Retarget to
Abe Cabinet, which covers the various times that either
Shinzo Abe or
Nobuyuki Abe formed a government. Compare Bush government and Adams government. No
WP:RS use this phrase to refer to Abraham Lincoln's government (1800s Google Books hits are almost OCR errors (save one mention of "Honest Abe's government"
[1], for which "Abe government" is barely even a
WP:PTM; 1900s hits are about Nobuyuki
[2] except for one about
Abe Masahiro; and 2000s hits are about Shinzo
[3]) and thus it should not be added to the Abe Cabinet dab page.

Retarget to
Abe Cabinet as this lists Shinzo Abe's governments (plus one other which probably isn't a primary topic but no harm comes from having it there obviously...). I do wonder if something should be added to that page though to mention that they are related to Shinzo Abe since he is not actually mentioned anywhere in that page?

TraderCharlotte (

Keep. The Mount Vernon Ladies Association often refers to the estate as "Historic Mount Vernon"
[4] and it has some traction outside of them
[5]. It seems like a few localities/neighborhoods sometimes use that term but most with historic as a modifier and not a name. So I think this is a potentially useful search helper.

Mdewman6 (

The draft underneath at
93 FM and the draft at
DRAFT:93.0 FM are two different topics. "93 FM" is a page listing radio stations advertising as 93 on the FM dial, while "93.0 FM" is for radio stations that actually occupy 93.0MHz. There are many stations that do not reside at exactly 93.0MHz but which advertise that they are 93 on the dial, and for which, you can usually have reception at 93 on the dial. (such as 92.9 or 93.1). An entry at
93 FM for
93.0 FM would interlink the two. --

Comment there is no need to reconcile the two different SIA pages. They can exist as they are and all that is needed is to interlink the two pages, with a see also to each other. The two different SIA pages represent two different topics, one "radio stations representing themselves as 93 on the FM dial" existing at
93 FM (which do not necessarily broadcast at 93.0MHz, but also broadcast at similar frequencies, such as 92.9MHz and 93.1MHz), and the second "FM radio stations broadcasting at 93.0MHz" which exists at
DRAFT: 93.0 FM . --
64.229.88.43 (

I see, you want set indexes at both
93 FM and
93.0 FM. So
Draft:93.0 FM is really a separate issue, and a lot of confusion was created by the one IP creating both a draft in response to another IP's comment and then drafting a separate set index to replace the redirect. I have revised my comment above.
Mdewman6 (
talk) 19:17, 10 July 2022 (UTC)reply
That said, there is the existing precedent of
95 FM and
97 FM simply being redirects to
95.0 FM and
97.0 FM, respectively, rather than being separate SIAs. Going forward, all of these should be treated analogously. If we end up with a setindex at 93 FM, we should strive to create SIAs over the other analogous redirects.

My computer can't even render this one, but based on the other alchemical redirects created by this editor (see below), I imagine that it is likely an alchemical sign. Delete unless evidence can be found that this sign unambiguously refers to melting. signed, Rosguilltalk 18:22, 11 June 2022 (UTC)reply
@
Rosguill According to a google search this emoji is a "melting face".

Thanks for the correction, I see it
here as well. I guess it's relatively unambiguous, but it still doesn't seem particularly useful to readers and would lean towards deletion, redirecting to
Emoji, or redirecting to a unicode block. signed, Rosguilltalk 18:26, 11 June 2022 (UTC)reply
I would agree that deletion is probably the best outcome per
WP:REMOJI. "someone's face melting" is not an actual encyclopaedic topic and it's rather ambiguous, the current target isn't really a good fit, I imagine most people would use it to refer to warm weather,
hyperthermia or something similar.

Don't keep. How does a "melting face" emoji relate to the physical process of melting? Faces are not literally undergoing a change in state from solid to liquid. Seems like an inappropriate target to me. Delete or retarget.
Mdewman6 (

The emoji
is showing a representation of a face undergoing a change in state from solid to liquid as if it were an ice cube. I mean, there's a puddle around the partially-melted face... --
Tavix(

And someone would be seeking the content at
Melting by using this emoji? It's only mainspace links are from articles about Emojis. Based on the external links, it is being used figuratively, to suggest someone is hot, or some other feeling, not the literal physical process. In terms of actual processes, could possibly also mean
Dissolution.
Mdewman6 (
talk) 20:30, 13 June 2022 (UTC)reply
Taking the examples of past Rfds linked at
WP:REMOJI, we keep redirects from emojis for which there is an article about the specific thing depicted by the emoji, and otherwise we tend toward deletion. We do not have an article on
Face melting or
Melting face or similar (nor should we be expected to).
Mdewman6 (
talk) 23:54, 13 June 2022 (UTC)reply
Keep. The emoji is a melting face emoji so
Melting seems like a good target. If a better one is proposed, please ping me. Regardless of target, emoji redirects should never be deleted. Worst case, redirect to
Emoji or to the specific block.

Melting is a good target for this emoji, and contrary to what both editors above have stated, I don't see any problem with keeping this as long as it redirects to the current target.

Keep. The Mount Vernon Ladies Association often refers to the estate as "Historic Mount Vernon"
[4] and it has some traction outside of them
[5]. It seems like a few localities/neighborhoods sometimes use that term but most with historic as a modifier and not a name. So I think this is a potentially useful search helper.

