Redirects for discussion (RfD) is the place where potentially problematic redirects are discussed. Items usually stay listed for a week or so, after which they are deleted, kept, or retargeted.
Please do not unilaterally rename or change the target of a redirect while it is under discussion. This adds unnecessary complication to the discussion for participants and closers.
Please be aware of these general policies, which apply here as elsewhere:
This page is transcluded from Wikipedia:Redirect/Deletion reasons. ( | history) |
The major reasons why deletion of redirects is harmful are:
Therefore consider the deletion only of either harmful redirects or of recent ones.
You might want to delete a redirect if one or more of the following conditions is met (but note also the exceptions listed below this list):
suppressredirect
user right; available to
page movers and admins), perform a
round-robin move. If not, take the article to
Requested moves.
However, avoid deleting such redirects if:
Just as article titles using non-neutral language
are permitted in some circumstances, so are such redirects. Because redirects are less visible to readers, more latitude is allowed in their names, therefore perceived lack of neutrality in redirect names is not a sufficient reason for their deletion. In most cases, non-neutral but
verifiable redirects should point to neutrally titled articles about the subject of the term. Non-neutral redirects may be tagged with {{
R from non-neutral name}}
.
Non-neutral redirects are commonly created for three reasons:
The exceptions to this rule would be redirects that are not established terms and are unlikely to be useful, and therefore may be nominated for deletion, perhaps under deletion reason #3. However, if a redirect represents an established term that is used in multiple mainstream reliable sources, it should be kept even if non-neutral, as it will facilitate searches on such terms. Please keep in mind that RfD is not the place to resolve most editorial disputes.
Nominations should remain open, per policy, about a week before they are closed, unless they meet the general criteria for speedy deletion, the criteria for speedy deletion of a redirect, or are not valid redirect discussion requests (e.g. are actually move requests).

WP:XNR only linked from one talk page archive. Solo climbing and Protected intersection both have sections titled "Full protection". Mia Mahey ( talk) 04:55, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

Not mentioned in target. May be appropriate to include since it does seem to be a center of the university, but unclear to me if it is due weight; no objections to keeping the redirect if the subject is added to the article. Rusalkii ( talk) 03:38, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

Disputed speedy deletion that I'm consquently taking here even though it clearly passes the WP:SNOW test. This is a "surname to individual person with it" redirect, except that (a) it isn't even his actual surname, but instead the article was created at Said Hamich despite the subject being more usually credited as Said Hamich Benlarbi, such that every single article connected to the film he just dropped at Cannes a few days ago completely missed that an article existed until I found and moved it, and (b) he isn't even the sole or primary topic for "Hamich" anyway, because every single inbound link that's actually coming here is expecting a German village just outside Aachen that was bombed in World War II. So using this as a single-topic surname redirect isn't appropriate if he isn't the sole topic and the incoming links are all expecting the other one across the board. Bearcat ( talk) 21:40, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
While I was RfDing astounding, I noticed this redirect. Maybe delete as too vague/confusing? (A lot of events could be called an "astounding incident", depending on your point of view, and we don't seem to have articles on either the concepts of astoundingness or incidents either.) Duckmather ( talk) 20:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Yet another confusing vocabulary word redirect, similar to astonishing. I propose retargeting this to either wikt:astounding, with Surprise (emotion) as a second choice due to it being much less of a good match for "astounding". (There are lots of partial title matches by the way.) Duckmather ( talk) 20:27, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

The target of this redirect should likely be reconsidered. The most helpful solution may to turn this into a DAB, merging with Turkish Bath (disambiguation). Reason: The term "Turkish bath" in a Western context is fairly generic and might also denote other types of steam baths, in addition to the mainly Islamic ones covered at Hammam. Since this was last discussed in 2021 (see here), a more fully-fledged Victorian Turkish bath article now exists. Other articles might also be relevant to link. Note: This came out of a discussion at Talk:Turkish Bath (disambiguation) between myself and Ishpoloni. Feel free to read there for more context & explanation.

