Marked as a "shortcut", but is the same length as the target. Zuata ( talk) 21:59, 18 February 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Completley valid {{ R from modification}}. This redirect has over 21,000 incoming links and receives over 200 page views a month. Since this is fully protected it also has the nice side effect of preventing people using this title as a sandbox, look at the page history. 192.76.8.77 ( talk) 22:07, 18 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per above reasoning. Misplaced RCATs aren't a valid reason for a redirect to be deleted. Also, WP:Redirects are cheap. --- CX Zoom(he/him) ( let's talk| contribs) 17:32, 19 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Kevin Sellers

The result of the discussion was delete. In addition to not being mentioned at the target, participants supported deleting this redirect to allow the search results to guide the readers to their desired subject, which may include the screenwriter or what appears to be an audio engineer (mentioned at Supralingua and Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008 TV series)). There was insufficient support to conclude that one of these individuals was the primary target to justify retargeting the nominated redirect elsewhere. plicit 23:58, 25 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Not mentioned at target. There are passing mentions of a seemingly unrelated screenwiter in various articles. ~~~~

  • Reply - No reason to remove it, and I am willing for the quorum to discuss that here. Additionally, Sellers wrote Blue Skies Again, which would be a suitable redirect. -- Jax 0677 ( talk) 20:31, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete to reveal search results. -- Tavix ( talk) 20:56, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete, for the same reason I removed the mention of Sellers' confession to an unrelated murder from the target article. Even if it was relevant to mention that he was questioned about the Williams/German murders, WP:BLP1E. The tipster may have thought it was appropriate to mention Sellers to the investigators of the Williams/German murders, but there is no evidence that he was ever seriously considered a suspect in those murders, and we do not generally list everyone who has been questioned in a murder investigation, much less consider them notable enough for an article (or even a redirect).

Implausible Mixed script redirect, the first charecter here is the number zero rather than the letter o (I suppose 0 vs O isn't really mixed script, but the same arguments apply and it's just as implausible as a search term). 192.76.8.77 ( talk) 17:03, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Retarget to Emoticon#Orz which is probably the only plausible use of "orz" that could have the o replaced with a 0. eviolite (talk) 18:29, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Pretty common alternative spelling online I would say C933103 ( talk) 05:27, 14 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment this is a very plausible typo since it is very common to substitute 0 for o and vice versa. Also the [o] key is next to the [0] key on QWERTY English language keyboards. And Arabic numerals appear on English language keyboards, so it isn't like it is a script that doesn't appear on Englsh language keyboards -- 65.92.246.142 ( talk) 06:01, 14 February 2022 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was retarget to Otto Theodor Benfey#Earlham College. The retarget proposals addresses concerns raised by deletion and has late momentum. signed, Rosguill talk 01:43, 2 March 2022 (UTC) reply

Deletion, because the former refers to a now discontinued textbook, meaning it should not be a redirect to the latter. RekishiEJ ( talk) 09:23, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Well, the general concept would be a good redirect target for Chemical bond approach, which doesn't currently exist, but the proper noun should target the book. The book is actually The Chemical Bond Approach (which also doesn't exist as a redirect currently), but I still think the capitalized form should target the book, a case of WP:DIFFCAPS, or technically, as a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT as a shortened version of the name for the book, taking priority over an incorrectly capitalized form of the concept in general, which I don't believe is really a proper noun. Mdewman6 ( talk) 08:07, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
But yeah, since all of the pedagogical stuff stems from tbe book, if the book were described at a target like Chemical education, more so than the brief mention at the proposed target, then yes that would then be a better target. Mdewman6 ( talk) 08:13, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Rather misleading since the target is not necessarily a transcription of aleph in a Semitic script, and especially since it makes it harder to describe aleph numbers in mathematics. – LaundryPizza03 ( d ) 08:55, 4 February 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete Unused template redirect. UnitedStatesian ( talk) 20:08, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Weak keep per MOS:APOSTROPHE, which says Letters resembling apostrophes, such as ʻokina, saltillo, Hebrew ayin and Arabic hamza, should be represented by those templates or by their Unicode values. - this should also extend to {{ aleph}}. The standard Latin script transliteration of aleph indeed appears to be ʾ (not sure what "not necessarily a transcription" means - also see Modifier letter right half ring), and I highly disagree that it "makes it harder to describe aleph numbers", as in that context it would be represented as <math>\aleph</math> or {{math|ℵ}}. The fact that it is not used at all is interesting though - I wonder if the plain Unicode character or its codepoint is used instead - so my !vote is weak. {{ Rhr}} itself does not have mainspace uses either. eviolite (talk) 04:05, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was delete. Jay (talk) 15:34, 24 February 2022 (UTC) reply

I see three main issues with this redirect. Firstly, the term (in reference to cars) appears to be totally made up, trying to be some equivalent to Japanese domestic market. I can find no useage in reliable sources but this [2] seems to suggest it is not really a term that is used. Secondly, even if the term is used by reliable sources, it would be about the automobiles specifically made in and for the local market, whereas the target is about automobile manufacturing in Australia both for domestic sale and export. Finally, the term is clearly quite ambigous, and could refer to just about anything. I do note that it is linked to in two articles, Chrysler Hemi-6 Engine and Volvo Redblock Engine, both piped, and in my opinion both should be removed (and I will shortly do so).

