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.

Ned Mandingo

• Ned Mandingo → Bubba the Love Sponge  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete. This is an unmentioned redirect that requires some explanation at the target in order to be helpful. This is a persona known for prank calls and parody songs that is apparently "frequently associated with" the radio show. I am unable to find reliable sources that would support adding content to the target. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 12:07, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

I don't know much about this show but there's a YouTube playlist with over 100 Ned Mandingo videos associated with Bubba, as well as Apple Music and an IMDB page where Ned is a featured credit for a Bubba related project. I don't see why this redirect is unneeded Avienby (talk) 12:13, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

Gigaleak

• Gigaleak → Nintendo data leak  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Move "gigaleak" to redirect to Internet leak as it has become a more generalized term for huge leaks. Change this redirect to "Nintendo gigaleak". Avienby (talk) 11:01, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

Most recently the term "gigaleak" was used for a Cartoon Network asset leak, and using the term in History of Cartoon Network has led to arguing since the redirect is for the Nintendo gigaleak. However, sources listed, especially Gizmodo, refer to it as a gigaleak Avienby (talk) 11:05, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

If there's now two possible terms for Gigaleak, neither being used in the respective page title but mentioned in prose, then the solution is to make the redirect page a disambiguation page for the two possible terms. Masem (t) 11:20, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

what happens if a third major "gigaleak" occurs? I don't disagree with this, I'm just wondering about whether gigaleak will be a disambiguation in tbe future or a full fledged article once enough cases occur. For now though, I agree with disambiguation. Avienby (talk) 11:27, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

Red Hat High

• Red Hat High → Red Hat  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

No information about this summer camp for kids, at the target or anywhere else on enwiki. This was an unsourced stub from 2006 that lasted about 2 months before it was PRODed and merged. And the merged content removed within 2 months as part of a cleanup. Delete, and no need to retain the pre-redirect content. Jay 09:17, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

• コロナ → COVID-19 pandemic in Japan  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This may also refer to Toyota Corona, which is also connected to Japan and this specific katakana. Note that ja:コロナ refers to Stellar corona. Mathguy2718 (talk) 03:40, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

• (Creator) Good catch. Delete and let the search engine handle the query. Interestingly, the hatnote on ja:コロナ does not link to ja:トヨタ・コロナ (Toyota Corona). feminist🩸 (talk) 08:50, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

  Search results aren't that helpful because the majority of uses on English Wikipedia are in reference titles Traumnovelle (talk) 09:04, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

• (edit conflict) Retarget to corona dab page, as there are at least two relevant Japan-related targets. Covid-19 response is likely the more primary topic over the Toyota, but considering jawiki's target, I think this a case of the term being too general to determine a primary. Search results wouldn't be very helpful if the redirect were deleted, as the word appears in the references of many pages. --Crimson Bleeding SouIIs (talk) 09:11, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

• Comment: Tagged redirect since it wasn't tagged by the nom. CycloneYoris ^talk! 00:09, 21 October 2026 (UTC)
• Delete—US Highway 8 has never been designated in Montana, nor was it ever proposed to be in that state. There is no mention of Montana in the article that is a target for the redirect, thus I find it odd that this redirect was ever created. Without some rational basis, it should be deleted.

Ariana (singer)

• Ariana (singer) → Ariana Grande  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Ariana Grande is not known mononymously. Either redirect to Ariana (name), or plain outright delete as an implausible search term, and I personally lean to delete as there is no good anchor for the redirect at Ariana (name). Similar discussions: here, and here. Oh, and same target, but not quite similar discussion as it was about a shorter name, but here is another similar discussion. Servite et contribuere (talk) 10:54, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

This kind of redirect is the type that I wouldn't recommend creating, but since it already exists, it's not worth the cost of deleting, or even talking about. WhatamIdoing (talk) 22:08, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, BDD (talk) 15:40, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

• Hmmm. There are other people named Ariana who are singers, but there is also another Trump (president) (Clifford Trump, former president of Idaho State University). Ariana Grande is without a doubt the most prominent singer with the given name Ariana. I say keep because it does appear that her fans affectionately call her by her first name, even if she isn't widely known mononymously. — An anonymous username, not my real name 20:33, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

Breeding ground

• Breeding ground → Habitat  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

The word "breeding" appears nowhere in the target except for the hatnote. Note Breeding Ground (band) exists and is WP:MISPLACED * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 15:28, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

• The lack of a mention does seem like an issue. We have Spawning#Spawning grounds, though that's limited to aquatic animals. Best we can say for Habitat is the mention of supporting species reproduction. I'd like to represent the biological concept somehow; the band looks somewhat obscure. --BDD (talk) 15:45, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

  The biological concept is undoubtedly the primary topic. I wouldn't object to moving Breeding Ground (band) to Breeding Ground, but would object to redirecting the lowercase breeding ground there. Though WP:PRIMARYRED is concerned with disambiguation pages, "[t]he existing article is not automatically the primary topic nor is there automatically no primary topic" is still relevant here. The band should not be treated as though it is the primary topic for breeding ground just because it exists and an article about the biological concept does not. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 16:48, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete as return to red, unless someone volunteers to add substantial content before this RfD closes. This is a surprising gap in Wikipedia's coverage. The current target only mentions reproduction twice, one them being irrelevant as it pertains to microbes (which don't have breeding grounds). – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 16:51, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

Retarget. I am open to turning this page into a soft redirect to a Wiktionary definition, since the term "breeding ground" is also used idiomatically. AlphaBeta135 talk 17:18, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

The existence of a soft redirect would discourage the creation of an article or section to fill the coverage gap. The biological/ecological concept is certainly notable. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 17:24, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete to encourage creation. We should absolutely give priority to encyclopedic concepts over idioms (there may be overlap between the two at times, but definitely not here). — An anonymous username, not my real name 20:35, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

Donald Trum

• Donald Trum → Donald Trump  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 February 8 § Donald Trum – no consensus
• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 July 9 § Donald Trimp – keep
• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 January 23 § San Francisc – keep
• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2026 October 12 § Barack Obam – keep

Unneeded redirect. Only one letter off from target. If this redirect did not exist, typing it into the search bar would result in the first search suggestion being the target. International Fujita scale (talk) 21:17, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete unnatural. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:47, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep per the arguments in the previous RfDs. Redirects that only save one click are less helpful than most, but still helpful when used 600 times a year. It's only harmful to the extent that people keep nominating it at RfD. J947 ‡ ^edits 23:09, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

  If you'd stop showing up to oppose deletion, then it would stop getting nominated at RFD...problem solved. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 21:13, 3 October 2026 (UTC)

  Nah this redirect naturally leans no consensus keep so if I !vote keep I'm simply expediting a foregone conclusion. :-) J947 ‡ ^edits 06:51, 4 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep: Nothing has changed since the last RFD, which found consenus to keep. Several editors in that discussion found this redirect useful, so I'm against deleting it unless someone can demonstrate a harm it's doing. I agree with J947 that the page views are nontrivial. Chess enjoyer (talk) 00:00, 3 October 2026 (UTC)
• Delet random end-letter deletion, the same type of which can be done to any of our millions of other articles (and countless more other redirects). This holds no particular affinity to the target, and the search feature already suggests the correct article to the wayward typist. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 07:00, 3 October 2026 (UTC)
• Delete This is (at best) a lazy misspelling, not really a likely search. Slatersteven (talk) 13:11, 5 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete. This is not a likely term that could be misspelled as Trump's name is well-known from media reporting. Qwerty123M (talk) 10:56, 12 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep per WP:R#K5. Readers objectively do use it. This has >9,500 total all-time views with a daily average of 2 a day. Google search results also provide examples of this appearing off-Wikipedia. (eg. VTV9 headline: Trung Quốc đón trọng thể Tổng thống Mỹ Donald Trum, Világgazdaság article: ...újdonság számára Donald Trum bejelentése...) I don't necessarily support creating other end-letter deletion redirects, but I also see no strong case for deleting this one given it gets good traffic. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 16:32, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

Delete as there are no such sections and no information about Minefield at the target. There is an unsourced mention at Cherrypal, a computer company, but that cannot be a target.

The creator of MineField Browser kept claiming it was a browser, despite opposition at his talk page, and after it was BLAR'ed, recreated it as Mozilla Minefield, which was also immediately BLAR'ed.

First presidency of Nicolás Maduro

• First presidency of Nicolás Maduro → Presidency of Nicolás Maduro  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This title and the title above target the same title, but for potential perceived trainwreck purposes, I've nominated them separately so as for it to be judged in its own right. Checking through the page history of the target, it seems like there were conflicting, disputable tile to best describe the article under the current title target. What do you the community think? Intrisit (talk) 19:00, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep, the target does describe Nicolás Maduro's presidency/ies(?) and no other issues have been presented. This is not the correct forum to discuss the title of the target (that would be the talk page (informally) or WP:RM (formally)). -- Tavix ^(talk) 16:46, 14 October 2026 (UTC)
• Weak keep The idea that Maduro had multiple presidencies does seem unusual to me. If someone holds a presidency continuously, even in changing circumstances like Maduro's, I'd call that a single presidency. George W. Bush or Barack Obama, for example—you could discuss their second terms, but not second presidencies. Chester A. Arthur or Donald Trump, yes, in that case they had second terms, which were also their second presidencies.

