Sky Kids

[edit]

The result of the discussion was Disambiguate and retarget.

This redirect should be turned into a DAB page with 3 entries that are already on the hatnote of the current target. (Sky Kids (TV channel), The Flyboys (film), and also the current target and Sky Kid in See also) From Bassie f (his talk page) 21:36, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Similar page with the same spelling but with two exclamation marks after it was deleted per a previous deletion discussion. Nothing notable about this capitalization, other than the fact that Mr. Krabs yells Squidward's name in some episodes. WP:COSTLY redirect. Colgatepony234 (talk) 20:38, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Signpost/Quick Start

[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. While there is some merit in the keep argument that there is potential for harm, the harm would be limited to an obscure part of project space, and deletion would apparently be beneficial to the organization of the Signpost, according to the EIC. If there is an issue, undeletion is always possible. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:04, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect that is not in use anywhere. No incoming links except for Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Omni-index and Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Omni-index/Linkshere, two pages populated by scripts I wrote to catalog Signpost pages that have no incoming links. One of my major projects as editor-in-chief is to harmonize the use of templates and pages, as the existence of numerous redundant templates (deprecated, never used, or created at the wrong title by typos) poses a large obstacle to navigating or editing Signpost templates. For example, old Signpost articles (from 2005 to 2009) were never properly indexed by the module, because they used strange idiosyncratic header templates, which I recently fixed, allowing me to write a script which updated the module with their titles, authors and tags. Someone has requested that I list these pages at XFD individually rather than nominate them for speedy deletion. jp×g 00:52, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:CHEAP WP:RHARMFUL. This nomination is a possible solution in search of a problem, especially the redirect is a {{R from move}}, doesn't qualify for {{Db-subpage}}, is in the "Wikipedia:" namespace (which is not as stringent on page titles as the article space), and has existed for nearly a decade. Deletion has the potential to create more harm than good. Steel1943 (talk) 16:01, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Changed from WP:CHEAP to WP:RHARMFUL per the comments below, and since it falls more in line with my stance on this. Steel1943 (talk) 20:37, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Steel1943: Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates is a zoo which I have been trying to clean up for weeks. The reason I am doing this on my own is because there are basically no other Signpost maintainers: everyone else who's tried to make sense of how this extremely baroque system of templates works has gotten exhausted and quit. I am not psychic, so I can't say why for sure, but my guess is because it is impossible to figure out how the template system works. It is not documented anywhere. The only option is to go through about a half-dozen different PrefixIndexes for completely random variations on template prefixes. Within these prefixindexes, it is furthermore basically impossible (without opening every single one and checking WLH individually) which templates are in use by current processes, which of them are deprecated, which of them were intended to be used and never implemented, and which of them exist solely because of typos made during the process of creating the template. Here, I am trying to get rid of only the last category, redirects at error titles with no incoming links. For example, you can see a bunch of redirects listed here under Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:. This is not how any actual Signpost templates are formatted: they are either supposed to be at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/ or Template:Signpost/, and sometimes at Wikipedia:Signpost/Templates/. There are literally no pages that invoke these misnamed redirects, and they should never have existed. It is completely inconceivable to me that anyone who is writing internal Signpost templates would decide to randomly start moving them between Signpost/Template:, Signpost/Templates/, Wikipedia Signpost/Template:, and Wikipedia Signpost/Templates prefixes, which is the only situation in which these redirects would ever have incoming links. What is the envisioned use case for them? jp×g 03:16, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    For the record, Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:Suggestion-featured, Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:Signpost-snippet/temp, and Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:Signpost-article-start-end all closed as delete. jp×g 05:45, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • JPxG, Steel1943, I'm not sure what the full backstory of Someone has requested that I list these pages at XFD individually rather than nominate them for speedy deletion. is, but given that these discussion all have the same copy-pasted rationale and !vote, could we at least merge them together into a single discussion? signed, Rosguill talk 17:04, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Rosguill: By all means, go for it. (I wasn't a fan of having to copy/paste my response a bunch of times ...and change a word or two when applicable ... anyways.) Steel1943 (talk) 18:13, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    ...And if only one of my comments are kept in tact, please leave my version of the comment that contains the word "nearly" instead of "over" so it makes sense for all of the redirects. (That version is in the discussion I'm posting this comment in [before any merges occur].) Thanks! Steel1943 (talk) 18:16, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • @JPxG: As someone who has attempted to clean up redirects (as well as subpages with parent page that were never updated) in the "Wikipedia:" namespace before for weeks on end (seriously, I forget what year I did a bunch of cleanup, but I was at it for almost a month ... such as getting all pages that began with "Wikipedia:Votes for deletion" moved to properly renamed WP:XFD titles), I commend your efforts to attempt to get this quest further done as you have been trying. However, this is one of those cases where these redirects have some potential historical value due to their age. My rule of thumb in all of this with everything I've discovered is if the redirect does not qualify for {{Db-subpage}} or is not the result of an editor mistakenly using the "Wikipedia:" namespace instead of the intended namespace (you may be surprised how many editors mistakenly use the "Wikipedia:" namespace instead of the "Draft:" namespace to create new article drafts), then it is probably better to remain instead of being deleted. These redirects do not fall under either one of my aforementioned situations, so I am under the belief that their deletion will cause more harm than good. (However, with all this being said, I'm in no position or have time to adequately validate that these redirects are targeting the most applicable page; there may be some rationale to retarget some of these if a more applicable page exists, but again per what I said, deletion should really not be an option here.) Steel1943 (talk) 06:25, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Steel1943: I agree with you on preserving historical pages. For example, I have been keeping almost all of the unused Signpost pages from 2005 in a kind of special museum, and have been fixing all the pages from 2005 to make them actually readable. For these pages, though, I don't think that any such historical record exists: the history for Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:Signpost-block-end-v2 has only a single revision from 2017 when the redirect was created. The whole source text was generated automatically by a script, as well as the edit summary TheDJ moved page Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:Signpost-block-end-v2 to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2: align with naming conventions. jp×g 21:20, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. No incoming links and the group and individual that work on the group of pages, deem it to be a burden for maintenance. Since the "cheap" essay above was quoted, I'll counter with WP:COSTLY. Gonnym (talk) 10:39, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Gonnym: Fair enough ... changed to WP:RHARMFUL since I definitely linked the wrong essay precedent. Steel1943 (talk) 20:37, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:RDELETE points #1 and #2 are very similar to what jp×g was talking about. Gonnym (talk) 21:26, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Per my comments above, I disagree either of them apply. Too much potential to break stuff be deleting these redirects. Retargeting to any more applicable page(s) may be an alternative, if that applies. Steel1943 (talk) 02:06, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    If they are unused, nothing will break, and if it somehow does break, we can fix it. But keeping these, we know for 100% that it makes life extremely harder for those that actually use this set of templates. The pros for me outweigh any theoretical cons. Gonnym (talk) 10:14, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Some of these redirects are over 10 years old, most of which are {{R from move}}s, which makes the claim of calling these are "theoretical cons" less likely. Safest thing here would be to makes sure none of these redirects have incoming links (which apparently has already happened), make sure their new/current targets target pages that do not have the same parent page (which seems to have already happened), and then don't pay these redirects any more mind while retaining their historical integrity for those who may have used/needed these titles in the past. Steel1943 (talk) 13:33, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Steel1943. No benefit comes from deleting, but there is potential harm from deleting. A7V2 (talk) 12:12, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I find JPxG's arguments that no one will miss these redirects convincing, and would give them more deference as the Signpost EIC as the "leader" of this subspace, like we give users wide latitude to manage their userspace. Legoktm (talk) 04:09, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. These are all redirects from moves, without anything else in their history. Almost all of the target pages had spend small periods of time at the redirect's titles (between minutes and weeks), the only exception being Wikipedia:Signpost/Template:Signpost-article-comments-end/preload (which was the title of the page from 2009 to 2015). Also, these redirects are for various gogs in a, obscure complicated backstage machinery, so compared to the reader-facing parts of the encyclopedia, there's very little need to be careful about breaking external links. So, I don't see any plausible benefit in those redirects. I don't personally see much harm either, but if the editor who's taken up maintaining the whole complicated machinery says that they get in the way, then that's a strong enough reason for me. – Uanfala (talk) 17:45, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sexual activity

