Only a passing mention at the current target as they are not the same town. I don't know that the town is notable (and so would benefit per WP:RFD#D10), but there are many other things mentioned in other articles called "Kalimna", such as the full name of Zonocypretta, and a Penfolds vineyard. I think best to delete to allow uninhibited search. A7V2 (talk) 08:20, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ukraine genocide (2nd nomination) closed with a solid delete consensus and then QueenofBithynia mentioned these redirects on my talk. I took care of the fairly new one, but this one is longstanding and thought it merited discussion so bringing it here.

Disambiguate as the genocide label is now frequently applied in reference to the war crimes in the ongoing Russian Invasion of Ukraine, and to allegations of genocidal intent in these crimes. Perhaps when the current conflict is resolved, assuming that there is broad consensus that Russia did not commit genocidal violence during the invasion, this can be turned back into a redirect to the Holodomor. But for now, it absolutely needs to be a disaumbiguation page to distinguish the Holodomor from 2022 Genocide allegations. Thereppy (talk) 13:09, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect should be deleted because the relevant content was removed from the target article per the policy of no original research. There is no indication that the subject is of encyclopedic notability (zero independent secondary sources) and that it should have an entry in that list or that a redirect is necessary. 4meter4 (talk) 03:29, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DNA experiments

[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. There's general agreement that the current targets are not ideal. Two other, reasonable targets were suggested but neither has consensus that it's unambiguously the correct one. The argument made by the later participants in favour of deletion - that this title is simply too broad to have a correct target - ultimately ends up being supported by the lack of consensus for an alternative, and the conclusion that these fall on the side of being unhelpful redirects. ~ mazca talk 20:14, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The current target of this redirect is rather surprising/astonishing since it's not about the actually subject of "DNA experiments", leads to a subject named "DNA experiment", or a list of experiments using DNA. I would have to believe there's a better target, but I'm not sure what. Steel1943 (talk) 20:00, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination updated with text in italics. Steel1943 (talk) 21:40, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nominator comment: For reference, a search for the term "DNA experiment" (DNA experiment doesn't exist) returns several examples of experiments that utilize DNA. In regards to an actual retargeting option for this redirect, what seems to be the best option I found is List of experiments#Biology, but even that does't seem to be good enough since the section includes several experiments not directly related to DNA. Possibly deletion would be the better option here so the search results are not hidden by an existing redirect forwarding readers to a specific page.

The DNA experiment in The Double Helix is the crucial experiment in a series of empirical investigations beginning with Gregor Mendel. As late as 1952 the fact that DNA is the genetic material was disputed. But a critical mass of results as noted below reframed the role of DNA. The DNA experiment redirects, in this case to Scientific method, as one more piece in a larger structure. Just as "Science is built of facts the way a house is built of bricks: but an accumulation of facts is no more science than a pile of bricks is a house” (Henri Poincaré)", it is the insight from the Scientific method that gives experiment its significance. I paraphrase from the Scientific method (Question, Hypotheses, Prediction, Experiment, Analysis) article:
  • Question "Previous investigation of DNA had determined its chemical composition (the four nucleotides), the structure of each individual nucleotide, and other properties. DNA had been identified as the carrier of genetic information by the Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment in 1944,[1][a] but the mechanism of how genetic information was stored in DNA was unclear."
  • Hypotheses "Linus Pauling, Francis Crick and James D. Watson hypothesized that DNA had a helical structure."
  • Prediction "If DNA had a helical structure, its X-ray diffraction pattern would be X-shaped.[2][3] This prediction was determined using the mathematics of the helix transform, which had been derived by Cochran, Crick, and Vand[4] (and independently by Stokes). This prediction was a mathematical construct, completely independent from the biological problem at hand."
  • Experiment Rosalind Franklin used pure DNA to perform X-ray diffraction to produce photo 51. The results showed an X-shape.
  • Analysis When Watson saw the detailed diffraction pattern, he immediately recognized it as a helix.[5][6][b] He and Crick then produced their model, using this information along with the previously known information about DNA's composition, especially Chargaff's rules of base pairing.[7]
The discovery became the starting point for many further studies involving the genetic material, such as the field of molecular genetics, and it was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1962. Each step of the example is examined in more detail later in the article.
In other words, the experiment becomes more than data, but reveals the significance of a finding through analysis. It's the crux of the Scientific method. (In this case, it was James Watson who realized the importance of the finding — see Footnote 6: his jaw dropped,and his pulse began to race.)

