Silk (Corn Stalk Part)
edit
- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was delete. signed, Rosguill talk 17:38, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
This redirect is incorrect. The silk of corn is not part of the stalk itself, it is rather part of the ear of corn itself. There is no part of the corn stalk specifically that is known as silk. Page creator evidently was not in FFA as a youth. Hog Farm Bacon 01:33, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Botanically-wrong and malformed qualifier. Narky Blert (talk) 11:36, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
- Weak keep: despite being named and capitalized oddly, it points to the correct target. Per Wiktionary, "stalk" can refer to the tough central structure of the plant or to one entire mature plant, and per the second definition the silk is a part of a cornstalk. However this redirect does not get much use. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:57, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, signed, Rosguill talk 19:50, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Corn silk per Ivanvector. I've tagged it with {{R from incorrect disambiguation}}. There are no redirects to that article with parenthetical qualifiers right now, so I can definitely see the benefit to accommodating users starting to type "Silk (corn". --BDD (talk) 15:59, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Weak retarget to Corn silk per BDD. I was thinking the same rationale for doing so, and was going to sit this one out in case something changed considering I'm "weak" on this option due to the "{{R from incorrect disambiguation}}" issue, but at this point, eh sure.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 23:59, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. This is in no way a plausible search term. The above would lend credence to the creation of Silk (corn) or similar, but this is miles from that. -- Tavix (talk) 01:32, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as implausible, miscapitalised, and unhelpfully targetted, but I've created Silk (corn) as a redirect to Corn silk, and also added Corn silk to Silk (disambiguation).PamD 05:16, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Am fm radio

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Tuner (radio)#AM/FM. signed, Rosguill talk 17:37, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
This redirect seems to have a WP:XY issue, considering that FM radio redirects to FM broadcasting, and AM radio redirects to AM broadcasting. Steel1943 (talk) 06:46, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Tuner (radio)#AM/FM. This one's a little trickier since the capitalization and nomenclature is atrocious! I also wouldn't be totally opposed to deletion. This shouldn't have XY problems because all three together (AM, FM, and radio—usually as an "AM/FM radio") is typically referring to hardware devices that are capable of receiving in either frequency modulation or amplitude modulation. That's probably why it was targetting Radio, but that article itself isn't about hardware alone, but the whole technology of radio. This should really be at AM/FM radio, but is it worth a move? Meh... -2pou (talk) 20:05, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete, noting the possibility of creation of AM/FM radio. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:40, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- In this case, I would retarget and then move without leaving a redirect to preserve what little creation history there is. -2pou (talk) 17:51, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- I would strongly object to that per WP:MOVEREDIRECT. Colorbow clearly wanted a redirect from "Am fm radio", not "AM/FM radio", so let's not mess up the edit history for no benefit. If anybody wants a redirect at AM/FM radio, they are free to create it. -- Tavix (talk) 01:37, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
- In this case, I would retarget and then move without leaving a redirect to preserve what little creation history there is. -2pou (talk) 17:51, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 23:55, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Tuner (radio)#AM/FM per 2pou. This would not be acceptable as an article title but as a redirect there is absolutely nothing wrong with it as there is a single unambiguously correct target. Not everybody searches using proper capitalisation and punctuation (or is easily able to). AM/FM radio should be created as a redirect to the same target. Thryduulf (talk) 00:45, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget as suggested; it's lowercased and missing the slash, but otherwise is fairly standard terminology. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 13:57, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Tuner (radio)#AM/FM per 2pou. Although AM/FM radio doesn't exist yet, that's still a plausible misrendering of the term. Regards, SONIC678 19:21, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was move the target to Full Stop. -- JHunterJ (talk) 11:06, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
- Full Stop → Full stop (disambiguation) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There is a primary topic named Full stop. However, I have no clue why "Full Stop" redirects to its disambiguation page. Seventyfiveyears at 21:11, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep (or move Full stop (disambiguation) to Full Stop) per WP:DIFFCAPS. The difference is the capital "S", and its enough to differentiate itself from the topic of "Full stop" since the disambiguation page Full stop (disambiguation) contains mainly items with the "S" capitalized. Steel1943 (talk) 22:18, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, keep per Steel1943. If a reader has gone to the trouble to capitalise the "S" then it's likely they're looking for the proper name rather than the common noun. – Uanfala (talk) 22:25, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to the primary topic per nom. --Soumya-8974 talk contribs subpages 13:45, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

"The Atlantic hurricane season" redirects
edit
- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was delete. I honestly think these are perfectly plausible and harmless, but there's a consensus to delete and they don't appear to have seen much use at all, so it would be pointlessly costly to belabor the point. signed, Rosguill talk 20:39, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

- The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season → 2005 Atlantic hurricane season (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I do not understand why those pages redirect to its own hurricane season. We don't have the redirect The Atlantic hurricane season, (i.e. The 2019 Atlantic hurricane season, The 2004 Atlantic hurricane season, The 1992 Atlantic hurricane season, etc) these are the only mentions of "The Atlantic hurricane season" in the English Wikipedia.

