Is this ambiguous or should it be retargeted to List of Pokémon? Web-julio (talk) 23:34, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. While title-wise it's not exactly correct, the end result is pretty harmless; the page Lists about Pokémon starts with a link to the proposed target (List of Pokémon, before listing off quite a few methods of drilling down to more specific Pokémon (i.e. lists by generation), et cetera.

Comment. the Lists about Pokémon is a recreation with other additions, the old page didn't include non-species Pokémon lists. Guessitsavis restored the redirect and I restored the list back and moved to make it less ambiguous. Whether the redirect should be restored or not would be a discussion for AfD, right? Or a merge discussion. Web-julio (talk) 23:58, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Joker persona

The result of the discussion was delete. ✗plicit 23:41, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this is not a parenthetical disambiguator. The target is incorrect. There are multiple articles on personae named Joker listed at Joker (disambiguation), where the normal course would be to have "Joker persona" in a sentence not refer to the "Persona" videogame series. Instead it would say refer to the alternate persona of the character Jack Napier or Arthur Fleck; even "joker persona" is also covered under this redirect, and that could easily refer to the common meaning of joker, a jester, a practical joker. -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 21:54, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Retarget - The only google search results relating this redirect to the subject indicate that it was rumored this was an untitled book rumored to be about Swift, later revealed to be about BTS.