[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 keep. signed, Rosguill talk 04:12, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There's quite a large literature relating to non-human sexual activity, to such an extent that I don't think that Human sexual activity is going to be the primary topic here. I'm unsure if this would be better served as a dab page or with some other resolution, but I don't think the current status makes sense in light of WP:PTOPIC. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 04:59, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@BD2412: I don't think article titles need to be "human-centric." The articles about the human brain, human digestive system and human anatomy are specifically about humans, so they include human in the title to avoid confusion. Jarble (talk) 16:31, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We don't have an article on Animal sexual activity at all (we do have Animal sexual behaviour), so perhaps humans are more inclined to assume that sexual activity is more of a human function, and sexual behavior is more of an animal function. BD2412 T 16:59, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm increasingly thinking this should be a dab between Animal sexual behaviour and human sexual activity, though I'm not wedded to the idea. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:30, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • The main thing that comes to mind here is to retarget to Sex (disambiguation), whose first section (§ Biology and behaviour) disambiguates these two terms and others like Sexual intercourse. As an aside, I've been thinking for a while now that that DAB page should be moved to the base title, and the current article at Sex moved to something like Sex (trait). The vast majority of uses of the word "sex" in common parlance are in reference to some sort of sexual activity, to the extent that the trait called sex is often disambiguated as "biological sex" (a misnomer but oh well). Academic sources meanwhile are decidedly equivocal in their usage of the word. But again, that would need an RM. (Oh also, oppose any move of Human sexual activity to Sexual activity without an RM, since such a proposal failed at RM in 2017. If there's a desire for such a move here, this should be closed as "Refer to RM" rather than "Move".) -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 20:03, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support retargeting to Sex (disambiguation). We are an encyclopedia for humans, but about everything. Clearly humans are not the only species to have sexual activity. Libcub (talk) 04:32, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per Kusma, the hatnotes are perfect. And also per BD2412 who has differentiated activity and behavior. Sexual behavior also redirects to Human sexual activity, and if we have a separate RfD on that, I'll be willing for a retarget vote. Jay 💬 08:15, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Revert. The content originally here was boldly merged to Great Jedi Purge in 2009, part that article was in turn boldly merged to Clone Wars (Star Wars) by TenTonParasol in 2016, however despite the edit summaries suggesting a full merge only the further reading section seems to have been copied (and that is still present). I recommend reverting to the article content and having a discussion about what, if anything, should be merged and if so what the best place to merge it to should be as I can find no evidence this has happened at any point. Thryduulf (talk) 00:43, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Ah, 2016, when I did things less carefully. As far as I can tell, the content is housed between Jedi, Clone Wars (Star Wars) at a more high level summary level, and various The Clone Wars 2008 articles because, well, as the nominator remarks, all this was fancruft and related fannish bloat. I have no opinions either way as to whether a formal discussion should take place. ~Cheers, TenTonParasol 05:24, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Both Another pair of old Star Wars redirects with a complex history, which appears to partly have been due to one of the old Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) policies. The second redirect should be deleted at a minimum due to the capitalization, but I otherwise agree with Thryduulf's opinion on reverting. --Super Goku V (talk) 09:44, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete both per nom, no such list exists. Delete the 2nd due to the capitalization per Super Goku. On the page history of the first, there is nothing to retain, as the content that was moved as Great Jedi Purge#List of survivors in 2009 was unsourced, and was reverted within 30 minutes by EEMIV with comment rm good-faith addition - -this is uncited, and lists of survivors/deaths have been points of dispute on this page. with refs, this (still-trivia) might be okay to include. The merge of Great Jedi Purge to Clone Wars (Star Wars) by TenTonParasol in 2016 is not relevant to this RfD, however a new RfD may be started for that redirect.

