• Potsy Ponciroli → Colt Ford discography#Music videos  ( talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure:  keep/ retarget/ delete ] 

Suggesting deletion. Ponciroli is the director of encyclopedic films such as Old Henry and Greedy People, and co-creator of television series Still the King, yet the page currently is a redirect to Colt Ford discography#Music videos, which makes little to no sense. Per WP:REDLINK a redlink would be more useful, as it would encourage editors to create the page. Cavarrone 08:04, 27 February 2024 (UTC) reply

• Delete per nom. A7V2 ( talk) 23:35, 27 February 2024 (UTC) reply
• Delete per nom. As far as I can tell, current target is because Potsy directed the music videos for several of Colt Ford's songs. However, I'd say that the two films and one TV series you mentioned are far more noteable than some music videos. WP:REDLINK is the way to go here.

• Keep or create article - Most of Ponciroli's work is with Colt Ford. An article should be created for this person. -- Jax 0677 ( talk) 23:51, 3 March 2024 (UTC) reply

  @ Jax 0677, the music videos are non notable and unremarkable, and are definitely the least significant works in Ponciroli's resume. Your redirect has likely prevented the page from having been already created. Cavarrone 07:54, 4 March 2024 (UTC) reply

  • Reply - My redirect cannot prevent an article fr9m being created. -- Jax 0677 ( talk) 14:34, 4 March 2024 (UTC) reply

    Picture the following three scenarios.

    • An editor looks at the name 'Potsy Ponciroli' in an article. It is black. The editor scrolls past, safe in the idea that Potsy has been deemed non-notable and does not need an article.
    • An editor looks at the name 'Potsy Ponciroli' in an article. It is blue. The editor scrolls past, safe in the idea that everything notable about Potsy has already been written, and move on with their lives.
    • An editor looks at the name 'Potsy Ponciroli' in an article. It is red. They click it, and Wikipedia itself says "Hey! We don't have an article here! Please make an article!" They spend the next 30 minutes or so researching Potsy and writing a stub. Over time, this stub evolves into an article.

    This is why WP:REDLINK, while not mentioning Redirects once in the article itself, is commonly cited as a reason to delete redirects. A redirect has the effect of preventing editors from writing articles, simply by existing. A comment stating that a redirect should be deleted "as per WP:REDLINK" is a comment that states, "Hey, whatever the article is currently pointing to has little to no notable information about this topic, but while I don't have it myself, I think there might be notable information somewhere. Thus, I think this redirect should be deleted and replaced with a redlink, which might flag down an editor to write a much-needed article."

No mention on target page. These are presumably all mobs/bosses in Terraria, but no individual mobs/bosses are mentioned there. (Bear with me while I nominate and batch the lot.) That's all, folks! Additionally, at least one of them (Deerclops) is incorrectly targetted in the first place (this is originally a Don't Starve monster and appeared in Terraria as a crossover). asilvering ( talk) 22:30, 5 March 2024 (UTC) reply

• NB: Turkor the Ungreatful, Eye of Cthulu, and Brain of Cthulu are misspelled; the correct spellings are "Ungrateful" and "Cthulhu". – dudhhr  ^talk _contribs^she_her 22:49, 5 March 2024 (UTC) reply

• Delete all as per "We're not Bulbapedia"-- We're not the Terraria Wiki, either. If it's not even notable enough to show up in the target article, we probably don't need the redirect.

  I don't think WP:FANCRUFT applies here as these are merely redirects not actual articles. GoldenBootWizard276 ( talk) 07:34, 6 March 2024 (UTC) reply

  They're... indirectly fancruft? Here's the thing about these redirects-- if someone actually wants to plug "Skeletron" into the search bar, and mean the Terraria boss, they're NOT going to be satisfied by the article on the game itself, they're going to want some information on Skeletron. And the issue with THAT is, actually adding information on Skeletron WOULD be fancruft. Thus, we shouldn't add information on Skeletron... and shouldn't retain these redirects, because anyone using them wouldn't be satisfied with what they find.

Film was never released in 2017 or 2018, so propose deletion per WP:RDELETE#D2 as misleading/potential for confusion. The traffic dropped to zero after I removed the final link to the 2018 redirect at the end of last year. 2pou ( talk) 21:42, 26 February 2024 (UTC) reply

• Weak keep the 2018 redirect, as the film was scheduled to be released in 2018 before being pushed back to 2019 (although the traffic has dropped to essentially zero pageviews). Delete the 2017 one, as I can't find any evidence of plans to release it in that year. Regards, SONIC 678 17:45, 27 February 2024 (UTC) reply
• Keep the 2018 redirect as it was definitely originally scheduled to be released in 2018, making it a plausible way to search for this. When created, the article initially gave a 2017 date ( [1]) but I'm unsure if a reference exists for this, so I am neutral on the 2017 redirect for now.