No mention at target. Until some time back the target was LATAM Airlines which was decided as the priamry topic at this RfD 8 months back. The subject of Latin America didn't come up at the prior RfD, hence I figured this renomination is better than reverting the change by the IP who has also modified LATAM (disambiguation) to make Latin America the primary topic. Revert or agree with the new primary topic? Jay 💬 19:11, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Redirect in draftspace created as a result of disruptive article creation by an IP user over an existing redirect, and NPP not reverting the disruptive edits, but instead draftifying their "work" (which consisted of a lazy, unreferenced stub).

Not completely sure if this redirect is eligible for WP:X3 since both its creator created this redirect not as a {{ R from move}}, and since the acronym listed for the target in the article is "ACS(I)" with no space between the "S" and "(I)" letters. But then again, there is no space between the "C" and "S" letters either, and their words are clearly separate. Vote here is for delete, but bringing it here instead of tagging since I see this as a borderline case per what I have stated. Steel1943 ( talk) 21:12, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
Not sure if this qualifies for WP:X3 since it looks like double disambiguation instead of lacking a space between the title and the disambiguator ... but either way, this redirect is as useful and as problematic as the redirects that are eligible for WP:X3.

Target does not mention Dulah at all, and per the original stub at Dulah, California, Dulah was nothing more than a rail siding located near Solimar. It's incredibly unlikely that anyone would search for a rail siding, and even if they did, they won't find any information about it here. Delete this redirect.

Previously discussed at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 December 28#The Big One (earthquake). However, multiple sources prove that "The Big One" does not only refer to the anticipated mega-quake in Los Angeles, but also refers to a similar feared one that can devastate Metro Manila, the Philippines. Here are some of the reliable sources that prove "The Big One" is not just a U.S. thing: from Rizal Medical Center, from DOST, from Inquirer.net, from Manila Bulletin, from a World Bank blog, from Philippine Star, and from Manila Standard Today.

Its was pointing to the DAB from 2019 until last month and I changed it back to the DAB today.

I can see that the redirect target has been changed a couple times recently, so I'm going to bring this to discussion rather than just change it again without consensus. I think this should be retargeted to Get Out, the undisambiguated film article (as was decided with significant support in 2017) and be tagged as {{ R from miscapitalization}}. If we accept that Get Out is PTOPIC (which, of course, I support) then it would make more sense that someone typing those precise words, regardless of capitalization, should be directed to that article. It's where I was expecting to be taken just now when I encountered the dab page instead. Seems pretty cut-and-dry to me. QuietHere ( talk | contributions) 14:08, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Delete. These were created over 20 years ago, very early in Wikipedia's history, possibly when article titling was done differently. There is no substantial history on any of them. Some of them were originally the pages for the book before a move, and some were created as redirects. Apart from that creation/move, there are only some bot/maintenance edits. None of the redirects have any incoming links except for the Cryptonomicon one, which has userspace links on a list of redirects that some user is maintaining. -- superioridad ( discusión) 18:07, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Both of these redirects have no point. Both these redirects ( Baakghost and Baak (Telugu film)) along with Baak (Telugu Film) were initially created by SenthilGugan as Articles for the Telugu dubbed version of Aranmanai 4. After seeing no need for another article, when there's already a primary article and an Afd the pages were turned to redirects. But, there is no need these many redirects, as not even the Google recognizes these names. I only included two redirects because, the other one has already been Rfded.

(disambiguation)which target a page performing a disambiguation-like function (rather than a disambiguation page) are also helpful for linking to Wikidata items. To use this redirect as an example, the French and Italian Wikipedias have a disambiguation page for the term
Dougie, which are both linked to Dougie (Q13364643): Wikimedia disambiguation page. However, as Dougie (given name) is an article about the name & isn't a dab page, it's linked to the Wikidata item about the name itself ( Dougie (Q3037978): male given name). Redirects such as Dougie (disambiguation) are able to be connected to the Wikidata item about the disambiguation page as a sitelink to redirect (as I've just done); and therefore allow readers of the French and Italian Wikipedias to access the enwiki article (that serves a disambiguation-like function) via an interlanguage link.

