoodbhoy's. Deletion is still my first choice, NotReallySoroka ( talk) (formerly DePlume) 02:00, 20 April 2021 (UTC) reply
