Implausible search term, given that Brimstone already exists as a disambiguation page that lists sulfur as the primary topic. LaundryPizza03 (talk) 17:06, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
- Weak keep as
{{R from unnecessary disambiguation}}

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Killiondude (talk) 19:22, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

FORRED; absolutely no reason for Spanish language redirects. Spanish has nothing to do with medieval Eastern Europe. Surtsicna (talk) 19:54, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
- Keep: Spanish has nothing to do with medieval Eastern Europe...hmm...Bosley John Bosley (talk) 20:11, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
- Could you, as the creator of these redirects, please explain what you mean by "hmm"? Surtsicna (talk) 20:26, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
- Hum (sound), a wordless vocalization Bosley John Bosley (talk) 21:08, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
- So, you have no argument at all in favor of keeping these redirects. Noted. Surtsicna (talk)
- I no not contest or other action if tackled in an objective manner: Wikipedia: Policy on Spanish Language? I have raised an issue on the FORRED (WP:explanatory supplement) page. Bosley John Bosley (talk) 13:32, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

- Weak Keep: Person searching for a saint would most probably search the saint in one of the the popular titles/names, so a redirect would help him land on the right page. Though I dont know if this is a reason enough to create a redirect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ScitDei (talk • contribs)
- What? In what universe is "Emerico de Hungría (santo)" a popular English name for the Hungarian saint? It's not even popular in Spanish! Surtsicna (talk) 15:12, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
- "Emerico de Hungría (santo)". If you then click the side bar it will take you to Saint Emeric of Hungary...If you then click Español it will take you back to the Spanish version. Bosley John Bosley (talk) 16:17, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. There's no relation between the subject and the Spanish language, so there's no reason for someone to search in this manner. -- Tavix (talk) 02:21, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

- Delete per BDD per nom. ―Matthew J. Long -Talk-☖ 18:43, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- But really though, BDD and I have both reverted edits of the creator on Wikipedia:Redirects from foreign languages. I'm all for trying to change policy you don't agree with, but I don't agree with how this editor has gone about doing that. If they seek a change, they should follow WP:PGCHANGE and WP:TALKFIRST―Matthew J. Long -Talk-☖ 18:43, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- Jeez...It is not strictly necessary to discuss changes or to obtain written documentation of a consensus in advance...can you idiots not see the grammatical error in your reverts? Bosley John Bosley (talk) 20:05, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- It's not strictly necessary because of WP:BOLD. However, when you have been reverted, like you have been several times now, consensus for your change is required. Additionally, if you want to fix a grammar error, it's best to simply fix the grammar rather than removing the entire sentence. -- Tavix (talk) 20:28, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

- Commercially released independent game → List of Dreamcast homebrew games (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Such a subject is not exclusive to Dreamcast games. Steel1943 (talk) 17:35, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
Delete – presumably refers to indie games, though it's a bit of a long-winded search term for them. PriceDL (talk) 00:08, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as a bit long and ambigous synonym for indie games --Lenticel (talk) 01:03, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

This phrase isn't mentioned in the target article. Otherwise, it looks like the name of a news article, book, or opinion piece. Steel1943 (talk) 16:45, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete it probably is supposed to be a book title, missing a "the" (OCLC 966067697, a self-published essay collection). WP:UNDUE to mention that book at the target; don't see anywhere else it would fit either (none of the authors seem to have Wikipedia articles), and it doesn't look individually notable either. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 02:31, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- Added two other variations on the same title to the nomination. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 02:33, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

- Nick Lucero → Peter Murphy (musician) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete. It's jarringly confusing (and WP:UNDUE) to have Nick Lucero redirect to someone else's bio, and Murphy's recent-ish touring band (which has never had a long-term stable lineup) is only one of several notable bands with which Lucero is associated (Queens of the Stone Age, Mob Research, and probably others). He's almost certainly independently notable, but no one's likely to create the article any time soon if it's not a red link. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ< 15:07, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. This redirect, for me anyway, doesn't seem to make any sense. VibeScepter (talk) 11:55, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

- University Station (MTR proposed) → HKU station (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This redirect is no longer correct, since HKU station opened in 2014. Perhaps delete? Jc86035 (talk) 07:43, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. Inaccurate redirect unused in mainspace and extremely unlikely to be used by readers. James (talk/contribs) 13:37, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

- The Lost Aurolithic Civilization → Aurolithic Civilization (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

- The result of the discussion was delete. Killiondude (talk) 07:21, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
This is just a transliteration of "Disney" into Chinese, so the MTR station is not necessarily an appropriate target (and there are also a Disney park and a Disney Resort Station in Shanghai). Would it be appropriate to redirect this to The Walt Disney Company, or should this be deleted? Jc86035 (talk) 07:29, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

甲山
[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 disambiguate. Restore {{Chinese title disambiguation}} as was done here (non-admin closure) Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 15:12, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
There is nothing at the target called 甲山; meanwhile there are three other topics on Wikipedia called 甲山, none of which are transcribed as Koyama. I attempted to make this into a {{Chinese title disambiguation}}, which is what is usually done when multiple topics share the same name but with different transcriptions. However this was reverted, so I am bringing it here for discussion. I could see a case for deletion too, but not for keeping it as is. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 06:36, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Support, WP:TRANSLITERATE does not apply to Chinese title disambiguation pages. LaundryPizza03 (talk) 23:32, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Dabify per nom --Lenticel (talk) 01:04, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- Support I am fine with keeping the separate disambiguation page for 甲山 (though it should include a link to the Koyama disambiguation page since there are Japanese place names using 甲山 read as Kōyama: see ja:甲山_(曖昧さ回避)). I would have appreciated this IP user explaining their argument in the original edit comment (which was not coherent) and/or making this argument on the talk page (or my talk page) before bringing it here. Michitaro (talk) 04:07, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
- Support making a dab. WP:TRANSLITERATE shouldn't apply as a dab page is a navigational aid, not an article. —Xezbeth (talk) 14:00, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

- Angelo Pergolito → Jimmy Cavallo (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2017 June 16 § Angelo Pergolito – retarget to Jimmy Cavallo
Delete. The redirect makes no sense as the page to which this redirect redirects does not actually mention Angelo Pergolito. Further, it's unlikely an article on Angelo Pergolito will ever come into being; one has already been AfD'ed and multiple WP:BEFORE searches of Angelo Pergolito have failed to find anything other than proof he once existed. Chetsford (talk) 02:37, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per nominator. There do not seem to be WP:RS which mention Mr. Pergolito (best thing I could find is [1], everything else is personal webpages and mirrors of the deleted Wikipedia articles). So there's no way to add content about him anywhere even as a mention on the Jimmy Cavallo article, and hence we have nowhere to send readers. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 05:15, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