This was flagged up at
Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation#Searching for "Blagger" currently redirects to a page with no mention of the word. by
user:Oathed with the comment seems weird that it doesn't link or disambig to Blagger (video game). Not sure how to mark a page for "Disambig page needed".
At the very least this does need a hatnote to the video game, but I'm not acutally sure the video game isn't the primary target. Neither the present target nor
Pretexting (linked as the main article) use the term. The only other uses I'm finding (
Blaggers ITA (formerly known as The Blaggers) and
The Blaggers Guide would be at most see-alsos on a dab page.
The video game article was created at this title but moved in March 2018 by
Zxcvbnm with the summary "Merge, in order to disambiguate" but they just changed the redirect target and added a hatnote. The hatnote was
removed without explanation by an IP in 2020, but the mention of "blagging" had been
removed in July 2018 as part of a cull of unreferenced information by
Michaelgt123. None of "blag", "blagging" or "blagger" has ever been included in the

These redirects were articles created in 2017 by (blocked user) BlackJack, and PRODed by @ Blue Square Thing: in 2019, but redirected by @ Andrew Davidson:. The names of the subjects of the redirects do not appear in the target article, and are never likely to, and do not appear in List of Marylebone Cricket Club players (1787–1826) because that list is for first-class players, which these apparently weren't.

This redirect was an article for less than an hour.

Additionally, "Medicare" may also refer to the Canadian and Australian systems, each of which surely has its own problems.

Well, in for a penny, in for a pound... this nomination consists of every remaining redirect with unclosed parenthesis, of which there are now only twelve. All of these typos are not plausible to intentionally make on their own. Because there's been cumulatively 1000+ or so of these redirect types deleted over the last few months, this nomination seeks to determine whether there's a threshold that makes these redirects acceptable, or if one even exists. Most of these redirects have come to exist through erroneous links, which are updateable. While it's good to have redirects from common misspellings lying around for ease of navigation on Wikipedia, the presence of implausible redirect errors sets unreasonable expectations and portrays the faulty notion to readers that "infinite typo variations are encouraged, regardless of likelihood", when this is not currently the case. For the most part, spelling variations are accepted in redirects; especially with words that are tricky to spell, having a set of titles with minor differences can be useful to capture likely, intentional errors. When it pertains to disambiguation, though, there will never be a time where errors in the act of disambiguation are expected, for any title. While someone might spell a title like Hampster with an intentional (but incorrect) "P", one can generally have 100% confidence that a title with a left parenthesis will contain a right parenthesis, and, as an extension, typing in a title that doesn't contain a right parenthesis will have a 0% likelihood of being redirected to the correct title, as it will never be correctly expected. The disambiguator is Wikipedia's "official insertion" onto the title based on other article names that co-exist here. The tagline's format can be safely assumed as error-free, or if there is an error in the disambiguation, that it will be corrected ASAP without hesitation. Being locked into keeping tabs on any and all errors within this "topic title guarantee" inherited from Wikipedia disambiguation precedent, just because of one (or twelve remaining) bad links on the internet, is just not worth for titles that are one punctuation mark away from the correctness that was already assumed beforehand. Utopes ( talk / cont) 01:46, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
b) It doesn't seem anyone wants to see more of these types of redirects created, so wouldn't deleting help with that? (There are people who literally spend all their time looking for pages to create, and having redirects like this to obstensibly compensate for typos in page names will just encourage the creation of more.)
Their usage is a false positive, they don't really assist with anything, removing them will not hamper anyone's ability to search, and if we don't want these types of redirects, then we shouldn't be making a special exception to this group just because they exist.

I think the title makes it obvious why. Yes, it's technically pointing to the correct page, but seriously. I doubt "Sucking peepee" is really an encyclopedic redirect to have. Chaotıċ Enby ( talk · contribs) 23:41, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
perceived lack of neutrality in redirect names is not a sufficient reason for their deletion. Arguments have been made above regarding the likelihood of these as search terms — however, google:"sucking+peepee" tells me that the phrase is one that is in use on the wider Internet, and these therefore strike me as plausible search terms (engaging WP:R#K3). The question I’m asking myself is ‘could these redirects potentially refer to articles besides the current target?’ - and, from what I can see, they seem fairly unambiguous.Would I have created these redirects myself? Probably not. However, are they problematic such that they require deletion? My answer to that question is no — and therefore, my !vote is to keep: just because Wikipedia doesn’t need these redirects doesn’t mean that the project and/or readers are harmed by their existence. To respond to Mathglot’s and Crossroads' concerns regarding potential other redirects being created, pandora’s-box-style arguments are a form of WP:OTHERSTUFF: if such redirects are created, they can be judged on their own merits (including deletion per WP:R#D8 if a
novel or very obscureterm without a mention in the article) - and the currently nominated redirects should be judged on their own merits likewise. All the best, — a smart kitten[ meow 10:50, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
novel or very obscurephrase, and - based on the usage I found from the search - my opinion is that it doesn’t meet that bar. (As a side note, I’m unsure where
49 resultsoriginates from - for me, the search returns ~1,700.) Given the size of the internet, lots of terms could be said to have a usage
functionally equivalentto zero; however, if a redirect from such a term would potentially be helpful, and its existence wouldn’t be problematic, I don’t see why it couldn’t exist - just because a phrase is insignificant compared to the internet as a whole, doesn’t necessarily mean that that phrase is
novel or very obscure. While evidence of usage can be a factor in favour of keeping, a lack of usage is not a reason to delete a redirect. All the best, — a smart kitten[ meow 10:26, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