The result of the discussion was retarget to 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. asilvering (talk) 22:00, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence that this conflict is known as the "Third Lebanon war", and it isn't even mentioned at target either. CycloneYoris talk! 22:13, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep plenty of sources are referring to this as the Third Lebanon War so I'd imagine its a reasonably common search term, besides there is not exactly any other war that could be considered a third lebanon war so anyone searching that is looking for what we redirect them to. Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 13:08, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete A lot of places say invasion and we don't have an official name for it. Don't want people to mix it up with other events because we gave it a name ourselves, that's not the role of Wikipedia. Maybe at some point in the future there will be a name used across the board, but it's not like we have a crystal ball to see that future. I propose that until then we just use the same description in the majority of outlets instead of selective snippets that could be seen as biased. Similar logic was used when discussing "War in Afghanistan" being proposed as 'Afghanistan War' aswell as being used against proposals for the "Covid Recession" being called a bunch of other names and there are more examples in naming of other current events but I dont want to get too far off topic. My point is that right now it's far too early to think about this kind of move and/or redirect. Dasein (talk) 23:16, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    This discussion is not about what the name of the article is or should be, it's solely about whether "Third Lebanon War" is a useful search term for anything, and if so what it is a useful search term for. Thryduulf (talk) 00:11, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It's about redirects, redirects using alternate names. I mean anybody can search for anything using any term or description. The important part is whether or not it's reasonable. I'm making the case that this isn't a relevant term to use for redirects atm. A few niche news articles alongside the rest (which describe it very differently) doesn't seem like it's enough. Besides shouldn't a war have a separate page to this rather than be a redirect? Dasein (talk) 22:01, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    So yes, I stand by my point even if wording could've been handled better. I feel the same reasoning would apply here. If it was a useful search term then it'd be so for anything that follows the invasion, right? Where relations/wider conflict is one thing, current invasion would be an event in said wider conflict, and any subsequent war (not that we have crystal balls) would be another thing with its own page and more apt for having a redirect like this (if it's a commonly used/reasonably assumed search term at the time anyway) I refer back to what I said about the sources used to initially justify it also being an issue which is why I don't think it's a good fit at all right now. Hence my stance currently being Delete. Dasein (talk) 22:11, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, reliable sources have described the conflict as such. Senior Captain Thrawn (talk) 16:54, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, but lean retarget to 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Otherwise a reasonable search term. estar8806 (talk) ★ 20:57, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of any of these titles at the target. Note that I tested the waters with a nomination of a single redirect to this target, found here, in early September. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:51, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I believe if someone searches something that there should be relevant information at the target. In these cases, there is not, as such, I believe they're better left as red links to encourage creation. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:30, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Since the list of publications was deleted, there would be no search results. Not even a red link. Is there a policy or guideline that requires the title be discussed in the target article? I suspect this category of books may be targeted for deletion as part of the ideological bias on Wikipedia. I'm open to deleting the redirects provided a list of the publications exists so that users at least get a result when searching.GobsPint (talk) 04:22, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @GobsPint: It's mostly about common sense. If there's nothing at the target about the redirect (the books), then it's somewhat misleading to somebody who is searching for them and hoping to find relevant information. To be clear, are you implying that I personally have some type of bias in this case? If you'd like to know more about how I came upon these redirects, it's based on my regular WP:NPP work, which is largely centered on redirects. Based on some quarry queries that I run, you had the highest number of unreviewed redirects and the target (Regnery Publishing) had the most unreviewed redirects by target in the queue. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:09, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, not mentioned at the target. I don't think we want to start redirecting non-notable books to the articles about their publishers without a good reason – there are a lot of non-notable books out there. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:34, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Not mentioned (and not an alternative name for the target article's subject) = not helpful. Steel1943 (talk) 00:48, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete the Donald the Caveman ones (Donald Drains the Swamp, Donald Builds the Wall, and Donald and the Fake News), which have been getting a surprisingly large number of pageviews in their short time of existence even if they're no longer mentioned at the target (but regardless they would still potentially mislead readers). Delete the rest, however—not only are they not mentioned, they also haven't been getting a very large number of pageviews since they were created. We don't want to mislead readers into thinking there's info about these books on the site when there isn't, and it's a huge amount of clutter to create tons of redirects from non-notable book titles. I second Mx. Granger's argument above mine. Regards, SONIC678 06:02, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all, especially the ones getting more pageviews as if people are searching for them they are more likely to be notable, so WP:REDYES or WP:RFD#D10 may apply in addition to the reasons given above. A7V2 (talk) 04:07, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's perfectly reasonable to have a redirect for ß (German Eszett) to β (Greek beta), which we have with ß-carotene (not part of this nomination), but that incorrect letter combined with these other misspellings are highly implausible. Delete all. Mdewman6 (talk) 02:54, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I disagree on that idea. It's like "Pokemon"-- while Pokémon is clearly the correct spelling, plenty of English-speakers on the Internet will consistently spell it "Pokemon" due to not having easy access to the é character. (If I'm talking about ポケモン using Windows 10, spelling it with an e is one keystroke, spelling it with a é requires a two-key stroke to pull up a menu that I then need to scroll through to find the character. I ain't doin' that shit every single time I want to talk about Pokemon.)
Similarly, the people using the eszett character in place of the beta character likely have easier access to the eszett than the beta, presumably due to having a German keyboard. Such a replacement is not a mistake; it is a fully intentional replacement meant to save time typing the word. The same could easily be said for omitting the hyphen (as in ß carotene)-- do you really think a layman would think that the hyphen would be necessary to reach the intended page?
Stacking these intentional spelling replacements made to make typing easier, with misspellings, is, in some ways, more plausible than having the misspelling be on the original, as with β-carotin-- after all, to get the original beta character, you're probably copying the text from somewhere else, not typing it yourself. (Although I will point out that someone using a Greek keyboard would have easy access to β.) 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 06:03, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Lunamann above, who makes a very convincing argument. The English wikipedia is not only for people using American QWERTY keyboards. Fieari (talk) 07:43, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Lunamann, noting that linux users with English keyboards also have easier access to ß than β as the former is part of the default compose key sequence (compose+s+s) whereas the latter requires you to configure a "dead greek" compose key (something I've literally just learned about researching this) or add custom sequences (easy to do when you know how, but most people never have a need to add sequences so have no reason to learn; the only ones I can remember adding in over two decades of using linux are ↓ and ↑).