That said, the target article is framed as there being a first and second presidency, and Second presidency of Nicolás MaduroSecond presidency of Nicolás Maduro also redirects there. At a quick glance, this might represent WP:OR which we'd want to address, but the redirect has to follow the content, not the other way around. --BDD (talk) 21:04, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

I could not find any reliable sources to suggest that I-694 ever existed in planning. The only source I could find was a Kurumi page, which is most likely a dubious self-published source. The FRR&P page also mentions "I-694", but the only reference the author provides is a Wikipedia article on Lake Shore Drive (2018 iteration). The Wikipedia article at the time suggested that "I-694" was the successor of I-494, but the AASHO minute in July 1966 (page 11) states that "The former location [of I-494] along the Lake Shore Drive is to be abandoned) [sic] as a portion of the Interstate System". I suspected that I-694 never existed at all, even when the upgrade was planned, so I removed mentions of I-694 in articles like Lake Shore Drive, Stony Island Avenue, and Crosstown Expressway (Chicago).

The Herekino Forest is to the north of Herekino as per the article, but this isn't a helpful redirect with similar descriptions at Ahipara and Pukepoto. Suggest deletion in absence of any suitable target. Traumnovelle (talk) 21:47, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to Northland Conservation Park. It is part of that park & mentioned in the list of forests in the article. Nurg (talk) 06:53, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

  So there are actually two forests with this name... one west of Manukau North that is a commercial forest that is leased by a Maori trust and the Herekino Forest conservation park you mentioned to the west

  The retarget is a good suggestion, although I'm now unsure what to do given that there are two forests here. I feel a conservation forest is the more likely target than a commercial one but the commercial one has multiple archaeological reports on it. Traumnovelle (talk) 07:07, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

  I can't readily find anything on the web about a commercial forest called Herekino Forest. In any event, it doesn't seem to be mentioned in any WP article. So we can retarget to Northland Conservation Park for now and reconsider if the commercial forest ever comes up in an article. Nurg (talk) 09:56, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Terms of use

• Wikipedia:Terms of use → wmf:Policy:Terms of Use  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 
• Wikipedia:Privacy policy → wmf:Privacy policy  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Disambiguate; unless a better alternative can be found or consensus is established to remove the hatnotes and see also sections (the latter not necessarily being a great idea). Redirects, including soft redirects, do not contain any content. Link boxes are the exception because they are not content but navigational redirect aids in and of themselves. WP:TOU currently disambuguates between Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines (in the hatnote), wmf:Policy:Terms of Use (the target of the soft redirect), and Wikipedia:Wikimedia policy (listed in the see also). WP:PRIV also does this in regard to two pages. Given the prominence of these pages, it is not a good to provide a poor example of a soft redirect (which can be an arcane subject of understanding) to so many (be it they seasoned or freshly minted). TOU, for example existed as non-redirect from 2004-2014, a proper soft redirect from 2014-2016, and was finally distorted in late 2016. Thus, while a disambiguation page (similar to e.g. WP:WMP) is not a perfect solution, it is an improvement. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 02:06, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

Note: An announcement of this discussion has been left at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Redirect. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 02:29, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

• This is an odd one but your suggestion to disambiguate makes sense although I'm curious what others think. Assuming these would be combined on a single dab page, what would be the appropriate title? The little 'Privacy policy' link at the bottom of the screen links to wmf:Privacy policy, for what it's worth. Also, WP:PRIVACYWP:PRIVACY is a redirect to Wikipedia:Harassment#Posting of personal information and WP:BLPPRIVACYWP:BLPPRIVACY targets Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons#Privacy of personal information and using primary sources. These should be included on a dab page. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 18:30, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Myceteae: I had imagined two separate technical 'disambiguation' pages, viz. Wikipedia:Terms of use & Wikipedia:Privacy policy. Whatever anyone finds appropriate to list on them is fine, such as WP:BLPPRIVACYWP:BLPPRIVACY & WP:PRIVACYWP:PRIVACY which you mention. They could even be converted to short information pages of sorts (or list, set index, etc.) if desired. I suppose my argument at its core is that these cease to be redirects. A redirect should not contain a see also section, hatnote, etc. (i.e. any form of disambuguating or other content); soft redirects are a technical solution applied when hard redirects are not able (intentionally or not software-wise) to function, but are still bound by the conventions of hard redirects (that is, no one would argue for content of any kind on a hard redirect—outside of an rcat or category which are entirely different beasts). If these are to remain as soft redirects, then the hatnotes, see also sections, etc. should be removed. Linkboxes or historical tags (the inclusion limit) are sometimes present—e.g. Wikipedia:Ambassador Program & WP:VAIN—as navigational relics and due to deprecation respectively. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 22:25, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

  I agree these should not be redirects. The set up you suggest is reasonable; an alternative for the privacy policy(ies) page might be Wikipedia:PRIVACY (disambiguation), with Wikipedia:Privacy policy redirected there. The PRIVACY/Privacy policy dab page should also list the historical page Wikipedia:Privacy and, possibly under 'See also', the dab page Wikipedia:Private correspondence. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 09:08, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

• I find disambiguation rather silly. I don't see the point of marking (Tag: Disambiguation links added) to every edit that links to the terms of use and privacy policy Wikipedia pages. This statement refers to more than those two pages, but also any other soft redirects converted into "disambiguation pages", for example Wikipedia:Trolling where certain talk pages of politicians get tagged as disambiguation links added. Unhelpful "disambiguating" clutters recent changes pages filtered with the disambiguation links tag, and marking former soft redirects that have "See also" content or hatnotes as disambiguation pages isn't helping anyone who patrols the addition of disambiguation links. Mathguy2718 (talk) 15:46, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
• Just noting (after pondering) that perhaps a good solution would be to purify the soft redirects (i.e. leave just the soft redirect template on the pages by removing any hat notes, see also sections, etc.). {{Legal policy}} could remain, or it could be converted to {{shortcut}} (and Category:Wikipedia policies, Category:Wikipedia legal policies, or both could be retained manually if desired).— Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 06:11, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Godsy, I guess the question is: Do we think the pseudo-dab setup is helpful? In other words, are readers who type or click one of these reasonably likely to expect to find a different policy/page than the redirect target? Or maybe readers don't know what they are looking for but are wondering if we have a terms of use or privacy policy. The likelihood that some disambiguation is helpful seems high to me but I don't know how people actually end up on these pages or what they expect. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 19:43, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete. WP:PTOPIC states that a topic is primary with respect to usage if it is more likely than all the other topics combined (emph. added). Looking at everything listed at Jojo and its Massviews analysis (latest 90d), it seems unlikely. This could be the possessive form of so many of the entries at Jojo, especially since the redirect does not use the capitalisation JoJo, which would narrow the list of relevant titles. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 17:46, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

Delete Too vague, also could be WP:SURPRISING for people searching for a list of, well, physical stands. ~2026-48129-52 (talk) 15:27, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

Delete as hopelessly vague. Stand is a disambiguation page; it has no primary topic, so it would be inappropriate to use this as the descriptive title of a WP:stand-alone list.

Stand § Objects is also a "list of stands", using the more common sense of the word. However, I don't think we should redirect there as it's section of a disambiguation, not a list article, so that would be misleading to both readers and editors regarding the format of the target (the target is not intended to be a stand-alone list; it follows different guidelines).

Also worth noting the section the redirect currently points to does not exist. Wikipedia seems to not have a list of "stands" in the JJBA sense anymore. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 18:08, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete - this would be fairly-self explanatory if there actually were a list of Stands in JoJo at the target, but there is not, and adding one would be undue weight towards in-universe elements/plot summary.

  Chamone and cha'mone are both used at Bo' Selecta!, and clips from the show on YouTube also use "ch" spellings. The show may have contributed to the popularity of these spellings.

  However, Chamone is also an unrelated surname so traffic to that redirect may be from mixed sources. Wikipedia doesn't appear to have any articles about people with this surname, but there are few mentions in articles (eg. 9 Horses mentions someone called "Rafael Chamone") – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:23, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

FUSE ZFS port for Linux

There is no mention of "FUSE ZFS", "port", or "Linux" at the target. In addition, the target is a broken section link. Mathguy2718 (talk) 18:52, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

• And Oracle ZFS refers to Oracle's proprietary version, which would only be available for Linux if Oracle had ported it. Most ports are based on the open-sourced OpenSolaris version, so ZFS would be a better target, although it also mentions FUSE only in the infobox and one table and doesn't mention any Linux port in any detail. But no page refers to this, so it's probably there just in case anybody searches Wikipedia for information about a FUSE-based port of ZFS to Linux, in which case just throwing them at the ZFS page would suffice.

