Incorrect redirect. Kamila and Diana are two sisters, not one and the same person. T v x1 23:46, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Another redirect which needs a better target, since the current one is way too broad and unhelpful for readers. CycloneYoris talk! 23:39, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

These are the only pages named "House Speaker/Majority/Minority Leader (X)". No incoming links for Boehner or Cantor, one for Pelosi. WP:CHEAP notwithstanding, these redirects seem unnecessary unless each and every former position-holder also has a redirect with their title and name. These ones don't help readers searching for the current position-holders. -- Sangdeboeuf ( talk) 22:33, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
No mention of "sorting" at the target, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 19:24, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

It's unclear what the disambiguator "(substitution)" is meant to refer. Steel1943 ( talk) 17:19, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
The redirect is strongly related to the subject matter but this person has developed other video games covered on Wikipedia. I don't understand why it should redirect to this article specifically. There's an argument to be made here but I believe it's somewhat problematic. LBWP ( talk) 15:11, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Not mentioned in target article or any other Wikipedia articles related to it. I haven't been able to find any information relating "Sonic Rift" to the subject through online searching. Have no idea what this is even referring to. LBWP ( talk) 15:11, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Not mentioned in the target article and misleading. The subject matter was never intended to be a sequel to Sonic Drift 2. The two games only share a tangential relation in franchise and genre. LBWP ( talk) 15:11, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Another wiktionary redirect targeting a blank page. My thoughts are the same as they were in the nomination below, unless wiktionary gets a proper entry this should be retargeted to something local or deleted. 192.76.8.70 ( talk) 20:31, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Another mathematical symbol redirect that targets a blank wiktionary page. In my opinion one of three things needs to happen here: a) Wiktionary gets a proper page that actually explains what this symbol means b) we find some local content to point the redirect at or c) the redirect is deleted. Telling our readers to look at a page on a sister project that consists of nothing except a mangled version of the unicode character name and a message that someone needs to write a proper entry is worse than useless 192.76.8.70 ( talk) 20:15, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

It's Binary in binary. It had 10001 pageviews in the past 1011010 days, compared to 100001011100101011 for the target. A similar redirect 01000010 01101001 01101110 01100001 01110010 01111001 was deleted in 11111011010. – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 08:40, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
The redirect is rather unhelpful due to lack of content and specific mention in the target article. It seems the subject of this redirect is once in the article, but not by their full name, but rather "Floyd Estel". The only information in the article regarding this subject is that they are a sibling of Dolly Parton and that they are deceased. There are more than 10 family members mentioned in the target article, but this is the only one which redirects here and the information in the target article is lacking information. In addition, this title was an article for about a month in 2007 that was WP:BLAR-ed to target its current target. Steel1943 ( talk) 08:15, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
There doesn't seem to be any such material about Elvis' political beliefs anywhere in the target article, leaving readers who search these terms left with finding nothing. However, the redirect Political beliefs of Elvis Presley was formerly an article that was apparently WP:BLAR-ed as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Political beliefs of Elvis Presley in 2008. Steel1943 ( talk) 06:59, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Not mentioned in target article. There was an article at this title for 5 months in 2008, but then it was WP:BLAR-ed. Per the history of the redirect, seems the subject of this redirect was unnotable and/or a hoax. Steel1943 ( talk) 06:52, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
This redirect can be misleading since there's several items/products that can be used outdoors that are not tools, such as ... outdoor decorations, light fixtures, etc. Steel1943 ( talk) 06:12, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Possible WP:XY issue, but honestly not really sure with the way Equipment is currently written. Tool and Equipment are two separate articles, but the latter is ... currently a list of lists of the former's topic? So, with that, I'm not sure. Steel1943 ( talk) 06:08, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Not mentioned in target article, leaving the connection between the redirect and the target unclear. Per mentions of the redirect on Wikipedia, the "nagayari" seems to be some sort of polearm, but not clear what type of polearm it is. The closest subject in name and type I could find with an existing article on Wikipedia is Yari, but the phrase "nagayari" is not mentioned there either. Steel1943 ( talk) 05:42, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Might as well refer to TeX#math mode. 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 05:20, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
I was expecting to reach WP:Closure requests i.e. "Requests for discussion closure". Very little use, and seems like WP:RFDO, WP:RFDCO, and WP:RFD/C are better shortcuts to the current target. Figured it would be worth considering the best target here. Mdewman6 ( talk) 23:46, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

This is an unhelpful redirect. Andrew Anglin is (as per his WP article) an American neo-Nazi, white supremacist, antisemitic conspiracy theorist, Holocaust denier, and editor of the website The Daily Stormer. "Journalist", even as a redirect, gives this neo-Nazi troll undue credit and professionalism. QueenofBithynia ( talk) 21:25, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

I don't see how this redirect serves any purpose. Yes the actress was on that show, but the article has almost no information on the actual actress. If I'm searching for information on the actress, being redirected there doesn't really help me. JDDJS ( talk to me • see what I've done) 17:43, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Non-notable software releases that are not mentioned in parent articles. No incoming links on enwiki or on Commons. Joofjoof ( talk) 01:20, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
In the previous nomination of redirects containing trademark registration symbols, there was an absence of consensus to delete based on the possibility that editors would come across these names and symbols in the wild and copy/paste them into our search bar. However, the chance of an editor coming across a term with a registration symbol combined with a Wikipedia-style parenthetical disambiguator is substantially diminished. This set of redirects presents a much clearer case for deletion. BD2412 T 00:34, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
