- Blue walls → Blue balls#Homologous condition in women (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Bad redirect. Relevant section does not exist [anymore], and redirect term does not occur otherwise within given target. Hildeoc (talk) 16:57, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete The section in question was removed by Drmies in May 2011 due to unreliable sourcing. Unless similar, reliably sourced content is readded, this redirect will be of no service to readers. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:58, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
- Comment there are sources that support the term and similar terms, e.g. [1], [2] [3] [4]. The overwhelming use though is the exact sum of parts meaning - walls that are blue so finding sources takes quite a bit of excluding painting and decorating related results.

Misuse of the IPA symbol ⟨ɤ⟩, which is different from ⟨ɣ⟩ or ⟨γ⟩. Only redirect of its kind, possibly because ɤ is never used outside of phonology. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 21:15, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Not mentioned in target article. There have been various Lucaniuses in history, though only one is mention on Wikipedia. Delete to encourage article creation. — the Man in Question (in question) 20:43, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep or dab This was a pseudonym of John Calvin,
LucianusLucanius being an anagram of Calvinus (v and u being interchangeable at that time). All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:01, 19 July 2019 (UTC).

Leonardo D. Caprio already exists separately. Therefore, spacing error in mistaken name. — the Man in Question (in question) 20:41, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep neither harmful nor new (12 years old). All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:04, 19 July 2019 (UTC).
- Delete. It is not necessary for us to preemptively anticipate and create redirects from every typo we can possibly imagine somebody somewhere on earth ever making — the test for whether a redirect-from-typo is warranted or not hinges on whether that typo is a documentably common sight in the real world. This is not. Bearcat (talk) 16:30, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per Rich Farmbrough - this redirect is not harmful in the slightest and deletion would bring no benefits. Thryduulf (talk) 16:03, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

- Armstrong, Louis Satchmo → Louis Armstrong (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Implausible search term. {{R from sort name}} exists for sorting; anyone who searches on Google or types into Wikipedia's search box "Armstrong, Louis" will get where they're trying to go. — the Man in Question (in question) 20:40, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per the color of Louis Satchmo Armstrong. If "XYZ" doesn't exist, there's no good reason to have "Z, XY". Please remember, however, that there are plenty of other ways to reach an article; your envisioned autofilled search won't help anyone like me who goes places by changing the page URL. Nyttend (talk) 23:32, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep 15 years old, not harmful. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:05, 19 July 2019 (UTC).
- Keep per WP:CHEAP. It's not an implausible search term, it's not ambiguous, and given that it has existed for 15 years without any harm having come from it it's safe to presume that it will not cause any harm going forwards. Thryduulf (talk) 16:05, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Per nom.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 21:41, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943 (talk) 19:52, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per Nyttend's reasoning. UnitedStatesian (talk) 01:44, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. If the redirect contained the actual middle name (e.g. "Armstrong, Louis Daniel") then it would be plausible; but I don't think a nickname is usually mixed with the real name in this manner. I don't agree with Nyttend's argument since we could just create Louis Satchmo Armstrong, though that shouldn't be necessary since Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong already exists and makes it clear that "Satchmo" is a nickname. –Sonicwave talk 19:00, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- delete, per Sonicwave32, i.e. it mixes two different things. - Nabla (talk) 21:17, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- Futhaghuras → Pythagoras (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
WP:FORRED. Arabic/Persian, Russian, Italian, Spanish, and what appears to be some sort of hybrid. — the Man in Question (in question) 20:34, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Pyfagoras, plausible typo. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:17, 19 July 2019 (UTC).
- Delete all per nom and WP:FORRED. The last one just seems like a joke redirect.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 21:43, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep at least some. Given the importance of mediaeval Arabic scholarship in the transmission of Greek mathematical texts, the Arabic form of the name (Futhaghuras) definitely makes sense. Redirects #2 to #4 are not just foreign names, they are very plausible ways in which a speaker of the corresponding languages would search on wikipedia (the background here is that about half (if not more) of the readers of enwiki are not English natives speakers, and that the English spelling of Pythagoras is neither part of what L2 speakers can be expected to know, nor is it easily recoverable from the spelling in the corresponding language). – Uanfala (talk) 14:53, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

[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 retarget to State Administration for Religious Affairs. (non-admin closure) StrikerforceTalk 20:52, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- National Religious Affairs Administration → United Front Work Department (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Target doesn't mention this organization name. From reading through the target, it's possible that State Administration for Religious Affairs may be a better target? I am not confident about that though. signed, Rosguill talk 17:50, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- There is mention of the relationship between the redirect and its target here. Also fairly recent use in the news to suggest the name is still in use. Probably delete to encourage article creation, unless a better target can be found or info can be added to current target. — the Man in Question (in question) 22:53, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Thryduulf (talk) 15:09, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget to State Administration for Religious Affairs. There are lots of uses of the exact term, including very recently. [5] from April this year states that "Wang Zuoan, deputy minister of the party's United Front Work Department [...] who also serves as director of the country's National Religious Affairs Administration". Our article State Administration for Religious Affairs lists the same person as director, so it seems that the terms are being used to refer to the same organisation. Thryduulf (talk) 11:55, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
- I want to somehow connect the set-index article Ministry of Religious Affairs, but hatnoting it from the Chinese body feels awkward, and retargeting there when the Chinese body is the only one whose name is particularly like this is also unsatisfying. --BDD (talk) 15:28, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
- Retarget State Administration for Religious Affairs. A web search shows that these two English names are largely interchangeable and refer to the same PRC government body. Deryck C. 00:01, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Steel1943 (talk) 19:51, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Delete per WP:COSTLY; Strange spacing makes this one unlikely for both linking and search. UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:39, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - may have been created mistakenly and unlikely to be a search term. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 18:49, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Israel protest