However, Watson then visits Wilkins' office, sees photo 51, and immediately recognizes the diffraction pattern of a helical structure. But additional questions remained, requiring additional iterations of their research. For example, the number of strands in the backbone of the helix (Crick suspected 2 strands, but cautioned Watson to examine that more critically), the location of the base pairs (inside the backbone or outside the backbone), etc. One key point was that they realized that the quickest way to reach a result was not to continue a mathematical analysis, but to build a physical model. Later that evening — Watson urges Wilkins to begin model-building immediately. But Wilkins agrees to do so only after Franklin's departure.

  • Retarget - I would also take this to 'history of molecular biology' given that scientific research on the practical side into DNA has preceded what we tend to think of as specific 'genetic eingeering'. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 13:58, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both. "DNA experiment" is simply too ambiguous to be a good redirect. It could refer to many different types of methodologies/techniques as well as numerous historically important results. Disambiguation doesn't make sense because "DNA experiment" isn't really a specific term that could refer to multiple specific things, instead it is a plausible search term, and we should let the search function do its job, as a disambiguation page could never be exhaustive. That said, since the discussion is trending toward retargeting somewhere, History of molecular biology seems like a superior target to Genetic engineering, as genetic engineering is much too specific (lots of scientific work, past and present, that could be described as a "DNA experiment" is outside the context of genetic engineering). Mdewman6 (talk) 01:08, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete DNA experiment which was created as part of this discussion to aid as a disambiguation page, but which wound up as redirect to another target (a new unreferenced section). Delete DNA experiments as a term that can potentially target multiple targets. Both Genetic engineering and History of molecular biology are too broad. If retargeting, I would have preferred refining to Genetic engineering#Research. Jay (talk) 04:02, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom and Mdewman6. Either of the proposed targets would be forcing this very general search term to a specific narrower term, which risks obscuring material relevant to a reader's query. Search results are rarely ideal, but in cases like these, it's better to be broad. --BDD (talk) 19:15, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Duck Ponds

The result of the discussion was disambiguate. Retargeted to the newly created Duck pond (disambiguation). Jay (talk) 07:56, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect has targeted the Lara article since 2005 as it is, according to the article, a former name for the area. However I really don't think this is the primary topic. I'm not sure what is the primary topic (if there is one) however. Presumably it would be either Duck Ponds, South Australia or simply Duck pond. There's a general lack of disambiguation in the "duck pond" area anyway however, so it might be good to have a disambiguation page which could include the plural also, including other terms such as Duck Pond (Judges Guild), Ducky Pond, Duck Pond Run and Duck Pond mine but again I'm not sure. Also note Duck ponds doesn't exist. A7V2 (talk) 07:52, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have assembled links here. Of the pages you mentioned only 2 are explicitly plural. If i had to !not-vote, I'd say make a dab (or just move mine I don't mind) and point duck ponds at it, or make two and split the singular and plural, I really don't know. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 23:48, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think unless someone has a strong opinion on a primary topic for Duck Ponds, we should retarget to Duck pond (disambiguation) (which I will shortly move your draft to since it can at the very least be hatted from Duck pond). I don't think it's worth having a dab for just two entries. A7V2 (talk) 03:41, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Now that @A7V2: has moved my dab to mainspace, I agree with the other two and say Retarget to the new dab, as well as create the lowercase you redlinked. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 23:06, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
