Redirects for discussion (RfD) is the place where potentially problematic redirects are discussed. Items usually stay listed for a week or so, after which they are deleted, kept, or retargeted.

• If you want to replace an unprotected redirect with an article, do not list it here. Turning redirects into articles is wholly encouraged. Be bold!
• If you want to move a page but a redirect is in the way, do not list it here. For non-controversial cases, place a technical request; if a discussion is required, then start a requested move.
• If you think a redirect points to the wrong target article, this is a good place to discuss the proper target.
• Redirects should not be deleted just because they have no incoming links. Please do not use this as the only reason to delete a redirect. However, redirects that do have incoming links are sometimes deleted, so that is not a sufficient condition for keeping. (See § When to delete a redirect for more information.)

Please do not unilaterally rename or change the target of a redirect while it is under discussion. This adds unnecessary complication to the discussion for participants and closers.

Before listing a redirect for discussion

Please be aware of these general policies, which apply here as elsewhere:

• Wikipedia:Redirect – what redirects are, why they exist, and how they are used.
• Wikipedia:Speedy deletion – which pages can be deleted without discussion; in particular the "General" and "Redirects" sections.
• Wikipedia:Deletion policy – how we delete things by consensus.
• Wikipedia:Guide to deletion – guidelines on discussion format and shorthand.

The guiding principles of RfD

• The purpose of a good redirect is to eliminate the possibility that readers will find themselves staring blankly at "Search results 1–10 out of 378" instead of the article they were looking for. If someone could plausibly enter the redirect's name when searching for the target article, it's a good redirect.
• Redirects are cheap. They take up little storage space and use very little bandwidth. It doesn't really hurt things if there are a few of them scattered around. On the flip side, deleting redirects is also cheap because recording the deletion takes up little storage space and uses very little bandwidth. There is no harm in deleting problematic redirects.
• If a good-faith RfD nomination proposes to delete a redirect and has no discussion after at least 7 days, the default result is delete.
• Redirects nominated in contravention of Wikipedia:Redirect will be speedily kept.
• RfD can also serve as a central discussion forum for debates about which page a redirect should target. In cases where retargeting the redirect could be considered controversial, it is advisable to leave a notice on the talk page of the redirect's current target page or the proposed target page to refer readers to the redirect's nomination to allow input and help form consensus for the redirect's target.
• Requests for deletion of redirects from one page's talk page to another's do not need to be listed here. Anyone can remove the redirect by blanking the page. The G6 criterion for speedy deletion may be appropriate.
• In discussions, always ask yourself whether or not a redirect would be helpful to the reader.

When to delete a redirect

Further information: Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Common outcomes and Wikipedia:Moving a page § Moving over a redirect

The major reasons why deletion of redirects is harmful are:

• a redirect may contain non-trivial edit history;
• if a redirect is reasonably old (or is the result of moving a page that has been there for quite some time), then it is possible that its deletion will break incoming links (such as links coming from older revisions of Wikipedia pages, from edit summaries, from other Wikimedia projects or from elsewhere on the internet, do not show up in "What links here").

Therefore consider the deletion only of either harmful redirects or of recent ones.

Reasons for deleting

See also: Wikipedia:Speedy deletion § Redirects

You might want to delete a redirect if one or more of the following conditions is met:

1. The redirect page makes it unreasonably difficult for users to locate similarly named articles via the search engine. For example, if the user searches for "New Articles", and is redirected to a disambiguation page for "Articles" (itself a redirect to "Article"), it would take much longer to get to the newly added articles on Wikipedia.
2. The redirect might cause confusion. For example, if "Adam B. Smith" was redirected to "Andrew B. Smith", because Andrew was accidentally called Adam in one source, this could cause confusion with the article on Adam Smith, so the redirect should be deleted.
3. The redirect is offensive or abusive, such as redirecting "Joe Bloggs is a Loser" to "Joe Bloggs" (unless "Joe Bloggs is a Loser" is legitimately discussed in the article), or "Joe Bloggs" to "Loser". (Speedy deletion criterion G10 and G3 may apply.) See also § Neutrality of redirects.
4. The redirect constitutes self-promotion or spam. (Speedy deletion criterion G11 may apply.)
5. The redirect makes no sense, such as redirecting "Apple" to "Banana". (Speedy deletion criterion G1 may apply.)
6. It is a cross-namespace redirect out of article space, such as one pointing into the User or Wikipedia namespace. The major exception to this rule are the pseudo-namespace shortcut redirects, which technically are in the main article space. Some long-standing cross-namespace redirects are also kept because of their long-standing history and potential usefulness. "MOS:" redirects, for example, were an exception to this rule until they became their own namespace in 2024. (Note also the existence of namespace aliases such as WP:. Speedy deletion criterion R2 may apply if the target namespace is something other than Category:, Template:, Wikipedia:, Help:, or Portal:.)
7. If the redirect is broken, meaning it redirects to an article that does not exist, it can be immediately deleted under speedy deletion criterion G8. You should check that there is not an alternative place it could be appropriately redirected to first and that it has not become broken through vandalism.
8. If the redirect is a novel or very obscure synonym for an article name that is not mentioned in the target, it is unlikely to be useful. In particular, redirects in a language other than English to a page whose subject is unrelated to that language (or a culture that speaks that language) should generally not be created. (Implausible typos or misnomers are candidates for speedy deletion criterion R3, if recently created.) The message template {{subst:not mentioned}} may be useful.
9. If the target article needs to be moved to the redirect title, but the redirect has been edited before and has a history of its own, then the title needs to be freed up to make way for the move. If the move is uncontroversial, tag the redirect for G6 speedy deletion, or alternatively (with the suppressredirect user right; available to page movers and admins), perform a round-robin move. If not, take the article to Requested moves.
10. If the redirect could plausibly be expanded into an article, and the target article contains virtually no information on the subject.
11. If the redirect ends in "(disambiguation)" but does not target a disambiguation page or a page performing a disambiguation-like function (such as a set index of articles). Speedy deletion criterion G14 may apply.

Reasons for not deleting

However, avoid deleting such redirects if:

1. They have a potentially useful page history, or an edit history that should be kept to comply with the licensing requirements for a copy or merge (see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and Wikipedia:Merge and delete). On the other hand, if the redirect was created by renaming a page with that name, and the page history just mentions the renaming, and for one of the reasons above you want to delete the page, copy the page history to the Talk page of the article it redirects to. The act of renaming is useful page history, and even more so if there has been discussion on the page name.
2. They would aid accidental linking and make the creation of duplicate articles less likely, whether by redirecting a plural to a singular, by redirecting a frequent misspelling to a correct spelling, by redirecting a misnomer to a correct term, by redirecting to a synonym, etc. In other words, redirects with no incoming links are not candidates for deletion on those grounds because they are of benefit to the browsing user. Some extra vigilance by editors will be required to minimize the occurrence of those frequent misspellings in article text because the linkified misspellings will not appear as broken links; consider tagging the redirect with the {{R from misspelling}} template to assist editors in monitoring these misspellings.
3. They aid searches on certain terms. For example, users who might see the "Keystone State" mentioned somewhere but do not know what that refers to will be able to find out at the Pennsylvania (target) article.
4. Deleting redirects runs the risk of breaking incoming or internal links. For example, redirects resulting from page moves should not normally be deleted without good reason. Links that have existed for a significant length of time, including CamelCase links (e.g. WolVes) and old subpage links, should be retained in case there are any existing links on external pages pointing to them. Please tag these with {{R from old history}}. See also Wikipedia:Link rot § Link rot on non-Wikimedia sites.
5. Someone finds them useful. Hint: If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do. You might not find it useful—this is not because the other person is being untruthful, but because you browse Wikipedia in different ways. Evidence of usage can be gauged by using the wikishark or pageviews tool on the redirect to see the number of views it gets.
6. The redirect is to a closely related word form, such as a plural form to a singular form.

Neutrality of redirects

Just as article titles using non-neutral language are permitted in some circumstances, so are such redirects. Because redirects are less visible to readers, more latitude is allowed in their names, therefore perceived lack of neutrality in redirect names is not a sufficient reason for their deletion. In most cases, non-neutral but verifiable redirects should point to neutrally titled articles about the subject of the term. Non-neutral redirects may be tagged with {{R from non-neutral name}}.

Non-neutral redirects are commonly created for three reasons:

1. Articles that are created using non-neutral titles are routinely moved to a new neutral title, which leaves behind the old non-neutral title as a working redirect (e.g. ClimategateClimategate → Climatic Research Unit email controversy).
2. Articles created as POV forks may be deleted and replaced by a redirect pointing towards the article from which the fork originated (e.g. Barack Obama Muslim rumorBarack Obama Muslim rumor → deleted and now redirected to Barack Obama religion conspiracy theories).
3. The subject matter of articles may be represented by some sources outside Wikipedia in non-neutral terms. Such terms are generally avoided in Wikipedia article titles, per the words to avoid guidelines and the general neutral point of view policy. For instance the non-neutral expression "AttorneygateAttorneygate" is used to redirect to the neutrally titled 2006 dismissal of U.S. attorneys. The article in question has never used that title, but the redirect was created to provide an alternative means of reaching it because a number of press reports use the term.

The exceptions to this rule are redirects that are not established terms and are unlikely to be useful, and therefore may be nominated for deletion, perhaps under deletion reason #3. However, if a redirect represents an established term that is used in multiple mainstream reliable sources, it should be kept even if non-neutral, as it will facilitate searches on such terms. Please keep in mind that RfD is not the place to resolve most editorial disputes.

Closing notes

Details at Administrator instructions for RfD

Nominations should remain open, per policy, about a week before they are closed, unless they meet the general criteria for speedy deletion, the criteria for speedy deletion of a redirect, or are not valid redirect discussion requests (e.g. are actually move requests).

How to list a redirect for discussion

STEP I.	Tag the redirect(s).   Enter {{subst:rfd|content= at the very beginning of the redirect page you are listing for discussion and enter }} at the very end of the page. Please include in the edit summary the phrase: Nominated for RfD: see [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion]]. Please do not mark the edit as minor (m). Save the page ("Publish changes"). If you are unable to edit the redirect page because of protection, this step can be omitted, and after step 2 is completed, a request to add the RFD template can be put on the redirect's talk page. If the redirect you are nominating is in template namespace, consider adding |showontransclusion=1 to the RfD tag so that people using the template redirect are aware of the nomination. If it is an inline template, use |showontransclusion=tiny instead. If you are nominating multiple redirects as a group, repeat all the above steps for each redirect being nominated and specify on {{rfd}} the nomination's group heading from Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion
STEP II.	List the entry on RfD.  Click here to edit the section of RfD for today's entries. Enter this text below the date heading: {{subst:Rfd2|redirect=RedirectName|target=TargetArticle|text=The action you would like to occur (deletion, re-targeting, etc.) and the rationale for that action.}} ~~~~ For this template: Put the redirect's name in place of RedirectName, put the target article's name in place of TargetArticle, and include a reason after text=. Note that, for this step, the "target article" is the current target of the redirect (if you have a suggestion for a better target, include this in the text that you insert after text=). Please use an edit summary such as: Nominating [[RedirectName]] (replacing RedirectName with the name of the redirect you are nominating). To list multiple related redirects for discussion, use the following syntax. Repeat line 2 for N number of redirects: {{subst:Rfd2|redirect=RedirectName1|target=TargetArticle1}} {{subst:Rfd2|multi=yes|redirect=RedirectName2|target=TargetArticle2}} {{subst:Rfd2|multi=yes|redirect=RedirectNameN|target=TargetArticleN|text=The actions you would like to occur (deletion, re-targeting, etc.) and the rationale for those actions.}} ~~~~ If the redirect has had previous RfDs, you can add {{Oldrfdlist|previous RfD without brackets|result of previous RfD}} directly after the rfd2 template. If appropriate, inform members of the most relevant WikiProjects through one or more "deletion sorting lists". Then add a {{subst:delsort|<topic>|<signature>}} template to the nomination, to insert a note that this has been done.
STEP III.	Notify users.   It is generally considered good practice to notify the creator and main contributors of the redirect(s) that you nominate. To find the main contributors, look in the page history of the respective redirect(s). For convenience, the template {{subst:Rfd notice|RedirectName}} ~~~~ may be placed on the creator/main contributors' user talk page to provide notice of the discussion. Please replace RedirectName with the name of the respective creator/main contributors' redirect and use an edit summary such as: Notice of redirect discussion at [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion]]. Notices about the RfD discussion may also be left on relevant talk pages.

• Please consider using What links here to locate other redirects that may be related to the one you are nominating. After going to the redirect target page and selecting "What links here" in the toolbox on the left side of your computer screen, select both "Hide transclusions" and "Hide links" filters to display the redirects to the redirect target page.

Should they point to the same target? Jay 07:31, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Sync at City status in the United Kingdom. I see no good reason not to sync them. Looking at the "What links here?" pages for both targets, filtered to show redirects, these titles better match the other existing redirects to the "City status" article. I've added a hatnote for readers who may be using the plural to signify that they're looking for a list rather than a topic. (The alternative would require reviewing many other redirects besides the ones nominated here; simpler to just retarget 1 redirect and add a hatnote.) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 07:51, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Queen Mathilde

• Queen Mathilde → Queen Matilda  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Suggest retargeting to Queen Mathilde of Belgium, who is the only person on the dab page to have the given name Mathilde rather than Matilda (or Maud). Rosbif73 (talk) 06:43, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep. Historically, the spellings of names were more variable and could often be inconsistent. For example, some historical sources call King Henry VIII "Harry" not "Henry". In this case, you can find some of the sources referenced for Matilda of Ringelheim using the name "Mathilde". Matilda of Flanders explicitly states in the lead that in French and Dutch her name is "Mathilde". I've not checked every person on that disambiguation page, but I assume there are more examples like this. Just because their articles on Wikipedia use the spelling "Matilda" does not mean that the articles, or the sources they cite, or historical sources in general do so. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 06:59, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Internet industry

• Internet industry → Online service provider  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This term seems a lot more general, but I'm not sure what the correct target for this would be. Note that Internet industry jargon is an article, though not a particularly sourced one. 1234qwer1234qwer4 16:58, 19 September 2026 (UTC)

• Comment: There doesn't seem to be very many good targets for this. At best, there is History of the Internet and List of largest Internet companies, but those alone may not fully cover it. I'm inclined to say WP:RETURNTORED could potentially be valid here; this does seem like something that could be turned into a separate article, provided that there are enough reliable sources to cover the topic. LazyLune (talk • edits) 08:44, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

TSAR

• TSAR → SAR supergroup  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
• TSAR supergroup → Diaphoretickes  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

These redirects should point to the same target. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 11:13, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

• Comment - Retargeting to SAR supergroup is my first instinct, but I notice this will create circular redirects on the SAR supergroup page. Someone with knowledge of the topic should confirm the intended destination of those [[TSAR supergroup|TSAR]] links.

Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 11:59, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

I had the same thoughts. Neither article contains a lot of substantive coverage of TSAR but SAR supergroup is the logical place where this might be expanded. The brief mention at Diaphoretickes § Evolution just says that Telonemia [...] is sometimes resolved as the sister clade of the SAR supergroup, forming the hypothesized TSAR clade. That makes Diaphoretickes an improper target to discuss TSAR on the whole. The circular link at SAR supergroup can either be removed or it can be left as an acceptable circular redirect if editors think this has standalone article potential. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 14:07, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

Support retargeting TSAR to Diaphoretickes. TSAR includes groups that SAR does not, and is fully included in Diaphoretickes, the nearest parent clade. Furthermore, its validity is still unknown, as the 'T' often branches with Haptista instead of SAR. The Evolution section at Diaphoretickes covers this information. For these reasons, TSAR redirecting to Diaphoretickes is preferable, and is a surefire way to avoid misleading readers into thinking SAR and TSAR are equivalent. — Snoteleks (talk) 14:10, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

Ah, I see. I think I initially misread Diaphoretickes, and did not bother to look at the taxobox. I do think the information could be presented more clearly in the article. I've followed the TSAR discussion from afar and my (limited!) understanding is that it is disputed but still felt to be relevant enough to cover somewhere. This is a bit beyond the scope of RFD but I do think the coverage could be improved while still kept fairly succinct. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 14:15, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

@Myceteae Agreed that coverage should be improved. I have added some more bits of info at Telonemid and will try to add something at Diaphoretickes itself. — Snoteleks (talk) 14:37, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

Support. Jako96 (talk) 22:23, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

• Target both to SAR supergroup per my reply above. I've notified WP:PROTISTA, WP:ALGAE, WP:PLANTS, and WP:TOL to get input from subject-matter experts and would be open to amending my !vote if there are factors I've not considered. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 14:10, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

I agree with Snotelek that targeting the least inclusive group that contains TSAR is usually the best solution. But TSAR is sort of SAR sensu lato so might be a more natural place to discuss it. It's mentioned in the lede and the article could be reorganised to have a short section on TSAR that could be linked in the redirect. Likewise, Diaphoretickes could have a sections on TSAR/SAR and other component supergroups, but the article isn't organised that way. TSAR is mentioned but seems quite dismissive of the hypothesis. At the moment SAR seems a better target because the issue is addressed in the one paragraph lede.  —  Jts1882 | talk  14:39, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

This was part of the thinking that originally led me favor SAR supergroup. Either target is justifiable and the coverage could be improved in either location to better support these redirects. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 16:08, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

Landphoon

• Landphoon → Derecho  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No mention is made. I propose either deletion, article creation, or editing of the current target to at least mention the term. ZFT (talk) 04:19, 2 September 2026 (UTC)

• There is a Wiktionary definition at wikt:landphoon. I found some Australian news sources using this term, usually putting it in quotation marks: The New Daily article Courier Mail article ABC News article. Fork99 (talk) 10:57, 3 September 2026 (UTC)

• It's not clear that these terms are synonymous. The links found by Fork99 do not seem to use the word "derecho", so they don't demonstrate synonymy. Wiktionary also doesn't mention that landphoons are synonyms with derechos, and defines them as tropical depressions over land whose satellite signature resembles that of a typhoon, however derecho doesn't mention anything about them having typhoon-like radar signatures. It does mention that One derecho developed a radar signature resembling that of a cyclone..., but "one" implies this is unusual not definitive of derechos. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 12:32, 9 September 2026 (UTC)
• Note: Landphoon had an article at that title prior to September 2007, but it was deleted at AfD. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 12:44, 9 September 2026 (UTC)

  I've notified Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones of this RfD to hopefully get input from editors better informed about meteorology and tropical cyclones. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 12:41, 9 September 2026 (UTC)

  I WP:BOLDly changed the Wiktionary definition to be more in line with what the current redirect target implies. ZFT (talk) 04:23, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

  @ZFT: I might suggest changing it back or to something else. From the two Australian articles I could read (the second of the three is paywalled), they seem to be referring to tropical systems of one form or another, including a monsoonal low and a system sustained by the brown ocean effect, while the current Wictionary definition is more along the lines of a mesoscale convective vortex. TornadoLGS (talk) 05:12, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

  I restored the old definition while also keeping the new one; how's that? ZFT (talk) 05:16, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

• I see a few routes, but none of them are it remaining as a redirect to derecho. It could be turned into a disambiguation for derecho, brown ocean effect, and other terms including specific "cases". Landphoon could also be simply redirected to brown ocean effect, which seems to be the most common usage of the term based on a Google Search and others' comments in this thread. The redirect could also just be deleted due to how colloquial the term is. ✶Quxyz✶ (talk) 12:20, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

  There are some unreliable references connecting landphoon and derecho that I have found. This Wikipedia article refers to a specific derecho as a landphoon. There are also a couple uses of it on social media to variably refer to BOE or derechoes, depending on the context. ✶Quxyz✶ (talk) 12:28, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

  Could retarget to a visible anchor at the mention in Tornadoes of 2003:

  The derecho itself produced a very intense mesoscale convective vortex, and at times, the entire squall line was wrapped into it, creating a "super-derecho", also known as a landphoon.

  This seems to be the closest thing Wikipedia currently has to an explanation of the term. There's also a mention at International Cloud Experiment but this does not explain what a "landphoon" is beyond describing the one mentioned as "record-breaking tropical typhoon". – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 12:43, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

  I don't understand why you link to WP:BARTENDER, since these suggestions (disambiguate, retarget, delete) are all appropriate for discussing here at RfD rather than at another venue. Disambiguation pages aren't just lists of related topics, they're articles which could share the same title. Even if the brown ocean effect is relevant to landphoons, these terms are definitely not synonymous. Brown ocean effect doesn't mention "landphoon" so would likely be a surprising target. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 12:30, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

• Very weak retarget to Wiktionary. The obvious target is Skeleton (undead) - the word is used in this sense by Shakespeare, Dickens, and Smollett, among others - but we don't mention it on that page. Tevildo (talk) 23:39, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

  I'm not sure Skeleton (undead) would be the most obvious target since the other definition, 'mote, speck', is more common; it's ambiguous and could also probably target Particle (which the disambiguation page at mote links to for this sense of the word). According to my external search results (eg. ) Shakespeare used it in this sense too, and the glossaries in the top results don't even mention the "skeleton" sense. Wiktionary provides Shakespeare quotes for both definitions, suggesting it was ambiguous even then. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 08:11, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

• My guess is that this has come from 1.4.57 of Romeo and Juliet, where the chariot of the fairy Queen Mab is said to be "Drawn with a team of little atomies". As far as I can tell, this passage doesn't imply that "atomy" refers to fairies themselves. The OED lists the following definitions of "atomy": "An atom, a mote", "A diminutive or tiny being; a mite", "A skeleton", "An emaciated or withered living body, a walking skeleton", and "Chiefly in the work of Dickens: a spindly or skeletal thing". The Wiktionary page lists all of these meanings. I don't see a whole lot currently mentioned on Wikipedia that the term could refer to: Mnogotochie (rap group) are apparently the progenitors of an album titled Atomy zsoznaniya, but this merely seems to be because "atomy" is the Russian word for "atoms", and I suspect the mention of an "Energy Atomy School" at List of schools in Iran involves a typo or an error, as I'm unable to find anything about such a school. Other appearances of the word are either using it in one of the senses listed by the OED, or are referring to "atoms" in another language. Given all of this, I think retargeting to the Wiktionary page is a reasonable enough solution. – Michael Aurel (talk) 04:33, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

  Those mentions in the list about Iranian schools intended to mention the Atomic Energy Schools maintained by the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran. The Farsi for "Atomic Energy" is انرژی اتمی enerži atomi, which sounds like "energy atomy". I've amended the list. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 15:23, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

  I think it's worth having eyes on both types, since we don't mention the term on Fairy either. There is a brief entry at List of legendary creatures (A). We could have a separate discussion--my point is just as things stand, the (fae) etc. redirects are also ripe for RfD. --BDD (talk) 17:29, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

• Comment. I just noticed that while most of these have little traffic, atomy has a lot of traffic. The all-time total is >65,000 since 2015. I somehow doubt this due to readers looking for an obscure, very archaic word meaning either skeleton or mote (or, apparently, also fairy according to these redirects). I think there's something we're overlooking here.
  A quick external search for "Atomy" overwhelmingly brings up a South Korean brand/chain called 'Atomy' in English. There seems to be no coverage here on ~enwiki, but it does have an article on ~kowiki: Atomy. I'm still undecided, but my intuition is there's a WP:RETURNTORED situation here. I'm unsure if there are other meanings of the word that we're missing which would explain the high traffic. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 17:12, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

For what it's worth, there is history that could be restored, although it'd need some work. -- Tavix ^(talk) 17:40, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

Not sure how that would help. That article in the history is still about diminutive fairies or fairy-like beings (in Shakespeare), whereas I think the traffic is coming from various sources including possibly for the South Korean multinational company which appears to be a notable gap in coverage. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 18:10, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

Dirty Diaper

• Dirty diaper → Fritillaria camschatcensis  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

These redirects originate from the first revision of Fritillaria camschatcensis by @Noswald, where "dirty diaper" was listed as a common name. @Dysmorodrepanis~enwiki then created the "Dirty Diaper" redirect, and @Plantdrew created "Dirty diaper". This name was removed for being unsourced in 2022. I could not find any evidence that this plant has ever been known by that name, and so the redirects should probably be deleted. It is probably noteworthy that, Fritillaria biflora, also created by Noswald, used the same terminology (1, 2) to describe its supposed common name: It is also sometimes known as Skunk Lily, Dirty Diaper and Outhouse Lily because of the flower's horrible smell. Hopefully this makes sense, and I haven't done anything wrong, as this is my first time listing anything for discussion/deletion. JordyGrey _talk🧸 02:41, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete. Library of Congress seems to be listing it as a common name as of 2009 here, but that post-dates the appearance on Wikipedia. I'm not finding anything I'd consider reliable that pre-dates Wikipedia (but I haven't searched exhaustively). I think "dirty diaper" probably is a not-very-commonly-used common name for some Fritillaria species that didn't originate on Wikipedia, but Fritillaria is not the primary topic of "dirty diaper" and it isn't a particularly useful search term. Plantdrew (talk) 03:20, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Apologies, I also forgot to list Skunk Lily, Skunk lily, Outhouse Lily, and Outhouse lily. I knew I forgot something.

Now that Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 September 4#Varrock has gone through, I would like to nominate these other RuneScape locations for deletion. You may refer to that RfD for more context. The long and short is there used to be a page about RuneScape locations, and now all we have is these redirects as they are not individually notable.

I have omitted Gielinor from this RfD, as that is the world in which the RuneScape games are set, not a city or kingdom (lore-wise, it does not include Zanaris, which is its moon, but this has no bearing on gameplay). It is mentioned at RuneScape, Old School RuneScape, RuneScape: Dragonwilds, Betrayal at Falador, and sorta kinda FunOrb. Suffice to say, that redirect is problematic in its own right, but previous attempts to spin it into its own article have ultimately been unsuccessful. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 10:11, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

These redirects should have been bundled with more care. Though the nomination implies these were all previously redirects to RuneScape locations, this is untrue. Castle Wars was an article about a minigame which was redirected to RuneScape combat so should have been bundled with that. Falador was merged directly to RuneScape#Locations according to an edit summary. though I've not checked whether it was actually merged or simply blanked and redirected. If it was merged WP:ATTREQ would require the redirect to be preserved for attribution. I don't have time to investigate the page histories of every single redirect nominated here, but I'm concerned there are other cases like the ones I've noted here. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 11:41, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Sorry, I did not mean to imply they all redirected to RuneScape locations, just that they are RuneScape locations and the majority of these stemmed from the existence of that page.

While Castle Wars is best known as a minigame, it is also a location. It later redirected to RuneScape#Player_interaction (still does - apologies for missing the anchor when making the RfD), as that is where Castle Wars was mentioned (see Special:Permalink/400431131#Player interaction, random revision from the time that section existed). The minigame certainly has a combat element but is not combat itself.

You're right that WP:ATTREQ could be a headache. It applies even though the current revision doesn't go into locations (well it does mention the Falador Massacre, but the Falador page didn't), right? Falador text was in the main page for ~10 hours indeed (Special:Diff/261069919). I could withdraw that part. The ones with simple histories like Karamja are easier to review. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 12:20, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

@Scyrme: Maybe there's a more reliable way, but I scraped RuneScape's revision history for instances of "merg" (case-insensitive). So there's that Falador edit as seen in my parent reply. Special:Diff/30426061 mentions merging King Black Dragon (relevant to the other AfD), but if you view the respective page's history it never had anything more substantial than a Wikia link, so not a content merge the revision that was merged from has already been deleted. Didn't find anything else. I see we can use Template:R from merge like Falador Massacre does. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 13:09, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

These methods aren't always reliable, especially when dealing with very old articles/revisions. Sometimes redirects from merges were not tagged with {{r from merge}} or the tag was removed because the redirect was later retargeted somewhere else. Editors don't always say in their edit summaries that they are "merging" or have "merged" content from somewhere else. Some editors neglect to say anything because they're not aware that they need to state where content came from, or they may say something like "adding content from [article]" or "incorporated text from [article]".