The result of the discussion was delete. Also turning KGVC to a redirect to KGVC-LP. Jay 💬 09:46, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at target, highly implausible search term given parenthetical disambiguation. AusLondonder (talk) 21:27, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment KGVC appears to be another station owned by Radio Free Palmer. It's even mentioned on their website. The FCC site (link 1) states that the radio station is currently silent, and List of radio stations in Alaska lists it as "defunct." I'm torn between deleting to create an article or redlink or simply adding a mention. There's also KGVC-LP, which I guess could theoretically be an alternate target. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 21:57, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • (edit conflict) Comment the disambiguator is highly plausible for sequences of four letters starting with W or K as many articles about US radio stations are titled this way. As for this series of letters, it's complicated: This was previously the call sign of a radio station in Alaska, that is now defunct (according to KGVC and List of radio stations in Alaska). KVRF (AKA Big Cabbage Radio) was the parent of and/or is the successor to that station and/or now uses that call sign (different hits on google). Complicating matters is that KGVC-LP was also an FM radio station. Ideally I think this would redirect to the KGVC dab page as a {{R from incomplete disambiguation}} but unless content is added about the former station in Alaska that is just a single-entry dab page, with no other notable uses found by google (it's not an airport, the post-nominals are actually two separate ones: Knight Companion of the Order of the Garter (KG) and Victoria Cross (VC)). While the low-power (LP) station is the only one we have content about, it's the one with the lowest claim to primary topic status based on Google hits. Confusing me even further for a while was Google including hits for KVGC, a radio station in California, in all my search terms. I'll drop a note about this discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Radio Stations. Thryduulf (talk) 22:17, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • When the Alaska station FID 198603 existed, it nominally was the primary topic, though it never merited an independent article and would have been a redirect to KVRF. The station operated for less than seven years on this license and was functionally replaced by a new facility, KVRK FID 765583 , though Radio Free Palmer at one point intended to move KGVC out to complement its coverage area. (KGVC was shuttered because its tower site was reused for KVRK.) I recommend deleting this redirect, redirecting KGVC to KGVC-LP, and adding a hatnote: "KGVC redirects here. For 91.5 MHz in Glacier View, Alaska (2015–2022), see KVRF." (That article needs adjusting to even mention KVRK.) I also recommend redirecting KVRK to KVRF and instituting this hatnote there: "KVRK redirects here. For 89.7 MHz in Sanger, Texas (2004–2015), see KAWA (FM)." We need in this field to make more use of hatnotes to substitute TWODABS that nobody truly needs. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 02:15, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Though this redirect is mentioned in the target article, I believe this redirect would be better targeting a non-fictional target: retarget to North Takoma station or weak retarget to North Tacoma, Tacoma, Washington. Otherwise, disambiguation may be necessary. Steel1943 (talk) 21:25, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguate as no primary topic – North Takoma station is an acceptable partial title match, and I don't think a briefly-mentioned fictional place is likely to be primary over a real station with its own article. jlwoodwa (talk) 04:28, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This redirect was created by moving Methodist High School, Kanpur away from the title, but I really don't think the primary topic of "Methodist High School" is this one particular Methodist high school. (One could argue that it's WP:DIFFCAPS, but I'm not sure.) The best target I can find for the general concept of Methodist high schools is Christian school § Methodist, but it's a very short section that doesn't mention high schools in particular. jlwoodwa (talk) 00:49, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Convert to DAB page - looks like there's a lot of schools that have similar names with articles, and the Kanpur school is not the primary topic here. BugGhost🦗👻 13:51, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

John Alston

The result of the discussion was restore and send to AfD as a disputed BLAR. (non-admin closure) C F A 💬 23:37, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The target article mentions John Alston a single time, with no further information on Alston as a subject beyond his being an early colonist of Victoria. John Alston could conceivably be turned into its own page, or if not sufficiently notable, given a full section on tactile alphabet. That section could make mention of his being an early Victorian colonist. I propose deletion of the redirect altogether. While retargeting it to tactile alphabet would be better than the current target (especially if given his own section), as is, it wouldn't necessarily be better than the current redirect. Notably, of a random sampling of the colonists listed on The Explorers and Early Colonists of Victoria, I didn't find others that redirected there (or at all); there's no indication why John Alston has special treatment here. In favour of changing the redirect: Alston is one of 713 colonists in the photograph, whereas he is one of 9 names mentioned in the list of tactile alphabets based on roman letters. At least in terms of proportion, he seems more notable as a tactile alphabet inventor than as an early colonist of Victoria. Sarayourfriend (talk) 00:47, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After reading other discussions about redirects (my first time delving into this part of Wikipedia), I think what I've touched on above is WP:XY and it's best to just delete the redirect. Whether Alston is more notable as a tactile alphabet creator or for his presence in the Early Colonists of Victoria photograph is ambiguous, retargeting the redirect is meaningless if neither page goes into more than a single detail about him regardless. Sarayourfriend (talk) 01:08, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • This was a stub for less than an hour before being BLARed by a user other than the creator to the target on the basis of WP:1E. It might be worth restoring that article without prejudice to AfD given that the nominator has raised the possibility of this person being notable. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 14:40, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