These 282 "foo LGD" redirects were created in the last two days, on 11 and 12 May 2024. [18] Chocolateediter briefly described their intent as to aid editing "When you have long-ish lists"; [19] they are intended to redirect to UK local government districts, hence the novel initialism "LGD". They have now been used to shorten the targets of piped links, eg changing [[London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham|Hammersmith and Fulham]] to [[Hammersmith and Fulham LGD|Hammersmith and Fulham]] (with 30 other such changes) at London boroughs [20] and similarly with 7 other new redirects at Greater Manchester [21]. This obscures the targets for other editors and does nothing to help readers. "LGD" is not an initialism in common use in the UK and can't be expected to make searching easier for readers.

In 2018, Colonia Ulpia Traiana was redirected to Xanten.

Unicorns are not real. The article makes no mention of unicorns. It would be impossible for a hornless unicorn to be a horse because that would require a fictional creature variant to be real, which it is not and never will be. The target page does not mention unicorns in the slightest. Anyone that specifies "unicorn" instead of "horse" is likely looking for a unicorn related subtopic, instead of the general WP:SYNTH explanation for horse. Unicorn, Unicorn horn, or deletion are all preferable outcomes for this title which currently exists unmentioned at the horse page. Utopes ( talk / cont) 19:44, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

So anyone spouting "it aids navigation" is just fantasizing about something that doesn't even exist in Wikipedia.– @ Grorp: That's quite the lofty claim, and an argument made in bad faith.
...to leave this redirect as-is would violate several Wikipedia key policies such as verifiability, no original research and WP:FRINGE (if not dozens more).– That's factually incorrect, it wouldn't violate any of those policies as a non-derogatory redirect. It's about expected result and possibility of usefulness (even if minor) when a redirect is searched. Hey man im josh ( talk) 14:50, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Nonsense redirects. Bessarabia is a region in Eastern Europe. Budjak is a subset of it. Super Ψ Dro 12:44, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
This is uncited but sounds plausible, and it aligns with the bit in Budjak#Name and geography (i.e., the redirect's target) that uses the name historic Bessarabia. There are sources such as this 1927 book (about the Russian annexation of the province) and this 2019 book (about ethnicity, but summarizing the pre-Russian state, in which Bessarabia was vaguely delimited but generally congruent with Budjak), and "province"+"bessarabia"&pg=PA59&printsec=frontcover this book (which confirms Izmail was part of the province of Bessarabia when the Russians took the province from the Ottomans, before they gave it to Moldovia) that verify at least parts of it. At any rate, though I'm unfamiliar with the history of this area, it appears that it's not "nonsense", but merely a detail of history that is not widely known. Consequently, we should probably keep this redirect, and probably improve the target article. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 01:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC)The Province of Bessarabia or Besarabya pashalyk in Turkish, was an Ottoman province from 1478 to 1812. Its size varied, however by 1600, it included the towns of Cetatea Alba, Izmail, Tighina, and Kilia.
The Ottoman Province of Bassarabia was annexed by the Russian Empire in 1812, along with all Moldovan territory east of the Prut river, which the Russians governed jointly in one single Russian province of Bessarabia.
The Ottoman Province, only, is more or less the same size as the territory of modern-day Bugeac, which is currently part of the Ukrainian Odessa oblast.