King Black Dragon was deleted because it was retargeted to RuneScape monsters after the merge to RuneScape. When RuneScape monsters was deleted after an AfD, King Black Dragon was left with no target and deleted, but it should not have been. I assume someone neglected to document the merge to RuneScape, so no-one noticed that it had history that needed to be preserved. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 13:31, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

I wonder if it's still possible to request undeletion after all these years? Might be too late to fix the attribution for the merge from King Black Dragon. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 13:35, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Reading the instructions, it sounds like we should ask User:Ixfd64. I am getting confused and will walk away from this for a little bit. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 14:00, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Yes, WP:ATTREQ applies if any revision of an article includes content which was copied or merged from another article, even if the copied content exists only in old revision. Attribution is required for each and every revision not just the current one.

Thank-you for look further into Falador. Since the content was merged into a previous revision of RuneScape, that redirect has to be kept. The attribution is still necessary to preserve for this revision. If any other redirects here also have content that was merged/copied elsewhere, they'll also need to be kept (unless the article/revision it was merged/copied to is also deleted). – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 13:17, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete all I have significant doubts any info contained within these could be at all pertinent to a modern article on the subject, so I think the worrying about attribution is misplaced. Even if they were merged at some point, the information was likely removed. Wikipedia is not a fan Wiki, so these are all irrelevant. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:06, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  It literally does not matter if the information was later removed in newer revisions. The old revisions are still available for anyone to read via the history page and attribution is still required as long as those revisions are not deleted. As long as the content exists in some form it's a copyright issue per the license under which Wikipedia operates. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:24, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Per WP:MAD, there are alternate ways to preserve attribution if a page would otherwise be deleted, including putting the former page or its history in a subpage of the existing page. I'd support this alternate method. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:34, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  WP:MAD: ... Therefore, this approach is almost never used on Wikipedia at present. This is a rarely used method and it's unclear what the benefit would be compared to just not deleting the small number of relevant redirects and adding {{copied}} or {{merged-to}} to their Talk pages. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:57, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep Wilderness (RuneScape) if RuneScape combat is not deleted, as evidently some content was merged/copied prior to 30 January 2007 and attribution would need to be preserved. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:54, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

The Wilderness is also still discussed at RuneScape § Gameplay so it may be worth keeping anyway. Though discussed only briefly, it's more than a passing mention. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 15:11, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep RuneScape dungeons, which was merged to "RuneScape locations". However the current version of RuneScape locations is a redirect left over from a move. The article it was merged to is now in the history of Gielinor (10 September 2006). Since Gielinor is not being nominated for deletion, RuneScape dungeons must be kept to preserve attribution. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 22:10, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep Al Kharid. which was merged to "RuneScape locations", which was now actually located at Gielinor (29 December 2004). As with RuneScape dungeons, attribution must be preserved as long as Gielinor is not deleted. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 22:22, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete the rest. With the exception of Falador, which has now been withdrawn, it seems the other redirects here, where they previously had content, were blanked and redirected not merged which makes them safe to delete. There's no substantial content about these left, so there's nothing helpful to redirect to. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 22:26, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete any not singled out per Scryme above. For the cases he did single out, which were all merged into pages that are now redirects, I would prefer to handle that by doing a selective delete/undelete to bury the article revisions of the redirects, since we're establishing here they're poorly-sourced fancruft of no value to current Wikipedia. Hence we could safely Delete them too. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 18:44, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

Likewise Delete Wilderness (RuneScape); I don't see enough substance there to really support a redirect. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 18:48, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

@Pppery: selective delete/undelete - Do you mean delete Gielinor and recreate it? I suppose that could work, since the relevant revisions which attribution would be needed for would no longer be publicly available. However, I didn't check whether Gielinor was merged anywhere because it wasn't nominated for deletion.

Looking into it now, it seems Gielinor (formerly "RuneScape locations") was originally blanked and redirected following an AfD which was closed as "delete" but was actually implemented as a blank and redirect to allow content to be merged from previous revisions into other articles. As far as I can those merges did not happen, which would mean it would be safe to delete except in 2024 someone attempted to write a new article at the redirect. That new article was merged into RuneScape (22 May 2024). This means that the proposal to delete the redirect and recreate it without the baggage of its former history would result in the lost of attribution for previous revisions of RuneScape. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:36, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

Yes, that is what I meant. In theory we could delete Gielinor, and then only restore the edits that don't include the re-2008 article while still keeping the 2024 article in the history. That would be a bit of a mess, but I think it would solve the multiple conflicting goals without violating anyone's attribution. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 19:39, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

It does seem like Thief-River-Faller's 2024 article was a complete fresh start that didn't reuse content from the preceding revisions. I can't find any fault with it if there's no technical reason why it can't be done. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:56, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

I can say with 100% confidence that the software will allow an admin to do that. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 19:59, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

Happy to support your suggestion then, and change my position to delete all per Pppery (except maybe the 'The Wilderness' redirects, as there's some info at the target about the topic. but it's not a lot so I don't feel strongly about it). – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:06, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

There is so much messy history from the 2000s that I'd be happy to get rid, if we can do that. If the Gielinor redirect stays, I second the 2024 article can happily live in the history as it's doing no harm. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 16:38, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Even though it won't work here, it's not an entirely bad suggestion. It could work for RuneScape armour (in the other listing), which would become safe to delete if RuneScape combat were deleted then recreated to cut loose its previous baggage. As far as I can tell, RuneScape combat was not merged anywhere. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:42, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep the wilderness redirects as it's discussed. Delete the rest due to the lack of mention, including the ones that Scyrme singled out for attribution reasons because no content remains extant. -- Tavix ^(talk) 15:33, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Nominating redirects to do with RuneScape combat for deletion as discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 September 6#RuneScape skills suggested this is okay. While the page discusses combat, the anchors these redirects use no longer exist and I think changing them to #Gameplay doesn't alleviate the maintenance burden. Many of these redirects have history from people writing about these subjects, which was later merged or removed as not individually notable. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 10:11, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete all We don't have this kind of stuff for literally every video game, so we shouldn't have it for RuneScape. It's redundant, unnecessary, and the search works just as well. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:08, 12 September 2026 (UTC)
• Delete most. A few of these had content, but in most cases it was blanked and redirect not merged so there are no attribution issues to worry about. RuneScape weapons was seemingly merged into RuneScape Items, which has since been deleted so there doesn't appear to be an attribution issue here either.
  Keep/refine RuneScape combat (and Runescape combat) to RuneScape § Gameplay as this topic is still discussed and there's no reason not to assist readers in finding this coverage.
  RuneScape armour was merged into RuneScape combat (13 November 2006) in several successive edits. If this is closed as delete for RuneScape combat, it would be safe to delete RuneScape armour. If it is kept, RuneScape armour must also be kept to preserve attribution, and the merge should be documented at Talk:RuneScape armour. (This makes this a de facto keep RuneScape armour from me, given my view on RuneScape combat.) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:30, 12 September 2026 (UTC)
• Delete all, unless there some attribution issue. Note that RuneScape#Combat doesn't exist anymore, so RuneScape combat is not a good R to section, as I initially guessed. Nyttend (talk) 06:43, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

  @Nyttend: That's because combat is now discussed at RuneScape § Gameplay:

  Combat involves attacking enemies, using abilities, and managing health and resources during encounters. Combat styles include Melee, Magic, Ranged and Necromancy. Melee, Magic and Ranged form a combat triangle in which each style has advantages and disadvantages against the others, while Necromancy, added in 2023, functions as a separate combat style.[23][24][25] In 2012, Jagex released the Evolution of Combat update, which introduced ability-based combat and rebalanced the combat system. Legacy Mode, allowing players to use an older-style interface and combat system, was added in 2014.[26][27] A 2026 combat modernisation update revised Melee, Magic and Ranged abilities and progression, including higher combat skill caps.[28][29]

  Player-versus-player combat has changed substantially over the game's history. The Wilderness historically served as the main open PvP area, but was restricted in 2007 as part of Jagex's efforts to combat real-world trading, restored in 2011 after a player referendum, and later reworked in 2022 into a primarily player-versus-monster area with optional PvP.[30][31][32]

  This is plenty of substance to warrant a redirect. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 15:06, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep RuneScape combat per Scryme. Delete the rest, using the same technique as I suggested abvoe to deal with any attribution problems. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 18:43, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

  Deleting and recreating RuneScape combat as suggested would cut loose the old revisions related to RuneScape armour, so I'm happy to delete the latter if the former is done first. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:01, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep all three combat redirects due to combat being discussed. Weak keep RuneScape Player Killing and RuneScape pking because the article discusses player-versus-player combat. Delete the rest as unmentioned, including RuneScape armour because there is no content left extant from a merge. -- Tavix ^(talk) 15:20, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Nominating redirects to do with RunesScape gods for deletion as discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 September 6#RuneScape skills suggested this is okay. I have also included non-god NPCs in this. One page is in Draft namespace for unknown reasons (was created as a redirect in 2022 after being speedy-deleted in 2021, hasn't been touched since). Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 10:11, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

• Note: One thing led to another and we ended up discussing King Black Dragon at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 September 12#RuneScape locations. TL;DR: After Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/King Black Dragon, it got merged into RuneScape (Special:Diff/30426061). It was then redirected to RuneScape monsters. Following Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/RuneScape monsters, King Black Dragon was deleted, losing our WP:ATTREQ (as the current version of the page doesn't have the 2005 edit history). Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 14:24, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Should probably withdraw King Black Dragon as it's a more complicated situation than the rest of these. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:48, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  @Here for the one billionth edit: Could you withdraw or at least un-bundle King Black Dragon? This would make this listing a straightforward 'delete all' now that the issue with Guthix was resolved. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:13, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

  I'd rather let this run its course for discussion and so whoever closes this can decide what to do (overruling any consensus here if appropriate). It doesn't block coming to a decision on the others.

  Without the merged history, personally I don't see why keep it. There is nothing of value here, just vandalism then later a brief well-intentioned edit pointing to Wikia. I don't know if the 2005 version can be undeleted, the offending RuneScape revisions deleted, or, my favourite option, simply let sleeping dogs lie (in the 20 years the author of those paragraphs has been unknown, this hasn't been an issue). Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 06:18, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

  @Pppery: As an admin, your input would be helpful here. The current version of King Black Dragon has no problematic history. However, it was previously an article. That article was merged into RuneScape (7 December 2005), but the redirect was retargeted to RuneScape monsters. When RuneScape monsters was deleted, the version of King Black Dragon that had the history of the article was deleted because its target was deleted (WP:CSD#R1) presumably because no-one had tagged it has having history relevant to RuneScape.

  Strictly speaking, the predeletion history is necessary to provide attribution for previous revisions of RuneScape, but I have no idea whether recovering those revisions is even possible after all this time. I had thought maybe revision deletion could fix the problem, but the relevant content was at RuneScape until 9 March 2006 when it was split out into the now deleted RuneScape monsters; a lot of unrelated revisions would need to be deleted. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:46, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

  The only advice I have to give is that admins are still capable of restoring the revisions of King Black Dragon that were deleted in 2006 (the sentinel date before which deleted revisions can't be recovered is June 2004). Admins don't have any tools for dealing with this that you haven't brought up already -- rebasing edits is technically possible but not something that I would support doing here even if the community were willing to do it. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 21:22, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete all Essentially pure fancruft. Unless there is a reason to think that content from that former article remains on the page, which I think is unlikely, I think the fact that it was deleted is a non-issue. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:12, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Attribution is required for every revision, not just the current one. As long as old revisions remain accessible, it's necessary to preserve the history of who authored them for copyright purposes. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:51, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  @Scyrme: Hi, I've just come back from Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 September 13#c-Rusalkii-20260914020000-Here_for_the_one_billionth_edit-20260913232100. Is that not a good point, that we can just cite the author(s) in a dummy edit? Perhaps not for King Black Dragon if we don't have the original edit history, but for Falador if it were to be re-nominated (I don't think I will, but just for example) or any others this concern applies to? Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 03:19, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

  As Rusalkii said, that's only possible "as long as there aren't too many of them". Additionally, Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia states that "Using this method, the edit history of the source page will be unnecessary after four years under the GFDL, though sooner deletion is possible under a CC-BY-SA 4.0 only license." suggesting there are probably license issues with deleting the redirect immediately even if you went to the trouble of doing this. As I understand it, the 4.0 license was adopted in 2023 and does not apply retroactively. (Maybe there's a way around it, idk.)

  I don't see a good reason to push for getting every single redirect nominated on this page deleted, even if it is possible in principle. Keeping a few for history-related reasons is harmless. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 10:10, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

If there are too many of them the history can be preserved in other ways, like moving the page to a subpage of the target's talk page or moving to a more plausible redirect title without leaving a redirect. We are never obligated to maintain bad redirects, though they may not be worth the hassle of saving the history. Rusalkii (talk) 19:57, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

Moving redirects to a new title without leaving a new redirect is normally done when the new title at least bears some resemblance to the old one. Moving redirects to radically different titles from the original just creates a confusing situation where article history is hidden under an entirely unrelated title.

Moving the target to a Talk subpage is rarely done and WP:MAD calls it "questionable" as a method for preserving attribution.

