the book and the film each has its own article, so the two articles should not share the same talk page. 199.71.174.100 04:28, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Concord spiders → Concord High School (North Carolina)

edit

Poorly-named redirect for the name of the high school's athletics teams. It isn't linked to, and I only made the redirect since it was easy enough to merge the two articles without taking the original to AfD. fuzzy510 00:30, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cross name-space redirect already covered by WP:MOSDAB. All were created on 3 February 2006 and only MoS:DAB is even used and it only has 10 links. -- JLaTondre 21:58, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have re-thought this based upon the comments received and decided that MOS: is little different than the WP: syntax. Therefore, I am withdrawing all but the four William Allen Simpson suggested as I don't believe those are needed either. -- JLaTondre 14:33, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cross name-space redirect already covered by WP:MOSBIO. Created 29 March 2006 and only has 10 links. -- JLaTondre 21:58, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep -- probably 1010 in edit summaries. --William Allen Simpson 01:58, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • 1010 must be an exaggeration, since the redirect was only created in March. Keeping based on use in edit summaries seems like a back door reason to keep a redirect that would otherwise be deleted. What's to keep someone from creating a bogus redirect, and then using it in edit summaries, and then using that fact as a reason to keep? Lbbzman 13:50, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

MTUT → Purgatory

edit

Redirect is nonsensical; given the nature of the target subject, probably an in-joke of some sort. From a cursory Google search, it would seem that "MTUT" is mentioned nowhere else on Wikipedia and only as non-purgatory-related acronyms and handles elsewhere on the web. The submitter has only made a few other edits, none of which relate to or explain the acronym. 80.202.100.70 21:35, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bob Crowley → R. T. Crowley

edit

Redirects to R. T. Crowley page, which is irrelevant to the context which Bob Crowley links come from. Bob Crowley is a Broadway Costume Designer, R. T. Crowley a technology innovator. E Man Speaks 06:20, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: If R.T. Crowley's first name is "Robert" then, presumably some people may refer to him as "Bob". If that is true, this should probably be kept until such time as the costume designer article can be written over top of the redirect, in which case we would want a dablink at the top of the page, saying something like For the [other guy], see R. T. Crowley. — Jun. 4, '06 [08:30] <freak|talk>

VoteFair ranking → Kemeny-Young method

edit

The term "VoteFair ranking" for the Kemeny-Young method is needlessly POV. Wikipedia's aim is to describe alternative election methods and not to promote them. Furthermore, the term "VoteFair ranking" is used only by User:VoteFair. This term is used for the Kemeny-Young method nowhere else. Markus Schulze 08:32, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Comparing [1] with [2] suggests that it is a reasonable redirect. --Henrygb 01:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There are about 1000 Google hits for "VoteFair" and about 300 Google hits for "Kemeny Young". But when we look more closely at these hits, then we see that the Google hits for "VoteFair" are mainly only posts to Internet forums written only by a single person. However, there is not a single scientific paper or scientific website that uses the term "VoteFair". On the other side, the Google hits for "Kemeny Young" contain a large number of scientific papers and scientific websites. Markus Schulze 09:14, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am the person who created the VoteFair ranking page. I am requesting that the VoteFair ranking page be retained as a redirect page. It should redirect to Kemeny-Young method.

As noted above, a Google search returns 1000 matches for VoteFair ranking. I have been using the term "VoteFair ranking" for about a decade, and it is used in many places, including my recently published book titled "Ending The Hidden Unfairness In U.S. Elections", and my website at VoteFair.org (which is visited by thousands of unique/different American Idol fans).

Here are the Wikipedia guidelines that support my request:

However, avoid deleting such redirects if:

3. They aid searches on certain terms.

5. Someone finds them useful. Hint: If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do. You might not find it useful — this is not because the other person is a liar, but because you browse Wikipedia in different ways.

In case it is relevant regarding deletion, the Kemeny-Young method discussion page now explains why I created the new VoteFair ranking page.

Survey - articles for deletion

edit
  • AfD and VfD were deleted and then replaced with a redirect to AFD and VFD, whereas before they were directed to WP:AFD, concerning the Manual of Style keeps that have occured here, should not these also be directed to Articles for Deletion ? 132.205.44.134 23:34, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • No, the MOS: is a specific syntax. These fall into the same category as AN/I (see nomination below) and other Wikipedia acronyms (see the RFD archives) where the result has been to do exactly what was done with these redirects (send to a disambig page with a dablink to the Wikipedia: page).

