The result of the discussion was speedy deleted by DGG. (non-admin closure) -- Tavix (talk) 08:41, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It does not look like he ever went by these names, making them very unlikely search terms only Neelix would find useful. Legacypac (talk) 22:06, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

CSD'd as an old implausible Neelix redirect. --Rubbish computer (Merry Christmas!: ...And a Happy New Year!) 00:27, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Another fake Neelix word. How would someone use this in a sentence? Legacypac (talk) 22:02, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That's classicistically awesome. Legacypac (talk) 23:55, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Party-systems

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was delete all. This is an interesting closure: Almost all nominated items have been challenged, but all items have a majority favouring deletion. "Party-system" is borderline, but it has been pointed out that search engines treat hyphens as equivalent to spacebars, so the general conclusion is that this does not help readers either. Deryck C. 23:28, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Party systemic makes no sense for redirect. No one talks about a party system this way. Sticking two words together not correct either. Neelix redirects. Legacypac (talk) 21:52, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hypenated ones do not aid search at all. Search engines ignore the hyphen - try it on site or Google. No value in keeping incorrect variations like this. Legacypac (talk) 18:12, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Made up word by Neelix. Best source is http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Partyistic which has nothing to do with the current target and it pretty stupid Legacypac (talk) 21:50, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Fume. --BDD (talk) 22:11, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe an X:Y. Target is not correct. Means 1. emit gas, smoke, or vapor. or 2. feel, show, or express great anger. Legacypac (talk) 21:42, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hissy

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was retarget to tantrum. All participants in this discussion agree that this redirect should be changed, with a slight majority favouring retargeting to tantrum. Deryck C. 23:24, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear what this refers to. Nothing like "Hissy" is mentioned at the target article, nor was it when the redirect was created. The creator was indef'd. I'm not sure why. --BDD (talk) 17:47, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@BDD: The user was ARBCOM blocked and is globally blocked; the last block on enwiki that wasn't to change the settings of the same block read "Disruptive editing: Rapid creation of 4 to 6 inappropriate pages per minute for extended time - although stopped now, this may be indicative that user may be using automated tools to create pages, or acct compromise". --Rubbish computer (Merry Christmas!: ...And a Happy New Year!) 01:15, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sunshade

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was disambiguate. Deryck C. 23:21, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'd guess that an overwhelming majority (probably 100%) of people searching for Sunshade are expecting an article about parasols, not a page of sci-fi speculation about controlling the Earth's temperature by means of launching 16 trillion satellites to blot out the sun.  ‑ Iridescent 17:24, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It matches what most Wikipedians would think of though. Legacypac (talk) 18:13, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Personally, I think of a certain type of awning. (There is a plural version as well. Since they should go to the same place, I've added it.) -- Tavix (talk) 21:06, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • It could also legitimately refer to those big sheets of cardboard you block car windows with in hot climates. Given that all the legitimate variations I can think of are variants of "device to keep cool", retargeting to Shade (shadow) would probably be the most sensible option, loath as I am to point readers to an article so poor. ‑ Iridescent 21:11, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tricon Global Restaurants Incorporated

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was keep. --BDD (talk) 21:49, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All incorrectly spelled, and redirects differentiated by slight punctuation differences are ignored by search engines. Partial title matches clutter up search too. Just clean them out. Legacypac (talk) 15:33, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep all. These aren't misspelled; they are plausible search variations of "Inc. --> Incorporated", as well as variations of the titles with/without punctuation. Thus, these are all plausible search terms. Steel1943 (talk) 17:06, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. These are not all the redirects to the target, just the ones I deemed redundent as minor variations that make search harder. All the Yum ones are misspellings as they lack the ! which is an important part of the name. Legacypac (talk) 17:38, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strongly disagree with the second sentence. The exclamation point arguably fails MOS:TM. People don't regularly yell when they say "Yum Brands". --BDD (talk) 17:57, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pharisaists

[edit]
The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was keep, keep, and delete, respectively. --BDD (talk) 21:30, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pharisæus is not an English word. Pharisaist is barely an English word, excessively obscure. Pharisaists is even more obscure (under 400 ghits) and supposed meaning is unclear from my searches. Neelix specials. Legacypac (talk) 14:59, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Pharisæus, and keep the others. "Pharisaism" is relatively commonly encountered (see the creator's comment), and Pharisaist(s) would be a reasonable form of the same title, but I'm not particularly sure what "Pharisæus" even is, aside from the Latin meaning that we ought to ignore because the Pharisees aren't and weren't a group particularly associated with the Romans or the Latin language. Nyttend (talk) 02:08, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was withdrawn. Steel1943 (talk) 02:05, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Seems misleading, especially since the series Fullmetal Alchemist is not on disambiguation page FMA and the series isn't labeled by that acronym. Steel1943 (talk) 05:31, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • @BDD: I get what you are implying here. On a related note, after I realized what I struck out in my nomination statement, I wanted to withdraw this nomination since I am now rather neutral, but I cannot since there is a "delete" vote present.

The result of the discussion was delete. The general rule is that we don't keep redirects from related concepts that aren't mentioned in the target at all. Deryck C. 23:20, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Manifestation of God. --BDD (talk) 21:28, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

An English translation of a heathen king's name is not the obvious place to direct this phrase. Manifestation of God is one possible target, but God manifest is a theme in the Bible and a direct reference to Jesus Christ. Delete as ambiguous or target to Names and titles of Jesus in the New Testament where the Biblical idea should be covered but is not currently. Legacypac (talk) 16:06, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