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

For the same reason as Handegg. Candidyeoman55 (talk) 12:29, 28 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)

  On further thought, target both to Handeck and add a hatnote linking to wikt:hand-egg – unless a mention of the slang term is added somewhere, in which case target that mention. Rosbif73 (talk) 14:54, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Please merge this and the discussion below. Candidyeoman55 (talk) 16:58, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

The rationale for these is not quite the same as for Handegg (one word), so I think it's preferable to keep the discussions separate. Rosbif73 (talk) 14:54, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

• Soft redirect to Wiktionary. As far as I know, no sources use the spellings "Hand Egg" or "Hand-egg" for the village in Switzerland. I think these spellings are only used for the joke about different kinds of football. But American football isn't a good target either – if a reader is trying to understand what the term "Hand Egg" means, the American football article doesn't adequately answer the question; instead the reader is likely to think they've ended up at that page by mistake. —Mx.

There has to be coherent criteria for such a redirect otherwise we could be awash with non-neutral redirects. We wouldn't be best pleased if somebody made a load of redirects called "[Politician] the Shithead" so we need a way to separate justifiable redirects from ones like that. The best solution for those who want to keep the redirect is to find an RS source discussing, or at least using, the name and add it to the article. Maybe add a short section for Epithets and cover various notable things he is known as?

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-saharan" 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)

Delete all relating to "Sub Saharan" (too lazy to list all, just spent a lot of time writing elsewhere): there were multiple slave trades south of the Sahara desert which could be discussed, including (arguably) the Atlantic Slave Trade, so the use of that namespace specifically for the one slave trade noted for crossing the Sahara satisfies confusion under WP:RDELETE..

@Scyrme: What is your opinion on the "Sub" redirects, as these arguments came after your !vote? Also, was sub-subsaharan a typo for sub-saharan? Jay 20:15, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Since sub-Saharan slave trade isn't nominated and currently redirects to trans-Saharan slave trade, it doesn't make sense to delete its reasonable variations here. 9ninety (talk) 10:01, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

@Jay: Yes, it was a typo. I agree with 9ninety. I'll also add:

Regarding there being multiple slave trades, sure there were many local slave trades in sub-Saharan Africa, but these redirect titles refer to the whole region implying a search for the wider network of slave trading.

Practically speaking, it was clear that variations on "sub-Saharan slave trade" were being used in (at least most of) the results on Books/Scholar to refer to the trading of sub-Saharan Africans as part of the trans-Saharan slave trade.

If HiddenHistoryPedia has access to contrary sources, then it would make sense to start a separate nomination focusing specifically on sub-Saharan slave trade and its variations, after all the implausible variations have been weeded out to keep the discussion from being derailed. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:25, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

Keep. There is no other marae called Te Iringa; perhaps you are confusing this with the wharenui called Te Iringa at Terere Marae on the outskirts of Ōpōtiki? Moreover, Kaikohe is the nearest township to Te Iringa Marae (less than 5 km drive from the marae to the edge of town, according to Google Maps) but you recently removed mention of Te Iringa Marae from the Kaikohe article, and reverted my edit when I reverted your removal. It seems perfectly reasonable to me that Te Iringa Marae should be mentioned on the Kaikohe page, given its proximity to the town, along with the other two marae listed. As there is no other marae of the same name and hence no ambiguity, the redirect should be kept. Paora (talk) 10:21, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

In that case it should be retargeted to list of marae in the Northland Region where it is mentioned.

>It seems perfectly reasonable to me that Te Iringa Marae should be mentioned on the Kaikohe page, given its proximity to the town, along with the other two marae listed

2020 UK general election

• 2020 UK general election → Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011#2017 general election  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This redirect was created in 2015 when it was thought that the next UK election would be in 2020 under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011, but an early election was called in 2017, so that an election was no longer expected in 2020. There was then a discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2017 May 2#2020 UK general election, in which it was decided to retarget this redirect to Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011#2017 general election, because that section effectively explained why there was no longer to be an election in 2020. However, the target article has been extensively rewritten since the repeal of this Act in 2022, and the section in question no longer exists. Moreover, it is no longer the case that anyone is going to be wondering why there will not be an election in 2020, since that date has long passed without an election. It seems merely confusing having a reference coming up to a 2020 election in the search bar when there was no such election, and I cannot see what useful purpose this now serves. I would therefore propose deleting this redirect. Dionysodorus (talk | contribs) 12:00, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

Metaspriggiidae

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

"Metaspriggiidae" appears to be a hoax added to the Metaspriggina article by an IP user in 2013 . It has no basis in any scientific literature whatsoever as far as I can tell (I checked the original 1993 paper and found no mention of it), any of the (sparse) references to it on the internet appears to be WP:CITOGENESIS based on the Wikipedia article Hemiauchenia (talk) 00:05, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

To add to this, I can also confirm this. I've had a look through the online library I have access to (outside of Google Scholar and Wiki Library), and there are no recorded mentions of it there either. Even the official Burgess Shale website (run by the Royal Ontario Museum) lists Metaspriggina as "Unranked clade", which cites the 2008 redescription by Simon Conway Morris, who only assigns Metaspriggina tentatively to the Vertebrata and no higher, and not to any "Metaspriggiidae" rank.

Inner demon

• Inner demon → Demon  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

There's a concept here somewhere, but it's not really discussed in enough depth to warrant a redirect. The sole mention at the target is the throwaway sentence Within a psychological context demons may be used as metaphors for inner psychological processes ("inner demons"). in the lead with no body support. Normally I would say "delete per WP:REDLINK", but the existence of Inner Demon (film) at a WP:MISPLACED title throws that off so I have no idea. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:24, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

This could still be deleted per WP:RTR (which I think is what you meant to cite?) and Inner Demon (film) moved to base title Inner Demon, leaving inner demon a redlink for someone to create. Surprisingly, there's no Wiktionary entry on inner demon to soft redirect to, even though it is mentioned at wikt:demon in one of the usage examples.

Wait, there's also inner demons, which is a disambiguation page... 9ninety (talk) 04:33, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

Flood disaster

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

Awkward/implausible search term. Compare tornado disaster, hurricane disaster, etc. Note that Flood Disaster (film) exists and is WP:MISPLACED * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:12, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I feel like "flood disaster" is more plausible/natural than tornado disaster or hurricane disaster, and indeed it is actually used a couple of times in the flood article itself. The North Sea flood of 1953 is also known as the Flood Disaster according to the lead (and there's a redirect from Flood Disaster 1953), and the term is also used at Flood Disaster Medal and several other places like flood management (3 times), 1931 Chinese floods (translated name), Clydach Vale § 1910 flood disaster, Wakayama Prefecture § 1953 flood disaster, Santa Paula Airport § 2005 flood disaster, and David Idris Zacharias § 2012 flood disaster.

Therefore, this seems like a plausible term to me, and should probably just be kept, with a hatnote to the film. 9ninety (talk) 04:18, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

The iPhone 18 does not currently exist, but there is already the iPhone 18 Pro. I think calling the high-end phone simply as the "iPhone 18" is a common mistake. The latest mid-range flagship phone is the iPhone 17. Rumors I saw say that the base model iPhone 18 will be released in early 2027. Slackintosh (talk) 18:54, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

  I did consider that, but I think it could just end up being misleading or confusing, if readers expect to find an iPhone 18 model, only to land at the 18 Pro. The article has no information on the actual expected base model (or why there isn't one yet), so it isn't a very helpful target. The lack of a target would make it clearer that this model doesn't exist yet. 9ninety (talk) 07:23, 18 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete: There is no chance that people will mistake the name of the base 18 for the 18 Pro, given that the Pro moniker has been used for 7 years. iPhone 18 Pro already shows up in search results when you type iPhone 18 anyway.

Someone who only knows there's a phone wuth a name that contains "iPhone 18" in it could very well do it as a search when they're really looking for the pro model.

Indigenous law

• Indigenous law → Canadian Indigenous law  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Indigenous law is obviously not limited to Canada, but there's no clear target. Indigenous rights isn't really the same thing. I also stumbled across aboriginal law, which is an odd dab page that just links to related concepts in Canada, Australia, and the US.

