- Keep: only because I edited to add mention in the target. It's a french climbing term (
fr:Mouvements d'escalade). I did my best to add the definition to the French term with interwiki links. I might have gotten it wrong, so please update/edit/fix.

- Interesting question. I know a only a tiny bit about climbing terms, but from what I do know, many of them are French or come from French. I'm not sure how much lolotte is universal, or just French. From the other definitions, it does seem similar to 'dropknee'/'Egyptian'. But I'm not knowledgeable enough to say if they're related or synonyms.

- Followup: Wikipedia is not Wiktionary, but a brief definition/statement of a term is absolutely acceptable in a Glossary / 'List of terms' article. It should definitely be in Wiktionary as well.

- Okay, but FG seasons 1–6, 8–19 don't exist as spelled-out redirects. Only season 7/seven. Should we create the other 18 spelled-out pages? Seems kinda weird and pointless, when search engines are relatively smart enough to complete the "sixteen -> 16", etc., translations. Why is "seven" special?
sbb (
talk) 22:57, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
reply
- I'm not necessarily saying that "seven" is special or that we should create the other pages, I'm just saying that this redirect isn't really in the way of anything, like with a lot of other such "(season [spelled-out number]) redirects. About such search engines (e.g., Google), Wikipedia's search engine doesn't seem to have the same capabilities, but again, I'm not really arguing that we should create the other eighteen spelled-out Family Guy season redirects (or that "seven" is special).

I don't know how plausible this redirect is, since
Untied Kingdom general election doesn't exist. The redirect page only has
147 pageviews for 5 years, while "
Next United Kingdom general election" has over
4 million pageviews. Also, I don't know if we should retarget to the correct target because it's not enough to justify the redirect.

- Delete useless as a redirect since no-one is ever going to be searching for this album in the Wikipedia talk namespace. This could probably be G8'd as a talk page with no existing subject page. There is a misplaced draft in the page history, but since it was last edited in 2009 it would qualify for G13 deletion if moved into the draft namespace. The draft is entirely unsourced (and the article this used to target was sourced only to discogs) so if restored and moved to article space this version of the article may qualify for A9 deletion as well.

I think people searching for these are more likley to be looking for an article on cake tins than an article on a stadium that was nicknamed "
The Cake Tin" due to it's resemblance to one. Any search I do indicates that the cookware is the primary meaning of this phrase, but I'm unsure where to target these.
Cookware and bakeware gives a general overview of the topic, especially in the
Cookware and bakeware#Bakeware section, but there's also the spun out
Mold (cooking implement) article, which could be a reasonable target

- Set indexify with
Simple random sample,
Systematic random sample,
Stratified random sample,
Cluster random sample, and probably others. As a quicker solution, could instead target both to
Sample (statistics) (yes, apparently that is a separate article from
Sampling (statistics)), but I don't think that article really articulates the differences and searchers probably are seeking something more specific anyway. Unfortunately the relevant articles do not follow a consistent title format, with some including "sample" and others including "sampling" but that's an issue for requested moves.