Mdewman6 (

The draft underneath at
93 FM and the draft at
DRAFT:93.0 FM are two different topics. "93 FM" is a page listing radio stations advertising as 93 on the FM dial, while "93.0 FM" is for radio stations that actually occupy 93.0MHz. There are many stations that do not reside at exactly 93.0MHz but which advertise that they are 93 on the dial, and for which, you can usually have reception at 93 on the dial. (such as 92.9 or 93.1). An entry at
93 FM for
93.0 FM would interlink the two. --

Comment there is no need to reconcile the two different SIA pages. They can exist as they are and all that is needed is to interlink the two pages, with a see also to each other. The two different SIA pages represent two different topics, one "radio stations representing themselves as 93 on the FM dial" existing at
93 FM (which do not necessarily broadcast at 93.0MHz, but also broadcast at similar frequencies, such as 92.9MHz and 93.1MHz), and the second "FM radio stations broadcasting at 93.0MHz" which exists at
DRAFT: 93.0 FM . --
64.229.88.43 (

I see, you want set indexes at both
93 FM and
93.0 FM. So
Draft:93.0 FM is really a separate issue, and a lot of confusion was created by the one IP creating both a draft in response to another IP's comment and then drafting a separate set index to replace the redirect. I have revised my comment above.
Mdewman6 (
talk) 19:17, 10 July 2022 (UTC)reply
That said, there is the existing precedent of
95 FM and
97 FM simply being redirects to
95.0 FM and
97.0 FM, respectively, rather than being separate SIAs. Going forward, all of these should be treated analogously. If we end up with a setindex at 93 FM, we should strive to create SIAs over the other analogous redirects.

Eating babies redirect to the same target should also be created...

Old Apple likely represents the transition between Apple Computer and Apple Inc. when during the second tenure of Steve Jobs, the company transitioned from being a computer company to being a personal electronics and entertainment distribution company, with the introduction of the iPod. --

Delete – A transient term used colloquially during a brief period of time decades ago. And that's being generous. Anyone looking for Apple Inc. is going to search for Apple, not these other words, which take historical research to even know what they mean. Senator2029【talk】 17:13, 12 July 2022 (UTC)reply

This appears to refer to a specific class of stock shares for Gamestop; every public corporation has classes of shares, but we don't need additional redirects for these. Maybe it's appropriate for Gamestop, because of the past history relating to it's stock, but I'm not sure.
TraderCharlotte (

Keep Actually very few companies have more than one class of shares, and this specific class is mentioned both in the infobox and the template at the bottom of the article. Previous RfD discussion has kept other companies' share class redirects when the infobox condition is met. 15,800 Google results for this exact phrase suggest it is a plausible search term.

My computer can't even render this one, but based on the other alchemical redirects created by this editor (see below), I imagine that it is likely an alchemical sign. Delete unless evidence can be found that this sign unambiguously refers to melting. signed, Rosguilltalk 18:22, 11 June 2022 (UTC)reply
@
Rosguill According to a google search this emoji is a "melting face".

Thanks for the correction, I see it
here as well. I guess it's relatively unambiguous, but it still doesn't seem particularly useful to readers and would lean towards deletion, redirecting to
Emoji, or redirecting to a unicode block. signed, Rosguilltalk 18:26, 11 June 2022 (UTC)reply
I would agree that deletion is probably the best outcome per
WP:REMOJI. "someone's face melting" is not an actual encyclopaedic topic and it's rather ambiguous, the current target isn't really a good fit, I imagine most people would use it to refer to warm weather,
hyperthermia or something similar.

Don't keep. How does a "melting face" emoji relate to the physical process of melting? Faces are not literally undergoing a change in state from solid to liquid. Seems like an inappropriate target to me. Delete or retarget.
Mdewman6 (

The emoji
is showing a representation of a face undergoing a change in state from solid to liquid as if it were an ice cube. I mean, there's a puddle around the partially-melted face... --
Tavix(

And someone would be seeking the content at
Melting by using this emoji? It's only mainspace links are from articles about Emojis. Based on the external links, it is being used figuratively, to suggest someone is hot, or some other feeling, not the literal physical process. In terms of actual processes, could possibly also mean
Dissolution.
Mdewman6 (

Taking the examples of past Rfds linked at
WP:REMOJI, we keep redirects from emojis for which there is an article about the specific thing depicted by the emoji, and otherwise we tend toward deletion. We do not have an article on
Face melting or
Melting face or similar (nor should we be expected to).
Mdewman6 (
talk) 23:54, 13 June 2022 (UTC)reply
Keep. The emoji is a melting face emoji so
Melting seems like a good target. If a better one is proposed, please ping me. Regardless of target, emoji redirects should never be deleted. Worst case, redirect to
Emoji or to the specific block.

I don't follow the reasoning for never be deleted. I've seen several editors assert this, but it's not clear to me why this should be the case. signed, Rosguilltalk 23:59, 13 June 2022 (UTC)reply

The idea isn't to look up articles by emojis, but to look up emojis by themselves – an unfamiliar/unrenderable emoji is not an implausible search term. --

Keep per Tavix and Gonnym. I also think that
Melting is a good target for this emoji, and contrary to what both editors above have stated, I don't see any problem with keeping this as long as it redirects to the current target.
