- Comment. It's not just US high schools, everywhere that algebra is being taught over several years or terms there's a tendency to label the individual units like that (examples from Russia [1] and from US higher education phttps://principedia.princeton.edu/principedia/algebra-i/], where the content is understandably unrelated to that of the high school modules). Noting also that the redirects Algebra 1, Algebra 2 and Algebra 3 also exist. – Uanfala ( talk) 13:40, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Comment. The "Algebra 1" course at the Moscow University referred to by User:Uanfala is part of a university-level sequence on abstract algebra. Such courses may also be found in American universities over the span of one or two semesters. However, the term "Algebra 1" in the U.S. almost always refers to a high school course taught around 9th grade, and such courses are generally not found outside of the U.S. The university level course is usually referred to in English as "Abstract Algebra". Most English-speaking people searching for "Algebra I" or "Algebra 1" are probably looking for the high school course, so it should redirect to Mathematics Education in the United States. -- seberle ( talk) 00:13, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

(Thanks Uanfala for pointing out the existence of these redirects.) Steel1943 ( talk) 19:54, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Algebra 3 (but keep/retarget others per my amended original comment above). Algebra 3 is not mentioned at target, and has only some passing mentions elsewhere on enwiki, usually in references. Pedagogically, Algebra III is probably equivalent to precalculus in the U.S., but is at best a much less common synonym. Unless a mention can be added, deletion seems best. Moreover, Algebra III does not exist. Mdewman6 ( talk) 20:30, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

- British universities also have "Algebra 1" classes referring to algebraic structures like fields and rings: Algebra 1 at Warwick. I don't think the University of Warwick should be discussed at Mathematics education in the United States, but I do think the target of Algebra 1 should contain information about things covered in Warwick's Algebra 1 course. — Kusma ( talk) 11:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

Mathematics education in the United States. There is no course called Algebra 3. Also, these course names are unique to the United States.

- Delete all. These terms are too generic to be useful search results, in addition to the above a quick search found that the University of Tasmania has an Algebra 2 module
[2], Durham University (UK) offers Algebra II
[3] and "algebra 1" seems to be an informal name for several different courses at different levels in the Indian education system.

- @Thryduulf: Algebra 1 is used most often in the United States. So we should redirect Algebra 1, 2, etc. to the corresponding sections of the article Mathematics education in the United States. Algebra 3 should be deleted because it is not a commonly used term. 01:29, 20 January 2023 (UTC) Mast303 ( talk) 01:29, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

If these terms are kept at all, they should redirect to Mathematics education in the United States since this is by far the most common usage. (They can apparently also refer to the first part of a college abstract algebra course in some places.) Course titles, especially those recognized in only one country, don't seem like encyclopedia content to me. I am fine with deleting these terms. -- seberle ( talk) 12:09, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- Restore Algebra I and Algebra II. These articles can and should be expanded to explain these courses elsewhere outside of the US, as well as differences in the curricula. In the meantime {{ Globalize}} templates and perhaps examples of the non-US offerings that have been linked in this discussion would enhance the articles.

Redirect from a person to a province makes no sense. It might as well redirect to Earth. Toddst1 ( talk) 19:15, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Comment, the person in question seems to the vice-governor of the province, so there is at least something that relates to the two together (i.e. it's not completely random, as implied by the nominator). I tagged it as a redirect from a person as couldn't see a strong enough reason to consider it useless (i.e. it has some usefulness, if very little).

- Speedy keep. Disruptive renomination, same as #Jew Gold. Glades12 ( talk) 08:42, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
- D/K depending upon if this is found to be WP:ATD-R at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jew gold: First off, apologies for what is certainly my longest bold part of a !vote I've done; however my arguments are such. Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow isn't up at AfD so unless this is retargeted to Jew gold, this wouldn't be WP:G8able if Jew gold is deleted at the AfD. The AfD for the article Jew gold has consensus currently roughly leaning towards deleting Jew gold instead of retargeting to Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow. By this same logic, we should also delete this redirect; however, if consensus changes and Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow is found to be a suitable WP:ATD-R (I don't believe it really is both for it's high potential for vandalism and low view counts), then it should be kept, despite my personal thoughts, as that's what consensus dictated was appropriate for a very similar term.

