- Debut issue → First appearance ( talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/ retarget/ delete ]
I'm not sure that the "first issue (of an American comic book) to feature a fictional character" is what most people mean by "debut issue": I would have thought it would be the first issue of a thing (comic book, periodical, newspaper...). This current redirect is therefore confusing and should be deleted. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 12:46, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. If there were an article for first issue of a publication, we could disambiguate "debut issue", but there's no such article. In the absence of any other plausible redirect target, better to redirect to the only meaning of "debut issue" that has an article than to have nothing at all. — Lowellian ( reply) 13:15, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Recently created redirect, that points to a single sentence of WP:PUBLICFIGURE out of context. Seems to have been created as part of an ongoing dispute at Wikipedia talk:Mandy Rice-Davies applies. Sideswipe9th ( talk) 22:54, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Wikipedia doesn’t currently have a dedicated policy on denials, just a one-sentence statement at
WP:BLP that already includes an anchor for easy linking. And this redirect makes the linking even easier, nothing wrong with that AFAIK. I say keep regardless of whether this redirect is used at
Wikipedia talk:Mandy Rice-Davies applies or not.

- I don't agree that MDYCOMMA is not a good example; it redirects to the middle of a section rather than the start of a section, skipping over information in the same section about how to avoid commas. In any event, there are tons and tons and tons of other examples. WP:3RRBLP redirects to WP:Edit_warring#EX7. WP:TPA redirects to WP:Blocking policy#TPA. MOS:CLEAR redirects to Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Clarity. MOS:FMC redirects to Wikipedia:Manual of Style#FMC. WP:NORPS redirects to WP:No original research#NORPS.

- Keep. It is a useful redirect to a relevant part of a major policy (BLP). The history of a mere redirect is not relevant, and it's no more decontextualized than numerous other "WP:" links to pieces of policy. That proponents of the WP:MANDY essay seemingly disagree with this rule is also not relevant. Crossroads -talk- 20:27, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- 'Keep This is an easy to remember shorthand for an important policy statement. People who want more context can easily scroll up. But the sentence speaks for itself.-- agr ( talk) 14:58, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. In practice this is an effort to promote a single sentence (pulled out of context) to the level of an independent policy in its own right; it's easy to see that if this redirect is used people will cite it as a policy in its own right. That sort of promotion should have discussion and a clear consensus first, given that this aspect of policy is clearly controversial and has ongoing disputes about how it ought to be applied. There's no indication that this sentence has ever had the level of discussion or consensus-building that would be necessary to emphasize it in this way, especially since the discussions that do exist suggest that it may not have a clear consensus as to its meaning. --

- Yes. First, there is zero harm for redirect in terms of WP's performance, so we should only get rid of redirects when they are not useful. WP:DENIALS (given that DENIAL is take by a humor page) is absolutely useful to point to policy-level advice about the inclusion of denials from BLP. While we do not have to show that shortcut (I've been there with the number of shortcuts that point to WP:NOT but not advertised there) having it available as a clearly understand pointer to policy level advice is useful.

- Keep. The Delete arguments at the above link are pretty appalling. The link points to a section in a rule, which is very common (in this case it's not a section actually, but a sentence in a section, which same difference pretty much IMO). The sentence reads "If the subject has denied such allegations, their denial(s) should also be reported..." This is in WP:BLP.
- A lot of people don't like that. They don't want have to report denials. They want to be able to say "Mr Unlikable was accused of mopery" periodt rather than "Mr Unlikable was accused of mopery, which he vigorously denied". Well sucks to be those people because WP:BLP is a core policy. And because of course you're going to everything reasonably possible to give our victim a fair shake. That is the spirit of BLP.
- But, people are allowed their opinion, we are not rule-bound here, and advocating for rule nullification is allowed (altho WP:LOCALCONSENSUS is often worth considering too, particularly when you're talking about core policies).
- If people want to excise that sentence from BLP, fine, they can run an RfC and try, and good luck with that. But while it remains part of BLP it needs to be pointed out, and have WP:DENIALS in place in order to do that. Especially since the essay Wikipedia:Mandy Rice-Davies applies exists, which basically says "nullify that sentence". I don't agree, but it's legit to have that essay. What's not legit would be to delete WP:DENIALS without deleting WP:MANDY and WP:MRDA which point to that essay. That truly would be saying "We like WP:MANDY, and while a contrary rule exists we want to at least make it harder for editors to point to it". That would be taking sides.
- Which, for large important issues like this, this page is not for. Rather an RfC -- a WP:CENT RfC I'd think since we're talking about a core policy here -- discussing whether "If the subject has denied such allegations, their denial(s) should also be reported..." should remain in BLP, and if so if WP:DENIALS should also exist, if Wikipedia:Mandy Rice-Davies applies should continue to exist and if so if WP:MANDY should also. That's bigger than this page. Herostratus ( talk) 08:02, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - Is it actually wikipedia policy? Yes. Is this an easier way to access it, in a manner that conveys what the policy is in short form? Yes. The deletion arguments sound like they have an axe to grind, like they disagree with the policy, or at the very least that they disagree with how the policy is being applied in debates. That's fine, they can disagree with the policy in the proper places for that, the village pump or RfCs or similar. But this is not the place to debate the existence or usage of the policy. This is merely the place to discuss whether a redirect is useful, clear, and unambiguous. This redirect meets those qualities easily. Fieari ( talk) 02:32, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

3rd_millennium#29th_century only has an entry for 2883 and that is one of the non-linked ones. However your correct that it's more than just this one and I would say the rule should be it its not listed it should not be redirected.

