Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Delete per WP:FORRED. These redirects are in French. In the previous discussion, there were claims that the United States has affinity to the French language. However, the country as a whole does not have French language affinity; that affinity, from my knowledge, is exclusive to Louisiana and possibly Florida. (I originally was going to put all of foreign language redirects to United States together in one nomination. However, I then found discussions such as Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2014 September 4#États-Unis d'Amérique and Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 November 18#Verenigde State van Amerika, so instead I’m listing them each individually by language to the best of my ability.)

Delete per WP:FORRED. The target does not have affinity to the Russian language. (I originally was going to put all of foreign language redirects to United States together in one nomination.

Unlikely search terms due to the use of pluses. Steel1943 (talk) 22:54, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

When I created that, the Firefox/Chrome Omnibar enwp.org search extension added plus signs between separate words, much the same way that Google still does in its urls (but of course it edits them out when it searches Wikipedia). I haven't really used Firefox for years but I think they now have a built-in omnibar and that there's probably no need for this redirect but I haven't tested that myself. I'd be included to leave it just in case there's another search engine that still adds +'s between words. shrug :) Banaticus (talk) 23:38, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear what this refers to due to the use of the word "The". (If WP:X1 was still active, this could be a candidate for it.) Steel1943 (talk) 03:26, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 02:37, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This redirection should be deleted, because Cerasuolo is not a grape, it is a village, a surname, or two different Italian DOC wines. Further reasoning is on the Talk:Cerasuolo (grape) page; closest thing in WP:RFD 3.1, reasons for deleting, is No. 5, "The redirect makes no sense" Jon (talk) 12:41, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • You're certainly right that there doesn't appear to be a grape by this name, that both of the wines called Cerasuolo use other grapes. That doesn't mean this couldn't be useful as an {{R from incorrect name}}. A reader familiar with these wines that wants to know more about the grapes they're made with could plausibly search for something like this, and from there, could learn the truth. On the other hand, a reader familiar with these wines may well just go directly to the wines' articles. I think I could go either way here. --BDD (talk) 21:11, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's an interesting point, would it be helpful to mention the grape varieties (Montepulciano, Nero d'Avola, and Frappato) in the Cerasuolo disambiguation page this leads to? I'm not super-committed to deleting this page but my point is just that it's not a grape, and I imagine searching for "Cerasuolo" will get you to where you'd probably want to go (articles about the wines, or possibly the town) if you thought it was a grape variety. Unrelatedly, in subsequent research I've found "Cerasuolo" is also an Italian word for the red precious coral, Corallium rubrum, used in jewellery since antiquity, but I'm not sure whether it is worth adding that to the English disambiguation page. — Jon (talk) 09:15, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No it would not be helpful to list the grape varieties on the DAB page. It would be against MOS:DAB.
I like the idea of relabelling as {{R from incorrect name}}. Redirects are cheap, and it's a plausible search term. Narky Blert (talk) 10:38, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
We tend to avoid redirects (or disambiguation-page listings) from other languages—see WP:FORRED. --BDD (talk) 14:23, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