Maybe indigenous rights and Canadian Indigenous law can be added to that dab, and this can be re-targeted there? I feel like it should be returned to red, because there isn't really a suitable target. 9ninety (talk) 15:09, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I (maker of redirect) was planning on making a page for Indigenous law, if that context is helpful.GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 15:12, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Well, I don't (edit: think) the redirect in its current form is very helpful, and there are only two incoming mainspace links, so it should probably just be a red link until an article is written. 9ninety (talk) 15:20, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I think DABifying it for now would be good, there's several concepts that cover the same one as the Canadian Indigenous law article, they are as follows:

• Customary law in South Africa
• Customary law in Ethiopia
• Indigenous Australian customary law
• Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act of 1997 § Justice system and Conflict resolution

Theevu (talk) 15:37, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

• We might consider Customary law, then, or at least its #Customary legal systems section. An article on Indigenous law would indeed be useful, though in the meantime, it seems awkward to try to make it into a disambiguation page. --BDD (talk) 21:02, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

  Do you think aboriginal law should then also be redirected there as well, as an {{r from avoided double redirect}}? Canadian Aboriginal law and Aboriginal title in the United States are currently not listed at customary law § customary legal systems, but they probably should be anyway, which would make the current aboriginal law dab redundant. 9ninety (talk) 14:03, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

  Incorporating them at that list is probably a good idea. Surely Aboriginal law and Indigenous law represents the same concept and is just a matter of naming. --BDD (talk) 14:25, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

  Aboriginal law is like tribal law in the United States, it's the legal system imposed by the colonial power (in this case, Canada) on the indigenous inhabitants. Indigenous law is the actual legal system of an Indigenous nation. Customary law is a practice of law, not a whole legal system. Indigenous law includes customary law in the same way Islamic law or American law includes marriage law (Both of them also have their own customary law). These things are all different.

• Keep. Were you looking for Samoan Islands? Those aren't referred to as "Samoas" as far as I can tell. The cookie looks to be the only topic routinely pluralized in this manner. -- Tavix ^(talk) 13:38, 9 October 2026 (UTC)
• Redirect per nom. The dab page has plenty of entries, so it is reasonable to assume that someone could misspell or deliberately type "Samoas" in pursuit of a variety of topics. TNstingray (talk) 14:10, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

• Weak keep Google search results for "Samoas" overwhelmingly refer to the cookie, but I can find a few instances of people calling the Samoan Islands "Samoas". It doesn't appear to be a particularly common name, however, unlike Dakotas or Carolinas, where the region is clearly the primary topic. Maybe a hatnote is appropriate? ~2026-48129-52 (talk) 16:36, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

There is already a hatnote in place. -- Tavix ^(talk) 16:53, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to DAB page. Special:WhatLinksHere/Samoas has no links to the cookies (other than a selflink) and one to the islands. "The Samoas" is a natural way of referring collectively to American Samoa and the former Western Samoa, which has become less common since the latter was renamed. Google Books and Scholar matches are overwhelmingly the islands, not the cookies. jnestorius^(talk) 23:53, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Retarget or keep?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris ^talk! 07:52, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

• I don't think retargeting to dab is particularly helpful as there are only two things this could really refer to, and none of the other entries there are relevant. Since the Samoan Islands apparently aren't commonly called the Samoas, while the cookies are, I lean keep, but change the hatnote to specifically link to the Samoan Islands instead of the dab page. 9ninety (talk) 09:56, 17 October 2026 (UTC)
• Weak keep I guess. Yeah, this should target either the cookies or the islands, with a hatnote there to the other. The islands certainly have more long-term significance, but it's also a fairly unlikely way to refer to them, and most people are probably more interested in the nation rather than a general geographical region. One day, the cookies will probably go away and be forgotten about, and we can update this, but until then, it seems like it's the more likely target. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 17:34, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Retarget to LGBTQ (term)#MVPFAFF. I think that's probably better than redirecting to List of LGBTQ acronyms, since MVPFAFF specifically means Lgbtq+ within the context of specifically pacific societies, so this would probably be more helpful to readers who would be looking for information about that.

Matriarch

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

I propose changing this redirect to either going to Matriarch (disambiguation) or Elder (administrative title)#Matriarchs. Whichever is preferred, I'd prefer a link to the elder page. A Matriarch is simply an older woman in a position of authority, typically within some sort of kinship thingy. Meanwhile, Matriarchy is a largely unrelated pseudohistorical conspiracy theory claiming that the world was run by women for 200 thousand years through love, hugs and kisses. I did this change previously, but a user on my talk page insisted this must be a move request. It seems to me that's for changing a page title, so I'm doing this instead, maybe I'm misunderstanding GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 03:46, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Matriarchy is a pseudohistorical conspiracy theory claiming the world was run by women for 200 thousand years

Unless I'm missing something, that's just… not at all what's described by the article? 9ninety (talk) 09:49, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

The article is biased but regardless, they're still distinct, matriarchy is an obscure political ideology/pseudohistorical revisionism. I think Matriarch wikilinking to Matriarch makes more sense than Matriarch linking to anything else. Do you disagree with this? GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 10:48, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

matriarchy is an obscure political ideology/pseudohistorical revisionism

Again, that is not supported by the article, wikt:matriarchy, or Google search results. The § Paleolithic and Neolithic Ages section discusses prehistoric matriarchy, but I find no indication that this is a general usage of the word. According to Google, it just means "a social, political, or family system in which women hold primary authority, power, and leadership roles," which is pretty much also what our article and Wiktionary say. 9ninety (talk) 11:02, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

This isn't the discussion topic, so idc? I'm not here to debate your article or do some pedantic definition debate. I think Matriarch should link to Matriarch. Once again, do you disagree with this?GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 12:58, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean by matriarch should link to matriarch. Are you suggesting to move matriarch (disambiguation) to matriarch? A WP:RM would be the correct procedure. I don't think your other suggested target is much better than the current target, as it seems to treat matriarch as an Elder title (and is also written in a very weird way and doesn't make a ton of sense), while matriarchy covers a broader sense of women in authoritative/privileged positions, which seems more appropriate and less confusing. 9ninety (talk) 13:35, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I proposed changing the redirect target of Matriarch to either going to Matriarch (disambiguation) or Elder (administrative title)#Matriarchs whichever is preferred. I did this change previously, but a user on my talk page insisted this must be a move request. It seems to me that move requests are for changing a page title, not changing a redirect target, so I'm doing RfD instead. GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 13:55, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

If you're suggesting Matriarch doesn't have a primary topic and should be a disambiguation page (for example, Mercury is a disambiguation page since it doesn't have a primary topic), you'll need to start a move request to move matriarch (disambiguation) to the base title. However, as I stated, I think matriarchy is an appropriate target, and clearly the primary topic over the movie, album, and other miscellaneous items listed at the disambiguation. 9ninety (talk) 14:08, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I proposed changing the redirect target of Matriarch to go to Matriarch (disambiguation). GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 14:15, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

That's not how it works. "X" can't redirect to "X (disambiguation)"; the disambiguation page would have to be at "X", with "X (disambiguation)" redirecting to it. So, you are proposing to move matriarch (disambiguation) to matriarch. 9ninety (talk) 14:17, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I see what you mean, I'll get on that then. Sorry, I literally was not aware of this rule, I've never done this before.GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 14:19, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

No worries; I suspected that, which is why I linked the primary topic policy and Mercury as an example :) 9ninety (talk) 14:22, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your patience! GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 14:29, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I'll just say that I don't think it's a good idea to start a move request while this discussion is already open; this discussion could be used to first determine whether there is a primary topic, or the disambiguation should be moved. RFDs typically run for a week. 9ninety (talk) 14:34, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Addendum: now that I think of it, I have seen RFDs end in consensus to move disambiguation pages to base titles, so a move request is probably not actually needed; that's my bad. Need to remind myself that Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy! 9ninety (talk) 14:37, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

Got it!GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 14:39, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

'while matriarchy covers a broader sense of women in authoritative/privileged positions, which seems more appropriate and less confusing.' The vast majority of the page is about Matriarchy as a specific political/social system not individual women in a nondescript priviledged position, idk where you're getting this from even the categories show thats its about a unified political/social system. GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 14:06, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

yes, matriarchy is a social system, and matriarch clearly refers to the women in such systems. It's not explicitly spelled out in the article, but I thought the implication was self-evident. It may not be the best target, but it is understandable. 9ninety (talk) 14:15, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

100% of Matriarchs have not lived in a Matriarchy, so this is not obvious to me sorry.GastonN'estPasBon (talk) 14:18, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

I have no idea why this term redirects to such a specific article. It should instead redirect to the generic article, British Raj. "British India" is used interchangeably with "British Raj". In fact, I would say it was actually considerably commoner than British Raj. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:16, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep - It is an important term, and the appropriateness of the target has been discussed many times on the article talk pages. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 09:43, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep the redirect The proposal to remove the redirect conflates two different historical and legal entities. As outlined in the lead of the British Raj article, the Raj comprised two separate regions:

  • British India: The regions directly administered by the British Crown through the India Office and the Secretary of State for India, a cabinet member in the British government.