Redirects for discussion (RfD) is the place where potentially problematic redirects are discussed. Items usually stay listed for a week or so, after which they are deleted, kept, or retargeted.
Please do not unilaterally rename or change the target of a redirect while it is under discussion. This adds unnecessary complication to the discussion for participants and closers.
Please be aware of these general policies, which apply here as elsewhere:
This page is transcluded from Wikipedia:Redirect/Deletion reasons. ( | history) |
The major reasons why deletion of redirects is harmful are:
Therefore consider the deletion only of either harmful redirects or of recent ones.
You might want to delete a redirect if one or more of the following conditions is met (but note also the exceptions listed below this list):
suppressredirect
user right; available to
page movers and admins), perform a
round-robin move. If not, take the article to
Requested moves.
However, avoid deleting such redirects if:
Just as article titles using non-neutral language
are permitted in some circumstances, so are such redirects. Because redirects are less visible to readers, more latitude is allowed in their names, therefore perceived lack of neutrality in redirect names is not a sufficient reason for their deletion. In most cases, non-neutral but
verifiable redirects should point to neutrally titled articles about the subject of the term. Non-neutral redirects may be tagged with {{
R from non-neutral name}}
.
Non-neutral redirects are commonly created for three reasons:
The exceptions to this rule would be redirects that are not established terms and are unlikely to be useful, and therefore may be nominated for deletion, perhaps under deletion reason #3. However, if a redirect represents an established term that is used in multiple mainstream reliable sources, it should be kept even if non-neutral, as it will facilitate searches on such terms. Please keep in mind that RfD is not the place to resolve most editorial disputes.
Nominations should remain open, per policy, about a week before they are closed, unless they meet the general criteria for speedy deletion, the criteria for speedy deletion of a redirect, or are not valid redirect discussion requests (e.g. are actually move requests).

Disputed speedy deletion that I'm consquently taking here even though it clearly passes the WP:SNOW test. This is a "surname to individual person with it" redirect, except that (a) it isn't even his actual surname, but instead the article was created at Said Hamich despite the subject being more usually credited as Said Hamich Benlarbi, such that every single article connected to the film he just dropped at Cannes a few days ago completely missed that an article existed until I found and moved it, and (b) he isn't even the sole or primary topic for "Hamich" anyway, because every single inbound link that's actually coming here is expecting a German village just outside Aachen that was bombed in World War II. So using this as a single-topic surname redirect isn't appropriate if he isn't the sole topic and the incoming links are all expecting the other one across the board. Bearcat ( talk) 21:40, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
While I was RfDing astounding, I noticed this redirect. Maybe delete as too vague/confusing? (A lot of events could be called an "astounding incident", depending on your point of view, and we don't seem to have articles on either the concepts of astoundingness or incidents either.) Duckmather ( talk) 20:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Yet another confusing vocabulary word redirect, similar to astonishing. I propose retargeting this to either wikt:astounding, with Surprise (emotion) as a second choice due to it being much less of a good match for "astounding". (There are lots of partial title matches by the way.) Duckmather ( talk) 20:27, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

The target of this redirect should likely be reconsidered. The most helpful solution may to turn this into a DAB, merging with Turkish Bath (disambiguation). Reason: The term "Turkish bath" in a Western context is fairly generic and might also denote other types of steam baths, in addition to the mainly Islamic ones covered at Hammam. Since this was last discussed in 2021 (see here), a more fully-fledged Victorian Turkish bath article now exists. Other articles might also be relevant to link. Note: This came out of a discussion at Talk:Turkish Bath (disambiguation) between myself and Ishpoloni. Feel free to read there for more context & explanation.

No mention at target. Until some time back the target was LATAM Airlines which was decided as the priamry topic at this RfD 8 months back. The subject of Latin America didn't come up at the prior RfD, hence I figured this renomination is better than reverting the change by the IP who has also modified LATAM (disambiguation) to make Latin America the primary topic. Revert or agree with the new primary topic? Jay 💬 19:11, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Not completely sure if this redirect is eligible for WP:X3 since both its creator created this redirect not as a {{ R from move}}, and since the acronym listed for the target in the article is "ACS(I)" with no space between the "S" and "(I)" letters. But then again, there is no space between the "C" and "S" letters either, and their words are clearly separate. Vote here is for delete, but bringing it here instead of tagging since I see this as a borderline case per what I have stated. Steel1943 ( talk) 21:12, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

