Unless this was the title of a book, I don't see any reason for this random (why 2008) redirect to exist. Dominicmgm (talk) 23:16, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

why 2008

- Draft:College (Québec) → CEGEP (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Given that College (Quebec) (College (Québec) and College education in Québec do not exist currently, but might well be created) redirects to the more general College education in Quebec and these pages were created in draftspace as redirects, I don't see a point in having them. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 21:04, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- And would it be that hard simply moving them to mainspace (and deleting the draftspace remnants?). Or is there some technical reason why we should just recreate them directly without the draft history as mainspace redirects? They seem plausible enough to me... RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:08, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- @RandomCanadian Moving redirects is generally discouraged per WP:MOVEREDIRECT. I did move some redirects out of draftspace, but considering that here one would need to additionally change the redirect's target, this would unnecessarily obfuscate the page's edit history. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 12:47, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- In that case speedy (G6) and then re-create in mainspace (the order of these two operations is not important) - if these were created by a non-AC user, they just had to go to WP:AFC/R. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 13:00, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

- Delete. What bizarre edit history. as far as I can tell what happened here is that the "did you know" page was moved from the template namespace to the portal namespace, leaving a redirect behind. For some reason that redirect was then also moved to the portal namespace, to a title with a double slash in the name. I cannot understand why the redirect was moved to this title, but since it's a completely implausible typo for a "behind the scenes" page that readers shouldn't be visiting directly, seems to have had 0 page views in the last year and has no incoming links I think it can be deleted. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 20:35, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the target article. In modern American politics this would most likely refer to Amy Klobuchar. feminist (talk) 16:49, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- Retrget to KLOB as an "R from alternate/incorrect capitalisation". A google search suggests to me that the primary topic of this name is the radio station. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 20:39, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

- The Rural Bank Limited → Rural Bank (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not a logical redirect. The bank itself is most likely notable, redirecting that to a disambiguation page is strange. The Banner talk 10:19, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. There are two "Rural bank Limited" listed on the dab page, both of which are covered in the linked article. I've removed the circular redirect from the dab page. If the bank is not notable, sending readers to the article on the bank which bought them seems like a reasonable solution. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 20:46, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per 86. The disambiguation page provides disambiguation for this term. That's what it's meant to do. — J947 ‡ message ⁓ edits 21:03, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

- Comment. It is a real website, pointed to for years from https://uncyclopedia.ca/wiki/Main_Page to sv.uncyclopedia.info, named Psyklopedin (though the banner spells it differently: Välkommen till Pysklopedin). The former's 2019 graphic shows the latter as having 2,549 articles; their main page now says they have 2,679. There is currently no need for a redirect, as otherwise the Search function would direct readers to the reference in the Uncyclopedia article. Perhaps Keep if the Uncyclopedia article contained actual information beyond merely listing its name as one of the non-English analogs. Spike-from-NH (talk) 01:29, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

- .hack character classes → .hack#Setting (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Nominating this as a follow up to this discussion which was closed earlier today. There is no coverage of character classes from the .hack video games in any of the articles on the .hack franchise as far as I can tell. There was a rather WP:FANCRUFTY article in the page history, which I think was merged to this article on characters from the series (difficult to tell where it ended up, all the .hack articles seem to have been restructured at the same time), but all the content on character classes seems to have been edited out in the following 12 years, leaving this without a good target. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 13:35, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
- Retarget to "List of .hack characters". That is the location of the info about .hack characters. 053pvr (talk) 01:39, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
- The "List of .hack characters" article contains information about notable characters from the franchise, not the various character classes that players could choose in the video games. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 01:49, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 08:32, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