Guidelines for the spelling of names of Polish rulers → List of Polish monarchs

edit

Creates the confusing impression that a main namespace article is a spelling or naming conventions "guideline" in the project namespace sense.

Kady Goldlist → ONE Family Fund

edit

A bit of a mess. The creation of the redirect was a result of an AFD, but in hindsight there seems no benefit (indeed, no rhyme or reason) to the redirect since Ms Goldlist is not mentioned in the article (and seems not notable enough to be added). The redirect has already been blanked once by another contributor (I found it as an empty page). Arguably the AFD's "merge" consensus has been satisfied, because one of the external links on the ONE Family Fund article has a reference to Kady Goldlist as a donor.

Paul Kitchen → Rothesay Netherwood School

edit

Was previously up for deletion as non-notable. It was changed to a redirect instead of deletion. Paul Kitchen is the current head of the school.

  • Keep and just don't link to it. Anyone who searches for Paul Kitchen might benefit from the school's article, so it's good. It also helps prevent recreation of that article. --Rory096 20:02, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kepone toxin → Kepone

edit

Kepone is poison, but is not a toxin (see the toxin article why, kepone is synthetic. Unlikely search target. No links. No useful history (only pagemove redirect, fix and rfd. Polonium 23:40, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No. Kepone is not a toxin. This redirect is activly harmful, because it claims that kepone is a toxin. The redirect should be deleted and the page protected to prevent recreation. Polonium 23:20, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the toxin article says people use the word to describe all poisons, whether they be organic or synthetic. If some people think that should be discouraged, I think the redirect (which deletes an occurrence of "toxin") actually helps in this case. --KJ 02:06, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
So we should delete Dubya to discourage references to Bush as Dubya? Terminological errors like these are the reason we have redirects. Saying this title endorses the categorisation of Kepone as a toxin is like saying the existence of Dubya endorses calling Bush by that nickname or that the existence of misspelling redirects endorse the misspelling of certain names.

Acucullophallia → Circumcision

edit

Made-up term does not exist in any dictionary, save dubious 'web dictionaries' Jakew 13:39, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • After looking at websites I never want to see again, it's a slang term meaning sexual arousal by circumcison. :\ It probably should be deleted'. And if notable, gain a page. Yanksox 05:05, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per User:Dabljuh/teusp and discussion at Talk:Circumcision. — Scm83x hook 'em 20:08, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The word appears in at least one well-known printed book (cited at circumcision, unless Jakew has recently culled it). Also, note that above there seems to have been some confusion between acucullophallia (the redirect page) and acucullophilia, a different word which means "sexual arousal by circumcision." Acucullophallia means "the state of being circumcised", so the redirect is quite sensible. Further, the redirect seems to be needed, as it was created as a requested article. LWizard @ 07:07, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep Both web and print citations show that the word exists and is a synonym for "circumcised". The hostility towards this term stems from confusion with "acucullophilia", which refers to a fetish for circumcised men. This confusion has been cleared up on the circumcision page, which now briefly mentions both terms in the lead. Of course, this mention is further reason to keep the redirect. Al 14:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Actually, the 'hostility' stems from no such thing - there's no indication that there is or was any confusion between the two. The objection to the term is as stated - that no definition can be found in any credible dictionary (the term is mentioned in passing in one book, but is not defined). So we are left with the situation that we have no reliable source telling us what it means - hence it should not be included. Jakew 15:54, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Unfortunately, this is simply false. We know exactly what it means and there is no doubt whatsoever on this issue. Worse, you know it's false, so this appears to be intentional deception. Al 16:26, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • If there is no doubt as to what it means, then why are you unable to cite a WP:RS giving a definition? Why do you insist instead upon citing a 'source' to support the claimed definition that does not even define the term? Jakew 16:32, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • I listed three on the talk page. Your response, of course, is to deny that they're WP:RS and then to ignore the etymology on top of that. This is not an honest response. Al 18:48, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • I agree - I did indeed state that they were not reliable sources. Furthermore, the theory of the etymology is original research (partly my own), and cannot therefore be included. Finally, please review WP:CIVIL and WP:FAITH. Accusing me of dishonesty is unacceptable behaviour, whether you agree with my views or not. Jakew 18:58, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BJAODN → Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense

edit

Cross-namespace redirect; a self reference. Also nominating Bjaodn. Invitatious 17:33, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Many pages currently link here, and the only reason anyone would type "BJAODN", as far as I can think of, is to get to Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense. As such, I wouldn't consider this self-reference. IMO, it would only be self-reference if the search term were something in real life, such as if Sandbox redirected to Wikipedia:Sandbox (which it doesn't). Timrem 18:56, 10 June 2006 (UTC) Delete - I thought I had read WP:ASR thouroughly, but I must have missed that redirects from articlespace to Wikipedia namespace are considered self-reference. Timrem 22:24, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's in articlespace, making it a self-reference. --Rory096 00:57, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • I see that now, after reading WP:ASR again, and have changed my vote. I would suggest that whatever bot replaces all the links, if this discussion decides to delete, replace it with [[WP:BJ|BJAODN]] so the text in which it is found remains unchanged. Another thought just occurred to me though. I don't know much about how bots work, but how would it treat something pipe linked when doing replacements? Would it replace [[BJAODN|some certain text here]] with just [[WP:BJ]], or would it insert [[WP:BJ|some certain text here]], and would that complicate my suggestion to replace BJAODN with [[WP:BJ|BJAODN]]? Timrem 18:41, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • It bypasses simple links like [[BJAODN]] TO [[Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense|BJAODN]] and piped links from [[BJAODN|blahblahblah]] to [[Wikipedia:Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense|blahblahblah]]. It has no effects you can see outside of the edit box. --Rory096 03:13, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I dislike cross-namespace redirects, but there would appear to be very little possibility for confusion being foisted on the user in this case. However, the argument (paraphrased) 'keep because lots of pages link here' isn't a valid one, in my opinion. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 19:38, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Between 250 and 500 pages link to this page. The reasoning behind 'keep because lots of pages link here' is because that depending on circumstances, it may take much more system load to orphan a redirect with many links than to simply keep the redirect. Cowman109Talk 19:42, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have a bot to orphan redirects, I'll be glad to do this. System load doesn't have anything to do with it and is a moot point (300 edits in about 2 hours out of tens of thousands of hits per second doesn't have any effect), it's a self-reference. --Rory096 00:57, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I don't see anyone arriving at the page without the aim of being directed to Bad Jokes, so I don't see it as really being self-referential. Nobody who wishes to see an encyclopedia page will get here. On the other hand, a lot of people who can't remember the full name of what they're looking for will be lost.

Ideally, I don't need to edit the address bar (i.e. use WP:BJ) to go places -- I would like to use search. and the default button is 'go' which gets the redirect currently. Maybe this is just my own habit novacatz 03:28, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely. MaxSem 16:34, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revise as follows ... If there is a person who is notable enough for an article who goes by the name 'Keith Richard', that article should be entitled 'Keith Richard' and a {{Distinguish}} template used to point at the Keith Richards article (I don't think a reciprocal one would be necessary). If there is not a person who is sufficiently notable for inclusion who is named 'Keith Richard', keep the redirect and tag it with {{R from alternate name}}, as long as the note that 'Richard' was 'Richards' former name is included in the article; if it turns out that this name change did not take place, then tag it with {{R from misspelling}}.

There's a bit of history here. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Protologism was closed as delete on 23 March this year. The article was recreated as a redirect a couple of days later, and the redirect was listed here immediately. The RfD did not lead to a consensus, so when I closed it I decided to make the article a soft redirect to wikt:protologism, which I judged to be a good compromise between the various positions taken at the RfD debate (see Wikipedia:Redirects for deletion/Redirect Archives/March 2006#March 27). However, this soft redirect did not last long. I'm bringing the redirect up again in the hope that we now do manage to get a consensus.

Personally, I think cross-namespace redirects are to be avoided. I don't think this one is useful enough that it merits ignoring the rule. Thus, delete. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 14:15, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment, I have no problem making it into a dab page if there are other entries... but looking through the edit history there was the redirect or just " [[Arvède Barine]]" which didn't automatically redirect... so, I'll say keep unless there is a dab page. gren グレン 22:09, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rational Anarchist → Bernardo de la Paz

edit

Bernardo de la Paz was merged with The Moon is a Harsh Mistress per consensus. Rational Anarchist would seem to be a term for a political philosophy but it has a redirect to Bernardo de la Paz on the grounds that the character calls himself a rational anarchist in Heinlein's novel. Redirect isn't really appropriate, much less so now that it would redirect straight to the novel. Delete. KleenupKrew 22:51, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Rapator" → Rapator

edit

This was prodded, but I've seen this kind of deletion be controversial before, so moving it here. No vote. Original prod concern was: Article "Rapator" was created by moving page from article Rapator by a user not familiar with Wikipedia: WikiProject Dinosaurs guidelines. "Rapator" (with quotes) is an unlikely search term, so there's not even a need for the redirect, which is all that remains in this article (all content was re-inserted into Rapator).--Firsfron of Ronchester—Preceding unsigned comment added by Mangojuice (talk • contribs)