    The Princely states: Territories governed by local Indian rulers under British paramountcy with the British sovereign their suzerain. (See, for example, File:Image victoria proclamation1858c.JPG)

Maintaining the redirect from British India to Presidencies and provinces of British India is not only historically accurate, but also reflects the longstanding academic consensus in modern Indian history. (See, for example, the lead of the FA India, where the distinction is clearly made.) Changing this based on common misconceptions would undermine Wikipedia's encyclopedic reliability. This should be quickly ended. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 10:29, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

PS. On a personal note, I assume good faith, but I'm somewhat alarmed that this has been done so lightly, without prior discussion on Talk:British Raj, Talk:India, or WT:INDIA Fowler&fowler«Talk» 10:29, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

PPS Upon rethinking this, I do feel that there is no reason for this redirect to continue to exist, though for reasons different from the proposer's. I think that this discussion should be closed. After that, Presidencies and provinces of British India should be moved to British India and thereafter requisite changes should be made to the lead. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 18:34, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

PPPS The point to understand is that British India is much older than the Raj, which came into existence only in 1858, i.e. after the Indian Rebellion of 1857, when the British government disbanded the East India Company and began to directly administer regions of India that had hitherto been governed by the Company. British India existed essentially from the early 1700s onward, when the East India Company established a governing presence in its three Presidency towns Bombay, Calcutta, and Madras. The maps in the page Presidencies and provinces of British India beautifully lay out the expansion of British India from a foothold to the large part of a subcontinent. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 19:09, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

PPPPS (The postscripts are essentially notes to myself). The reason that the page move I am proposing was not attempted earlier is that "British India" was an informal term, just as the British Raj was. But the British Raj is now an established term, in great part in my view because of the Wikipedia page, (See, for example, Audrey Truschke's India: 5,000 Years of History on the Subcontinent, Princeton University Press, 2025, page 333, "British colonialism had two major phases in South Asia: Company rule (1757–1858) and the British Raj (1858–1947)" I well remember the dozens of discussions in which people were trying to change the names of pages Company rule in India, British Raj, British India and Presidencies and provinces of British India. These pages eventually came to influence usage even in the OED (see the Raj's talk page). I don't know who it was Philip Baird Shearer or the late Doug Weller, or Nichalp who had that foresight, but I tip my hat to them. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 19:34, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

...Presidencies and provinces of British India should be moved to British India... That would certainly get my support. The current title and redirect makes little sense. We use WP:COMMONNAME on Wikipedia, and that is clearly British India. Although it does appear that you vehemently opposed this move back in 2020! I should also point out, incidentally, that "British Raj" is itself not a common term. It was just "the Raj" (just as it was never called the British Indian Army, just the Indian Army). Another example of Wikipedia editors making up names for expediency's sake and then insisting they've always been the correct and common names. -- Necrothesp (talk) 19:19, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

Hmm. You're, of course, completely wrong that "British Raj" is a term made up by Wikipedia editors. I see 6,477 references to the term British Raj on JSTOR, many from well before the existence of Wikipedia (cf., ). Regardless, this discussion should be on the article talk pages not in an RfD. RegentsPark (comment) 21:46, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep As Kautilya3 says, this has been much discussed and the redirect is the current consensus. Fowler, your points are well taken but the RfD page is not exactly the right venue for what is a complex discussion that needs extended discussion. I suggest you take your points to the talk page of the article, perhaps with a note on both British Raj as well as the Presidencies and provinces page. RegentsPark (comment) 22:02, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep British India means the area that was entirely under control of British officials while British Raj means the area which was actually under the control of the British but had princely state kings as head of the states of the said regions. WalkingDisks (talk) 04:47, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

• Ehhhh, keep I guess. First, per WP:DIFFCAPS, the dab page is capitalized, as every entry there (barring the intro note about the plain meaning) is a proper name. And antagonists aren't always the bad guy (just as protagonists aren't always the good guy). And the colloquial usage as villain is far more plausible a way to look that up than it is to look up criminal. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 00:14, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

  Antagonists aren't always bad, but "bad guy" can be more metaphorical than literal. I still believe its obvious target is not always villain - not enough for a forced redirect at least. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:37, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep. Agree with Deacon Vorbis. Also worth noting that though the nomination implies that "villian" excludes real people, the article Villain explicitly includes both real and fictional people.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:37, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

I don't think makes sense to retarget to the dab page, since it defines the villain meaning ("type of character in fiction and other narratives") as the primary topic at the top. Retargeting to dab would imply there isn't a primary topic, which contradicts the dab page. So, keep. I will say that I think the villain article should establish a distinction between the term and antagonist, as they're often colloquially used synonymously. 9ninety (talk) 07:11, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

I think what goes unsaid here is that current WP:disambiguation page content is not gospel, and the proposal is to amend it as well, to make this ambiguity more explicit. Likewise we can choose to amend villain to explain it, because that's also not unimpeachable :) It depends on how much practical ambiguity there is. --Joy (talk) 07:19, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to Bad Guy when the term "bad guy" doesn't necessarily mean villain, and this term isn't even mentioned on the current target page anyway. Even with an appropriate mention on article, let's not downplay how the phrase "bad guy" is often another way of calling someone a "jerk" or "mean—spirited".

for starters, there's a chance a reader wouldn't know what a morph ball was in the first place, and search based on not fully knowing what it is. being taken to a section that explains how it works in one single specific game could, among other stuff, lead them to believe that the morph ball is only in super metroid (which people familiar with, say, prime, dread, and prime pinball, would know might not be the case)

and just a little more importantly, the article outright refers to the form as "morph ball" and clarifies that "morphing ball" is just what that game calls it, so having different targets for both would make things surprising for a reader who, for whatever reason, decides to search a thing more than once, and has learned by at least the second time that it really is called "morph ball" consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 11:25, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete, not even spelled the same as the proposed retarget, but regardless, Wikipedia is not a dictionary, and a bare listing of slang terms is outside our scope. There's no need to compound one error with a redirect to it. And the current target (US dollar) doesn't specifically mention this, leaving the connection unclear (nor should it). –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 17:45, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
• Delete. As the deacon says, WP:NOTDICT and a mis-spelling. Happily, we don't have redirects for the normal spelling "smackeroo" or even "smacker" (which used to be a peso, and then a UK pound or a dollar), nor should we for this. (The proposition that it's an onomatopoiea is baffling to me, as I've never heard any money make a sound like "smackaroo".) NebY (talk) 18:08, 7 October 2026 (UTC)

• Weak keep While this seems like an unlikely search term, redirects are WP:CHEAP, and this also isn't a misspelling.

  CHEAP is about server resources, which no one has brought up, so it doesn't apply here. Further, it's unmentioned at the current target. Either someone already knows what it means, but will find no further information on the term there, or they don't, and they don't know why they've landed at the target. Either it's misleading, or confusing. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 18:54, 7 October 2026 (UTC)

Google twin

• Google twin → Google Search  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete as there's no information about this term at the target or anywhere else on enwiki. This was an article from 2007 to 2008, and had survived an AfD, as two decades back, searching for someone with your name was considered a thing in egosurfing. But the article never improved, and there was a failed attempt at PROD, and when it was made a redirect, the target didn't have the information even then. Although the redirect summary said merge/redirect orphaned article into Google search, I don't see any merge done.

Google Gemini, named after the Gemini twins, is a poor ATD choice as well, because of the singular, and there is no Google twins. Jay 06:42, 7 October 2026 (UTC)

Political candidate who ran in but withdrew from the target election. Previously ran in 2014_United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections_in_California#District_35.

Not mentioned in the target article. Most likely, the intended target of this redirect is Zangfu#San Jiao三焦 (Triple Burner), but again, the redirect is not mentioned in that article. Third-party search engines for this term seem to primarily return results for three chamber boiler units, and well as a nonexistent subject Triple-pass boiler, meaning most likely, if someone is searching this term in English, they are most likely not looking for anything in the current target page.

• Comment. @Marbletan: how is it a deficiency in the target article? Trimethoprim doesn't appear to be a sulfate, so trimethoprim sulfate would be a different chemical (like sodium and sodium sulfate). pburka (talk) 20:50, 3 October 2026 (UTC)

  Trimethoprim is a base, so trimethoprim sulfate would be the salt of its conjugate acid. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:39, 4 October 2026 (UTC)

  Pharmaceutical drugs are often formulated as salts. There can be multiple different salt formulations of a drug while the active ingredient remains the same. Trimethoprim sulfate is one such salt formulation (see CID 64936 from PubChem, for example). It is reasonable and useful for a Wikipedia article about a pharmaceutical drug to describe the salts that are used in the medications that are sold to consumers, so I think it is a deficiency of a Wikipedia article to not do so.

• Fan-song → S-75 Dvina  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

These two redirects should have the same target, but I know nothing about the topic of radar technology, so I'm not sure what it should be. Or maybe the target should be Fan labor or Filk music? Or maybe Fan § Music? –CopperyMarrow15 (talk · edits) 03:33, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

I think the two ways to solve this would be either to make a disambiguation page, but I'm not sure there would be enough articles that relate to that title, and the option I personally like more is that both should redirect to the SNR-75. Feel free to correct me though on the topic of there not being enough articles to make a disambiguation, and then if there is like one or two articles, I would just add the for template to the SNR-75 article.