This redirect has targeted Psychological stress, Stressed Out (disambiguation) and Stressed Out, the Twenty One Pilots song. Its was pointing to the DAB from 2019 until last month and I changed it back to the DAB today. In terms of the discussions it seems there is a consensus that the Twenty One Pilots song is primary for the title case version per WP:DIFFCAPS, see discussions at Talk:Stressed Out and an older one at Talk:Stressed Out (A Tribe Called Quest song)#Requested move 26 November 2015. In terms of Psychological stress I understand we aren't a dictionary but at the same time it could be argued that its safest to disambiguate the lower case.

I can see that the redirect target has been changed a couple times recently, so I'm going to bring this to discussion rather than just change it again without consensus. I think this should be retargeted to Get Out, the undisambiguated film article (as was decided with significant support in 2017) and be tagged as {{ R from miscapitalization}}. If we accept that Get Out is PTOPIC (which, of course, I support) then it would make more sense that someone typing those precise words, regardless of capitalization, should be directed to that article. It's where I was expecting to be taken just now when I encountered the dab page instead. Seems pretty cut-and-dry to me. QuietHere ( talk | contributions) 14:08, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Delete. These were created over 20 years ago, very early in Wikipedia's history, possibly when article titling was done differently. There is no substantial history on any of them. Some of them were originally the pages for the book before a move, and some were created as redirects. Apart from that creation/move, there are only some bot/maintenance edits. None of the redirects have any incoming links except for the Cryptonomicon one, which has userspace links on a list of redirects that some user is maintaining. -- superioridad ( discusión) 18:07, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

(disambiguation)which target a page performing a disambiguation-like function (rather than a disambiguation page) are also helpful for linking to Wikidata items. To use this redirect as an example, the French and Italian Wikipedias have a disambiguation page for the term
Dougie, which are both linked to Dougie (Q13364643): Wikimedia disambiguation page. However, as Dougie (given name) is an article about the name & isn't a dab page, it's linked to the Wikidata item about the name itself ( Dougie (Q3037978): male given name). Redirects such as Dougie (disambiguation) are able to be connected to the Wikidata item about the disambiguation page as a sitelink to redirect (as I've just done); and therefore allow readers of the French and Italian Wikipedias to access the enwiki article (that serves a disambiguation-like function) via an interlanguage link.

Having created Wich (disambiguation), I doubt that there is a primary topic of the term, and propose to move the disambiguation page over this redirect. BD2412 T 00:02, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
This was flagged up at
Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation#Searching for "Blagger" currently redirects to a page with no mention of the word. by
user:Oathed with the comment seems weird that it doesn't link or disambig to Blagger (video game). Not sure how to mark a page for "Disambig page needed".
At the very least this does need a hatnote to the video game, but I'm not acutally sure the video game isn't the primary target. Neither the present target nor
Pretexting (linked as the main article) use the term. The only other uses I'm finding (
Blaggers ITA (formerly known as The Blaggers) and
The Blaggers Guide would be at most see-alsos on a dab page.
The video game article was created at this title but moved in March 2018 by
Zxcvbnm with the summary "Merge, in order to disambiguate" but they just changed the redirect target and added a hatnote. The hatnote was
removed without explanation by an IP in 2020, but the mention of "blagging" had been
removed in July 2018 as part of a cull of unreferenced information by
Michaelgt123. None of "blag", "blagging" or "blagger" has ever been included in the
Pretext article.

These redirects were articles created in 2017 by (blocked user) BlackJack, and PRODed by @ Blue Square Thing: in 2019, but redirected by @ Andrew Davidson:. The names of the subjects of the redirects do not appear in the target article, and are never likely to, and do not appear in List of Marylebone Cricket Club players (1787–1826) because that list is for first-class players, which these apparently weren't. It's confusing to have a redirect to a target with zero substantive information about the subject so I recommend delete. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 15:13, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

This redirect was an article for less than an hour. While the Medicare (United States) article does mention "Medicare's problems" relating to fiscal policy, they are not the same "problems" ("coverage limitations") mentioned in the WP:BLARed article. Additionally, "Medicare" may also refer to the Canadian and Australian systems, each of which surely has its own problems. I think this is a figurative WP:XY case, and this redirect should be deleted; there are just too many things its title could mean.

