[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace/Multi-level templates. I still don't know what the IM stands for... ~ Amory (u • t • c) 14:00, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget. This essay is a decade old, but appears to have only been cited twice in all that time. I think Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace/Multi-level templates would be a more logical target.  — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 15:45, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Update: GorillaWarfare told me over IRC that she thinks it "was a mistaken link" on her part. So that leaves (at most) one time it's ever been linked intentionally. — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 05:44, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Killiondude (talk) 07:40, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as just kind of senseless; this sentiment could apply to anything, and it's not even correct (there are plenty of circumstances under which a video game cover image should be changed, e.g. because it's a non-English one and an English one is available, because it's a blurry image, and so on. This "commandment" also smacks of WP:OWN / WP:VESTED issues.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  06:32, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete 8 years ago it was a thing where there were frequent fights over which infobox image was the "correct" one, to the point where the redirect target has to say "If a suitable English-language cover art already exists on the subject page, then do not waste time replacing it with a different version.". 8 years on, it's not such a big deal, and the redirect is not terribly specific. --PresN 12:49, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - This doesn't seem worth keeping to me either. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 09:31, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Killiondude (talk) 07:40, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Seems too overly specific and implausible as a redirect. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 06:19, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was soft redirect to Invincibility. (non-admin closure) Galobtter (pingó mió) 06:31, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How in the name of all that is holy is "invincibility" only pertinent to video games? Perhaps this should be a soft Wiktionary redirect instead. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 06:17, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Formerly pointed to a list of monsters. Implausible for this to redirect to a list of sentient races. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 06:00, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal. Killiondude (talk) 07:42, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Retarget to Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal, with {{Redr|{{R to section}}}}, to match WP:GAMEGUIDE, WP:NOT#GAMEGUIDE, and WP:NOTGAMEGUIDE. These are not appropriate alternative names for MOS:VG. "WP is not a [video] game guide" is a common phrase in correcting improper writing about games here, so the proposed target is a far more plausible, thus the pre-existing shortcuts.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  05:55, 4 February 2018 (UTC); revised to include Wikipedia:VGGUIDE, 06:18, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence of necessity of the "www." prefix. Just "Poptropica.com" is much more appropriate. Bneu2013 (talk) 05:52, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all of these, per nom. If they are things that should be in the article, they can be added and the redirects selectively re-created after they are actually appropriate.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  06:34, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Warcraft. May be weak references but cheap and plausible search term James of UR (talk) 22:30, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target article. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 05:45, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Retarget to Warcraft where it is mentioned. Weak since it is simply mentioned (uncited) once in the article --Lenticel (talk) 00:29, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retarget per Lenticel. Honestly surprised there aren't more mentions of the locations in the universe. I think having this is useful to prevent creation of a non-notable article. Besides, the name is innocuous enough that someone might come across it without knowing what it was. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 13:54, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Currently a redirect to an agency. No evidence of necessity of this particular redirect, since it doesn't appear to be a common name for the organization's website. Bneu2013 (talk) 05:43, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