Actually looking at it again, I think the Fan-song should be a disambiguation page, even if there's only a few articles, and Fan Song to redirect to SNR-75 as that's the way the NATO reporting name of the radar is written. Thanks for noticing this and bringing this up by the way. 12030123O9 (talk) 06:25, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

Semitic Pagan deities

• Semitic Pagan deities → Canaanite Religion  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Nominating Semitic Pagan deities for: deletion, move to Semitic pagan deities, and/or target change to Ancient Semitic religion.

Deletion reason:

• unused: redirect is not used, except on one user's talk page, on Wikipedia, despite existing for over 20 years.
• article-capable: as per WP:RDELETE redirect namespace (with appropriate titling) could arguably be made into a WP:LIST type article as per Aztec deities (redirects to List of Aztec gods and supernatural beings, or general article as per Ancient Egyptian deities, Shinto gods (redirects to Kami)).
• arguably confusing: as per WP:RDELETE, redirect is to a specific pagan tradition (Canaanite religion), despite broader implication of namespace title.

Further considerations:

• for: does not seem likely to be be accidental link given scant use, but metrics to contrary welcome;
• for: a proper article created in namespace would not be a duplicate as per above;
• against: might aid search, though a target change would be needed, as 236 views have been recorded since January 1 2020 as per pageviews.

Move reason:

• violates WP:SENTENCECASE: "pagan" should be lower-case.

Target change reason:

• topical scope: redirect to Canaanite religion ostensibly relates to a subtopic of the broader issue of Semitic paganism, and so a redirect to a laterally equivalent issue (Semitic religions) is preferable; presumably, one using such general nomenclature specifically wants information targeted at the general level, lest they would have searched for more specific nomenclature.

Summary: Redirect Semitic Pagan deities should be either deleted or moved, and if moved then likely retargeted, for title violations and ambiguity.— Preceding unsigned comment added by HiddenHistoryPedia (talk • contribs) 14:52, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

• It's easy to find sources saying that "cyber service" means virtual volunteering, so if it is retargeted, we should add a hatnote. Disambiguation is an option.

  • It's easy to find sources saying that "cyber service" means virtual volunteering
    It largely depends on the scenario here. In this case, cybersecurity seems more applicable here. Search results yield sources pertaining to said topic. In addition, "cyberservice" is a used initialism for "cybersecurity services".
    Neither of the titles under discussion mention security.
    May you provide some further context to this part of your rationale here? I'm having a bit trouble understanding what you're fully saying, as the articles I mentioned both cover security (although I will say that "Cybersecurity" is more informative about it than "List of computer security companies").

@LazyLune: The two redirects under discussion are "Cyberservices" and "Cyber service". Neither of those are about security.

• 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)

• 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)

• Delete. The correct spelling for the meaning "Teaching assistant" is Teaching aide. An "aid" would a tool, instrument, or toy to assist in teaching. While this is a plausible mistake, I think correct interpretations should take priority. Wikipedia doesn't seem to have an article about teaching tools, educational tools, educational aids, or learning aids. It has educational toy but that's not quite right as it seems mostly concerned with play independently of teaching. In absence of a target, I suspect this is a notable gap in coverage; papers about the topic can be found on Scholar and publications on Google Books. Return to red to encourage article creation.
  The first revision is obvious vandalism, the most concerning part being that it includes a phone number. The fourth revisions seems to include personal names. Obviously these are concerning, but I'm not sure what the point of doing a revdel first would be. To leave a log entry?

Keep the ones with "and" per the acronyms/collective terms discussed at Maintenance § Definitions, or delete them as WP:XY if that would be too confusing.

Retarget Repairer and Repairman to Handyman as those terms refer to a role or type of person rather than directly to the work they do. Note the bold synonyms at Handyman.

Retarget the rest to Corrective maintenance as "repair" and its variations by themselves imply that something is broken and needs "fixing" or, synonymously, "mending". Maintenance is a much broader topic, and can include routine work to maintain continued function of things that haven't broken yet and as such do not need repair. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:09, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

I agree with Scyrme. (For clarity, Repairing, Repairs, and Mending are the ones that we think should also redirect to Corrective maintenance.)

This is a very big vote, but I think it makes sense to me for us to Disambiguate Repair with links to every pages the listed redirects send you to, and Redirect everything else to Repair. | One Reaction was here. Got a complaint? 12:23, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

Every? The redirects currently only go to two, one of which is a subtopic for the other, that subtopic being corrective maintenance, which states in bold that it is synonymous with repair. The only reason repair is mentioned at maintenance is because repair is a type of maintenance, but maintenance is not synonymous with repair so linking it at a a disambiguation page is not appropriate. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:02, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

• Comment - First of all, IMHO, this RFD should be split into one entry per term, as this could become cumbersome. That said:

1. Repair - Expand Repair (disambiguation) (which exists already) and move to Repair
2. Repairer - Retarget to Handyman
3. Repairman - Retarget to Handyman
4. Repairing - Retarget to Repair (disambiguation)
5. Repairs - Retarget to Repair (disambiguation)
6. Repair and Overhaul - Retarget to Maintenance#Definitions where it is mentioned
7. Repair and overhaul - Retarget to Maintenance#Definitions where it is mentioned
8. Repair and maintenance- Retarget to Maintenance#Definitions where it is mentioned
9. Repairs and maintenance - Retarget to Maintenance#Definitions where it is mentioned
10. Mending - Retarget to Repair (disambiguation) --Jax 0677 (talk) 19:27, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

I agree about retargetting the "and"s to the "Definitions" section.

However, I don't think that DAB is very helpful. DNA repair, Right to repair, and Home repair are already listed amongst various other related terms in Corrective maintenance § See also, and Repair and deduct should be added to either there or Home repair § See also. "Repairing" and "Mending" are not relevant to the song "Repair" nor the episode "Repairs". I do think we should add this hatnote to Corrective maintenance, though: {{Redirect|Repair}} =>

"Repair" redirects here. For other uses, see Repair (disambiguation).

Since these are closely related, I do think we should discuss them together rather than fragmenting the conversation, even if distinguishing the subcases is a bit annoying.

Solomon Ucko (talk) 19:40, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

I've removed DNA repair and Right to repair from the disambiguation page as partial title matches (PTM). They are never referred to as just "repair" by itself and it's not appropriate to list them on the disambiguation page except maybe in a see also. Repair and deduct may also be a PTM but I'm not sure; I'm not familiar with United States law I've left it. If it is a PTM, please remove it too. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:47, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

.7zip

• .7zip → 7z  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete as it's not a real file extension, nor is it mentioned in the article. AlphaBetaDeltaLambda(αβδλ)^talk 18:22, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Keep and tag as {{r from incorrect name}}. External search results show plenty of examples of pages about a ".7zip" format, regardless of whether it actually exists or has ever existed. It's easy to confuse .7z and .zip and misremember the format as .7zip, especially since the program is called "7-Zip" and the "z" in "7z" stands for "zip". The confusion is not even just due to LLM hallucinations; this was very common well before genAI became widely available. (eg. Superuser, 2009)

The article mentions "7-Zip" so I doubt any users would be surprised to be redirected there. Practically, 7z is exactly what any reader searching this would be looking for, namely this particular archive file format associated with 7-Zip. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 19:57, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Should these also be included?

Comment.

This redirect was brought up at RfD a few weeks ago, where there were only 3 comments, each proposing one or more distinct solutions, in addition to the one suggested in the nomination, and the discussion resulted in no consensus. The lowercase version, Game watch, is a long-standing uncontroversial redirect, also to Handheld electronic game.

We could delete to facilitate searching instead (although I'm not sure if the lowercase version would interfere anyways...); the results include all of the proposed targets. There is no content in the history, just redirects (briefly Nelsonic Industries, and then Handheld electronic game).

Alternatively, if this is retargeted, the hatnote created by User:Tevildo at Handheld electronic game, {{Redirect|Game Watch|the Nintendo console|Game & Watch|the Nelsonic Industries product line|Nelsonic Game Watch|the IT news website|Impress Watch}}, should be moved to the new target and adjusted as appropriate.

Or we could could convert that into a DAB page, and perhaps tag it with {{broad-concept article}}.

Solomon Ucko (talk) 02:58, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

• I'll just repeat my comment from the last RfD that Nelsonic Industries is probably the best target, as their product is actually called "Game Watch" with that spacing and capitalization. But the status quo seems acceptable. Tevildo (talk) 06:12, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

  Oh, good point. If the orthography is a distinguishing characteristic, that is a valid argument as per WP:SMALLDETAILS. However, frequency of usage can override it; I'm not sure how to judge that here. Solomon Ucko (talk) 07:15, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Tevildo @Sollyucko But how's that different from the target I proposed, which has a product also called "Game Watch"? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:10, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Piotrus: That one says it's "stylized as GAME Watch", which has different capitalization.