  • Delete. I don't see any value in preserving the history, as it is a simple list of names (meaning there is no creative work here) and you can easily find other copies of this list via a Google search. If we want to have a conversation about whether this content belongs somewhere, that's fine, but we don't need the page history to do that, and restoring this to a list just to have it deleted at AfD (as it inevitably would be) is pointless. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 16:09, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Twittergate

[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. This is without prejudice against recreating as a disambiguation page, or better yet, as a redirect to a Twitter controversies (or similar) article or list. There was plenty of support for doing something with the redirect, but not much clarity of what specifically to do with it. With no support of the status quo, I'm deleting it to offer a blank canvas should someone want to assume that mantle. However, if one wants to write a disambiguation, note that per WP:DABMENTION it would be best to first add a sourced mention to the article which will show attestation of the term. -- Tavix (talk) 18:48, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Recently been used to refer to Twitter Files Investigation (which is currently up for deletion, but the topic is covered elsewhere on Wikipedia) ([1]). So I can imagine users searching for the term for that topic. Perhaps at least a hatnote if not a dab page? - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 23:52, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is far more important because it's a detailed case of a conspiracy-like outcome from a non-conspiracy juxtaposition of events.
"#twittergate" very clearly shows how the statistical leaning of tech workers and age groups towards one or the other political party can lead to real-world impacts like moderation imbalance that snowball into $44Bn philanthropic grand gestures. Unfairness accusations like this come up all the time on all social media platforms and very few of these accusations have this level of investigation (or impact) to shine light on what is happening. Losing this from wikipedia would be beyond merely tragic.
Objectively, tech workers are pro-liberal and High-earning positions like executives are pro-GOP due to economic special interest. (One quick-glance visualized data set but I could, of course, flood you with research supporting this key statement: http://verdantlabs.com/politics_of_professions/ ).
I think this page needs to be kept and heavily edited and expanded because the IQ/Education impact in employment on politics is historically impactful and culturally highly relevant. If I felt I was worthy of the task, I'd take it on myself. Unfortunately I do data science, not writing so I'd be starting from no experience. Skyleach (talk) 23:35, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No reference in target article and a Google search didn't turn this up as an alternative name. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)Talk to Me! 20:33, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suzmites is noted as a junior synonym of Onegia in The list of Ediacaran genera. Onegia is a synonym of Pteridinium, so if I were to redirect it to Suzmites it would have a double redirect. Rugoconites Tenuirugosus (talk) 17:58, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Rugoconites Tenuirugosus It would help considerably if you could cite some reliable external sources which support your assertion. The Wikipedia page you named does not exist either. I would expect any page which is the subject of a WP:REDIRECT to mention any synonym and to cite a good, up-to-date source to substantiate that synonymy. None of us are mind-readers, nor experts in Ediacaran synonymy. Nick Moyes (talk) 23:38, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
List of Ediacaran genera is what I wanted to say. Rugoconites Tenuirugosus (talk) 16:52, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Solangi