Well, in for a penny, in for a pound... this nomination consists of every remaining redirect with unclosed parenthesis, of which there are now only twelve. All of these typos are not plausible to intentionally make on their own. Because there's been cumulatively 1000+ or so of these redirect types deleted over the last few months, this nomination seeks to determine whether there's a threshold that makes these redirects acceptable, or if one even exists. Most of these redirects have come to exist through erroneous links, which are updateable. While it's good to have redirects from common misspellings lying around for ease of navigation on Wikipedia, the presence of implausible redirect errors sets unreasonable expectations and portrays the faulty notion to readers that "infinite typo variations are encouraged, regardless of likelihood", when this is not currently the case. For the most part, spelling variations are accepted in redirects; especially with words that are tricky to spell, having a set of titles with minor differences can be useful to capture likely, intentional errors. When it pertains to disambiguation, though, there will never be a time where errors in the act of disambiguation are expected, for any title. While someone might spell a title like Hampster with an intentional (but incorrect) "P", one can generally have 100% confidence that a title with a left parenthesis will contain a right parenthesis, and, as an extension, typing in a title that doesn't contain a right parenthesis will have a 0% likelihood of being redirected to the correct title, as it will never be correctly expected. The disambiguator is Wikipedia's "official insertion" onto the title based on other article names that co-exist here. The tagline's format can be safely assumed as error-free, or if there is an error in the disambiguation, that it will be corrected ASAP without hesitation. Being locked into keeping tabs on any and all errors within this "topic title guarantee" inherited from Wikipedia disambiguation precedent, just because of one (or twelve remaining) bad links on the internet, is just not worth for titles that are one punctuation mark away from the correctness that was already assumed beforehand. Utopes ( talk / cont) 01:46, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
b) It doesn't seem anyone wants to see more of these types of redirects created, so wouldn't deleting help with that? (There are people who literally spend all their time looking for pages to create, and having redirects like this to obstensibly compensate for typos in page names will just encourage the creation of more.)
Their usage is a false positive, they don't really assist with anything, removing them will not hamper anyone's ability to search, and if we don't want these types of redirects, then we shouldn't be making a special exception to this group just because they exist.

I think the title makes it obvious why. Yes, it's technically pointing to the correct page, but seriously. I doubt "Sucking peepee" is really an encyclopedic redirect to have. Chaotıċ Enby ( talk · contribs) 23:41, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
perceived lack of neutrality in redirect names is not a sufficient reason for their deletion. Arguments have been made above regarding the likelihood of these as search terms — however, google:"sucking+peepee" tells me that the phrase is one that is in use on the wider Internet, and these therefore strike me as plausible search terms (engaging WP:R#K3). The question I’m asking myself is ‘could these redirects potentially refer to articles besides the current target?’ - and, from what I can see, they seem fairly unambiguous.Would I have created these redirects myself? Probably not. However, are they problematic such that they require deletion? My answer to that question is no — and therefore, my !vote is to keep: just because Wikipedia doesn’t need these redirects doesn’t mean that the project and/or readers are harmed by their existence. To respond to Mathglot’s and Crossroads' concerns regarding potential other redirects being created, pandora’s-box-style arguments are a form of WP:OTHERSTUFF: if such redirects are created, they can be judged on their own merits (including deletion per WP:R#D8 if a
novel or very obscureterm without a mention in the article) - and the currently nominated redirects should be judged on their own merits likewise. All the best, — a smart kitten[ meow 10:50, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
novel or very obscurephrase, and - based on the usage I found from the search - my opinion is that it doesn’t meet that bar. (As a side note, I’m unsure where
49 resultsoriginates from - for me, the search returns ~1,700.) Given the size of the internet, lots of terms could be said to have a usage
functionally equivalentto zero; however, if a redirect from such a term would potentially be helpful, and its existence wouldn’t be problematic, I don’t see why it couldn’t exist - just because a phrase is insignificant compared to the internet as a whole, doesn’t necessarily mean that that phrase is
novel or very obscure. While evidence of usage can be a factor in favour of keeping, a lack of usage is not a reason to delete a redirect. All the best, — a smart kitten[ meow 10:26, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