  So we could have:

  • game watch => handheld electronic game or handheld game console
  • Game Watch => Nelsonic Industries
  • GAME Watch => Impress Holdings

  (or relevant sections thereof)

  Solomon Ucko (talk) 01:18, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Sollyucko Fair, but the stylization is inconsistent. At least in some Wikipedia references, the website is called just Game Watch, ditto in Template:Video game journalism. Granted, maybe the solution here is to fix things in the template and our citations? But it is, obviously, not an uncommon error. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:38, 17 October 2026 (UTC)

"Atomy" is a very unusual word (check out its RfD if you haven't already). I can't think of anything else it could refer to, but it still strikes me as a novel or very obscure synonym.

Delete. Agree with the nomination; this is a very far stretch. Even if you assume the listener just writes it as they hear it, ignoring completely what they might interpret it to mean, the speaker would actually have to say it that way. Phonologically, I could only see this even being anywhere near plausible if the speaker had a strong non-native accent. They'd have to devoice the 's from /z/ to /s/, which no native English speaker would do in this context, and, probably glottalise the /n/ for it to be interpreted by a listener as an "and" which is contracted to a 'n' as in dungeons'n'dragons. I don't know what kind of accent would glottalise the /n/ in that context, but it seems more likely than randomly inserting an intrusive /d/. From either end, speaker or listener, it doesn't hold up. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 16:55, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

No information about this term or its acronym at the target or anywhere else on enwiki.

Delete in the absence of any info, and the pre-redirect content needn't be kept as well. Considering "development" as a generic word, I could not find any section at Applications of artificial intelligence which could be an alternate target. ai-d is a transliteration of one group of Thai people, but this would be a stretch for an ATD.

Lean delete - My first thought was AI for software development, ie. AI-assisted software development, followed by AI as a method to promote economic development, for which I wasn't able to find an article.

External search results overwhelmingly bring up a specific initiative pushed by various governmental and intergovernment organisations including the Canadian International Development Research Centre (), the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (), and the United Nations Development Programme (). In this context, it's always capitalised as Artificial Intelligence for Development/AI for Development. This is much more specific and organised than just the general idea of using AI to promote economic development, so represents a related but distinct topic.

I'm not really sure what to do with this, but guidelines that come to mind as possibly being relevant are WP:RETURNTORED and WP:PRIMARYRED. I'm leaning towards deletion as the least messy option, at least until an article about the global initiative is created. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 22:25, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Delete both. Artificial intelligence for development just refers to AI-D, with no additional information. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=AI-D&oldid=352060861 (written solely by User:Vfrias on March 25, 2010) would probably qualify for speedy deletion under WP:G11:

Extended content

Artificial Intelligence for Development explores opportunities for harnessing AI to promote the socioeconomic development and enhance the quality of life of disadvantaged populations, including those within developing countries. Beyond discussing and sharing ideas, we hope to catalyze the creation of AI-D as a subfield of the more established broader area of information and communication technology for development (ICT-D).

Machine learning, inference, planning, and perception have the potential to bring great value to the developing world in a wide array of areas, including healthcare, education, transportation, and agriculture. AI methods promise to provide new directions for enhancing and extending novel economic concepts like microfinance and microwork. The methods can be used to assist with the detecting and responding to natural and human-caused disasters. Reasoning systems might one day help to extend medical care to remote regions through automated diagnosis and effective triaging of limited medical expertise and transportation resources. Unprecedented quantities of data are being generated in the developing world on human health, financial transactions, movement, and communications. AI methods can help to tease out insights from this data on social relationships and dynamics, human mobility patterns, and population responses to crises. Models and systems that leverage such data might one day guide public policy, monitor interventions, and to provide insights about population responses to crises.

To date, ICT-D efforts have led to valuable ideas and insights. However, ICT-D efforts have rarely focused on opportunities to harness machine learning and reasoning to create intelligent systems, services, models, and analyses. AI-D started as a AAAI Spring Symposium at Stanford 2010 with a focus on bringing together a critical mass of researchers who share an interest in applying AI research to development challenges.

The one at Deviousmud was redirected to enforce that AfD, though the content seems to have been written from scratch. Though RuneScape did mention "DeviousMUD" in 2007, I didn't see any evidence of a merge when scanning over the revisions. (See, eg., revisions neighbouring 1 February 2007, 24 September 2007, 9 November 2012) Suggest deletion for lack of a helpful target. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 04:20, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Delete both Although "DeviousMUD" has no results on any Wikipedia pages aside from these two redirects, it does have results in WikiBooks, where it's mentioned as "RuneScape started out as a 2D game known as DeviousMUD. It was not released to the public and very few people saw it." I don't know much about RuneScape, but this appears to be somewhat important in the game's history? Anyway, it's misleading, as someone searching for this probably already knows what RuneScape is and would be looking for information on DeviousMUD in particular.

Retarget both to RuneScape § Development. I've added a brief mention there: Special:Diff/1380490756.

Solomon Ucko (talk) 01:25, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

Calvin (2021) and Levene and Anderson (2012) affirm that DeviousMUD existed and became RuneScape. Levene and Anderson (2012) does not mention "releases in 1998 and 1999", it only mentions that it was eventually released in 2001 as RuneScape. Calvin (2021) mentions development began in 1998 with a brief beta test after 7 months of development; plausibly that could have been in 1999 if development began in the Summer 1998. The Tip.It Times does mention versions in 1998 and 1999, but explicitly states the 1998 version was never released, though it states a beta test of "DeviousMUD2", a completely rewrite from scratch, was released in 1999. The Tip.It Times is blog in the style of a newspaper, maintained by players from the Rune Tips fansite/forum, so it's not a reliable source.

I've reworded the mention to simply say the name was used and development began in 1998. I'm not comfortable mentioning the release in 1999 given the year is not stated in a reliable source. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:47, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

Keep/retarget per above if new edit remains. I'm not sure about the appropriateness of DeviousMUD in the version history - while it became RuneScape, I'm not sure I'd say it (or Castle GamesDomain ) was RuneScape. Though as much of what RuneScape launched with was drawn up during the DeviousMUD days, I certainly think it's worth a mention in the article. Here for the one billionth edit (talk) 22:09, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

English city names

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. Also, English citiesEnglish cities redirects to City status in the United Kingdom, which doesn't list that many city names, but List of cities in the United Kingdom (of which List of cities in EnglandList of cities in England redirects to) mentions that there are 55 cities in England.

• Retarget to List of cities in the United Kingdom, to sync with List of cities in England. The list there gives the names of every city in England as a sortable table. Admittedly the list also includes Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, but it can be sorted by statistical region which groups them in a way that makes finding just the English ones straightforward. Seems good enough to me.

A delete vote of a strength between weak delete and normal delete Considering how almost everyone has proposed different targets, it seems like the term is ambiguous. However, it is also something I could see someone searching, but it might be best to just let search results guide them at that point. ~2026-48129-52 (talk) 16:31, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

I'm not sure; all of the potential solutions mentioned above seem reasonable to me, including retargeting it to a relevant article, deleting it, or making it a DAB (which could list the relevant articles for each possible interpretation).

Another potential target could be the DAB at English, since it provides suggestions for what the ambiguous word in the title might refer to.

This redirect was created in 2007 by User:Greenshed; at the time, the target looked like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Names_of_European_cities_in_different_languages&oldid=141128704.

My guess is that this was made because the target said, and still says, "Cities are listed alphabetically by their current best-known name in English." Accordingly, I'm also fine with leaving it as-is, though I'd then prefer to move it to European city names in English.

Full face

• Full face → Portrait painting#full face  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

My first thought is something along the lines of moon face in regard to this term. Apparently it is a common descriptor of helmets as well. Should this remain targeted to portraiture? — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 11:22, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Keep. Moon face doesn't work since it's a medical symptom, whereas this is more about face shape ("a full face"). I haven't been able to find a Wikipedia article about face shapes, surprisingly. The section "face shape" redirects to is vague, oddly technical, and doesn't discuss particular commonly used expressions like 'round', 'square', 'full', 'gaunt', etc. faces. There's nothing there that would be helpful to a reader searching for the topic.