[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. Just about everyone in this discussion has proposed an entirely different solution (take to AfD, retarget to Solanki, retarget to Solange (disambiguation), anthroponymize, and delete). Legoktm (talk) 05:47, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I cleared out an article here that was a duplicate of Solanki (clan), but I am not sure is this should instead redirect to the surname Solanki. There are notable people with the name, but they are currently not listed at that SIA. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:46, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This RfD is also linked to the outcome of Talk:Solanki#Requested move 17 December 2022. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 18:52, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Legoktm: Retarget to Solanki or disambiguate, depending on the outcome of the RM. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:24, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Note that the RM has been closed and the following changes have happened. The "Solanki" mentioned elsewhere at this RfD is now Solanki (name) and the RM discussion link is now Talk:Solanki (name)#Requested move 17 December 2022. What we now have at Solanki is a dab created today by ModernDayTrilobite. No change in my vote though. Jay 💬 02:49, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • If Solangi is a historical name for Solanki, then this should be mentioned at some article. The pre-BLAR content says they are Muslim, whereas the current target suggests they are Hindus. Solanki has no mention of a name as Solangi, so that would be an incorrect target. External searches come up with "Solangi are not Solanki" suggesting this is controversial, probably because of caste or religion representations. Restore and discuss at AfD if there is no clarity.

  • Anthroponymize (convert to WP:ANTHRO surname page) if there are notable people with this exact surname, otherwise keep/retarget to Solanki (clan) as an {{R with history}}. Note that the only source referenced in the former Solangi article is titled "Solanki" and only uses that spelling, and is also a WordPress blog. I don't support treating this as a misspelling of "Solange" - E and I are very far apart on a QWERTY keyboard, and there is already an attestation that this is a valid (if possibly controversial) alternate spelling to "Solanki".

  • Delete, since this is evidently ambiguous, and there are 66 mentions of one sort or another that Search would find. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 11:01, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Gear stick#Gear knobs and switches. This solution has become viable after the last relist, and is evidently uncontested. (non-admin closure) –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 08:28, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The section this targets was removed, and this is no-longer discussed anywhere in the article or anywhere else I could find except for on the disambiguation page Four on the floor. I think this should be deleted unless mention can be re-added (or if there's a better target I missed). A7V2 (talk) 07:30, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

BLAR'd article. The contents aren't merged into the main article (and don't fit within Wikipedia in general), and the target page doesn't have anything that may fall under it. Delete unless there's a better target. Randi Moth (talk) 09:27, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete I can attest to this nickname in third-party sources, such as [4], but it is not currently in the article. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 11:22, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep given it looks an unambiguous term. In my opinion, monikers like such don't need to be mentioned in the article to be helpful – rather, the very fact of the target normally gives the reader the information they're after. J947 † edits 20:41, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural note: nominator has withdrawn, but the discussion continues as a delete stands. J947 † edits 09:21, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment -- Did this exist as anything else besides a redirect? (I guess I could look through the history for the answer to that.) Personally, I don't mind it being mentioned briefly as long as there's a source for it, but what would be the criteria? Does it involve the female zoo workers (wow, she's a lot hotter since she started wearing more/less makeup), the make zoo workers (that guy cleaning up the poop is such a bo-hunk. He should be a male stripper by night), or the animals themselves (man, there's nothing stopping the breeding program of all the animals at the Cincy Zoo. At this rate we'll have fewer endangered species)? Just who and what decided that the Cincinnati Zoo is the "sexiest?" ---------User:DanTD (talk) 16:14, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It's attested in the link provided by LaundryPizza03 that this moniker is due to the high birth rate of animals at the zoo. I just tracked down a more detailed source goes into how it got that name [5]. signed, Rosguill talk 22:56, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