- The result of the discussion was delete. With no prejudice towards creating a dab page. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:16, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
- Israel protest → July 2019 Ethiopian Jews protest in Israel (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Really? A Wikipedia search returns at a minimum dozens of other protests that could be referred to by this name. The creation of a disambiguation page is likely the best solution. I considered suggesting a set index article, but given the possibility that protests outside of Israel but about Israel (or about other, unrelated things named Israel) could be referred to by this name I'm not sure that's entirely appropriate. However, creating such a list or dab page is non-trivial (and likely will eventually become an I/P battleground), so in the event that no one is willing to step up to do it I think that this redirect should be deleted. signed, Rosguill talk 18:19, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per the nom.--SharabSalam (talk) 18:35, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Is the word 'satantic' really appropriate? See also this discussion. Adam9007 (talk) 16:39, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Does not really help to locate the page. Word "satanic" might be appropriate because it was used in sources and these guys allegedly practiced satanism. However, any possible renaming should be discussed on article talk page if anyone thinks it needs to be renamed. My very best wishes (talk) 17:01, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Absolutely Delete. This was the original page name, but it was renamed, and the redirect from the original name is about to be deleted at the discussion Adam linked. The same should be done with this redirect from the user's draft. -- MelanieN (talk) 18:06, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. This redirect is in the "User:" namespace, and serves as a way for the page's original creator to find where their page ended up since it serves as a functional redirect. In other words, the possible reasons for deleting Kidwelly satanic child rape cult do not apply to the redirect nominated in this discussion since this redirect is not in the "article" namespace. Steel1943 (talk) 19:27, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
Update: It's deleted. As the draft's original author, I have speedily deleted this automatically generated redirect page using the G7 template. This redirect page appeared in place of a draft that I moved and published as an article. Tots & little ones matter! (talk) 01:20, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Four companies with the acronym "UMC" listed at UMC#Organizations, though I note that this redirect has plenty of incoming links which will need to be updated. I'm inclined to keeping this because of the four companies listed on the dab page, this is the highest-profile that is commonly known as "UMC". feminist (talk) 16:26, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- I think you're correct that this company is the primary topic for the term. I'd suggest keeping the redirect and starting a WP:RM discussion to review the article's apparently undiscussed move to United Microelectronics Corporation. The company brands itself as UMC, and it's commonly referred to that way in media reports. - Eureka Lott 20:51, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Interstate 80 does not exist in New York. According to Interstate 80 and Trans-Manhattan Expressway, it was never proposed, either. Morriswa (Charlotte Allison) (talk) 05:11, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. The Trans-Manhattan Expressway is I-95, and given that I-80 was never proposed, this redirect is simply incorrect and misleading. ComplexRational (talk) 12:58, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Delete More misguided attempts at using redirects to simulate natural language processing. Like the other attempts, these are unlikely link targets, and will become very WP:COSTLY as time passes. UnitedStatesian (talk) 04:37, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Weird redirects that are quite vague. Nixinova T C 04:46, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Certainly within the rugby community, use of the term "that try" will be understood by pretty much everybody as referring to, well, that specific try against NZ, even over 45 years later. It is a fairly common term, and having the redirect going straight to the relevant article stops someone trying to create an article about the try itself at that title. - Chrism would like to hear from you 07:17, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Is there a reliable source that we could use to document that usage, like we have for Shot Heard 'Round the World (baseball)? UnitedStatesian (talk) 12:15, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12] are all examples from multiple RS (admittedly all British in origin, but the Baa Baas are a club of British origin) of use of the term. It's even got a whisky named after it. - Chrism would like to hear from you 22:54, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Ok, uncle! I have withdrawn that nomination. (and thanks, by the way) UnitedStatesian (talk) 13:36, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete all, unless "that try" is reasonably clear, which it sounds like it might be. When I saw "the goddess that fell out of Zeus' head", I thought it sounded like a book title... but I checked, and sadly, it's not! Pretty sure anybody looking for information on the Wendy's campaign would remember "where's the beef" and search under that. P Aculeius (talk) 12:24, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

- Keep Red Ice is a fictional drug that exists in the game. Whilst not mentioned in the article, it is frequently mentioned in the game. --AnonUser1 (talk) 02:08, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. If it is not mentioned in the target article, it can not be verified as relating to the target. UnitedStatesian (talk) 04:49, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete seems to be an in-game plot device. Anyways, google search shows the use of the term in the game, a movie and some podcasts. Not sure if the other two are notable enough to be included in the wiki --Lenticel (talk) 05:11, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

USS Stettin was decommissioned in 1865 and became Sheridan. She was never "USS Sheridan". Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:39, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