I'm not sure that the "first issue (of an American comic book) to feature a fictional character" is what most people mean by "debut issue": I would have thought it would be the first issue of a thing (comic book, periodical, newspaper...). This current redirect is therefore confusing and should be deleted. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 12:46, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. If there were an article for first issue of a publication, we could disambiguate "debut issue", but there's no such article.

- Keep. It is a useful redirect to a relevant part of a major policy (BLP). The history of a mere redirect is not relevant, and it's no more decontextualized than numerous other "WP:" links to pieces of policy.

- Delete. In practice this is an effort to promote a single sentence (pulled out of context) to the level of an independent policy in its own right; it's easy to see that if this redirect is used people will cite it as a policy in its own right. That sort of promotion should have discussion and a clear consensus first, given that this aspect of policy is clearly controversial and has ongoing disputes about how it ought to be applied. There's no indication that this sentence has ever had the level of discussion or consensus-building that would be necessary to emphasize it in this way, especially since the discussions that do exist suggest that it may not have a clear consensus as to its meaning. --

- Yes. First, there is zero harm for redirect in terms of WP's performance, so we should only get rid of redirects when they are not useful. WP:DENIALS (given that DENIAL is take by a humor page) is absolutely useful to point to policy-level advice about the inclusion of denials from BLP. While we do not have to show that shortcut (I've been there with the number of shortcuts that point to WP:NOT but not advertised there) having it available as a clearly understand pointer to policy level advice is useful.

- Keep. The Delete arguments at the above link are pretty appalling. The link points to a section in a rule, which is very common (in this case it's not a section actually, but a sentence in a section, which same difference pretty much IMO). The sentence reads "If the subject has denied such allegations, their denial(s) should also be reported..." This is in WP:BLP.
- A lot of people don't like that. They don't want have to report denials. They want to be able to say "Mr Unlikable was accused of mopery" periodt rather than "Mr Unlikable was accused of mopery, which he vigorously denied". Well sucks to be those people because WP:BLP is a core policy. And because of course you're going to everything reasonably possible to give our victim a fair shake. That is the spirit of BLP.
- But, people are allowed their opinion, we are not rule-bound here, and advocating for rule nullification is allowed (altho WP:LOCALCONSENSUS is often worth considering too, particularly when you're talking about core policies).
- If people want to excise that sentence from BLP, fine, they can run an RfC and try, and good luck with that. But while it remains part of BLP it needs to be pointed out, and have WP:DENIALS in place in order to do that. Especially since the essay Wikipedia:Mandy Rice-Davies applies exists, which basically says "nullify that sentence". I don't agree, but it's legit to have that essay. What's not legit would be to delete WP:DENIALS without deleting WP:MANDY and WP:MRDA which point to that essay. That truly would be saying "We like WP:MANDY, and while a contrary rule exists we want to at least make it harder for editors to point to it". That would be taking sides.
- Which, for large important issues like this, this page is not for. Rather an RfC -- a WP:CENT RfC I'd think since we're talking about a core policy here -- discussing whether "If the subject has denied such allegations, their denial(s) should also be reported..." should remain in BLP, and if so if WP:DENIALS should also exist, if Wikipedia:Mandy Rice-Davies applies should continue to exist and if so if WP:MANDY should also. That's bigger than this page. Herostratus ( talk) 08:02, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - Is it actually wikipedia policy? Yes. Is this an easier way to access it, in a manner that conveys what the policy is in short form? Yes. The deletion arguments sound like they have an axe to grind, like they disagree with the policy, or at the very least that they disagree with how the policy is being applied in debates. That's fine, they can disagree with the policy in the proper places for that, the village pump or RfCs or similar. But this is not the place to debate the existence or usage of the policy.

Not mentioned in target article - If this is valid the so are all the other years? No reason to think someone searching for this is after the year rather than the number or another use, so non helpful KylieTastic ( talk) 15:47, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- @
KylieTastic Note that currently a lot of other years are in fact redirected to that article too, such as
2888,
2890–
2900, and
2902–
2999 (
2901 being a dab).

3rd_millennium#29th_century only has an entry for 2883 and that is one of the non-linked ones. However your correct that it's more than just this one and I would say the rule should be it its not listed it should not be redirected.

- There is also the
Category:Redirects to a decade and
Category:Redirects to a century, and
Wikipedia:Timeline standards says that
[a]rticles for the year 4000 BC and earlier should be redirected to the relevant millennium
, so there might be an argument in extending this to future years as well (though we don't have Category:Redirects to a millennium). 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 17:15, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

- Template:Notodntidae-stub → Template:Moth-stub ( talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/ retarget/ delete ]
If kept, it should at utter least be retargetted to {{ Notodontidae-stub}} instead of the generic {{ moth-stub}}, but imo, this is pretty clearly a one-off misspelling that's not common enough to warrant a redirect.