These 282 "foo LGD" redirects were created in the last two days, on 11 and 12 May 2024. [18] Chocolateediter briefly described their intent as to aid editing "When you have long-ish lists"; [19] they are intended to redirect to UK local government districts, hence the novel initialism "LGD". They have now been used to shorten the targets of piped links, eg changing [[London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham|Hammersmith and Fulham]] to [[Hammersmith and Fulham LGD|Hammersmith and Fulham]] (with 30 other such changes) at London boroughs [20] and similarly with 7 other new redirects at Greater Manchester [21]. This obscures the targets for other editors and does nothing to help readers. "LGD" is not an initialism in common use in the UK and can't be expected to make searching easier for readers.

Indian films sometimes do this thing were they reshoot 10% or less of the film in another language. Either way, there is absolutely no need for this redirect when Baak (film) exists. only 10% or less of people interest seeing Aranmanai 4 will likely opt to see this version due to low key release.

A topic not discussed at the target page, as "supple" nor "supplement" ever appear at the target page. Was BLAR'd in 2017 as being based on almost entirely unreliable sources, but does not serve its purpose as a good redirect if there is no content to be read about this at PageRank.

Unicorns are not real. The article makes no mention of unicorns. It would be impossible for a hornless unicorn to be a horse because that would require a fictional creature variant to be real, which it is not and never will be. The target page does not mention unicorns in the slightest. Anyone that specifies "unicorn" instead of "horse" is likely looking for a unicorn related subtopic, instead of the general WP:SYNTH explanation for horse. Unicorn, Unicorn horn, or deletion are all preferable outcomes for this title which currently exists unmentioned at the horse page. Utopes ( talk / cont) 19:44, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

So anyone spouting "it aids navigation" is just fantasizing about something that doesn't even exist in Wikipedia.– @ Grorp: That's quite the lofty claim, and an argument made in bad faith.
...to leave this redirect as-is would violate several Wikipedia key policies such as verifiability, no original research and WP:FRINGE (if not dozens more).– That's factually incorrect, it wouldn't violate any of those policies as a non-derogatory redirect. It's about expected result and possibility of usefulness (even if minor) when a redirect is searched. Hey man im josh ( talk) 14:50, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Nonsense redirects. Bessarabia is a region in Eastern Europe. Budjak is a subset of it. Super Ψ Dro 12:44, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
This is uncited but sounds plausible, and it aligns with the bit in Budjak#Name and geography (i.e., the redirect's target) that uses the name historic Bessarabia. There are sources such as this 1927 book (about the Russian annexation of the province) and this 2019 book (about ethnicity, but summarizing the pre-Russian state, in which Bessarabia was vaguely delimited but generally congruent with Budjak), and "province"+"bessarabia"&pg=PA59&printsec=frontcover this book (which confirms Izmail was part of the province of Bessarabia when the Russians took the province from the Ottomans, before they gave it to Moldovia) that verify at least parts of it. At any rate, though I'm unfamiliar with the history of this area, it appears that it's not "nonsense", but merely a detail of history that is not widely known. Consequently, we should probably keep this redirect, and probably improve the target article. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 01:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC)The Province of Bessarabia or Besarabya pashalyk in Turkish, was an Ottoman province from 1478 to 1812. Its size varied, however by 1600, it included the towns of Cetatea Alba, Izmail, Tighina, and Kilia.
The Ottoman Province of Bassarabia was annexed by the Russian Empire in 1812, along with all Moldovan territory east of the Prut river, which the Russians governed jointly in one single Russian province of Bessarabia.
The Ottoman Province, only, is more or less the same size as the territory of modern-day Bugeac, which is currently part of the Ukrainian Odessa oblast.

The addition of "Freeze" means that it can't be confused with Live at Tokyo Dome, but despite that, without a mention of this lyric, we don't have anything for readers that search the specific lyric of "everybody clap your hands" instead of the song itself. Utopes ( talk / cont) 23:49, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
basically the only one in the entire songWa-huh?? The Cha Cha Slide is basically nothing BUT lyrics, associated dance moves, a backing beat, and after the line Cha-Cha now, y'all, a short funky sting. Have you been listening to the same song I have??The main issue is that the song isn't referred to as the "Cha-Cha Slide" in the lyrics-- it's referred to as the Casper Slide Part 2.
