Windows 8.2 → Windows 8.1 (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

There is currently no such thing andthe target is currently no help, it has nothing about the future OS, which is what most readers would type this for. The ChampionMan 1234 11:32, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. Apparently even rumors are against this title: next version of Windows is believed to be called "Windows 9". — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track) 13:00, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete. There is no such thing. There is not even rumors about such a thing. Codename Lisa (talk) 19:46, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

comment to Codename Lisa, rumors: Toms Hardware, and Techradar.prg (two of many from a Google search). Christian75 (talk) 22:28, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Their date is before May 2014; hence, they are no longer rumors. But so what? WP:CRYSTAL even forbids official product announcements. Look, I can't really see where you are going with this comment; but wherever you are going, I am not coming. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 09:47, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Winblows 2000 → Windows 2000 (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

No idea what this could possibly mean, google is no help The ChampionMan 1234 11:29, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:R#DELETE criterion 8: fan cruft, which remains obscure (in contrast to Windoze, etc). Wikipedia is not a soapbox for promotion of pet pejorative aliases. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track) 12:34, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete. Clearly a derogatory title. Codename Lisa (talk) 19:48, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Private comapany with no affiliation for the target page The ChampionMan 1234 11:26, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:R#DELETE criterion 2: indeed no obvious affiliation. Apparently the company is in business of making iSCSI SANs from Windows Server 2003 machines (see this article for details). — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track) 13:04, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Windows 4.1 (disambiguation) → Windows 98 (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

The target is not a disambiguation page, nor do I see need for one. The ChampionMan 1234 11:23, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hungarian Geographical Name Committee

Relisted, see Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2014 July 23#Hungarian Geographical Name Committee

LZ 114

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 Procedural closure. Multiple articles (current target Dixmude (airship), French ship Dixmude, List of Zeppelins and multiple other articles) state that this is German name for Dixmude, which indeed was not finished. If this information is indeed wrong, please correct it there, and only then nominate this redirect. (non-admin closure) — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track) 12:45, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

LZ 114 → Dixmude (airship) (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]

Pointless and inaccurate redirect: LZ 114 was an unbuilt airship, not the Dixmude. I cannot imagine this redirect being used (I have just eliminated a link from an article where its use was an error) TheLongTone (talk) 10:46, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
