Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. is:Rauður is an Icelandic language term, and red has no affinity with that language. -- Tavix (talk) 19:35, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

just a spelling wrong Suchichi02 (talk · contribs · central auth · count · email) 08:57, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - {{R from misspelling}}, stats suggest marginal use. I have no idea why it suddenly got 80 hits yesterday. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 15:13, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. Seems like a plausible misspelling. Steel1943 (talk) 13:36, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - not a plausible misspelling. It's just a typo. It only seems like a plausible misspelling for someone who doesn't know the language, which is why these transliterations are an issue. Again, consider the search mechanic - by the time you get to the error, you'll have found the target. MSJapan (talk) 00:40, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, BDD (talk) 19:08, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep as I wouldn't expect anyone to spell "Hongyundadao" correctly. -- Tavix (talk) 19:36, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per MSJapan. SSTflyer 06:16, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep - people who know the language are not the only ones looking for this, nor are they the ones most likley to make the typo. Secondly, the search mechanic described by MSJapan only applies to those readers who are using Wikipedia's internal search function with javascript available and enabled. There are many other ways to search and browse for Wikpedia articles which rely on the whole article title being typed somewhere (e.g. URL bar). Thryduulf (talk) 02:20, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Large integer
[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 Large number (disambiguation). ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 05:11, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Large integer → Arbitrary-precision arithmetic (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
By looking at the redirect's history as an article as well as the target article and its one passing mention of the term as stated in the redirect (which seems to prove that the redirect is not synonymous with the subject of the article), the redirect seems misleading due to the subject of the redirect not being defined in the target article. Steel1943 (talk) 03:37, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget largest number (which only lists integers anyways). shoy (reactions) 12:48, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep or delete. Retargeting to largest number will be confusing as this isn't what large integer is normally used to mean. Uanfala (talk) 11:35, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, BDD (talk) 19:04, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep "large integer" is a reasonably common synonym for "bignum", which is also an (appropriate) redirect to Arbitrary-precision arithmetic. A retarget to largest number is definitely inappropriate. Rwessel (talk) 19:36, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to Large number (disambiguation). I have moved Largest number to Large number (disambiguation) and added Arbitrary-precision arithmetic as one of the alternatives. I hope this covers all possible uses of this term. —Ruud 21:05, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget per Ruud. Thryduulf (talk) 02:22, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

- Voice of America News.com → Voice of America (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Borderline nonsense. voiceofamericanews.com doesn't exist, and this obviously wouldn't work as a URL either (the organization's actual website is voanews.com). Unlikely search term now, and potentially harmful if the longer domain name is squatted. We've deleted many such fake URLs before. --BDD (talk) 19:04, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

I want to make Set index articles. Score Four and 3-D Tic-Tac-Toe, Kaplansky's 4-in-a-line are also called Four-in-a-row or Four-in-a-line. --CxHy (talk) 02:05, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- Dabify - I think there's a range of articles that a reader could be looking for using these queries, I would create a disambig page for this concept. shoy (reactions) 12:52, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep as primary topic but if you need to dab, go for it. Score Four is the 3D connect four so that is covered by a "See also". AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:55, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was delete.---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 00:19, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Beyond the Birds and the Bees → Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex* (*But Were Afraid to Ask) (book) (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Beyond the Birds and the Bees has no obvious connection to the book it's redirecting too, no links, no history, six views in the last year (including me, today). Should be removed. Rwessel (talk) 17:44, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as vague. It's the title of a book by Greg and Lisa Popcak who had a show on The Catholic Channel, but they do not even have an article. It's also the title of various news and blog articles, but not the Everything book. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:23, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

АА
[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 A (Cyrillic). Thryduulf (talk) 02:24, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
Not two capital As, but two A (Cyrillic). Two Cyrillic As is not the same as two Latin As. The only page that links here is Scrabble letter distributions#Tuvan. It appears that the Tuvan language might use two Cyrillic As as a distinct letter from one. Recommend delete. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 13:29, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as likely to cause confusion. Basically 0 hits. shoy (reactions) 14:01, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - unless It's my browser I literally see no difference between the 2 but anyway as noted above it'll only cause confusions, –Davey2010Talk 14:20, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete or Redirect to A (Cyrillic) This is one of those Digraph (orthography) double vowel/double letter cases. So the scrabble one should redirect both uses of A to A (Cyrillic) and add a note that in Tuvan language the A can be doubled as a digraph. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:44, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Adding the long vowel case and then adding disambiguation entry. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:54, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- The other digraphs in the scrabble article ЭЭ, ОО, УУ, ЫЫ, ИИ, ӨӨ, ҮҮ are all redlinked at the moment. Should they redirect to the single letter or should the redlinks be removed as with Welsh and other languages? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:16, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- I think they should get linked to their single letters. Why pick on digraphs? ;-) — Gorthian (talk) 18:29, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to A (Cyrillic) per AngusWOOF. All the single Cyrillic letters are linked. I think the other digraphs should get linked to their single versions for now. There needs to be a brief explanation on the redirect page, though. Visually, there's no difference between АА and AA. — Gorthian (talk) 18:29, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to A (Cyrillic), which explains that
"In Tuvan the letter can be written as a double vowel."
-- Notecardforfree (talk) 20:57, 14 June 2016 (UTC) - Retarget to A (Cyrillic) per above --Lenticel (talk) 00:06, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to A (Cyrillic) per above. That seems to be the best target. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 00:38, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

These were all created in error. These should all probably be G6'ed, but I'm listing them here just in case. Steel1943 (talk) 02:10, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete as unlikely synonyms. I'm also leaning to delete as housekeeping --Lenticel (talk) 03:03, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete all WP:G6 per above. Unusual but obviously good faith errors. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 12:12, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete all per nom. Agreed with housekeeping. None of these terms are editing related and were probably created when the editor realized they created that article and had to rename it. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:17, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Open Sesame (phrase).---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 00:18, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
Per the edit history, this redirect targets its current because once upon a time, Open sesame did as well. Either way, this is an unlikely and unnotable transposition of the words. Steel1943 (talk) 02:03, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Weak Retarget to Open Sesame (phrase) it seems to be one of the original variant of the phrase --Lenticel (talk) 03:05, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- Support retarget per Lenticel as it is discussed there. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:25, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