  • Delete. Highly ambiguous, not an established phrase for anything in particular as JDM is. Google searches show mostly aviation-related topics but also livestock and wine; JSTOR shows results about cinema, tobacco, energy, general economics/trading, and so on. If the redirect stays, it should be redirected to Aviation in Australia, but as I said it's nowhere near an established term that can only refer to that. eviolite (talk) 02:45, 20 February 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Completley valid {{ R from modification}}. This redirect has over 21,000 incoming links and receives over 200 page views a month. Since this is fully protected it also has the nice side effect of preventing people using this title as a sandbox, look at the page history. 192.76.8.77 ( talk) 22:07, 18 February 2022 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was delete. In addition to not being mentioned at the target, participants supported deleting this redirect to allow the search results to guide the readers to their desired subject, which may include the screenwriter or what appears to be an audio engineer (mentioned at Supralingua and Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008 TV series)). There was insufficient support to conclude that one of these individuals was the primary target to justify retargeting the nominated redirect elsewhere. plicit 23:58, 25 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Not mentioned at target. There are passing mentions of a seemingly unrelated screenwiter in various articles. ~~~~

  • Delete, for the same reason I removed the mention of Sellers' confession to an unrelated murder from the target article. Even if it was relevant to mention that he was questioned about the Williams/German murders, WP:BLP1E. The tipster may have thought it was appropriate to mention Sellers to the investigators of the Williams/German murders, but there is no evidence that he was ever seriously considered a suspect in those murders, and we do not generally list everyone who has been questioned in a murder investigation, much less consider them notable enough for an article (or even a redirect).

Implausible Mixed script redirect, the first charecter here is the number zero rather than the letter o (I suppose 0 vs O isn't really mixed script, but the same arguments apply and it's just as implausible as a search term). 192.76.8.77 ( talk) 17:03, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Deletion, because the former refers to a now discontinued textbook, meaning it should not be a redirect to the latter. RekishiEJ ( talk) 09:23, 11 February 2022 (UTC) reply

Well, the general concept would be a good redirect target for Chemical bond approach, which doesn't currently exist, but the proper noun should target the book. The book is actually The Chemical Bond Approach (which also doesn't exist as a redirect currently), but I still think the capitalized form should target the book, a case of WP:DIFFCAPS, or technically, as a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT as a shortened version of the name for the book, taking priority over an incorrectly capitalized form of the concept in general, which I don't believe is really a proper noun. Mdewman6 ( talk) 08:07, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply
But yeah, since all of the pedagogical stuff stems from tbe book, if the book were described at a target like Chemical education, more so than the brief mention at the proposed target, then yes that would then be a better target. Mdewman6 ( talk) 08:13, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Weak keep per MOS:APOSTROPHE, which says Letters resembling apostrophes, such as ʻokina, saltillo, Hebrew ayin and Arabic hamza, should be represented by those templates or by their Unicode values. - this should also extend to {{ aleph}}. The standard Latin script transliteration of aleph indeed appears to be ʾ (not sure what "not necessarily a transcription" means - also see Modifier letter right half ring), and I highly disagree that it "makes it harder to describe aleph numbers", as in that context it would be represented as <math>\aleph</math> or {{math|ℵ}}. The fact that it is not used at all is interesting though - I wonder if the plain Unicode character or its codepoint is used instead - so my !vote is weak. {{ Rhr}} itself does not have mainspace uses either. eviolite (talk) 04:05, 13 February 2022 (UTC) reply

I see three main issues with this redirect. Firstly, the term (in reference to cars) appears to be totally made up, trying to be some equivalent to Japanese domestic market. I can find no useage in reliable sources but this [2] seems to suggest it is not really a term that is used. Secondly, even if the term is used by reliable sources, it would be about the automobiles specifically made in and for the local market, whereas the target is about automobile manufacturing in Australia both for domestic sale and export. Finally, the term is clearly quite ambigous, and could refer to just about anything. I do note that it is linked to in two articles, Chrysler Hemi-6 Engine and Volvo Redblock Engine, both piped, and in my opinion both should be removed (and I will shortly do so).