I just don't see a need here. All these more obscure methods create more hassle than simply not deleting, which is how situations like these are usually handled. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 22:38, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

(All this isn't even that relevant to this RuneScape gods nomination. This more about the other listings. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:10, 14 September 2026 (UTC))

• Delete all* (except King Black Dragon due to an unusual WP:ATTREQ issue). Some of these previously had articles, but they were mostly blanked and redirected so there's no history to worry about for most of these.
  Guthix was merged according to the edit summary of this revision (10 March 2005); the content was merged to RuneScape skills (10 March 2005). Guthix should only be deleted if the RfD concerning RuneScape skills is closed as delete. If it's not deleted, Guthix should be kept and the merge documented on Talk:Guthix.
  Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zamorak states that an article existed at the title, but was plagairised and deleted for copyright reasons. If a redirect was left, per the AfD outcome, it seems it was deleted in 2011. It's unclear why KelseW decided to create new redirects at Zamorak and Draft:Zamorak in 2025. Regardless, it seems there's no content history to worry about. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:44, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Minor note, Zamorak was retargeted to Old School RuneScape after originally redirecting to RuneScape. The reason was "mentioned here", but this is no longer true. There is no mention at Old School RuneScape. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:50, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  The only one of these topics currently mentioned seems to be Runescape monsters, but they are only mentioned with no coverage. The mere mentions would not satisfy a reader looking for info about monsters in RuneScape, so the redirect isn't actually helpful. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:54, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Update: Guthix can be deleted now that RuneScape skills has. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 10:20, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete all, including King Black Dragon, due to a lack of mention on Wikipedia. Attribution is not required as there is no extant content left from the merge. We are not required to provide attribution for old revisions and there is a disclaimer explaining that at the bottom of the page when viewing old revisions. I recognize that my view on the subject is not universal, so I recommend adding the list of contributors to the talk page (eg: like I have done here). -- Tavix ^(talk) 15:24, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

  The only thing in the disclaimer beneath old revisions that seems relevant is material not compatible with the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License, which I don't remotely see as a statement saying it's fine to ignore attribution for previous revisions. That message is there because most revisions of most articles were written before Wikipedia even adopted the current 4.0 license. The 4.0 license was only adopted in 2023. If anything, that message stresses the need for maintaining attribution for previous revisions because past contributors did not necessarily agree to co-license their contributions under the new license.

  This is even before considering that any content from past revisions can at any time be restored, copied, or forked elsewhere (and may already have been). If attribution for previous revisions doesn't matter, you're essentially saying it's now public domain, since the license the contributors agreed to no longer applies. And what if it is restored, even if only to be sent to AfD? Does the content revert to the previous license too? That's not how the public domain works. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 16:28, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

  It's clearly stating that old revisions contain material not compatible with the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License, which absolves the requirement under the license for attribution therein. I also agree that it is not a statement saying that it's fine to ignore attribution, but my position is that we needn't bend over backwards to adhere to a standard above and beyond what is required. I disagree with your slippery slope argument. Any deleted material can be restored at any time as they can be found, for example, in mirrors and archives. If material is restored from one of these sources, it would be a violation unless proper attribution can be provided at that time. If attribution is always required for all revisions, any deletion cannot be permitted. -- Tavix ^(talk) 16:52, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

  I really don't see where you're getting that it "absolves" anything. Just because it's not under the requirement of the 4.0 license to provide attribution doesn't mean it isn't under the same requirement from a different license (eg. the pre-2023 3.0 license past contributors were required to agree to). As for restoring content from a mirror without attribution, yes, that is a violation. I don't know how you get from there to any deletion being impermissible. On the contrary, it means that content resurrected from a mirror/archive without attribution should just be deleted again, as we would delete any other improperly licensed or copyvio content, if restoring the attribution isn't feasible.

  We're veering off-course here. Bringing it back to relevance, the situation where content was restored from a mirror/archive is comparable to the one with King Black Dragon and RuneScape, except the content was "restored" into old revisions of RuneScape from a now deleted version of King Black Dragon not a mirror/archive. I assume your position is nothing needs to be done here. My position is either the affected revisions of RuneScape need to be deleted or the attribution needs to be restored to remove the need to delete them. You a suggested list of contributors on Talk page. I'd be fine with that outcome instead of restoring some ancient version of King Black Dragon. Either way an admin would have to access the old history, even if it's just to make a list.

  If deleting the current redirect at King Black Dragon does not in any way impede getting the list of contributors for RuneScape's Talk page, I am happy to delete all. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 17:52, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

  Rather than pasting to Talk:RuneScape, I recommend a dummy edit – if the authors fit in an edit summary – or either of the WP:Merge and delete#Talk subpage (essay) methods. The WP:Merge and delete#Comparison table includes examples. I see that these approaches have been discussed above. Flatscan (talk) 04:31, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Wikipedia:ANSWER

• Wikipedia:ANSWER → Wikipedia:Reference desk  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

For a quick history lesson: In 2004 this was created as a target to Wikipedia:U.S. Northern wikipedians' notice board, out of all things, and retargeted to where it stands today in 2010.

Either way, this is horribly ambiguous. Wikipedia is full of things that need answering. For example, questions at the help desk, teahouse, reference desk, hell, each and every single village pump. I personally thought of this redirect when looking at WP:42. I'm leaning towards delete because of just how hopeless this is and its low number of links, but my second choice would be retargeting to Wikipedia:The answer to life, the universe, and everything just to give some sort of compromise. mwwv ^converse∫_edits 13:58, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

The subject is mentioned on both the target article and The Four Lads. Both articles seemed to go into the same amount of detail regarding the subject; only mentioned in one sentence in passing, including the fact that the musician and the music group collaborated on the subject. However, with that being said, it's not clear if a reader is attempting to locate the current target article or The Four Lads if they search up the search term, meaning this redirect is ambiguous due to multiple potential targets.

• Strong keep per Godsy. We should always be very conservative about retargetting shortcuts because most people do not regularly check the target and assume it leads to where it did when they first learned of it. This means that if it's reretargetted different people will link to it expecting different meanings, which can cause misunderstandings. Disambiguating shortcuts helps nobody and makes the shortcut essentially useless - most shortcuts are ambiguous, it's not a problem that needs fixing let alone one that justifies creating problems where none currently exist.

Keep as {{r from long name}}. This is not POV-pushing or non-neutral, but even if it were, per WP:RNEUTRAL, non-neutral redirects are permissible and the nominator is mistaken about the guidelines regarding redirects and neutrality.

There's nothing wrong with this redirect beyond not being concise. It's harmless. Most redirects are "unnecessary" given Wikipedia has a search engine. Redirects are cheap and created for various reasons besides being strictly "necessary" for navigation. None of the WP:R#DELETE criteria apply here. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:05, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2007 December 28 § Halloween Jack .E2.86.92 David Bowie – Delete and move over Halloween Jack (comics)

No mention at the target. This page was originally created in 2006 as a David Bowie persona, but was PRODed, converted to a redirect to the singer, and then deleted at RfD. At the time, the Marvel character which was an article, was seen as a better topic for this title. Now however, Halloween Jack (comics) has been reduced to a redirect to an unsourced one-line mention at its target.

Is David Bowie / Diamond Dogs the primary target, or should this be a disambig? Jay 02:57, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Disambiguate. Not sure if there's a primary topic. but there are more than 2 plausible targets so a disambiguation page is warranted anyway.

My external search results are mixed for the Bowie character and various horror films particularly The Curse of Halloween Jack and The Legend Of Halloween Jack. The films don't have their own articles, but are listed at the article of their director, Andrew Jones (filmmaker). Besides the Bowie persona, Marvel character, and films, there's also Jack O'The Lantern, the folklore character responsible for the association of the name "Jack" with Halloween in the first place.

Jack Skellington should be listed as a "see also", as it seems plausible someone who doesn't remember the character's surname but does remember that he's a resident of Halloween Town would search for him using "Halloween Jack". – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:52, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

• Weak retarget, but where? While Handegg is an accepted alternative spelling of the Swiss village Handeck (see my reply to the nomination below), Hand Egg as two words (or hyphenated Hand-egg, which I've bundled into this discussion) would seem less likely to refer to that locality and more likely to refer to the slang term for a sport that involves handling an egg-shaped ball – though that usage of the term doesn't seem to be mentioned on wiki with the exception of the existing redirects for American handegg, Australian handegg and Canadian Handegg. Perhaps the generic Gridiron football would be a better target? Rosbif73 (talk) 14:03, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

The use of the term as a slang description for some variety of Gridiron football does not seem to be explained anywhere on wikipedia; if such an explanation is added, we could then add a hatnote to the Swiss village's page.

Countershock

• Countershock → Defibrillation  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

per wikt:countershock, it's not a concept exclusive to use of the zappy bricks, though that's probably close enough to the primary topic that a soft redirect to wiktionary only might be the slightly better option here, so consider this a weak nom consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 13:24, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

• Support. Thank you, that would indeed be an improvement that would optimize in this case. As the creator of the redirect (created in 2016), I fully support consarn's proposed improvement. Namely, please provide one of those soft redirects to Wiktionary for this term, instead of redirecting to defibrillation, which is merely one major category of activity where countershock is relevant. Thank you. Quercus solaris (talk) 14:15, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

  Can someone remind me about WP's process on this point? (IANAL, including wikilawyering.) I intend to change the page to use {{Wiktionary redirect}} if there are no objections here within a certain time frame. How many days must pass before a bold move is made? Thx.

  xfdcloser is a pretty neat tool for this process, which i'll recommend having regardless just because of how versatile it is, though as i mentioned in the summary when undoing the soft redirection, closing this should be left to an uninvolved editor consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 20:04, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

• Weak keep/weak delete, but do not retarget to wiktionary. The various mentions are all related to the current target, so there's certainly nothing else to reasonably target. The only other search hits are for a handful of sources published by a "Countershock Press". That being said, I wouldn't mind seeing this go altogether, but if it has to stay, it should stay where it is. As almost always, Wikt redirects are actively harmful and should almost never be used. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 23:44, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

• Agree with Deacon. Weak delete because we already have redirect Electric countershock. Weak keep because Countershock had ~1000 pageviews (presumably for the topic of the heart) in the last decade, as compared to Electric countershock which had only 250 (of which ~100 were on a single day for some reason in 2022).

Slabodka was indeed a name of Vilijampolė when it was part of Poland and Russian Empire and it gave the name of Slabodka yeshiva. The creator likely named the redirect "Slabodka, Belarus" in the places where the word "Slabodka" was used because in the name looks like Belarusian spelling of Slobodka.

Delete. Target is not Hungarian. The bank was founded in 2002, several decades after Austria-Hungary collapsed, so this is more confusing than helpful.

The order of this redirect's title just seems like an unlikely jumbled mesh up of the target article's name.

Although the specific list he was working off appears to have been deleted, I assume this was an {{R from sort name}} creation.

• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 December 8 § Wikipedia:RFD/2018 November 18 – keep

A bot automatically creates a new page for CFD, TFD, RFD and the like with every passing day, so there was no need to create these redirects. Additionally, all but one of these was created by someone who would later be ArbComBanned. These redirects never really served any purpose on this site, and thus should be deleted.

• Keep. The last one, and I presume most or all of the rest, were used to provide shortened edit summaries in sweeping automated changes. Edit summaries are not fixable nor viewable through WhatLinksHere, so deleting these redirects would break thousands of links, which is generally considered a bad idea.

• Followup comment. Reaffirming my delete vote above, even in light of the above explanation. On the technical side, I suspect it's likely fixable with a phab task if someone cares, although I'm not sure the will would exist to actually do it. If not, XFDCloser should provide a link to the current discussion when these are deleted, so anyone who follows the red link in the edit summary will be able to see the original discussion if they really need from the deletion log (which is still on the unlikely side). That being said, this still isn't a valid excuse per WP:FAIT. Many of these were created after the original discussion, even after there was an objection to these. Moreover, there's no particular reason these couldn't have just used the full link in the edit summary; they're well under the limit. That BHG didn't do so isn't a valid reason to double down on a bad decision in the first place.

Brahminism

• Brahminism → Historical Vedic religion#Brahmanism  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

It currently redirects to Historical Vedic religion but Brahminism is not Historical Vedic religion.

See:

"Brahmanism refers to the whole way of life associated with the brah- mans (brahmins), a caste in *Hindu India. Spe- cifically, Brahmanism is a development of earlier *Vedism, which was the religion of the *Indo-European *Aryans, who entered India in the second millennium B.C.E. Brahmanism, like Vedism, reveres the ancient rituals and sacred texts or *Shruti-the Vedas and the *Brah- manas, *Upanishads, and *Aranyakas that grew out of them but it also places a great deal of trust in the myths contained in less sacred texts or *Smirti, such as the epics the *Mahabharata and the *Ramayana, the *Puranas, and various books of Hindu law." David Leeming, The Oxford Companion to World Mythology p54

This view is prevalent for centuries as seen here:

"It may be noted, by way of proem, that the theory of the transmigration of souls is not advanced in the Vedas. It is a part of Brahman teaching, but Brahmanism and Vedaism are not the same. The Vedas are claimed as the out- come of direct revelation, while all that part of post-Vedic literature in which Brahmanism is enveloped is held to be purely traditional." Edgar Saltus (1885), The Philosophy of Disenchantment

• Noting the history around Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of epic films, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of epic films:1930s, and Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2014 May 16#Category:Epic films, I reckon a list along these lines would be kept today.

• Retarget to Portrait painting#Technique and practice, where the artistic meaning is best covered, with hatnote to Glossary of cricket terms#F (or Line and length. Those are the main ideas for which "full-length" is a term in itself, rather than an adjective of a noun (e.g. Feature film, Evening glove, Curtain raiser, Hammerhead ribozyme#Full-length ribozyme, or Cheval mirror). Search results are decent, but limited by that problem. Despite the Wiktionary entry, most mentions on enwiki refer to albums or films. J947 ‡ ^edits 01:50, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete. Based on this search, I'm seeing many albums and some songs called "full-lengths" (not merely a descriptor like "full-length album") which is not found in the Wiktionary entry (since the noun section only covers portraits), though since this is highly vague, targeting one particular topic isn't helpful for those looking for another.

