Golden Triangle (slavery)

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was keep. Term is now mentioned at target. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 10:29, 31 August 2023 (UTC) reply

This name isn't used in the target article. While readers can probably reasonably assume it's a synonym, the redirect is of limited use, and likely to cause confusion, in the absence of some explanation of how and by whom the term is used and whether its meaning differs at all. Discussion at the talk page hasn't indicated any interest in adding such a mention. –  Arms & Hearts ( talk) 16:21, 11 August 2023 (UTC) reply

@ Arms & Hearts: Keep – I don't see the problem here: it's an example of "Triangular trade". ( [1], [2]) Edward-Woodrow :) [ talk 20:54, 11 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • REvert to the old state's intro para only. Add summary style section for the current target. Add some info from Americans in North Korea etc. During the Korean War, some people did defect. And since, such as that incident recently in the DMZ with the U.S. soldier. -- 67.70.25.80 ( talk) 09:59, 25 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Restore per nom. Wait a week and see if additional content is added per the IPs suggestions, and any of us may boldly move it to Ivan's suggested title if there are no updates. Jay 💬 06:55, 26 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Moving the article isn't really what Ivanvector suggested; they suggested moving the redirect. There already is an article about "South Korean defection to North Korea" located at the current target; it's why the author of the article blanked and redirected it. – Scyrme ( talk) 18:44, 26 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    You are correct. Struck off. If no additional content is being added to the restored version, move it to draft. Jay 💬 05:21, 27 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Title which includes both a name and an abbreviation. Suggesting deletion, per Wikipedia:Redirects are costly#Some unneeded redirects. Hey man im josh ( talk) 14:57, 10 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Weak keep since this title isn't a totally implausible search term, given that the target article was originally created under this title and the redirect has already gotten pretty decent pageviews in the intervening month or so. These redirects with an abbreviation followed by a long name in parentheses certainly shouldn't be created often per the essay you linked, but since redirects are cheap, it doesn't really hurt to have them around. (By the way, @ Hey man im josh, I noticed this discussion because you were on a roll reviewing the redirects I've created, though you apparently had issues with this one.) Duckmather ( talk) 16:04, 10 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Weak keep (very weak) this was the original title in article space and was there for almost a day. I don't see this redirect as particularly harmful to keep but agree they shouldn't, in general, be created outside of page moves. Skynxnex ( talk) 17:08, 10 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Weak delete - I don't disagree with the comments above, but the page was at this title for slightly less than a day, and the pageviews since it was moved away don't suggest that it has been externally linked. But it's also harmless. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 15:22, 11 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Weak keep: if people use it, then keep per WP:RKEEP#5. Also, harmless. Edward-Woodrow :) [ talk 11:54, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Titles with both a name and an abbreviation are costly. The pageviews argument isn't very convincing, since they dropped off to nothing very shortly after the redirect was created during the move. – Scyrme ( talk) 13:56, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply

The result of the discussion was retarget to List of Star (Disney+) original programming#Korean. (non-admin closure) Edward-Woodrow :) [ talk 12:39, 27 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Not mentioned at the target and it seems the title is Han River Police not Han River, per the sources I found. I could be incorrect on the latter point/it could be irrelevant if it is also referred to as Han River, but if there is no entry added to the page List of Disney+ original programming this redirect should be deleted.

August 4 riot

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was delete. As an unopposed deletion nomination. Jay 💬 14:17, 25 August 2023 (UTC) reply

While these new redirects are borderline searchable, the main difficulty I find is that they are actually slightly ambiguous (and possibly also suffer from WP:RECENTISM). A different riot occurred on August 4, 1942 at the Santa Anita Assembly Center. On the face of it, this potential confusion points to the possibility that these redirects should be disambiguated, but I personally think they should be deleted. Date article names should only be used if an event is heavily associated with that date—not simply because it happened on such-and-such date. See for example September 11 attacks and January 6 United States Capitol attack as examples of the former, and the lack of a June 24 building collapse as an example of the latter.

The Original Series

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was keep. Deemed to be a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT after WP:SMALLDETAILS is taken into account with the capitalization. The hatnote serves a good enough job right now. (non-admin closure) Skarmory (talk • contribs) 00:52, 26 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Too vague and general to apply specifically to Star Trek. This page name could refer to the concept of Original programming (as said in the hatnote on the target page), as well as The Originals (TV series), and more generally, the initial entries in any media franchise which has seen continuation in the form of sequels, reboots, spin-offs, and the like. I feel that this redirect should be either disambiguated or redirected to a more general target. silviaASH ( inquire within) 04:46, 10 August 2023 (UTC) reply

I see no connection between this Redirect and the Redirect target article. Liz Read! Talk! 03:41, 8 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: This seems to be the target's real name, which used to be the original title until BabsonAlum7 moved it to Vladimiri Zachar in 2015 and then to its current title a little under two years later. There is a discussion on the talk page about whether the name "Frank Satire" is a valid alternative name for the target, and if the target should be moved back to the redirect's title. Not sure about my position yet, but it might be worth looking at. Regards, SONIC 678 05:25, 8 August 2023 (UTC) reply