I can see no reason why this redirect should exist. I'm not aware of any entity called "Independent States" in the history of Latin America. gadfium 19:40, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A little bit more poking around indicates that it refers to the "Spanish Speaking Commonwealth of Independent States" (1810s-1820s). I doubt that there is a need for this redirect, but if there is it should go to South American Wars of Independence. Nothing links to it at present.

LUE Trinity → Shock site

edit

TBH, I had absolutely NO idea what the "LUE trinity" was when I found this. Turns out, "LUE trinity" is a semi-protologism in the Gamefaqs community, referring to a trio of shock images, including Goatse, Tubgirl, and a deformed baby. As a hyperspecific protologism, we don't need an article for it, even a redirect. It is not, and should not, be mentioned in the Shock site article. Mangojuicetalk 18:01, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

edit

Redirect is actually to a section of shock site that hasn't existed for a long time. Bakla.net never contained any content on its own; the site was delisted at some point in the past. It's a dead meme; according to Alexa, it at one time managed to reach an Alexa rank as high as around 23000, but I know of no sources on Bakla.net, so we shouldn't have an article on it per WP:WEB.

Antarticopelta → Antarctopelta

edit

I originally prodded this redirect, but the prod tag was removed by User:Mangojuice as a "perfectly reasonable redirect". However, R3 states "R3 Redirects as a result of an implausible typo that were recently created. However, redirects from common misspellings or misnomers are generally useful." However, this is not a common misspelling. Incorrectly-spelled "Antarticopelta" returns exactly five hits on a Google search, all of which are this article on Wikipedia, or its mirrors. This is not a commonly misspelled word. It was a typo created by an inexperienced editor, and any valid content has since been moved to the correctly-spelled article. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Dinosaurs team is not large enough to maintain and expand all 1,000 correctly-spelled articles and keep an eye out for dozens of improbably-misspelled articles, too. Delete.Firsfron of Ronchester 06:39, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I thought this was a plausible typo. I am not at all surprised that the typo returns few ghits. To me, it's plausible, because of the "artic"/"arctic" confusion. Plus, redirects are cheap. Mangojuicetalk 14:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
But if it's a plausible mispelling, wouldn't it show up somewhere else on the internet? But it hasn't. Only on Wikipedia would there be votes to keep a misspelling that no one's ever misspelled before. :/--Firsfron of Ronchester 19:29, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Anyone might easily type "antarticopelta" into the search box when looking for "antarctopelta". Nothing implausible at all about that. Misspellings are far more likely to occur in a search than in a web page which shows up on Google. I also don't understand why the WikiProject Dinosaurs team would need to "keep an eye out for" redirects like this. --Mathew5000 19:53, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Because we get lots of vandalism from the kiddies, who like to add info on "Bonersaurus" or add lots of zeros to sizes. I'm a member of three wikiprojects, and I guarantee the dinosaur articles get more vandalism than the other projects on which I work. I've currently got 1,400 pages on my watchlist, and judging from the rest of the dinosaur crew, they have similarly large amounts of pages on their watchlists, too (User:Ballista's page says he's got 1,200 on his watchlist). We spend part of each day just cleaning up bad info that's been added by (presumably) young writers. Anything that helps us clean house, like deleting misspelled articles and being able to then remove them from our extensive watchlists, is a good thing.--Firsfron of Ronchester 20:14, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If the redirect is deleted, then it might be re-created in future by a well-meaning but inexperienced editor (as happened originally [12]). If left as a redirect, it should in theory save you work for that reason. I understand your point about dinosaur pages being subject to more vandalism than average, but is that true for dinosaur pages that are mere redirects? Pages that are redirects get hardly any edits, so they should not be much of a burden on your watchlist. --Mathew5000 21:17, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not an asset to WP and anything to reduce my watchlist (currently 1,443) would be welcome - if it were a plausible mis-spelling, Google would surely come up with something other than this WP page? - Ballista 04:15, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