The same can be done for the other contexts in which "full-length" might warrant wikifying, piping to Line and length, Full-length film, etc. as needed.

Gorillas in our midst

Retarget to Inattentional blindness#Invisible Gorilla Test. "Gorillas in our midst" is the name of the original study, but the redirect only points to the page on inattentional blindness instead of the specific section. ExitTheWarrior (talk) 18:12, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete. This is the (partial) title (with incorrect capitalization) of a paper that this article cites, but doesn't mention.

  Comment: I don’t think this is necessarily an incorrect capitalization. If you look at the original paper (the archived version linked in the article) you can see that the title is stylized as “Gorillas in our midst: sustained inattentional blindness for dynamic events”.

  Also the article definitely mentions the exact work described in the paper, even if it doesn’t mention it by that name. I’m not sure if this actually affects whether the redirect is valid, but thought it should be pointed out. ExitTheWarrior (talk) 12:18, 19 September 2026 (UTC)

(Batman: The Brave and the Bold)), a book by Richard Fairgray that is listed in his article and at Storylines Notable Book Awards, an episode of Endgame (TV series) that is mentioned in multiple articles, and an episode of Cataclysmo and the Time Boys. There's also a book called Gorillas in Our Midst: The Story of the Columbus Zoo Gorillas that's used as reference in two articles but doesn't have it's own article and wouldn't be suitable for inclusion on a dab page. The Daniel Simons paper is quite influential and probably could be covered by name in the Inattentional blindness article or in his biography (it is mentioned in the infobox), or both. It is used in as a reference in multiple Wikipedia articles and is listed at Change blindness § Further reading. There's more than enough for a Gorillas in our Midst dab page. What's not immediately clear to me is whether the Simons paper is the primary topic, though I think it has a reasonable claim at that. The sentence case redirect should either be kept or retargeted to a dab page. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 20:17, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

  I've created Draft:Gorillas in our Midst. This can be moved to Gorillas in our Midst or Gorillas in our Midst (disambiguation) depending on the primary topic determination. Gorillas in our Midst (disambiguation) will need to be created as a redirect if this is moved to the base title. The sentence case redirect nominated here should be tagged as {{R from other capitalization}}. If there is no primary topic, Gorillas in our Midst should be created as a redirect with the same target as the sentence case, and the sentence case should be tagged as {{R avoided double redirect}}, and a {{Redirect}} hatnote should be placed at the target pointing to the dab page. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 20:41, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

  I've added explicit mention of the paper at Inattentional blindness § Invisible Gorilla Test. It makes sense to refine (retarget) target Gorillas in our Midst directly to this section, assuming there's no serious primary topic dispute. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 22:04, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

Redirects to Major and minor

• Majore → Major and minor  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

None are mentioned at target, but I believe that these are all Romance language words. I find it plausible there might be affinity with music, especially French and Italian, per WP:FORRED, but these aren't mentioned anywhere and are a hassle for false friends/false cognates, as I've just discovered when searching for Minore (which I'm boldly turning into a disambiguation page instead), while looking for Minore, New South Wales. I find it unlikely an English speaker will misspell "major" or "minor" as any of these. Also, Mineur (surname) should be moved to Mineur and add a mention of Mineur (crater). Fork99 (talk) 09:46, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

• Let’s hope that this won’t become a WP:TRAINWRECK but here is my vote:
  • Listify Menor - a simple wikipedia search yields various people with the surname “Menor”
  • Move Mineur (surname) to Mineur per nom
  • Delete the rest per nom. Warm Regards, Miminity (Talk?) (me contribs) 10:59, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
• Listify as appropriate (as creator of at least some). Yes, they are all translations of major or minor in European languages, and as such in classical music often appear in titles, musical instructions, and such. For that reason they are typically included in music encyclopedias (as redirects), and were once on the Wikipedia:Music encyclopedia topics lists (which is why I created them). But certainly no need to prioritize that meaning to surnames or other uses which are likely more common; in fact as a disambiguation page they are better since the explanation could be clearer than a simple redirect.

• Tajar, Semnan → Tazareh, Semnan  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I don't see any evidence that there's a place called "Tajar" in Semnan Province, Iran (let alone in the eponymous county or city). There are 4 different places in Iran called "Tazareh", but that's a different term from "Tajar" even when written in Perso-Arabic script. So I suggest deletion.

Regardless of what I think, that's too high for the RFD community's comfort, especially if there are no other problems with this redirect such as other Tommy Wirkola projects in the works with which this could cause confusion.

• Lean un-refine to Lentil. Masoor is now mentioned in the parenthetical in the lead of Lentil, but not in the target section Lentil#Types. With the limited coverage in the lead of Lentil and the list entry at Dal#Common ingredients, I see no basis to prefer one target over the other. If I understand correctly that masoor is specifically means lentils or red lentils, and excludes other dried legumes that are covered by Dal, then keeping this at Lentil makes sense. If the coverage is expanded, removed, or reorganized then this and the related redirects Tavix identified can be retargeted.

"delete's per usual consensus about possessive form redirects; see the incoming links for that red link for more info" is what i would say if i wasn't evil (bad). in that case, i'd then follow it up with "see the previous rfd this was listed in" consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 19:18, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete's I can't see how this could be plural as claimed in the previous RFD. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:59, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

I could see people using EU's for EUs (or eUs), a plural of maybe endotoxin units or entropy units or execution units, but that then brings up the obvious question of why don't we have that redirect.

And it's a bit incoherent with the idea that EU is a primary redirect. If it's really that, then it's probably reasonable to assume that the possessive use of that overshadows this odd pluralization use.

I checked if we have any piped links to this, and we do, but they all seem to refer to the primary meaning of EU. --Joy (talk) 21:40, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

I have corrected these in accordance with MOS:POSLINK. As is often the case, many of these often ran afoul of MOS:SOB and MOS:OVERLINK and some were at least borderline for MOS:EGG problems. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 18:48, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete per nom, other respondents, and consistent with the outcome of dozens of similar RFDs. The notion that this should be treated differently as a possible plural is incoherent and inconsistent with actual (problematic) usage of the piped equivalent as well as with the designation of a primary topic. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 18:58, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Light Dragon

The term could also refer to the Vickers Light Dragon, though I have no opinion in this RfD. Fathoms Below (talk) 01:55, 9 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom § Plot has more information and context than Princess Zelda currently does.

...and Soviet-occupied Estonia is another dab page. (Along with Soviet-occupied Latvia and Soviet-occupied Lithuania. Having three separate pages for the Latvia-related phrases seems a bit too redundant.) 1234qwer1234qwer4 02:15, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

NGST

NGST is more likely to refer to Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (this redirect was last edited 22 years ago so that might explain it) _→AzaToth 17:11, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

• "Next Generation Space telescope" (NGST) was the formal name for Webb before it was named, and the name survives in documents of the time (e.g. ). A dab page with both Webb and Roman would be a sensible use of NGST. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 17:19, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
  • To clarify, I prefer keep the redirect, absent evidence that NGST is actually used to refer to Nancy Grace. If there was evidence NGST was, or is used for both, only then would a dab be appropriate. A redir to Nancy Grace would not be appropriate. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 06:40, 26 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep per Finlay's first sentence. There's plenty of use for NGST referring to the James Webb Space Telescope, but I'm not seeing that for Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. For example, ngst.nasa.gov still redirects to the James Webb page. -- Tavix ^(talk) 17:48, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep - I don't think it's likely that NGST is being used mistakenly for the Nancy Grace Roman. Omitting the initial of her last name would be a strange mistake, and even NGRST isn't in common use (doesn't appear in Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope article). Danbloch (talk) 20:09, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep the two correct ones University of Springfield. The fictional one from The Simpsons is named "Springfield University" not "University of Springfield", so these aren't actually ambiguous per WP:SMALLDETAILS. The list of former names for the College don't include any with "University". I've added a hatnote at Homer Goes to College in case anyone uses "Springfield University" as short for "University of (Illinois) Springfield".

The Simpson's Springfield University also appears in other episodes such as Little Girl in the Big Ten and others. Iggy Swan (Contribs) 19:05, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

There's more substantial information there about the University itself than at Homer Goes to College. However, the section has no citations so I'm unsure if the target can be expected be stable. Another editor may decide to redact the section for lack of sources. For now, tentatively support this. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 02:00, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

I agree that Springfield (The Simpsons)#Colleges/universities is more fitting. I also agree that this can be retargeted if content is expanded, removed, or reorganized, but the overview at Springfield (The Simpsons)#Colleges/universities is a sensible place to collect information about the university's appearances in multiple episodes and to place it in the context of other colleges and universities that have appeared in the series. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 19:10, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Depending on how broadly you define "company", a cooperative can be a type of company. Regardless, this is ambiguous. Could also refer to housing associations.

Sonja, King Mother

• Sonja, King Mother → Queen Sonja of Norway  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not sure if this is a faithful rendition of her Norwegian title, Kongemor which means "the king's mother" and would be similar to My Lady the King's Mother or Gunnhild, Mother of Kings. But I cannot find "King Mother" in the sources and as such I don't think this redirect can be a viable search term or be used in a prose. Sonja, the King's Mother can be created as an alternative. Keivan.f^Talk 06:16, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

I support the usage of both redirects proposed by Keivan.f, the more the better if there are potential other terms used than the article title.

(Side note: Hooking on to our discussion about the queen mother/queen dowager terms at Talk:Queen_Sonja_of_Norway#Queen_dowager/Queen_mother, the fact that her official title's literal translation is "the King Mother" proves by analogy my point that "queen mother" can be interpreted as "mother of the queen".) Marbe166 (talk) 07:15, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

"King mother" is not standard English; it sounds like a compound noun, but is generally unnatural. the fact that her official title's literal translation is "the King Mother" Only if you consider kongemor as a compound word like kingmaker or schoolteacher, then yes it could be translated as "king mother". So far we haven't had an update to the Norwegian royal website which has their bios in English so it would be interesting to see how they would be translating this title. That being said, queen mother isn't grammatically the same as "queen's mother"; it's a conventional title/role as I had mentioned before. Keivan.f^Talk 04:15, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep as a plausible if ungrammatical literal translation of Kongemor, without prejudice to the creation of other redirects (perhaps Queen Sonja the Queen Mother mirroring Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, for example). As an aside, I've created a redirect for KongemorKongemor, targeting Queen mother#Norway. Rosbif73 (talk) 09:32, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

  But I do wonder if Kongemor is rendered as "King Mother" in English; as I mentioned earlier, it is not standard English. I really don't think we should encourage the use of unconfirmed names or titles that are not common names of the subjects either. The closest thing we have in English is My Lady the King's Mother. If anyone else can put forward a source please go ahead. An update from the English webpage on the Norwegian royal court is also not available at the moment, so we have to rely on other sources for now. Keivan.f^Talk 04:15, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

  "King Mother" is not a correct translation of Kongemor, of course, but it is a plausible mistranslation that a non-native English speaker might search for. It's not as though the meaning of "Queen Mother", a former queen consort who is the mother of the current monarch, is transparent for someone unfamiliar with the term. Redirects are WP:CHEAP and this one is harmless. Rosbif73 (talk) 07:44, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep RuneScape2 (and Runescape2). External search results show the game was referred to in this way without a space. (eg. IGN article) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 18:53, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Keep Runscape, which has non-negligible all-time traffic (>800 total views). There's a UK-based running holiday firm by the name "RunScape Adventures" so maybe some of the hits are for them. However, external search results, especially on YouTube, do also show some uses which are unambiguously for RuneScape not for the UK firm. It seems reasonable to assume at least some of the traffic is looking for the game and would be helped by the redirect. Since the firm does not (yet) pass WP:NCORP and Wikipedia does not disambiguate for topics it does not have coverage for, the ambiguity does not need to be addressed. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:15, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Keep Runescpae. Plausible typo. External search results show many examples off-Wikipedia, and the total all time traffic (>300), though low, is more than would be expected from just typical background traffic redirects get just by existing. The traffic resembles more what would be expected for the occasional mistyped search. WP:R#K5: it's helpful to someone. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:25, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Delete the rest. Their all-time total traffic is negligible, suggesting these aren't actually helpful to anyone regardless of our assumptions about what is and isn't a plausible typo. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:28, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Looking closer at the results, I think you're right about it being a typo. However, it being a typo isn't a reason to delete by itself. There are plenty of {{r from typo}} redirects. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:20, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

  Turns out a lot of the hits are for things like #runescape2, Jmod-testing-item-RuneScape2-Beta-Items, etc. though there are some genuine examples of use on forums, blogs etc. besides the IGN article I linked earlier (eg. ). However, the examples are few and the all time traffic for the redirects themselves is low enough to be dismissed as background traffic, so ultimately there's no evidence anyone has actually been searching in this way. Seems fine to delete them. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:36, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep most. Most of these I see as plausible typos, especially the phonetic ones and the no space sequel redirects. The website is fine; it's a British company so it's plausible to think that it'd be .co.uk.

Katniss

• Katniss → Sagittaria  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Katniss Everdeen is the clear primary topic. Page views for Katniss Everdeen vastly outweigh views for Sagittaria (see the graph), even before taking into account that "katniss" is just one of many alternative names for Sagittaria. 🦬 Beefaloe 🦬 (talk) 07:44, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

• Oppose: Katniss isn't just one of the alternative names, but one which is used multiple times in the page. Search results for "katniss" produce the character second, so anyone searching for that can easily find what they're looking for, and even if they happen to land on the plant's article anyway, the hatnote is sufficient. Unsurprising that the page views weigh in favor of a fictional character from a popular franchise over a random plant species, but that shouldn't be the only determining factor when there's other value in keeping this redirect as is. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 08:53, 16 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep per WP:SMALLDETAILS. The character has a last name, and anyone looking for information about that specifically should be reasonably expected to both know it, and include it in a search. If they don't know it, or they're just too lazy to enter it, the hatnote at the current target gets them there. I also don't buy the pageviews argument in a vacuum, since it doesn't tell us how many had to click through the hatnote instead. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:40, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

  I don't agree that readers should be reasonably expected to ... include it in a search. That would be true if "Katniss" were a common given name, but it isn't (or wasn't until the books/films briefly made it a popular baby name). According to Ancestry.com, the name "Katniss" is a 21st-century creation, suggesting it wasn't ever used as a personal name prior to the publication of the Hunger Games. Ancestry.com isn't the most reliable source, but I wasn't able to find anything that contradicts this.

