The paren at the beginning of the title makes this redirect too unlikely of a search term. Steel1943 (talk) 22:20, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. There have been many explosions in 2015, and no single explosion is sufficiently more notable than others to warrant having "2015 explosion" redirect to its article. Tdl1060 (talk) 21:32, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per nom. BMK (talk) 21:48, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Jax's second link is kind of what I was looking for, although it is nowhere near complete. -- Tavix (talk) 23:19, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The 2015 Tianjin explosions is the only explosion in 2015 listed in those articles. While that is arguably the most notable explosion in 2015, there were other notable explosions in 2015 as well, and as such I feel that those articles would be inappropriate targets. If the redirect is to be kept, its target page should be a page that lists all notable explosions in 2015.--Tdl1060 (talk) 00:35, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I don't know what the hell all that was, but since there's been a comment on these two that came in the middle of me trying to merge the discussion into another thread, and a weird half-edit-conflict came with it, I've reverted the whole damn thing and am keeping this one separate instead. Apologies for the confusion. Crow recommended listing these two redirects on my talk page which fall afoul of WP:NOTLYRICS and are likely copyright violations; delete.

NHL Draft redirects

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:40, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:HOCKEY's consensus that it is not helpful to have individual players redirected to their draft article. See also: WP:RFD#Pier-Oliver Pelletier -- Tavix (talk) 17:12, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How are we to guess what someone would be looking for when searching with these terms? Every list that contains a player's name would show up in search results so if anything, these redirects are hindering search, which is the main premise of WP:XY. -- Tavix (talk) 20:35, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That would presuppose -- based on God knows what speculation -- that the only thing anyone would know or think of these people is that they were selected in the NHL draft. That is, of course, nonsense -- wouldn't it be at least as likely for them to be associated with the teams for which they starred, and by which they'd be better remembered?

Untitled Mike Tyson Biopic

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:38, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per "the untitled problem." There should only be redirects of this fashion if it's an official or common name. The target says nothing about the fact that the biopic of Mike Tyson is untitled, and once it gains a title, this will become outdated anyway. -- Tavix (talk) 16:46, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Mike Tyson. HENDAWG229 (talk) 03:13, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:37, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as implausible. This reads like this is an official title or something, which it's not. No other Oscar winners have a redirect of this type. There's a note under the redirect that says "about damn time too". -- Tavix (talk) 16:39, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:36, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete yet another example of a failed crystal ball. This redirect refers to Silence (2016 film), which is two years off. Silence (disambiguation) lists a lot of films, but none for the year 2014. -- Tavix (talk) 16:29, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The redirect is unclear since it does not specify what idols it is meant to exclude. Steel1943 (talk) 14:36, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOTFAQ. GZWDer (talk) 08:38, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That argument, ultra strong or not, is essentially WP:NOTHOWTO. We've had loads of these and consens€s seems to be divided. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SimonTrew (talkcontribs) 20:32, 3 September 2015
I must confess my impartility wanes when an editor can't be bothered to refer to another editor except to say "The IP". At least when I disagree with user:WilyD I do so by name. Many IP editors actually have talk pages and stable IP addresses, but I suppose that would be too hard to check. 70.51 has a long history of comments here, but the back end of 70.51's addy does change occasionally.

The result of the discussion was no consensus. I'm not relisting because I really doubt there will be consensus to delete (cf. WP:SNOW). We're looking at a keep or no consensus outcome here, and they're functionally the same. I won't be adding any Rcats, but I wouldn't object to someone adding {{R unprintworthy}} here. May I suggest, however, that information about this phrase be added to Google (verb) and the term retargeted there? If it's explained there, I don't think another RfD would be necessary. --BDD (talk) 18:40, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I've merged these discussions since nom's rationale is the same and three subsequent comments could have (maybe were) copy-pasted between the discussions (mine was). Feel free to revert of course. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 18:30, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
