Another case of an example of an online magazine being redirected to Online magazine. I would suggest deletion unless a duly sourced mention can be added to the target. signed, Rosguill talk 22:00, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy delete, not a hugely notable publication and we don't redirect names of publications to general wikipedia pages. → Lil-℧niquԐ1 - (Talk) - 08:37, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

Regrowing vegetable

- Regrowing vegetable → Regenerative agriculture (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I can see what the initial editor was getting at here, but I don't think this is a helpful redirect. "Regrowing vegetable" makes me think more of Vegetative reproduction or Cutting (plant). Given that the redirect term is also ungrammatical, I think that deletion is preferable to disambiguation. signed, Rosguill talk 21:58, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Rosguill, the topic is very important today for a lot of people. I prefer disambiguation to deletion. In the future, perhaps a full article (there is more than a book about it). Hope you can help. Best wishes.BoldLuis (talk) 23:06, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- BoldLuis, what exactly do you think the phrase
regrowing vegetable
means? signed, Rosguill talk 23:17, 17 May 2020 (UTC)- Can you say it?. BoldLuis (talk) 20:29, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- I think that it's an ungrammatical phrase with no single clear meaning. You're the one who thinks that this is a meaningful search term that could be a useful redirect. signed, Rosguill talk 21:21, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- Can you say it?. BoldLuis (talk) 20:29, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the target, delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 21:45, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. While a search on the Ace Attorney wiki showed me Ryūnosuke Naruhodō's name in the search field, but neither of these names are mentioned on his article, or any of the articles that appear in the search. Regards, SONIC678 01:09, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete, these are fan terms that have not caught on for a "what if Dai Gyakuten Saiban, a Japanese-only game set in the Meiji period, were localized to be set in the US with American characters like the other Ace Attorney games were" scenario.--AlexandraIDV 15:34, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Overly vague gaming term. I'd surmise this is the case in many games, including a number of prominent RPGs. But not being mentioned in Character class, it should probably be deleted to allow the search engine to do its job. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 20:37, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
Move without leaving a redirectto the same titles with the qualifier (Dungeons & Dragons) andrefine targetto Character class (Dungeons & Dragons)#Multiclassing. The concept is described in the target, and that will get readers to what they're looking for without impeding the search tool. Narky Blert (talk) 12:19, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the target, a Google Scholar search doesn't suggest that this term primarily refers to Ukrainian settlement in Kuban. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 20:23, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

- Delete, I also couldn't find anything about it on Wikipedia other than a reference over at Green Ukraine (other than which no articles link to this title). It is apparently a region, like the yellow and gray wedges, but we don't have Purple Ukraine. Regards, SONIC678 16:06, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the target, doesn't appear to have any use in reliable sources. I would suggest deletion unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 20:21, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - According to lolberts.com, "A lolbert is a derogatory and bigoted word used to demean and belittle market libertarians." However, this can't be verified in reliable sources. The only usages for this word in reliable sources I could find were as a surname and parts of names of organizations. Hog Farm (talk) 00:32, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

[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 speedy delete per WP:G5/WP:G7 as all editors involved with the article that have not been violating blocks are in agreement that deletion is appropriate. signed, Rosguill talk 22:38, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- It's Ma'am → Transphobia#Misgendering and exclusion (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I don't think that this unambiguously refers to misgendering, as it could also refer to Miss vs. Mrs. vs. Ma'am. Before being converted to a redirect, this was an article created by a now-blocked sockpuppet and converted to a redirect by Þjarkur, so I don't have any qualms about discussing deletion here as opposed to restoring the prior article and taking it to AfD. signed, Rosguill talk 21:24, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. The phrase does unambiguously refer to a particular meme (I can't imagine those looking for "Ma'am" writing this title), but having this redirect isn't really helpful since the target doesn't discuss that which a reader would be looking for. I had reinstated the redirect the original author had first created, but it's not a good one. (Could possibly be WP:G5'd?). – Thjarkur (talk) 22:24, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