  Regardless, readers may reasonably think it was wholly made up for the books, like many names of fictional characters in sci-fi settings are, especially if they aren't aware of the plant or only know it by another name. In that context, it's reasonable for readers to expect the first name would be enough. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 00:07, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to Katniss Everdeen with a hatnote to the plant. I agree the character is the primary topic.
  Regarding the pageviews, while it's true that it's difficult to tell how many of the views for Sagittaria were clicking through the hatnote, if you look at the all-time stats for Katniss itself, there's an obvious trend of gradual decline over time since 2015. The most plausible explanation for this is that the traffic for Katniss reflects the declining cultural relevance of the Hunger Games. I really doubt these stats are reflecting trends in interest for the plant. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 00:19, 17 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep: the Hunger Games character gets more page views, sure, but I fail to be convinced that she has enough long-term significance to be primary for her given name alone. And while this wasn't a common given name prior to the publication of the series, there are other potentially notable people with the name or nickname  – and even an orca with a mention on wikipedia! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosbif73 (talk • contribs) 07:34, 17 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep. I, for one, would probably search for just "Katniss" when searching, and am not sure I would've remembered her last name. Long-term significance is useful up to a point: if the vast majority of searchers are trying to find a particular article and we can expect this to continue for at least a number of years, then we should help them. The wikipedians of twenty years from now can worry about whether the book series has been sufficiently forgotten for the plant to be the primary topic again. Rusalkii (talk) 16:13, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

  @Rusalkii: "Keep" would mean "Katniss" redirects to the plant, not the character. Do you mean "Retarget"? Or did I misunderstand your argument? – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 18:30, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Tom Tipper

• Tom Tipper → List of The Railway Series and Thomas & Friends characters  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No information about this character at the target. There are mentions in other articles though I do not see any as an ideal primary target. There are mentions of a Tom Tipper / Thomas Tipper at Beer in Sussex and Music of Sussex about a Newhaven brewer on whom a song was also written. Delete to favour search results. I thought about a disambig, but could not come up with an entry for the brewer.

This was an unsourced 2-paragraph stub that lasted from 2005 to 2006. It was merged to its then target, but trimmed over time, and subsequently removed, before it became a redirect itself. No reason to provide attribution. Jay 07:09, 8 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep - I re-added Tom Tipper to the target article. Based upon the diff you provided, I do not see any reason for the character's removal from the list, and so I conclude that it was done accidentally (after all, the edit was meant to add other minor characters to the list). Accordingly, I think the redirect is now sensible. I do not think the other mentions of Tom Tipper are significant enough to warrant a DAB or hatnote. ‡ El cid, el campeador ^talk 18:15, 9 September 2026 (UTC)

Knifing

• Knifing → Stabbing  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

only refers exclusively to stabbing as a noun. as a verb, it refers to stabbing, slashing, carving, betraying, ignoring, overcharging, and... sharpening non-knife objects with knives? who the hell uses it for that?

i'm a little torn between deleting and soft redirecting to wikt:knife#verb, though consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 18:59, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep. Even if we say this is ambiguous, stabbing is the primary topic and the ambiguity can be resolved by a hatnote to cutting.

"Slashing" and "stabbing" aren't meaningfully different; it's the same crime - to kill or injure someone with a knife/blade. (cf. Slasher film) The sense "betraying" is from the expression "knifed [stabbed] in the back", so is in-fact also being used in the sense of "stabbing". The sense of "overcharging" is related to expressions like "gouging", so, again, is also being used to mean "stabbing", albeit in a broader metaphoric sense.

I've never heard of anyone using "knifing/knifed/etc." to mean "carving/carved/etc." or "ignoring/ignored/etc.", though apparently these are being used in the sense of "cut" rather than "stab". These can be handled b a {{redirect}} note pointing to cutting and/or cutting (disambiguation), or a new knifing (disambiguation) that links to Carving and Ignoring if we think these narrower uses in the sense of "cutting" are plausible searches and wouldn't fit within the existing cutting (disambiguation). – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:01, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

That said, imo, the broader, more straightforward meaning of cutting is much more plausible than carving or ignoring; the latter interpretations seem like unlikely searches to me. If someone were searching for those topics, they probably wouldn't type "knifing" into the search bar to look for them. I personally don't think hatnoting to them is warranted, but won't object if others disagree. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:16, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Nursing care plan for tuberculosis

• Nursing care plan for tuberculosis → Tuberculosis  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This is an odd one. There's no discussion of the topic at the target nor at Management of tuberculosis. The pre-BLAR content is an entirely unsourced article about the nurse role in general. I looked at several versions and found no mention of tuberculosis. This was supposedly moved to Patient carePatient care in January 2006 but the history and article remained at this title; it was BLAR'd six minutes post-move.

Comment - I don't have a strong opinion on whether this redirect is helpful, but it's worth noting that "the Logos" often is treated as a proper noun, especially when used as a synonym of God the Son (target of God the Word). In general it is common for "Logos" to be treated as a proper noun in the contexts of Christianity (see Logos (Christianity)) and Neoplatonic philosophy. If the redirect is not deleted it should be categorised as {{r from sort name}}. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:31, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Also worth noting that "logos" without capitalisation could be interpreted as a plural for "logo", however, Logos still treats the Greek term as the primary topic and the inclusion of a definite article ("the") strengthens the religion/philosophy interpretations over the plural for "logo". – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:35, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

  While I have no opinion on whether this particular redirect should go to wiktionary, this strikes me as about the same argument as "we don't allow wikipedia as a source, why do we send readers to it?" It's accepted practice to redirect things to wiktionary sometimes, if you object to that in the general case you need an RfC not an RfD for this individual instance of it.

  Your argument adds more reason for "LGTM" to exist, not for deletion.

Not sure what to do about this one. Neither target article seems to mention anything substantial about the subject of this redirect. In addition, the article Bowser also seems to not include specific information about the subject of this redirect in a way that would satisfy a reader researching this term.

• delete, essentially as a sort of hacky way to return to red. bowser has had different castles in pretty much every piece of media since his debut and childhood, outright churning through them in some games (such as new soup), and his children tend to follow suit with castles of their own, so the term hardly narrows it down. if any one castle, set of castles, or the general concept manages to have some coverage found to at least warrant a mention (or even an article), it might then be a somewhat good idea to recreate this, but i haven't found anything specific or substantial enough at the moment consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 15:55, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

Trattoria Records

• Trattoria Records → Cornelius (musician)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete: Only mentioned in discography of target page so nothing is learned from this redirect. No other valid targets with any further information. Apparently not notable so I don't see a reason to keep for the history or anything. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 08:47, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep. The label has almost 300 releases and has signed other artists besides Cornelius; not only should it be covered on Cornelius's page more expansively, but it might be worthy of restoration as an article. This was probably thoughtlessly redirected when it should have been merged, like so much other record label content. Chubbles (talk) 11:42, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

  @Chubbles would you be willing to convert it back to an article then? If there's a valid article that's fine, but I don't think it's appropriate for a redirect or merge target because the label is a separate entity from Cornelius (he didn't found it or anything, he was just signed to it). The currently existing redirect doesn't help anyone because all they learn from Cornelius' page is that some of his albums came out on that label. You could learn that from Discogs or anywhere else, but Wikipedia is dedicated to substantial biographical information, not facts better suited to a database. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 22:21, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

  From what I can tell, Cornelius founded the label, but it may well be worthy of a separate article that I will not be able to contribute to in the next several days (I am traveling). I see no reason that a merge couldn't happen here as well. Chubbles (talk) 23:44, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete created in a bot-like fashion. Unlikely to be used by a human. Traumnovelle (talk) 23:07, 24 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep. Old Spanish names use this format because "de" was not part of their surname, it indicated who were their parents or from where they were from. For modern names, the preposition is now part of the surname. This is explained at WP:LISTAS and Spanish naming customs. Tbhotch^™ (CC BY-SA 4.0) 20:40, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

  According to WP:LISTAS:

  Sometimes the name containing the prefix is not a family name, but a description of where the person is from. In these cases, the sort value is how the entire name is spelled. For Peire de Corbiac, "de Corbiac" is a description where Peire is from, the town of Corbiac. So, the name means 'Peire of or from Corbiac' and is sorted {{DEFAULTSORT:Peire de Corbiac}}.

  So even if we apply this, the redirect is still incorrect as the sort name should not be partitioned at all. (This would also mean De Tapia, Andres is also wrong so maybe it should be bundled.) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:54, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

  it shouldn't be bundled, as that's a different flavor of wrong in other contexts (and also this one) consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 21:24, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

  He is not French, he is Spanish, so I don't know why you selected the French customs instead the right customs immediately above: Generally, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish names do not include lowercase particles in sorting, but do include uppercase particles. That "generally" is what I said above, for old names "de" and variants are not part of the surname; for modern names "de" and variants are part of the surname. Furthermore "Andrés de Tapia" was not his birth name, it would have been Andrés de Navarrete y González. He took "Andrés de Tapia" when he was given the title of "señor del Castillo de Tapia", a castle (I assume that) formerly existed near León, Spain. Something called Tapia must have existed in the area (example Rioseco de Tapia, literally "dryriver of Tapia"). The sorting is not incorrect, it is just a reflect of the lack of customs that were adopted until the 1800s. Tbhotch^™ (CC BY-SA 4.0) 21:56, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

  The section I quoted isn't about French customs. The example is French, but it applies generally to cases where the particle is not part of a surname. The earlier section you quote is not applicable because it's applies to a surname, not to a description of where the person is from, which is what you argued this was. The additional context you've provided here clearly indicates that "de Tapia" isn't a surname but a descriptive title (comparable to "of Spain" in "Charles II of Spain"; the "of Spain" isn't a surname), so it follows the name should not be partitioned. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 22:01, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

  First and foremost I don't understand why you don't accept my opposition to your deletion proposal, being on the verge of WP:bludgeon this process. Because of this, this will be my last comment in this conversation and I still opposing its deletion as the nominator has not provided a legitimate argument for the deletion.

  Spanish language has grammar rules and academias dictating how to use the language correctly, something the English-speaking world seriously needs. Here are the APA style rules for Spanish :

  When looking up the last name "de la Rosa" in a phone book, would you look under last names starting with "D" or "R"? Well, it depends on the country where you're looking for the phone number. If you're in the United States, where the APA style was developed, you should look under the letter "D". In Spain and Latin America, you'll most likely have to look under the letter "R". [...] The APA Publication Manual is very clear on this point and states that, in Spanish, prepositions in names are omitted for alphabetical sorting purposes. Thus, a last name such as "de la Rosa" would be sorted as if it were written "Rosa de la".

  "Tapia, Andrés de" is not incorrect. The nominator only wants it to be incorrect, and until all the Category:Redirects from sort names are deleted as useless, this is a legitimate redirect. Tbhotch^™ (CC BY-SA 4.0) 22:23, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

  Bludgeoning? I replied to you twice (three times now). Continuing a conversation with 1 person in good faith is not bludgeoning.

  I would drop it here, except it's relevant for this process that you've actually persuaded me. I was not aware that the convention differed in Spanish. Per the info you linked, evidently my original rational was mistaken. I'm now also in favour of keeping the redirect. Though strictly speaking "de Tapia" isn't a surname (so wouldn't be partitioned according to Wikipedia's guidelines), not everyone can be expected to know that. With redirects there's more scope for leniency. If one were to apply the cited modern conventions retroactively to the name on the assumption that it were a surname, Tapia, Andres de is what you would get. Both de Tapia, Andres and Tapia, Andres de are plausible depending on which language/regional conventions you apply retroactively.

  Though I've changed my mind as the nominator, I am not withdrawing since other participants have argued to delete, only one of them "per nom", and I have no idea if they would be/are also persuaded. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:48, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

I can't imagine why anyone would search for "spear Odin" instead of "spear of Odin" if they didn't remember the name, and didn't think of looking under "Odin". And that didn't even exist until a week ago. It has a grand total of five hits, all in the two days after it was created, and none in the six since then (my view tonight would probably make six all time, but it's not on the chart). If it didn't occur to even one editor to make a redirect from "spear of Odin" until this discussion (nearly twenty years after the target article, Gungnir, was written), then there's simply no way that people have been searching for "spear Odin" in significant numbers.

