Not Sure If → Futurama (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

While the name of a fairly famous meme, the only connection between the meme and Futurama is that it uses an image from the show. There's no mention of the meme at the target nor anywhere else on Wikipedia as far as I can tell (although it's a pretty common phrase). I'm open to suggestions, but as of now, I think it should be deleted, possibly per WP:REDLINK. (Shout-out to CoffeeWithMarkets for the suggestion.) -- Tavix ^(talk) 23:14, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, maybe because an article could be written on it, but its relationship with the show is tenuous, so much so that the show itself referenced the meme in one of its own title cards several seasons after the episode the image was pulled from. It's not mentioned at the episode's article, either, and is not a quote from the episode as far as I remember. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 14:55, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Race and ethnicity in the United States Census. —Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 06:27, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Caucasian (U.S. Census) → White people (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I was quite surprised to see "Caucasian" isn't mentioned at the target article, or even at Race and ethnicity in the United States Census or Race and ethnicity in the United States. The US Census is mentioned at Caucasian race, however. I suppose the term isn't actually used in the Census, which is just as well since it's a bit of a misnomer. Still, it's a likely enough search term, since it's somewhat of a euphemism for "white". I think retargeting to Race and ethnicity in the United States Census is the best option, and probably acceptable even without an explicit mention there, but I thought I'd bring it up for discussion.

Retarget per nom. If the subheading says "US Census", one would expect to find US Census specific information. Pinguinn (🐧) 19:23, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

White Christian male → White people (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

WP:XY. Unclear why this is a better target than Christian or Man. BDD (talk) 16:43, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete lots of white people are not Christian, and half are not male -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 05:45, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as vague. Super Weak Retarget to White Anglo-Saxon Protestant is okay as well --Lenticel ^(talk) 11:41, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Smart Whites → White people (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

I think this speaks for itself. Probably delete, but retargeting to Race and intelligence could be an option. BDD (talk) 16:41, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete sounds like a clothing topic, dressing smartly in whites (such as dress whites) -- 70.51.46.39 (talk) 05:45, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of people compared to Bob Dylan → Bob Dylan (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
List of people likened to Bob Dylan → Bob Dylan (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Here are some misleading redirects as no such list exists. A list of this nature shouldn't exist anyway since it would be trivial, and I don't even know how it would be set up. -- Tavix ^(talk) 03:45, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Looks like a meme repository thing, honestly, then something you'd find on Wikipedia (i.e. this) CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:47, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016_February_25#Hungarian Revolution of 2010.

Delete as WP:RFD#D5 nonsense. The caps on Two-thirds is a bit weird, too. Si Trew (talk) 03:08, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
