This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on August 7, 2023.
Different redirects make different levels of sense. Some of them seem plausible, some of them look like they ought to go to navboxes, and others are just confusing. Renominate individually, because any blanket close over these would be either too complex to implement or not actually solve any problems at hand.

These templates redirect to a WikiProject banner, but typically navboxes (or sometimes sidebars) get the subject as the template name. (See Category:Navigational boxes by topic.) Because their targets are (in effect) a surprise, I suggest they be deleted. If a shortcut is desired for any of these, it's been standard to prefix a shortcut with "WP" to indicate a WikiProject template. I'm testing a small number of redirects for positive consensus prior to considering others. SWinxy ( talk) 23:57, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Not useful search terms. However, they contain useful edit history; if they are not deleted, they probably need to be moved without leaving a redirect elsewhere. Steel1943 ( talk) 23:58, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting to close the June 22 logpage. (I can't believe that this is the fourth relist in as many months!) It seems that participants either want these two redirects to be kept, moved without redirect, or histmerged into the main
World War II article, but it's unclear what we should actually choose.

Both deleted last November after lengthy discussion (which the user who recreated the pages apparently missed, although they specifically noted the RfD before that one in their edit summary). AFAIK nothing has changed since then to make this redirect more useful or necessary. — Sangdeboeuf ( talk) 17:25, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
good enough for a redirect-- FMSky ( talk) 17:43, 7 August 2023 (UTC)"Reverse racism, sometimes referred to as reverse discrimination,[1] is the concept that affirmative action and similar color-conscious programs for redressing racial inequality are forms of anti-white racism."
affirmative action and similar color-conscious programs. In short, "reverse racism" may refer to purported "anti-white racism", but "anti-white racism" doesn't necessarily imply "reverse racism". — Sangdeboeuf ( talk) 19:46, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
anti-white racism itself as a topic, apart from a brief summary of the reverse racism article. — Sangdeboeuf ( talk) 07:01, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - Actually called "Charlotte Augusta". This is an incorrect format which I've found no usage referring to her. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 15:46, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - Not his actual numeral. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 15:04, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - Highly unlikely search term. There is also the dispute over whether Alexandra is a "LG" or "KG" (Lady or Knight of the Garter). estar8806 ( talk) ★ 15:03, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - In now way is this a plausible search term. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 15:01, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

a compilation of 1001 biographies of famous women of the Netherlands. Both redirects appear to have been created by User:Jane023 who also contributed to the article on that book. Maybe this is how those two names appear in that book, in which case they could both be useful. Of course I cannot comment on the matter myself, because I do not have access to that book but it is a possibility that needs to be considered. Keivan.f Talk 04:01, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - Sophia Dorothea's children were Princes of Prussia, not of Orange, so this makes no sense. Unless somebody else knows something I don't? estar8806 ( talk) ★ 14:47, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Retarget to Duke of Cambridge#Dukes of Cambridge - Could realistically refer to any of the first Dukes of Cambridge from any creation, including Prince William. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 14:39, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - Her actual name was "Charlotte Augusta Matilda" and the incorrect format returns no use at all referring to the subject. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 14:32, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Retarget to Regency Acts - People using this specific search term are most likely looking for the laws rather than the crisis. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 14:29, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Retarget to Caroline Matilda of Great Britain - Any results for "Matilda of Wales" I've found result in Caroline Matilda. This Maud seems to have been solely called "Maud" and never "Matilda". estar8806 ( talk) ★ 14:25, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
Delete - If "Albert" were the surname this redirect could make sense. But it is not, so this is an implausible search term. estar8806 ( talk) ★ 14:19, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

It seems strange to redirect a classical Latin hymn to the biography page of the compiler of a hymn book which includes someone else's setting of this hymn (by Johann Hermann Schein). Most information we have on wiki seems to be at Te lucis ante terminum, but a red link to encourage article creation might also be an option. Felix QW ( talk) 06:57, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
This redirect originally went to List of villages in Ternopil Oblast, however there are multiple villages named Urozhaine are located in Ukraine, one of which is been in the news recently due to the war. I moved the redirect to Urozhaine, Ternopil Oblast to disambiguate it from the other villages, and now propose we either delete the old redirect or turn it into a disambiguation page listing all of the Ukrainian villages called Urozhaine.