The link is being clicked because it pops up in the search window when people are looking for something else, and people are curious about what it refers to. Likely when typing "spear of..." and accidentally hitting 'd' instead of 'f', because then "spear Odin" is the top result. And it gets clicked on once every two and a half weeks. An occasional typo isn't a valid reason for keeping it. It's simply not how people search on Wikipedia; note we don't have redirects for "Arc Triomphe", "Spear Destiny" (or "Sword Destiny"), and I'm not even going to bother searching for a redirect called "Lord the Rings". The only reason we have "Hammer Thor" is because the same person who created "Spear Odin" created it. P Aculeius (talk) 01:04, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Cherrylume

• Cherrylume → UE Lady Red Warriors volleyball  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The redirect previously targeted to Cherrylume Iron Lady Warriors before it became a redirect to UE Lady Red Warriors volleyball. Cherrylume was the sponsor company of the team, but without the initial article it was supposed to target, it has now become somewhat redundant. MarcusAbacus (talk) 07:42, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete - this is kind of a weird one? I don't see that Cherrylume is discussed anywhere else on WP, but redirecting a company/brand name to a sports team is used to sponsor does not seem like it would be helpful to readers. I am seeing over 600 pageviews in the past 4 years, so maybe if it is a red link someone will create an article on Cherrylume. Or maybe not. ‡ El cid, el campeador ^talk 14:25, 21 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep. There does seem to be sources calling the team simply Cherrylume , so someone searching for the team will find the redirect helpful. I've added a source to the target that specifies that Cherrylume is a manufacturer of roofing materials, so someone looking for the company will at least be able to get basic information on them. -- Tavix ^(talk) 16:39, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

• Weak keep: it's very tempting to say delete per WP:MIXEDSCRIPT, but the lateral click isn't something most users will be able to type, and it is conceivable that they will select the wrong Unicode character in whatever interface they use to find the rare character. Then again anyone who is unfamiliar with the script is more likely to search for Karas Region (the former official name) anyway. Rosbif73 (talk) 16:26, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

These titles contain precomposed Roman numerals (U+2160–217F), intended for representing Roman numerals as standalone blocks in in CJK scripts. They are rarely used (see for example pageviews for the World War redirects), and if directly entered to the search bar they are automatically substituted with plain Latin text. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 09:20, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

The World War II redirect gets 11 views a month, admittedly dropping off several years ago. That's more than I'd attribute to background noise. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 13:19, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

• Indifferent. I've generally stamped out the use of these characters in article titles and content; I agree they are undesirable. But maybe for redirects they are harmless or rarely useful? Some of these redirects have been created by page moves, and some are pretty old. WP:R#KEEP reason 4 thus applies, and violation of title conventions is not listed under WP:R#DELETE. These characters do still show up in contributions to CJK-related articles, so though they are pretty rare, they are not completely unused. I was able to use https://ah refs . com/backlink-checker (remove the spaces; it's blacklisted here) to find that https://babelnet.org/synset?id=bn%3A00070139n&lang=EN&transLang=ZH links to the WW2 redirects (see the Sources tab), but only because it's cataloging our redirects. So maybe the traffic we're seeing is not organic and these aren't actually helping anyone. It is also weird that these exist but lots of other similar redirects don't exist for other articles that have Roman numerals in the title. -- Beland (talk) 15:36, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep. 14 mainspace pages link to that redirect. Possibly they predate the Jukude language -> Máku language page move in 2021. The Máku language page contains "Jukude" enough times I think it's plausible someone would search that way. I know nothing about this subject, but at the least I can't support deleting it while links to it are still in use. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 22:59, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

It wouldn't be difficult to replace all those links if needed. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:17, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

It's not probable because the name Jukude applies only to the people, and never to the language. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 01:25, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

External search results on Google, Google Scholar, and Google Books return no non-Wikipedia hits for "Jukude+language". Results for "Jukude" alone yields results that state that this word means "person, human" (eg. ). Rogers, 2001, states:

The speakers of this language referred to themselves as jukude-itse [zokude-itse] ‘people-PL’. It is commonplace to refer to the language as Máku in the linguistic literature, reserving the autonym, consequently, for the cultural group of speakers of this language.

If I understand rightly, -itse marks this word as referring to people, so maybe without the person marker suffix the word is the native word for the language. This redirect is linked to in several articles; maybe the references in one of them can provide evidence for usage of "Jukude language" off-Wikipedia? – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 23:13, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Usage looks to be predominantly in the form of lists. Ticuna–Yuri languages#Language contact and Languages of Brazil#Classification of languages as linguistic or cultural heritage have Portuguese references. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 23:32, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

One of the pages, I've forgotten which, referenced ISBN 978-3-11-025513-3. It makes note "A number of languages have been called Makú, several of which have nothing to do with one another". So we must be careful not to get Máku language and Makú language muddled, as Ctrl+F can ignore diacritics. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 23:52, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

@Scyrme The term "Jukude" is definitely not the native designation for the language. It is the designation for the people though. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 01:22, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

Why "definitely"? You have sources that say so? – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 01:31, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

@Scyrme Check the grammars of the language and see if the name "Jukude" is used for the language. I couldn't find anything. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 16:54, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

The closest I found using "Jukude" and not "jukude-itse" (people) was a German source. Note that I have only had success in accessing this link on mobile - desktop browsers just give me an "Access is temporarily restricted" screen - so you can try mobile or find it on another website (what I like about ResearchGate, when it lets me in, is it doesn't require login):

Kolonialitäten und tribale Zonen. Koch-Grünbergs Beziehungen im Feld während der Roraima-Orinoco-Expedition by Ernst Halbmayer (July 2023), Philipps University of Marburg

It reads: "Die Selbstbezeichnung der Gruppe war Jukudeitse und die Sprache Jukude." Which Google Translates to: "The group's self-designation was Jukudeitse, and the language was Jukude." Interestingly, it (or its quoted passages) seems to use the term "Máku" to refer to the people, contrary to the Máku language page:

Drei Porokotó und einen Máku haben er und seine Henkersknechte mit der Rifle erschossen.
He and his henchmen shot three Porokotó and one Máku with the rifle.

Wie Koch-Grünberg festhält: »Die Unterhaltung meiner Leute dreht sich jetzt beständig um die ›wilden Indianer‹, Waiká […], die diese Gegend gerade in der jetzigen Zeit gern zu Überfällen (um Mitternacht) auf die durchreisenden Majonggóng und Máku benutzen sollen« (VII: 10).
As Koch-Grünberg notes: "My men’s conversation now constantly revolves around the ‘wild Indians’—the Waiká […], who are said to favor this area, especially at the present time, for launching raids (at midnight) on the passing Majonggóng and Máku" (VII: 10).

Auch »mit den Arekuna, von denen einzelne bei den Yekuaná leben, kommen Misch-ehen vor; ebenso mit den Máku am Auari« (Koch-Grünberg 1923: 351).
"Mixed marriages also occur with the Arekuna—some of whom live among the Yekuaná—as well as with the Máku on the Auari" (Koch-Grünberg 1923: 351).

I don't know if I've actually contributed anything here, just that it passed the time. Either way, my view remains that if the term "Jukude" is in use and someone might reasonably search it or follow a link using it, we should keep this. Template:R from incorrect name can be used, or Template:R from alternative name if it is less certain that name is incorrect. Template:R from move may also be suitable, although, looking at the history closer, the page only lived there from 2020-12-24 to 2021-03-08.

Only tangentially related, that is interesting this language page's moves were driven by a single user from 2011 to literally today (UTC, yesterday in the Americas). I hope they partake in this discussion. Possibly there is no definitively correct name for this language. Another idea I've just had, is to check the other Wikipedia languages for references. They all start with "jukude", "jukudea", "yukude", or Язык юкуде (which apparently is also yukude). But I have not looked into where they may have got that name from. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 18:59, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

@Here for the one billionth edit AFAIK Koch-Grünberg, who is being discussed here, only called the language "Máku". Here is his book which contains a vocabulary of it. Since the language is called "Jukude" here, I support keeping this but with the caveat of using {{R from incorrect name}}. The only name the language is otherwise called is "Máku" (though with some diacritical variation as "Makú, which is much more ambiguous). The other WP articles were probably moved by kwami per enWP usage rather than due to some reference present in the other WPs. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 13:17, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

Elon Musk's submarine

• Elon Musk's submarine → Tham Luang cave rescue#Elon Musk  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Musk's submarine → Tham Luang cave rescue#Elon Musk  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

This redirect has an interesting history. The page at this title was an article for 11 days in August 2018 (a month after the actual cave rescue occurred), whereupon it was redirected to Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue. After that, FWDekker retargeted it to Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue and defamation case in 2020; Cewbot retargeted it to Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue & defamation case in 2022 (which Tallungs reverted); I retargeted it to Tham Luang cave rescue in 2025. Last but not least, starting a few minutes earlier, today Moonraker12 tried four different targets: Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue and defamation case, Legal affairs of Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue and defamation case, Tham Luang cave rescue, and Tham Luang cave rescue#Elon Musk.

As that discussion reveals, we have three different articles on Wikipedia this redirect could possibly target where the submarine was mentioned - Elon Musk, Legal affairs of Elon Musk, and Tham Luang cave rescue - and no consensus on which one to send the reader to. Any thoughts? Duckmather (talk) 23:29, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

• I am leaning retarget to Legal affairs of Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue and defamation case. It looks the best well-written out of the three (albeit not by a wide margin) and provides clear navigation to Tham Luang cave rescue. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 00:11, 13 September 2026 (UTC)
• I'm questioning if this redirect should exist at all. But if it should, the target should be either Tham Luang cave rescue#Elon Musk or Legal affairs of Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue and defamation case.
  I'm leaning towards the latter, because of Musk's narcissism, making himself the central point of the situation. Elon Musk made sure the submarine ordeal was about Elon Musk. It had little to do with the actual Tham Luang rescue. - Manifestation (talk) 08:27, 13 September 2026 (UTC)
• Note I bundled in Musk's submarine as well, as they should have the same target or if one is deleted then the other should be as well. Casablanca 🪨^(T) 16:16, 14 September 2026 (UTC)
• I don't think the redirect is necessary. The redirect's title is a misnomer: The linked-to sections aren't about the submarine but about the legal issues surrounding it. The redirect is also not in an appropriate category (I think): It's currently in Category:Redirects to related topics, but it's not so much about a related topic as it's just a phrase you might think of when searching for more information. For which there is no category, afaik. So I think the redirect should be deleted. FWDekker (talk) 18:58, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

  It's an R from merge, which must be retained for attribution purposes and may not be deleted unless the page history is moved elsewhere first. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:18, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

• Sorry about the mess; I came across this at Wild boar (disambiguation) as a redirect to Tham Luang cave rescue but couldn’t see it there; I intended to redirect this to Legal affairs, but got a clash notice (as Musk’s submarine redirected somewhere else), so I self-reverted. Musk’s involvement with the cave rescue anyway seems pretty minimal (or even negative), so I was considering proposing that section be summarized and merged with Legal affairs as well: The submarine itself (which was actually just some kind of capsule) is about as notable as a kayak absent of the legal fuss that accompanied it, so I suggest the redirect to Legal affairs is appropriate (It is probably worth keeping it for the edit history). OTOH Musks submarine is just duplication, with no incoming links, so if it can be deleted then do that. Moonraker12 (talk) 17:02, 16 September 2026 (UTC)
• Currently the most extensive coverage is at Legal affairs of Elon Musk#Tham Luang cave rescue and defamation case and Tham Luang cave rescue#Elon Musk. There may be an opportunity to better consolidate the coverage but I see this as an area where duplication is to be expected. I think it's a coin toss where to target these now. They should certainly have the same target (if neither is deleted). If the coverage is reorganized in the future then the targets may need to change again. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 15:13, 17 September 2026 (UTC)
• Comment: There's also Elon Musk and the Tham Luang cave rescueElon Musk and the Tham Luang cave rescue, which should be synced to the same target. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:13, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

  That seems implausible to me as a search target, but may have been linked to at one point? Its hit count had odd spikes in October 2023, and there was a sustained increase in traffic in February 2025. Good find. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 14:21, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

  It's a more likely descriptive title that would be more suitable for a stand-alone article on the topic if it were ever to be re-created. If consensus were to deem the submarine redirects harmful (I don't think they are, by the way), then an option could be to move the page history to this title and delete the submarine redirects. --Paul_012 (talk) 16:06, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

I wouldn't count that YouTube video as a source. The same phrase is translated differently in other video titles, so these are probably LLM translations provided by YouTube: Hot Bro “Say Hi”, Hot Bros Say Hi, Brother Say Hi. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 18:23, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

I was also concerned these were automatic translations, however, regardless of where it came from, if a reader finds the video with that title they'll look up the show using that translation.

The redirect was newly created, it was created by a move, and there are still incoming links to the new title; these factors make it difficult to judge if people are actually searching this by looking at the traffic stats. Could be better renominate the redirect later if the traffic dies off and stays dead after the incoming links are updated post-move, rather than rushing to delete now on the assumption that no-one would find it helpful. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 00:30, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

There are no roller sports mentioned at the target, so it is not clear if there are any roller sports at the 2026 Asian Games. While skateboarding has previously been categorized as a roller sport, it does not appear to be at this iteration of the Asian Games, thus this should likely be deleted.

