This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on November 17, 2021.
These terms are not synonymous. A helper function is a function that does part of the computation for another function or functions. A wrapper function calls a bunch of other functions and does little else. While these types of functions interact, they don't do so in an exclusive manner, and the target provides no direct information about helper functions.

Seems like a case of WP:R#DELETE #10, in the case of Afghanistan, the target article is a single line stub about a domestic violence response organization that likely no longer exists; in the case of Spain, it's a stub article about a 2010 campaign. signed, Rosguill talk 21:57, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

Redirects from plural to singular common nouns often accumulate silly links, and this is a particularly bad example. There was a
discussion in 2008 which ended without formal closure, but kept the status quo. Readers looking for the meaning of
saint do not need this redirect; readers looking for their favourite
football,
football,
rugby or
rugby team (that is by no means an exhaustive list) are going to be baffled by this
WP:EASTEREGG; it's the sort of thing which brings Wikipedia into disrepute. Retarget to
Saint
Saint (disambiguation) as {{
R from plural}} and {{
R from ambiguous term}}.

[[saints]]

will be an improvement anyway because of the ambiguity of the term and despite
WP:NOTBROKEN. It will also be an occasion to find more specific articles to link to (the concept of a saint is a well-known one, so in most cases it probably doesn't need a link on its own). Once this is complete, we can monitor
the outgoing traffic and if it turns out that the majority of readers are interested in the article
Saint, then we'll move the dab page leaving a primary redirect. So far it appears more likely that there won't be a primary topic, so I'd support the proposal (and the work involved is also justifiable on independent grounds). –

Per WP:RNEUTRAL: The exact phrase "Myanmar People Defensive War" is not commonly used, although "[Myanmar] people's defensive war" is used by the People's Defence Forces to describe their own armed struggle. Nonetheless, this wording is not neutral and rarely used outside of the group's own publications. CentreLeftRight ✉ 16:42, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

In academic circles the phrase "Holy War" was the main descriptor, but the more neutral terms kreuzzug from German and the French croisade became established.That sounds like discussing the term to me. It's not a hugely in-depth discussion, but we don't require that. I'm also not sure how this falls under one of the "inappropriate" examples at RLOTE. -- Tamzin cetacean needed (she/they) 00:49, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