- Comment: I made these. I added them as there was "Tramvia" (Catalan) and "Straßenbahn/Strassenbahn" (German). So I added Spanish, Chinese, Italian and Japanese. Hkbusfan (talk) 01:36, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

- Delete: I made these because I noticed Catalan (according to Google Translate) and German redirects existed, but I now understand that they were unnecessary. Should we delete those other ones too? Hkbusfan (talk) 01:10, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

These pages don't seem to get very many pageviews compared to their targets, possibly because of the questionably plausible misspelling of "national" (some of them being the results of pagemoves years ago)...not sure how useful they are now. Regards, SONIC678 20:22, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete all. In the case of the Vijayaba redirect, it was probably a courtesy to the page's creator/most recent editor so that they could find the page and not re-create it on the bad title. Enough time has passed that we don't need it for that purpose. —C.Fred (talk) 22:48, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep all for the usual reason: what is to be gained by deleting these redirects? — J947 [cont] 02:24, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
- Keep all The Nationa Register one was a move after a misspelling also. So maybe dropping an 'l' is not so unlikely? At any rate, I dont see how WP:RFD#DELETE is met, and these types of discussions take up more time than the benefit, if any, they provide.—Bagumba (talk) 08:52, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete all. Unambiguously created in error, useless clutter. Narky Blert (talk) 10:11, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete all, obvious misspellings - no need to perpetuate. Dan arndt (talk) 01:20, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete all. Wikipedia has about 6 mio articles, with an average of 20 characters (estimated from a few random articles) per title. If we had a redirect for every forgotten character in every title, this makes 120 mio redirects. Avoiding them is clearly a gain. So if there is no other reason than that a user could accidentally forget the 'l', the redirects should clearly be deleted. Presumably the wikipedia search engine already is smart enough to come up with the corrected title anyway, when given the title without 'l'. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 15:03, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

With the release of The Lion King (2019 film), this redirect isn't useful, as now there are two movies with that title. TheAwesomeHwyh 17:31, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- I will also note this redirect has existed since 2003, so careful consideration should definitely be taken before changing this redirect. TheAwesomeHwyh 17:32, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Unnecessary WP:EASTEREGG redirect. Meets WP:RfD#D10 as a redirect which could "plausibly be expanded into an article, where the target article contains virtually no information on the subject". The target article, in fact, contains zero information about the subject. None at all. While the titular article could, perhaps, be expanded with more information about the subject (the village), the correct title for such an article would simply be "Ballymacoda". Without the "village" suffix. It is possibly best to leave that as a red link. For now. Per WP:REDYES. To "encourage" someone to create the article. Right now, the redirect serves no purpose. Other than, perhaps, to obscure the fact that the intended article/content is "missing". Anyway, whatever the case about what might occur later, WP:RfD#D10 applies to the current redirect.... Guliolopez (talk) 17:11, 17 May 2020 (UTC) Guliolopez (talk) 17:11, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

- Lust of The Beatles Songs → List of songs recorded by the Beatles (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Delete. This is a clear typo, but it is no more or less plausible than for any other articles or redirects starting "List of..." (there are more than quarter of a million), yet this is the only one with a "Lust of" redirect. It got 11 hits last year which suggests it is being used, but not sufficiently significantly for such an obvious typo to be justified in my opinion. Thryduulf (talk) 16:14, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Unambiguously created in error; or, if RS can be found, to encourage article creation. Narky Blert (talk) 16:22, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Based on the history, the creation appears to have been intentional rather than in error. Thryduulf (talk) 16:25, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Already in use by the media and likely to become an article in 9 months. See here and other search results. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:21, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. While the word might already be in use, it's still a neologism, bordering on protologism, and doesn't appear anywhere on Wikipedia (other than this redirect and user:Coronababy13 whose only edit was to create their unrelated userpage, which I'm about to send to MfD, in 2014). We also don't currently have any content, that I've found, about the topic where it would make sense - unsurprising as we're at least 7-9 months away from any reliable information about any demographic trends. Deletion should though be without prejudice to recreation when we do have content if the term takes hold. Thryduulf (talk) 22:08, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Not mentioned either at the target or anywhere else in WP. A reader following this redirect will find precisely zero information, useful or otherwise. Narky Blert (talk) 10:18, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