- Running gags in the Pokemon anime → Pokémon (anime) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
No such list in target article. However, Running gags in the Pokémon anime is a {{R with history}} that was seemingly WP:BLANKANDREDIRECTed back in 2006. Steel1943 (talk) 18:32, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Restore article, redirect the other title to it and then send to AfD. I don't think it will survive as an article, but it's not speedily deletable so needs to be discussed at the correct venue. Thryduulf (talk) 18:54, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. This is not an encyclopedic topic. There's no need to go through another layer of bureaucracy when it's clear the article would not survive an AfD. It was redirected back in 2006, so it has long been stable as a redirect. -- Tavix (talk) 01:26, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete there’s no chance this will survive an AFD meaning we shouldn’t have to restore the article simply for the process.--67.68.208.64 (talk) 04:46, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Kong Hong
edit
- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was delete. Plausible but ambiguous misspellings are typically deleted. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:20, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
This redirect is very implausible and misleading. Seventyfiveyears at 15:20, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. The redirect and its target actually look identical at first glance, I had to look twice to see the difference, so therefore not misleading. It also has received a decent amount of pageviews for the past five years or so. CycloneYoris talk! 20:15, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:XY as a misnomer or typo for multiple things (e.g. Kong Hon) but not the correct name of anything in Wikipedia. The pageview statistics only tell us that something pointed to this in error (maybe an external link, given that there's a 100-hit spike on one day and just one person on most others); they don't tell us that the readers who followed the link actually ended up where they wanted to. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 02:26, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
- ...except the search does not give Kong Hon as a result.[3] This is a plausible misspelling. Keep. --Guy Macon (talk) 22:58, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
- That proves nothing besides that when you don't put quotes around your search terms, Wikipedia's search engine returns page matching your search terms in either order instead of trying to guess if you misspelled something. Dropping one letter from an unfamiliar name is obviously a plausible error. In the absence of any real evidence about whether that's more or less likely than swapping two distant letters in a name that people are much more likely to have heard before, the XY problem remains. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 01:08, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per the above, and also per WP:PANDORA. It's a much more plausible misspelling of Kong Hon, but even that's pushing it. So unless there's some established usage of this (and I certainly can't find any), creating redirects for every possible spoonerism is not what they're there for. What's next, Yew Nork? –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 00:46, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Also worth noting that all the incoming wikilinks are for a film director who doesn't have a Wikipedia article (the man discussed in this Chinese-language obituary) but is notable per WP:ANYBIO (won the Golden Horse Lifetime Achievement Award in 1999. So this should also be deleted per WP:R#D10.) 59.149.124.29 (talk) 02:03, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

- Delete: Completely implausible redirect. Aasim 18:57, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep. I can see this as a plausible misremembering of which word comes first, especially given they both sound similar. The fact that Eastern name order is "backwards" for a westerner may also lean into some of the plausibility for most English speakers. -- Tavix (talk) 19:38, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Not mentioned in target article, leaving the connection between the redirect and the target unclear. Steel1943 (talk) 08:01, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Disk Hacker has no relationship to the Floppy disk article other than maybe as a game it is distributed on a floppy disk. To add it to the FD article would be undue. Tom94022 (talk) 16:10, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. A Google search suggests that this is an old blackhat thing used to pirate disks. Hog Farm Bacon 18:11, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget The term (the name of a software product) is used and explained in the "Hacker International" article, hence let's redirect there (or to Famicom Disk System). --Matthiaspaul (talk) 09:33, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Hacker International per Matthiaspaul. While the use was for Famicom Disk System, this is not actually mentioned at that article, so it would have the same problem. -2pou (talk) 15:52, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Steak#Pork steak. Closing this discussion since they both seem clear and specific. (non-admin closure) Seventyfiveyears (talk) 20:21, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
Delete per WP:XY. Pictured twice with captions, but not specifically identified in the target article's context. The redirect could equally refer to the subject at Ham. Steel1943 (talk) 22:21, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- Weak keep and refine to Steak#Pork steak, which provides access to the pictures. My understanding is that the leg cuts referred to in that section would indeed be ham steaks. This is a bit confusion since all ham is pork but not all pork is ham. So ham steak is not pork steak, but it is a steak made of pork. A standalone article could better explain this, but I don't really see the case for WP:REDLINK deletion here. Alternatively, explanatory text could be added at the section. --BDD (talk) 15:57, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, signed, Rosguill talk 17:04, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per BDD. In addition, to decouple the incoming links from the sub-topic organization in the article, we could refine the link to point to Steak#Ham steak and add an
{{anchor|Ham steak}}
at the "Pork steak" section header to semantically distinguish between the two types. This way, the anchor could be moved to a new section without having to update the redirect whenever the article gets further developed and someone writes something specifically about "Ham steak" in the future. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 08:39, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

