February 22

[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on February 22, 2016.

Alaska City, Alaska

[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 Anchorage, Alaska. --BDD (talk) 15:53, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I think this redirect should be deleted, because there is no Alaska City, and this points to a list of cities, so I think it is plausible readers could think the wrong thing, since it is titled like an article on a city would be. MelanieLamont (talk) 15:12, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You're close... The "biggest" city in Kansas is Wichita, unless we're counting Metropolitan areas. Even then, most of the Kansas City metro is in Missouri... On the other side of the coin, places like Florida City and Tennessee City barely register on the map! (I know it was probably a hyperbole, but I couldn't resist spreading the fun facts!) -- Tavix (talk)
  • Retarget per NCFF, great job of digging up this nugget! (gold rush pun?) Earlier, I had noticed that Anchorage was the original target before Beeblebrox retargeted it in 2014, and had noticed a correlation in my Google search, but was unable to connect the dots. I'm glad to see that there is, in fact, a connection. -- Tavix (talk) 19:14, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As far as rcats go, would {{R from historic name}} be appropriate? -- Tavix (talk) 19:31, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
{{R from historic name}} has a very narrow scope note. I doubt I've used it more than once or twice, if at all. However, I also doubt the 1000+ uses of it really fit that scope note, so perhaps it should be changed. I assigned {{R from former name}}, though that might not really be accurate either. --BDD (talk) 15:53, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:48, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as an outdated redirect since "Levi's Stadium" is no longer a "proposed" stadium, but fully operational. -- Tavix (talk) 15:07, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete and encourage article creation. Deryck C. 17:29, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The redirects are of a single building in the cities and do not concern the cities at large. Articles about the buildings could possibly be written later since the buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Dudemanfellabra (talk) 08:44, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The high school redirects are placeholders. They should be kept. --bender235 (talk) 14:42, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:46, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as nonsense. I've read the entire page trying to figure out what this could be, and couldn't figure it out. There's literally nothing there that could be "QW." -- Tavix (talk) 06:29, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly, it seems I'm not iconic enough to merit Wikipedia:BDD. --BDD (talk) 15:46, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Startingly

The result of the discussion was delete "Startingly"; procedural close others as it seems that we're heading towards solutions that don't require deletion. Feel free to trout-slap me and unbundle-relist if you think we should actually delete. Deryck C. 22:45, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Neelix redirects that bear closer examination. Legacypac (talk) 06:28, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the first two while keeping the last one, which is an obscure but seemingly valid medical term (see uses in medicine-related books here and here). There may need to be a re-targeting to some alternate medical article, though. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 07:37, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Startingly. Keep Spasmodics; the article for Spasmodic poets uses the word "Spasmodics" in reference to George Gilfillan's "encouragement of the young Spasmodics." I'm not really sure what to do with Spasmology, though my intuition tells me that spasm may be a less surprising target. As for Spasmodic, Spasm includes a hatnote that directs readers to the article for Spasmodic poets. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 09:11, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to List of gestures#Gestures made with other body parts. --BDD (talk) 15:42, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects to Gesture that aren't mention in article. Also, Neelix redirects. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 06:06, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. The Pax Romana is not a Chinese topic. -- Tavix (talk) 06:03, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 15:39, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Wp:XY: could be a typo/misspelling for either Park Seong-ho or Paik Seung-ho. Additionally, there's various folks who actually have this name & might be notable (see ko:박승호); this redirect interferes with searches for mentions of those people on English Wikipedia, and could be WP:R#D2 confusing as well. 58.176.246.42 (talk) 05:48, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, inter-language soft redirects are generally considered unhelpful. -- Tavix (talk) 00:44, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

IPs can't vote, though. 333-blue 13:07, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both. First, IPs can vote. However, this redirect is entirely useless and unhelpful to any English speaker who comes across it. If this is some code that represents Chinese, then you could maybeee argue a redirect to Chinese language or script. But, Hans is a common name in Germany, so a redirect to anything about Chinese makes no sense at all. Hant doesn't seem to refer to anything. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 14:17, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both in particular per 58.176, who is of course always welcome to !vote. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 17:35, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