These are closely related words that are frequently grouped together (eg: Template:Anime and manga, Category:Anime and manga fandom, Portal:Anime and manga), so it is plausible for them to be searched together in mainspace. -- Tavix (talk) 16:56, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

- Well, not about the flag, but we have New Swabia (never heard of it before!). There's no specific flag content there, aside from the flag itself. A REDLINK is reasonable, but I'd actually support keeping this and redirecting it to New Swabia since, if someone is searching for the flag of New Swabia, that's the only place it exists on the wiki, and they can at least see what it looks like. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 19:37, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- The lack of flag content is why I'm opposed to retargetting. If someone is looking for information about the flag of New Swabia they'll almost certainly have heard of and know a little about New Swabia (and if not they can easily search for it), they will be looking for information specifically about the flag. They will not though find what they are looking for on Wikipedia and we should not mislead them into thinking they will. Thryduulf (talk) 20:54, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

- Comment On the one hand, there does not appear to be anything called "M" that is associated with HDL or Mentor Graphics (doing a web search on "M" is problematic, so I make have missed something.) The only "M" language I know of is MUMPS.

- The result of the discussion was retarget to Přibyslavice. Reasonable arguments have been made that most uses of this spelling are likely to refer to Kingdom Come: Deliverance's setting, but other reasonable arguments are made that it's a very plausible Anglicisation of Přibyslavice, of which there are several real-life towns named as such, one of which the game's setting was based on. Given there's minimal discussion of this in the video game's section, there's a rough consensus here that retargeting to the disambiguation page at Přibyslavice is the option least likely to confuse the majority of readers, as that's where all these options are mentioned. ~ mazca talk 15:00, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
- Pribyslavitz → Přibyslavice (Prague-East District) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Mbdfar has asserted that Pribyslavitz is the anglicized term from the video game to refer to this specific village of Přibyslavice. Those searching for the real life analog would use this name
. I cannot find any evidence online, on Wikipedia or on Google Scholar that this is the case. If sources backing up this interpretation, I would suggest either redirecting to Kingdom Come: Deliverance, or possibly deletion, as it does not appear to currently be mentioned at that target. signed, Rosguill talk 20:18, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Rosguill, I'll admit, this is a tough one to prove. All I can say is that it is common for the German words for Czech locations often switch the -ice ending for itz, (see German words for Czech locations). Hence, Přibyslavice becomes Pribyslavitz. I was going off of the location in the game (see gameplay map) where it is referred to as Pribyslavitz. If this is insubstantial, I would support a redirect to Přibyslavice as it could theoretically be used for any location of this name. Mbdfar (talk) 21:27, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. German WP has two articles on places called de:Přibyslavice, and neither has this German exonym (rather, Přibyslavice/Przibislawitz and Pribislaw/Přibislawitz). Czech WP has articles on four places, cs:Přibyslavice, and gives German exonyms for three of them: Przibislawitz/Pschibislawitz, Pribislaw and Pschibislawitz. Neither German nor Czech WP knows any Pribyslavitz. Přibyslavice (Prague-East District) (no equivalent in German or Czech) asserts that the village is called Pribyslavitz in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Google searches show that that game takes place in Pribyslavitz, which was razed in 1390 or 1391; but I could find nothing to connect it with Přibyslavice (Prague-East District) or anywhere else, and it may be fictional. That is all too tenuous to keep this redirect. Narky Blert (talk) 08:47, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
Keepper confirmation from game designer Dan Vávra (see tweet). To reiterate, the majority of people looking for this location would search the term 'Pribyslavitz' as used in the American version of the video game. Mbdfar (talk) 00:00, 11 May 2020 (UTC)- Per that confirmation, I wonder whether the better target may not still be Kingdom Come: Deliverance, as it seems like the game is the only place this spelling is used per Narky's comment above. Anyone further interested in the inspiration for the location can follow links from that page to Přibyslavice (Prague-East District) signed, Rosguill talk 00:32, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Rosguill, I think keeping the more specific redirect makes sense. Narky Blert also noted that this is the only known location be called this term. If people are using the search bar to find this village, I think it would be more user friendly to keep the redirect as it is. I don't see the benefit to having people scrolling to find the article link on the KCD page. Mbdfar (talk) 00:55, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Mbdfar, I'm not seeing why we should assume that they're searching for the village to find the real-life equivalent, rather than information about it related to the game itself. If we point the search term to Kingdom_Come:_Deliverance#Setting, then they won't need to scroll at all. signed, Rosguill talk 01:15, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Rosguill, that is a valid point. I suppose I was projecting my own interests a bit. If you believe it to be the best course of action, I support your idea of a retarget to Kingdom_Come:_Deliverance#Setting. I appreciate the discussion. Mbdfar (talk) 01:33, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