- Delete as a variant of Jew gold which had no consensus for redirecting at the AfD. There was one vote for redirect, and several against redirecting. I understand the speedy keeps here by LaundryPizza03 and Glades12 were a misunderstanding of the target (as this is different from the Jew Gold RfD), and as explained by Tartar and Natg 19.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943 ( talk) 19:46, 6 January 2023 (UTC)- @ A7V2, Mdewman6, Seberle, and Uanfala: Pinging current participants to let them know of the 3 new redirects have been added to the nomination in the event their votes need to be adjusted. (Thanks Uanfala for pointing out the existence of these redirects.) Steel1943 ( talk) 19:54, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Algebra 3 (but keep/retarget others per my amended original comment above). Algebra 3 is not mentioned at target, and has only some passing mentions elsewhere on enwiki, usually in references. Pedagogically, Algebra III is probably equivalent to precalculus in the U.S., but is at best a much less common synonym. Unless a mention can be added, deletion seems best. Moreover, Algebra III does not exist. Mdewman6 ( talk) 20:30, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

- Delete all, confusing. I took a course in "Algebra 1" at a German university and it was mostly
Galois theory. Failing that, redirect to
algebra, which mentions most of the things that "Algebra 1" can mean. —

- British universities also have "Algebra 1" classes referring to algebraic structures like fields and rings: Algebra 1 at Warwick. I don't think the University of Warwick should be discussed at Mathematics education in the United States, but I do think the target of Algebra 1 should contain information about things covered in Warwick's Algebra 1 course. — Kusma ( talk) 11:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Algebra 3, but retarget others to
Mathematics education in the United States. There is no course called Algebra 3. Also, these course names are unique to the United States.

- The University of Warwick, which offers " Algebra 1" and " Algebra II", is not in the United States. — Kusma ( talk) 14:45, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete all. These terms are too generic to be useful search results, in addition to the above a quick search found that the University of Tasmania has an Algebra 2 module
[2], Durham University (UK) offers Algebra II
[3] and "algebra 1" seems to be an informal name for several different courses at different levels in the Indian education system.

- @Thryduulf: Algebra 1 is used most often in the United States. So we should redirect Algebra 1, 2, etc. to the corresponding sections of the article Mathematics education in the United States. Algebra 3 should be deleted because it is not a commonly used term. 01:29, 20 January 2023 (UTC) Mast303 ( talk) 01:29, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mello hi! ( 投稿) 20:43, 21 January 2023 (UTC)- Delete all. If these terms are kept at all, they should redirect to Mathematics education in the United States since this is by far the most common usage. (They can apparently also refer to the first part of a college abstract algebra course in some places.) Course titles, especially those recognized in only one country, don't seem like encyclopedia content to me. I am fine with deleting these terms. -- seberle ( talk) 12:09, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- Restore Algebra I and Algebra II. These articles can and should be expanded to explain these courses elsewhere outside of the US, as well as differences in the curricula. In the meantime {{ Globalize}} templates and perhaps examples of the non-US offerings that have been linked in this discussion would enhance the articles. Retarget Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 respectfully. Delete Algebra 3, no suitable content exists. -- Tavix ( talk) 20:55, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Redirect from a person to a province makes no sense. It might as well redirect to Earth. Toddst1 ( talk) 19:15, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Comment, the person in question seems to the vice-governor of the province, so there is at least something that relates to the two together (i.e. it's not completely random, as implied by the nominator). I tagged it as a redirect from a person as couldn't see a strong enough reason to consider it useless (i.e. it has some usefulness, if very little).

- Speedy keep. Disruptive renomination, same as #Jew Gold. Glades12 ( talk) 08:42, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
- D/K depending upon if this is found to be WP:ATD-R at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jew gold: First off, apologies for what is certainly my longest bold part of a !vote I've done; however my arguments are such. Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow isn't up at AfD so unless this is retargeted to Jew gold, this wouldn't be WP:G8able if Jew gold is deleted at the AfD. The AfD for the article Jew gold has consensus currently roughly leaning towards deleting Jew gold instead of retargeting to Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow. By this same logic, we should also delete this redirect; however, if consensus changes and Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow is found to be a suitable WP:ATD-R (I don't believe it really is both for it's high potential for vandalism and low view counts), then it should be kept, despite my personal thoughts, as that's what consensus dictated was appropriate for a very similar term.

- Comment Jew gold was deleted at AfD, but this redirect was not deleted. Natg 19 ( talk) 01:42, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete as a variant of Jew gold which had no consensus for redirecting at the AfD. There was one vote for redirect, and several against redirecting. I understand the speedy keeps here by LaundryPizza03 and Glades12 were a misunderstanding of the target (as this is different from the Jew Gold RfD), and as explained by Tartar and Natg 19.

Could potentially be ambiguous since "asphalt" could also refer to Asphalt concrete, and alternatives to that could include any material that can be used to make a road. Steel1943 ( talk) 19:39, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
