• Feroz Khan (singer) → List of Pakistani actors  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete. This person is not mentioned at target page. Natg 19 (talk) 19:57, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Wp:REDLINK if he's notable, and simply confusing and unhelpful if he's not as the target is not intended to be a list of non-notable actors. The exact same rationale also applies to all the other redirects to List of Pakistani actors and List of Pakistani actresses created by the same user, regardless of whether they're mentioned on the target page. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 09:47, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Natg 19: any objection if I add all those other redirects to this nomination too? 210.6.254.106 (talk) 09:48, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Counter-missionary → Proselytization and counter-proselytization of Jews  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Counter-Missionary → Proselytization and counter-proselytization of Jews  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Anti-missionary → Proselytization and counter-proselytization of Jews  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Anti-Missionary → Proselytization and counter-proselytization of Jews  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Although this was originally the article's title, it seems clearly suitable and misleading. Any group targeted by missionaries may have "counter-missionary" reactions, and anything opposed to missionaries could be called "anti-missionary". Unless opposition or reactions to missionaries is a topic we can address in general, these are better off red. --BDD (talk) 19:20, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete and salt both as this is an unhelpful long-standing joke. Deryck C. 12:48, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Cole's Law → Coleslaw  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Cole's law → Coleslaw  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete as a joke redirect. The coleslaw article has nothing to say about the joke. McGeddon (talk) 18:22, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 00:20, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep for the same reasons as last time. It's easier to watchlist and protect a redirect than to monitor a blank target. Rossami (talk) 00:52, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Rossami, I noticed that you made the same argument at the previous RfD discussion for "Cole's Law." What has happened in the past when this was a redlink? Did someone make a hoax article? -- Notecardforfree (talk) 01:37, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Per the deletion log, it was deleted before in November 2005 "per rfd vote," which would make it a redirect then too. Here's a diff of that discussion. -- Tavix ^(talk) 18:55, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nominator and Wp:R#D2 (confusing) and D8 (unlikely synonym). The previous RFD did not show particularly strong consensus either way, and anyway consensus can change. If someone re-creates it, {{db-repost}} or {{db-hoax}} it. If re-creation rises to the level of vandalism, Wp:SALT it. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 09:40, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, with 210. I'm not sure what Rossami was referring to, the redirect has been stable since 2007. It'd be more exciting to watch grass grow than this redirect. -- Tavix ^(talk) 18:43, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete and WP:SALT both titles. Not harmless joking; this redirect is misleading since there is no discussion of it at the target. There is a senate bill in California regarding evidence gathering in child sexual predator prosecutions which may be referred to as Cole's Law, but we don't have an article about it. Beyond that, there's no general agreement on the internet about what the supposedly jocular Cole's Law has to say about coleslaw. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 20:05, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikipedia:Personendatan → Wikipedia:Persondata  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This is a misspelled version of "Personendaten", the German term for persondata. With persondata deprecated, no incoming links, and three views in the past 60 days (what I'd call less than noise level), this should be deleted. BDD (talk) 16:27, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Rabbi yeshua bar abba → Barabbas  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I learned from the target article that some scholars believe Barabbas and Jesus to be the same person. That's fascinating, but as long as we treat Barabbas as a separate character, there's no indication that he was any sort of spiritual leader, let alone a rabbi. BDD (talk) 14:55, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. There was a Rabbi named Yehoshua bar Abba, but there is no evidence that he was also known as Barabbas. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 21:59, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• October, 1914 → Draft:December 1914  (links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The current target is in the draft namespace. This should redirect to October 1914. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 14:30, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I mistaken used up some of my Sandbox place as redirects so I figured I'll force a move on a redirect page to a draft page I'm working on. Not the greatest of protocols but I don't see anyone seriously affected by it. If Draft:Decemeber 1914 needs to be de-linked from October, 1914, I'm alright with that. I'm the first to admit I'm not an expert on all the functions of Wiki. Freeman1865 (talk) 14:00, 18 December 2014 (MST)

• Retarget to October 1914 as plausible misspelling. I'm fine with a housekeeping Speedy Delete given that this was simply an error on the creator's part --Lenticel ^(talk) 02:42, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