- Retarget to Přibyslavice. I buy the argument that Pribyslavitz is a possible anglicization of Přibyslavice, and would be used to find the real-world village that the video game version is based on. However, if this is a valid anglicization, it would be valid for any of the Přibyslavices. If this was explained at Kingdom Come: Deliverance, I'd be fine with a retarget there, but as it stands, it would be too much of an Easter egg for my liking. -- Tavix (talk) 01:30, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
- First choice Kingdom_Come:_Deliverance#Setting, second choice Přibyslavice (disambiguation). We have established in this discussion so far that the only notable use of the exact spelling "Pribyslavitz" is in the video game, but the video game location is in turn based on the real place in Prague. I accept the argument that "Pribyslavitz" is a plausible Anglicization of Přibyslavice, but the combined choice of retaining the Y, converting the Ř into R, and parsing CE as TZ make this rather idiosyncratic and only works in English. Until we see any resident of any of the Přibyslavice start calling their village Pribyslavitz, I think the video game location is the primary topic. Deryck C. 17:21, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
- Retarget to Přibyslavice per Tavix. Given that the town only gets a single mention in the video game article, with minimal context, this makes the most sense to me. --BDD (talk) 18:42, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

). — MarkH21talk 18:19, 9 May 2020 (UTC) - Disambiguate per above.CrazyBoy826 (talk) 18:24, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: In both meanings, "V" is an arbitrary variable name. Although vector spaces are favorably named "V", other names are used as well (e.g. "W"). We wouldn't have a direct of (a+b)^2 and (x+y)^2 and ... to binomial theorem, either. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 14:24, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: In both meanings this is the * that is meaningful, not the whole expression. In fact, both meanings, are listed in * (but surprisingly none in * (disambiguation)). Having this redirect is exactly the same as having a redirect for yellow tulip because many tulips are yellow (fortunately, this redirect does not exist). D.Lazard (talk) 14:58, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

This appears to just be the name of a documentary they made- not sure if this redirect is necessary. TheAwesomeHwyh 19:45, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
Delete- as stated, it appears to have been a one-off documentary, but looking at the history of the article it looks like it just listed the '10 things' rather than any information about the actual documentary, so can't be restored as a stub. It's not particularly useful as it stands. Bob talk 23:05, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Actually, might be more useful as a redirect to Michael Mosley (broadcaster), in which case it's not really doing any harm. Bob talk 23:07, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

- Delete; basically no useful information about it at either possible target. I don't see any hypothetical reader that would particularly be helped by being sent to either. ~ mazca talk 23:31, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Not mentioned at the target, internet searches just returned results for contemporary people with this name. Delete unless a justification can be provided. signed, Rosguill talk 20:44, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Comment This is a transliteration of "李长庚", which is an alternative name for the target according to Baidu Baike (non-RS). zh:李長庚 exists, but is about a general who lived between 1752 - 1807. Other people with this name who prominently appear in search results include a musician and a general manager for a financial firm in Taiwan. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 23:29, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

- Given the above comment about Baidu Baike using this spelling, I'm fine with this being closed as no consensus if no one else has anything to add before then. signed, Rosguill talk 22:56, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