  It is not libel; libel is a deliberate or negligent publishing of something false. This epithet is an opinion, which people are allowed to have. Our only question is if this is a possible search term. 331dot (talk) 19:13, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep as Bibi is mentioned as his nickname in the lead. The term doesn't need to be included verbatim if it is obvious why it redirects there. plenty of uses of the term and it cannot refer to anyone else. I cannot see a scenario of someone searching this and being confused as to why they ended up where they did. I am not against revisiting this in a few months if pageviews show that this redirect isn't being used. Traumnovelle (talk) 21:40, 21 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep as {{r from pejorative}}. As Pinoccappuccino notes, it has appeared in the news and on social media so I see no reason to think it wouldn't be plausible, especially as "butcher" is also a very common pejorative with a long and well-established history of use for politicians and officials. Finding examples of such redirects on Wikipedia is trivial (eg. Jamal the Butcher, The Butcher of Beijing, Butcher of Bengal). It's unambiguous and I agree with Traumnovelle that this would not be a surprising target; also not against leaving this open for renomination in a few months if the traffic shows no discernable usage. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 13:52, 22 September 2026 (UTC)
• Keep: Unambiguous, obvious from the first sentence that it refers to him as "Bibi" is in the first sentence, has enough usage that people will plausibly be looking it up, and per Scyrme the article + common knowledge of "butcher" as a nickname is enough to figure out why someone would call him that. WP:RNEUTRAL does not require us to delete even very biased names. Rusalkii (talk) 22:16, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
• Delete. Violates WP:NPOV and WP:NEUTRALTITLE. Does not serve as a standard, objective search alternative to the primary article. —Biosketch (talk) 04:15, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

• Keep. Redirects don't have to be neutral or inoffensive, and "not mentioned at the target" is really a proxy for "will a user be surprised to wind up here?", which I'm pretty sure they won't. --Trovatore (talk) 19:56, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete. "Libelous" isn't so much a concern, but being unmentioned is, as in the previous nomination. That it was used by someone doesn't matter; there has to be something in the target about it. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 19:16, 21 September 2026 (UTC)
  • There doesn't really have to be something at the target about it. This is a closer call than "Bibi the Butcher", though; it's not clear that it's unambiguous. --Trovatore (talk) 20:00, 29 September 2026 (UTC)
• Retarget to Butcher (nickname) this also refers to Antony Blinken and probably others. Its not unambiguous to be a good non-neutral redirect to an individual. Blinken should be mentioned at the target if this is closed as retarget. Traumnovelle (talk) 21:37, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

  This is misinformed as those P&Gs don't apply to redirects; the relevant guidelines are WP:RNEUTRAL. See also Category:Redirects from non-neutral names. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 18:22, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

• Note: Biosketch has removed Netanyahu (Butcher of Gaza) and Erdoğan (Butcher of Ankara) from Butcher (nickname) with the rationale: removing living figures per WP:BLP, WP:LABEL. WP:WEIGHT. News coverage of political barbs and partisan rhetoric does not make a pejorative epithet an encyclopedic moniker. Unless this is reverted, it is not longer a suitable target for proposals to retarget. (For clarity, I am not arguing that it should be reverted; I'm only stating there is no longer a mention there to retarget to.) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 18:29, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Honghe railway station

• Honghe railway station → Mile–Mengzi high-speed railway  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Requested action: deletion. For some reason, the (uncreated) article of this railway station redirects to the article of the railway it is on. This is misleading and useless. SpectralIon 01:01, 28 August 2026 (UTC)

• Keep as mentioned at target and an {{R from subtopic}} or {{R to related topic}}, without prejudice to creation as an article if it is notable. Also add a {{Redirect}} hatnote for Honghe station, a metro station in Chengdu, and a {{Distinguish}} hatnote vice versa. Fork99 (talk) 01:07, 28 August 2026 (UTC)

  My main issue with Honghe being redirected is that 1. No other Chinese high-speed rail station articles (that I have discovered) are redirects to the railway they are on and 2. Many Chinese high-speed rail stations, even for small areas like Honghe, are independent articles. If there was a precedent for this, I would be fine with it. SpectralIon 20:36, 28 August 2026 (UTC)

  This sounds like an WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument. I've found Wulongquan East railway station and Xinzheng East railway station which redirect to Beijing–Guangzhou high-speed railway, although these are the result of a WP:BLAR (blank and redirect), whereas Honghe railway station has always been a redirect. As someone familiar with Australian railway stations, there are hundreds of similar redirects to their respective railway lines or to the town they are in, I don't know about globally though.

• Retarget to Glossary of 2020s slang#N, where the term is explained, at least in the short term. I think this serves readers better than retargeting to an article purely about advertising, particularly as the term is not even mentioned there. This is not specifically about advertising, although that is a part of it. In the longer term I think that there is maybe a 50% change that we will eventually have a valid article specifically about nostalgia bait (as a phenomenon) or nostalgia baiting (as a practice) in the future. If we let the glossary entry expand as required then it will become clear if and when that should happen. --DanielRigal (talk) 17:07, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

Altynbekova Sabina

• Sabina AltynbekovaSabina Altynbekova → 2018 VTV9 – Binh Dien International Women's Volleyball Cup#Awards  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Not mentioned in the first target, nor should it be. Sum total of the text at the second target is an unsourced "Miss Volleyball" and a readymade salt-evading redlink. Any suggestion - let alone a completely unreasoned one, as at the previous rfd - that the latter is in any manner appropriate should be read in the context of the very contentious Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sabina Altynbekova. Trivial passing mentions in three other articles. None of the five are in the least suitable as a redirect target from this title. Delete to let search take over. —Cryptic 21:09, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

• Redirect - Redirect both to 2018 VTV9 – Binh Dien International Women's Volleyball Cup#Awards, as the listing is now sourced. --Jax 0677 (talk) 23:54, 12 September 2026 (UTC)
  • To one source that doesn't mention the award at all, and another that has less than a sentence about it. Which is beside the point, since you still haven't given any reason why this target is better than any of the other trivial mentions - the search prompted by a redlink would show them all. —Cryptic 00:04, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

    Sabina's win is SOURCED. The redirect was discussed very recently, and was ruled upon as retarget, so this instead of a deletion review, is kind of an abuse of process. --Jax 0677 (talk) 23:11, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

    (At least) one of the other trivial factlets is also sourced, and all three are less demeaning, and no more or less appropriate as a target. Deletion review would never in a thousand years endorse the previous rfd, between your entirely unmotivated bare vote - and you have still given no reason to redirect to this target - and the improper non-admin closure, but if you insist we can take it there and leave this dismissive redirect in limbo for another month or so after it inevitably sends it back here. —Cryptic 15:00, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

Sabarmati Junction (SBT) railway station

• Sabarmati Junction (SBT) railway stationSabarmati Junction (SBT) railway station → Sabarmati Junction railway station  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This is a procedural nomination of behalf of ROLEXMEENA who attempted to RfD this in July but did not edit the daily RfD log. ROLEXMEENA created this as a self-reverted {{R from move}}, see Special:Diff/1363953523. Note that they're blocked for sockpuppetry, but this account is the sockmaster so WP:G5 doesn't apply. Maybe WP:G7, but it's unclear what they wanted. I know G7 isn't usually applied to page moves if the mover wasn't the only contributor to all pages, but this was a self-reverted move over redirect that lasted 18 minutes.

"SBT" is mentioned in the article for what it's worth, so seems plausible. So I don't think WP:G6 applies nor is this recently created for WP:R3. Fork99 (talk) 13:11, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

2-valued morphism

• 2-valued morphism2-valued morphism → Ultrafilter#Ultrafilter on a Boolean algebra  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Probably delete. The target is reasonable for 2-valued morphisms specifically in the category of Boolean algebras. I don't see any relevance to 2-valued morphisms generally, nor any reason to believe that as a search term or a link target it should be taken as understood that the category is Boolean algebras. It's true that Google searches currently give this meaning but I expect that's an artifact of the Wikipedia structure.

  This nomination lacks enough participants to establish consensus but there is no one opposing the deletion and it will be treated as an expired PROD thus will be deleted under WP:SOFTDELETE but this was PRODed before thus not eligible for soft deletion.

Dozens of redirects with minor spelling differences by blocked user. See other mass redirect discussions at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 September 9#Eu Commission v Hungary. ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 14:27, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

as a heads-up, massxfd can make the process of nomming multiple redirects at once a little easier, and avoid cluttering talk pages consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 14:37, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep most, as despite being made by a blocked editor a lot of these are uncontroversially reasonable spelling variations. It's trivial to find variation in hyphenation between "trans-saharan"/"sub-subsaharan" and "transsaharan"/"subsaharan" on Scholar and Google Books; redirects where this is the only difference are fine and are useful for both searches and internal linking. Variation between "Saharan" and "Sahara" also seems generally fine; eg. "trans-saharan slave trade" and "trans-sahara slave trade" both yield results on Google Books. Searching for "[the] Sahara slave trade" shows that the unprefixed "Sahara" is also plausible variation.

Delete redirects where the hyphen is replaced by a space, as I don't see much evidence that this is common in my external search results and this isn't conventional for English in general. Seems more like an SEO technique than plausible language.

Delete redirects which capitalise Sahara mid-word without a hyphen ("transSaharan", "subSaharan"). These are entirely unnecessary for searching (the search engine ignores case whenever possible and will redirect you even if no explicit redirect exists; try a search for TraNs-SaHaRan sLave trAde) and are worse than useless for linking as they're incorrect but appear in blue, making unintended use easier. I strongly suspect these titles reflect how sometimes hyphens get omitted in, eg, previews extracted from pages on Google Books, even when they're present on the actual page itself. This is something a machine would do. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 15:24, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

Physical map

• Physical mapPhysical map → Map#Map types and projections  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Ambiguous term. I thought of a paper map, incoming links are split between the genomics meaning and the cartographical meaning (a map of the physical territory rather than political borders). Delete or disambig? There's a dab page in the history. See also Political map, which I am not bundling but which is similarly fuzzy. Rusalkii (talk) 22:42, 26 August 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget - I'm pretty familiar with map terminology, because I just re-wrote the map article (GA, now going thru FAC). The term "physical map" is very rarely used, so it certainly does not deserve an article. Many important sources do not mention it at all:

• The Glossary of the Mapping Sciences published by American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing - has no mention of "physical map"
• The ESRI GIS dictionary - has no mention of "physical map"

So what does (did) the term "physical map" designate? The History of Cartography (vol 6 "20th century") does mention it twice on page 107, where it has "...a gradual shift of emphasis from the general political and physical maps to topical maps including more demographic and environmental themes ...". See also p 51. It is clear from the usage in this source that a physical map focuses on topography and the physical surface of the earth, rather than man-made features, particularly political boundaries. Google, FWIW, agrees with that assessment. The modern term for a map that focuses on the physical features is topographic map.

Therefore, the best thing to do is to redirect physical map to topographic map. Noleander (talk) 00:00, 27 August 2026 (UTC)

• Not sure. Noleander's analysis does a good job of analysing solid sources, but when we're talking redirects, we also have to support casual usage that can't be documented, and I suspect that in that setting, "physical map" is used in contrast to electronic mapping, comparable to "snail mail" versus e-mail. (If anyone would study such terminology, it would likely be folklorists and linguists, not cartographers.) Most people will be aware of the existence of topographic maps, but most people will probably not expect this redirect to refer to them. I say "not sure" only because I don't know where we'd cover this sense; Electronic map redirects to Map. Nyttend (talk) 19:42, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Seems like a rather strange target. Just because a city is not in Europe doesn't mean that there isn't a name in English. English exonyms provides some non-European examples of city names that are different in English. Lists of cities would be more general, including English names based on endonyms, though on the English Wikipedia, any lists of cities would be presumed to list city names in English.

The Zoid is not mentioned in the target, or anywhere else onwiki. We have Joannes Malder and Van Malder, both redirects to people whose articles spell the surname differently (Malderus and van Maldere, respectively).

My primary topic by Google hits is the Zoid, followed by assorted miscellany. There is also the unrelated wikt:malder.

• Refine all all except the one with "(JWST)" appended, which should be deleted to James Webb Space Telescope § Naming concerns, and preferably expand that section to mention these names. The naming of the telescope was a hot topic due to accusations that Webb was complicit in the Lavender Scare; Sally Ride and Harriet Tubman were put forward as alternatives after whom the telescope could be named, and Just Wonderful Space Telescope was subsequently invented as a backronym by those who objected to the naming. A little more detail can be found at James E. Webb § Controversy about telescope name, but the alternative names are not mentioned there either, and in any case the telescope's article would seem to be a more appropriate target than Webb. Rosbif73 (talk) 11:36, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

  But they're still not mentioned, so refining there is still a problem. I'm skeptical that they should be, either...it just feels like excessive minutiae that isn't all that vital to get the main point across. In fact, some (all?) of those were mentioned around the time of redirect creation, but subsequently removed, and I think for good reason. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 16:26, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

No mention of a Craig Tomashoff in the article. I did some research before nominating this and it does not seem like these two people are connected to one another. The article mentions Caragh being trans, however upon checking the sources, Craig's name does not appear to be mentioned anywhere. I also checked Google and did not find anymore information. Delete Gavetheman555 (talk) 16:00, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

Craig Tomashoff was Donley's deadname and what she went by most of her career. Here is her LinkedIn ("Caragh Donley Tomashoff") and her Facebook where she openly posts about coming out and her career. At the bottom of her op-ed with The Huffington Post (I Hid My True Identity For Decades. Here's What Happened When I Finally Revealed Myself At 63.), it states "She’s the author of The Can’t-idates: Running for President When Nobody Knows Your Name.", which a google search will show was written by "Craig Tomashoff" (see ). -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 16:09, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

This interview with her may also be helpful: "A few years ago, I learned that my biological dad had died before I was born but nobody ever told me. I grew up thinking the stepdad who raised me WAS my biological dad, and since he is the child of Russian immigrants, I just always assumed that made me Russian. However, after digging into all this information (it’ll all be in the book I’m trying to so…reassure me you’ll buy a copy to learn more), it turns out my real dad was from Irish stock. Hence, I wanted an Irish name and Caragh means “friend” or “beloved” in Gaelic. Plus, Donley is my real dad’s last name so I wanted to pay tribute to him that way as well." -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 16:21, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

• Either delete or mention in the target, readers will be as confused as nom especially given the last names differ as well. I haven't checked whether a mention is merited under WP:DEADNAME - if she went by it most of her career then it seems plausible, but as always we should lean towards excluding it if uncertain. Rusalkii (talk) 17:33, 20 September 2026 (UTC)
• What Rusalkii said. There's probably a good argument that the subject was notable pre-transition, but currently all of the sources are post-transition.

That's what I'm getting at. Shouldn't redirect to either one, because one isn't more important than the other. Nicochele (talk) 06:38, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

Ulr

• UlrUlr → Ullr  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
• ULRULR → Phenylpropanolamine  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not mentioned, though other articles like Ulrichite and Liberal-Republican Union mention these terms. Mathguy2718 (talk) 06:36, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

Also, Ulr is not a valid alternative spelling of the name Ullr. He can be called Ull (without the -r nominative case ending), but not Ulr. Delete that one. -- Supermorff (talk) 09:12, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

Disambiguate ULR. Could refer to the targets mentioned in nomination, as well as Université de La Rochelle or Accident management#Uninsured loss recovery. Katzrockso (talk) 04:11, 21 September 2026 (UTC)
