This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on January 9, 2018.

The Little Mermaid (2017 film)

[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 no consensus. -- Tavix (talk) 17:08, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The film was not and will not be released in 2017. Steel1943 (talk) 16:21, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Incoming links can be moved to the 2018 film as there will stlll be interest in an upcoming film. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 16:56, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Valid {{R from move}}. This is a redirect from a page that has been moved (renamed). This page was kept as a redirect to avoid breaking links, both internal and external, that may have been made to the old page name. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:02, 31 December 2017 (UTC) Can be tagged as {{R unprintworthy}}. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:03, 31 December 2017 (UTC) Still receiving 100 views a day, pretty good views for a redirect. It was at the title long enough. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:07, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, actively misleading redirect. —Xezbeth (talk) 07:15, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per PinkAmpersand and {{R from move}}. I don't understand the "incoming links can be moved" argument, we can't edit external traffic generators. Tag with {{R from incorrect title}} if it's such a big deal. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 21:50, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

WP:REDLINK. Grimm seems to be Puckler's most prominent role, but he's also mentioned at Death Racers and The Butchers (2014 film), among others. BDD (talk) 18:18, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 16:08, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As "circum-Pacific" means "around the Pacific", the redirect is too vague and could refer to any war in the Pacific, real or fictional. This poses a problem and it should be deleted. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 16:42, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No such song on album. No practical use. Richhoncho (talk) 13:55, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@BDD:. Be my guest, if I had the patience to work out how to do it, I would have done it. --Richhoncho (talk) 20:36, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 16:05, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect scope is two topics, but targets one of the two articles. Creates confusion when we have two articles, causing hatnotes at target for 2nd article, and potentially making articles harder to search for. WP:R#DELETE 1, 2, 5 Widefox; talk 12:40, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Widefox: FWIW - no problem whatsoever whatever is decided with this issue - hoped my efforts in making the redirect might be helpful - but apparently not - hope this helps in some way - in any case - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 13:36, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The game does not redefine the concept of "penance" therefore this redirect is pointless. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:57, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 15:41, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We typically don't use abbreviations as disambiguations, so this redirect is unnecessary. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:35, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. There's no rule that a redirect needs to use valid disambiguation; a plausible search term is a plausible search term. And the German Final Fantasy Wikia indeed uses this title, so that's at least one place that does. However, at 22 pageviews in 2017, I'm unconvinced anyone is actually searching for this. (Also, TIL that we have an interwiki prefix for the Final Fantasy Wikia.) — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 11:15, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect disambiguation - not a video game. There is no reason for the redirect to exist. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:34, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep and delete, respectively. --BDD (talk) 18:01, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Overly vague redirect that can refer to magical wars in many games and other media. Best to delete and let the search do its job. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:32, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Charles IV Maximilien de Lalaing

[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 delete. -- Tavix (talk) 15:40, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Invented name, not used outside Wikipedia. He is never referred to as "Charles IV Maximilien", always as "Charles", "Charles Maximilien", or "Charles Maximilien Jacques de Lalaing". Fram (talk) 08:22, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • There are too much Charles in this family, simple rule: use numbers.--Carolus (talk) 08:24, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete unless the creator can provide a source showing that this is a possible usage somewhere otherwise we are clearly in an exemple of #8 in WP:RFD#DELETE. The article itself contains highly improbable redlinks with a numbering that is inconsistant with English or French usage. The page itself contains a lot of unsourced information and will need cleaning up. It says "He served in the United-Kingdom between 1904-1917, during the First World war." this makes no sense whatsoever. I would almost suggest draftifying the article to allow the creator to work on it because as such it falls very short of the quality necessary for an acceptable article. Domdeparis (talk) 10:39, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - As stated above, this doesn't appear to be used anywhere outside of Wikipedia. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 10:42, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this man was a nobleman, not a ruler or royalty, so NCRAN assigns him no numeral. This manufacture of titles and styles in defiance of standard convention is, as Fram notes above, becoming a disruptive pattern despite repeated warnings. FactStraight (talk)
I wonder if a temporary topic ban might cut out the rather tedious work of cleaning up after this editor, or maybe a mentorship? Domdeparis (talk) 10:35, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - even if this individual were assigned an ordinal, they were not the fourth Charles in this family, nor the fourth Charles Maximilien. If he were commonly referred to as Charles IV anyway, this would be indicated by reliable sources. Creator should read WP:OR and not create any more of these redirects.

Citadel council

[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 no consensus. (non-admin closure) Galobtter (pingó mió) 06:06, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Overly vague to redirect anywhere. Should be left up to the search function. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 02:02, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as per nom. There are a lot of citadels (real ones I mean) and most will have some sort of council. Domdeparis (talk) 17:28, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Please help me out here and give evidence for other things this could refer to. When I search this phrase, I exclusively get results for Mass Effect. It's also described at the target, so it's a cromulent redirect from that standpoint. -- Tavix (talk) 01:49, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The citadella or citadel in Gozo was administered by a council for nearly 200 years Cittadella_(Gozo)#Medieval_period The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina has a number of councils here is one we're not saying that there aren't a lot of GHITS but the redirect is too vague. It could be Citadel council (Mass effect video game) which would come up in a search. Domdeparis (talk) 18:07, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep per Tavix. The phrase does sound generic, but we don't seem to be coming up with anything else that would simply be called "Citadel Council". I don't see the Cittadella's Università or anything at The Citadel likely being referred to as such; indeed, precisely because The Citadel has many councils, referring to any one as "Citadel Council" wouldn't be helpful. --BDD (talk) 18:05, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
