• Shen Menglu → Shen Mengyu  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

This is a misapplied redirect: Shen Mengyu and Shen Menglu are two different people, both footballers who happen to play for the same club at present. Not sure if Menglu would be eligible for an article at present, but this redirect is just incorrect so should be deleted leaving the redlink, can't see any other way round it. Crowsus ( talk) 21:59, 9 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Ah, wow. When I came across the redlink for Shen Minglu back in January, I had no idea she was a different player from Shen Mingyu, and thought it was simply an error in the reporting! Chinese expatriate footballers usually have a fair amount of coverage, so when I get home later today, I’ll have a look and see if Shen Minglu has enough coverage for GNG. Sorry! Davidlofgren1996 ( talk) 10:41, 10 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  @ Crowsus Okay I've gone through and added information to the article, I believe Shen meets GNG pretty comfortably with significant coverage in China. Davidlofgren1996 ( talk) 12:05, 11 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Ferry Pier Terminus → Tuen Mun Ferry Pier stop  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

While I think this title is a bit vague/ambiguous, apparently it was the historic name for the article it currently points to. When I first saw this, I thought of San Francisco Ferry Building. Could probably refer to other ferry terminals as well. Not too sure what to do, possibly a hatnote or otherwise on the target page to fix the ambiguity? Or dab page?

• Keep as WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT, given this was the exact name on the signboard, all the Google Books hits are about this one [1] and I cannot find any other examples of this exact name in title case being used to refer to other places. WP:PTMs like Tsing Yi Ferry Terminus, Hung Hom Ferry Pier Bus Terminus, or North Point Ferry Pier Bus Terminus might be worth a {{ redirect-distinguish}} hatnote at most. 59.149.117.119 ( talk) 01:10, 29 August 2023 (UTC) reply

• Minister of Helth → Minister for Health and Aged Care  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

• Retarget to Doug Everingham, per Tamzin's comment in the previous discussion. Everingham referred to himself officially as the "Minister of Helth", owing to his support for a series of spelling reform proposals that were not adopted. He is the only person to have used this title with this peculiar spelling in an official capacity. A hatnote could point to Minister of Health (disambiguation), if that page existed (I'm not sure why it doesn't, there are many countries with a Minister of Health). There's no reason I can see for this to redirect to the current target. Ivanvector ( ^Talk/ _Edits) 17:28, 9 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  A disambiguation page probably doesn't exist because there's already a set index located at Health minister which does the job of listing and distinguishing between roles sharing that title in different countries. That set index is the target for Minister of Health. I'm not sure what the guidelines are about having titles including "(disambiguation)" redirect to set indices. I suspect it's discouraged given WP:SETNOTDAB explicitly says that set index articles are not disambiguation pages.

  If I recall correctly Mdewman6 argued that Everingham did not refer to himself as "Minister of Health", but rather "for Health". ( WP:SMALLDETAILS) I don't know whether Everingham, the press, or ordinary Australians actually have/had an especially strong preference for phrasing it "for" rather than "of". However, search results for "Minister+of+Health" are all generic misspellings whereas "Minister+for+Helth" yields results particular to Australia; perhaps the difference does matter? – Scyrme ( talk) 18:20, 9 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  Set index articles are freaking confusing. But I've added a redirect casualdejekyll 19:00, 12 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  @ Casualdejekyll: Are you sure it's not discouraged by the guidelines? If it's not discouraged, maybe Health minister (disambiguation) should also exist? I had thought of making both myself, but I didn't want to rush ahead in-case someone replied with relevant info (such as guidelines or precedents like long-standing examples or RfDs that have dealt with this before). – Scyrme ( talk) 18:11, 13 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  I don't know either. But having both an SIA and a disambig is probably duplicate effort - they're extremely similar and in this specific case I'm not even sure that there's a difference. casualdejekyll 20:06, 13 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  I don't know if there an official guideline, but WP:G14 says pages with (disambiguation) in the title can be deleted if they do not "redirect to a disambiguation page or a page that performs a disambiguation-like function" (emphasis added). In this case the set index clearly does perform a disambiguation-like function, so redirecting to it from (disambiguation) titles should be fine. Ivanvector ( ^Talk/ _Edits) 20:12, 13 September 2023 (UTC) reply

  "or a page that performs a disambiguation-like function" sounds good enough to me. I've made the redirect. – Scyrme ( talk) 20:38, 13 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Retarget to Health Minister as a {{ R from misspelling}} and {{ R from avoided double redirect}} of Minister of Health. Indeed, during the last Rfd I updated the sources and statements at Doug Everingham and Minister for Health and Aged Care which use the terms "Minister for Helth" and "Department of Helth". There is no support for ascribing these other versions specifically to the Australian topics, so should be retargeted as misspellings. Mdewman6 ( talk) 18:59, 9 September 2023 (UTC) reply

• Keep we already have WP:VPR, VPP has a long standing use (over 15 year) with almost 5000 links in. There is also already a navbox at the top of VPP that goes to VPR, so it wouldn't save the lost editor any clicks to land on a disambig page first. "No primary topic" primarily applies to content pages - for the benefit of casual readers - not really helpful here. — xaosflux ^Talk 15:12, 9 September 2023 (UTC) reply