- Is there any reason to think the educational position is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC? We also have Assistant head coach redirecting to Head coach; Assistant Head of Left Military Guards to List of Japanese court ranks, positions and hereditary titles; and Assistant Head Constable to Assistant chief constable. --BDD (talk) 13:44, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
- Are any of these commonly referred to simply as "assistant head"? Because it's the normal term for the teaching position. Far, far commoner than assistant headteacher. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:37, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not sure. In context, yes ("Joe Smith was hired as head coach at Tennessee, having been assistant head at Arkansas"), but is the teaching position different? If you were meeting someone and asked what they do, might they answer simply, "I'm an assistant head"? --BDD (talk) 19:20, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, probably. And you'd certainly say, in the context of a school, "John Smith is the assistant head" ("head" being established colloquial English for "headteacher" in the UK - everyone would understand it to mean that if you were talking about a school), whereas you wouldn't say it in the context of a sports team, as nobody would know what you were talking about. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:33, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

- Delete as ambiguous per Shhhnotsoloud. MB 01:05, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Deputy head teacher. This is another example of a term that is theoretically ambiguous but when you actually do the research it's clear that in practice it actually isn't. A google search for the exact phrase reveals that literally 100% of the results on the first six pages are for assistant head teachers, as are all the results on the 8th page. On the 7th page one result was for an assistant head of PE at a school, all the other results on the page were for assistant head teachers. The usage to mean deputy head teacher is therefore so overwhelmingly primary that any action other than retargetting there would is unsupportable by any actual evidence.

- Retarget to Lilac (disambiguation) and add a mention of the conference there. Thryduulf (talk) 11:43, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- If it isn't mentioned in the target article a dab page purist will delete the entry. PamD 18:35, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

- Yes, possibly, but you know that is how dab pages work: if it isn't mentioned in target article it doesn't go on the dab page. PamD 19:28, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

- Retarget and mention per Thryduulf, tagging as {{R from other capitalisation}} plus {{R from ambiguous term}}. Narky Blert (talk) 11:49, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep and improve Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals to mention the conference. If that is not possible for some reason, Thryduulf's suggestion is good. ~Kvng (talk) 14:24, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- OK, Keep (or Withdraw nomination). I've now added a sourced sentence about this conference to the CILIP article. This should have been done at the time the AfD closed, because redirecting to a page where it wasn't mentioned was not a great idea. Will add it to the dab page (which is where I got involved with all sorts of Lilacs, starting off by stubs-sorting Lilacs (painting) ...). PamD 19:20, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- LILAC now retargeted to dab page, which now includes entry for Librarians' Information Literacy Annual Conference. All done and dusted I think. PamD 19:27, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks PamD. Looks great! ~Kvng (talk) 00:36, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

- QutubeAllahabad → Muhibullah Allahabadi (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Relisting again after removing the unreferenced term from the target page. (as suggested by Rosguill) The reason for deletion stands same as the previous nomination.
The target page(Muhibullah Allahabadi) had no reference about the alternate name(that is the redirect -QutubeAllahabad), until it was added by the page creator of QutubeAllahabad here, without any suitable reference. I have removed the dubious mention from the target page and left a message on the talk page. The page creator lists here a website, but its a user-generated website which does not seems to be reliable and independent to be accepted as a ref. Zoodino (talk) 07:19, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Delete Stands for "Notability BASIC CRITeria" The problem is, literally tens (hundreds?) of WikiProjects have "Notability BASIC CRITeria", and so it makes no sense for this redirect to point to a particular WikiProject subpage, as opposed to another WikiProject's subpage.

Delete per WP:RfD#D10. This race only appears in the results table (one of the three places which link to this redirect which is also unhelpful as it is circular). Delete to encourage article creation. A7V2 (talk) 01:39, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
Disagree, however I have now populated the page with race information. I have left the Redirect and the existing text intact as per the request on the page in question. GTHO (talk) 10:09, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep (the article; remove the #REDIRECT statement). Article is now populated with content. DH85868993 (talk) 10:40, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