As far as I'm aware full-face masks/helmets aren't just called "full faces" so those topics are only partial title matches for Motorcycle helmet § Full face helmet, Full-face diving mask, Full-face snorkel mask, etc. Disambiguation isn't needed for PTMs. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:05, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

@Filiep: It looks like you created all of these redirects, and many more, on August 10, 2020. Do you remember why? Solomon Ucko (talk) 02:31, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

Hi. Yes, I based myself on the "Lexikon der Wehrmacht" site. For example https://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gliederungen/Volksgrenadierdivisionen/581VGD.htm

which mentions that the "581th Volks-Grenadier-Division" was renamed "352th Volks-Grenadier-Division" one month after its creation. And the "352th Volks-Grenadier-Division" was the re-establishment of the "352nd Infantry Division" after its destruction in July 1944. Regards Filiep (talk) 05:28, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

@Filiep: That makes sense, but without any mention at the articles, these redirects can cause astonishment and be less than helpful. I know very little German; would you be willing to add cited mentions for these? Mdewman6 (talk) 00:59, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

Hi, I added the reference in the 581st Volksgrenadier Division (Wehrmacht) Redirect page. Is that the correct place ?

Regards, Filiep (talk) 05:55, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

That's better than nothing, but it would be best to add the name ("581st Volksgrenadier Division"), the reference for it, and an explanation of when the name was used, to the target article (352nd Infantry Division).

In this case, according to https://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gliederungen/Infanteriedivisionen/352ID-R.htm and https://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gliederungen/Volksgrenadierdivisionen/581VGD.htm, the timeline seems to be:

• November 5, 1943: Division 21. Welle created
• ?: renamed to 352. Infanterie-Division
• c. July 2024: destroyed
• August 25, 1944: 581. Volks-Grenadier-Division created
• September 21, 1944: renamed to 352. Volks-Grenadier-Division

Were the 352nd Infantry Division and the 352nd Volksgrenadier Division actually related, or did they just happen to have the same number? In the latter case, I think we should split those two articles... It might be good to check the various available sources, e.g. the citations of our citations if they're accessible, for more details and context to make sure.

Thanks, Solomon Ucko (talk) 13:29, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

@Filiep: see Solomon's comment above; the reference and mention needs to go in the articles that the redirects target, so that someone using the redirect understands why they were redirected there. Thanks for working on this. Cheers, Mdewman6 (talk) 00:46, 21 October 2026 (UTC)

Retarget to Lander (spacecraft) § Impactors as {{avoided double redirect}} for Impactor (spacecraft). Makes sense for those two to share a target. Naturally, if the section is later split into an article at Impactor (spacecraft) the avoided double redirect would become a direct redirect to the new article. While impactors are a type of probe, it's better to be more specific whenever possible. The section at Lander (spacecraft) not only explicitly names impactors, it's also the most informative target about them. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:46, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Canadiens

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

• Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2014 May 19 § Canadiens – keep

• Canadiens → French Canadians  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I am doubtful on whether French Canadians is the primary topic of the term "Canadiens" among anglophones at large. While there was a previous discussion for this specific redirect 12 years ago, it seems woefully deficient in multiple ways:

• The discussion did not properly address whether the word "Canadiens" itself more commonly means either the hockey team or the ethnic group within the anglosphere, whether via arguments based on usage data, arguments based on where and how often would a general audience would be exposed to each meaning of "Canadiens" in daily life, etc.
• It doesn't address properly how much "Canadiens" is even used by Anglophones anymore to refer to French Canadians after the emergence of e.g. "French Canadians". Statements in the French Canadians article like "referred to as Canadiens mainly before the nineteenth century" (emphasis mine) need to be addressed, because a problem arises if the usage of "Canadiens" for French Canadians turns out to be on its way out.
• Global anglosphere reach of the meanings of "Canadiens" was not properly addressed. The fact that the Montreal Canadiens often play against teams representing faraway and foreign anglophone locations generally annually (and for a century now), and has sent multiple players to the Olympics (obviously a global event) gives the team a big headstart over the "French-Canadian" meaning (which I am not sure is even known in e.g. the southern or western United States, or even Western Canada) on these grounds.

Given these deficiencies, a fresh discussion is warranted. My first preference is a disambiguation page, by the way. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (Goodbye!) 18:51, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to Canadien (disambiguation), or possibly split that dab with its plurals replacing the redirect. Montreal Canadiens gets four times as many page views as French Canadians, and ten times as many page views as the other entries on that dab combined, so a primary redirect doesn't seem justified. Certes (talk) 20:12, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

Should we add Canadien to this nomination as well? Having Canadien as a primary redirect, but not Canadiens, is not necessarily the best outcome here. 162 etc. (talk) 21:07, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

CanadienCanadien may be worth discussing but it's likely to be correct already, as the ice hockey team is referred to mainly in the plural and the other meanings aren't popular. (Parti canadien gets the second most views, one twentieth of French Canadians.) Certes (talk) 21:24, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

I'm not finding any evidence that "CanadienCanadien" is used in English to refer to French Canadians (except perhaps historically – if we are to believe the lead of that article; the usage is cited to an offline source that I can't verify), nor that there is any significant usage of the singular form referring to the ice hockey team, and would be strongly tempted to suggest moving the dab page to the base name. But that probably ought to be discussed as a separate RM rather than here. Rosbif73 (talk) 12:39, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Retarget to the disambiguation page and modify the led of the dab to mention the hockey team — in the Canada-adjacent anglosphere, the hockey team is one of the primary topics that comes to mind more commonly than the ethnic group. cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 21:44, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to Montreal Canadiens as primary topic for the plural, well ahead of French Canadians in all but historic use. I'm based in France and I would have expected a search for "canadiens" -wikipedia to bring up hits relating to Canadian people, but in fact even in this primarily French-language context all the hits on the first 10 pages (I stopped checking after that) relate to the hockey team and I had to add -hockey to see other uses of the term.

There's a suite of things known by this name described in enough detail on enwiki that disambiguation seems ideal (Graphium hachei, Rosa 'Diana, Princess of Wales', and List of river cruise ships). There's also mentions at Delphin Enjolras and Drifters (manga) that don't in my opinion meet the bar for a dab entry, and the peach cultivar is also briefly discussed at Production of peaches in California.

Rat terrier

• Rat terrier → Ratter (dog)  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Retarget to Rat Terrier, rather than Ratter (dog), because it differs from the same-word article name only in capitalization. If somebody is searching for "rat terrier", they're most likely expecting Rat Terrier (but don't know that WP's MOS dictates certain capitalization), rather than a more generalized non-breed-specific group of dogs. By comparison, other lowercase-"terrier/type" redirects all point to their capital-type articles: Fox terrier → Fox Terrier, Border terrier → Border Terrier, Black and tan terrier → Black and Tan Terrier, Wire fox terrier → Wire Fox Terrier, Golden retriever → Golden Retriever, etc.  — sbb (talk) 21:56, 6 October 2026 (UTC)

• Convert to dab page listing the generic meaning, the modern American breed, the Ratonero Bodeguero Andaluz of Spain and any other rat terriers we may have pages on. Per Traumnovelle the generic meaning is primary (and NB WP:SMALLDETAILS for the difference in capitalisation), but this should satisfy everyone. NB also that only one of the first ten results of this search is about the modern breed. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 08:43, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

  The current target essentially is a dab page, listing the Ratonero you mentioned (and 5 other Ratoneros), all the ratting Terriers, and also non-Terrier ratters (such as Schnauzers, Pinschers, Schipperkes, etc.). Having yet another overload of the term "Rat Terrier" doesn't add clarity, it only further steers actual searches away from the Rat Terrier page (which is very un-loved and poorly maintained, even compared to less popular and more recently-accepted breeds. And WP:SMALLDETAILS supports the proposed retarget:

  The general approach is that whatever readers might type in the search box, they are guided as swiftly as possible to the topic they might reasonably be expected to be looking for, by such disambiguation techniques as hatnotes or disambiguation pages.

  Having Rat terrier point directly to Rat Terrier (by the principle of least WP:ASTONISHment, which strongly implies that English-language searching "rat terrier" should lead to "Rat Terrier" simply because the searched term actually exists, perfectly in parallel with the other terrier breeds), with the hatnote that exists at the top of Rat Terrier pointing to Ratter (dog) is exactly the kind of minimizing the surprise of searchers, and minimizing the effort in getting to the likely asked-for information.  — sbb (talk) 12:35, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Well, sbb, what is your evidence for the claim you make (that people typing "rat terrier" are looking for a modern American breed rather than the broad and long-established topic of rat terriers)? (note the nineteenth-century dictionary entries, mentions and indeed breed society in the first page of the Gbooks search I linked above). Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:03, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

It's self-evident that people generally don't search capitalization-specific. I don't need evidence to show that people searching "rat terrier" are not expecting a different outcome from searching "Rat Terrier", just like I don't think I need to explain or prove that most people are not aware of WP's MOS:BREED rules of capitalization, nor that they adhere to such capitalization in their personal writing or searching in general. I think it's self-evident that consistency in our breed articles' capitalization and "alternately-capitalized" equivalent-text redirects should land people at the page they were most likely searching for, and use appropriate hatnotes to point people to the reasonable-but-less-likely targets like Ratter (dog) and Working terrier. You call it a "long-established topic of rat terriers", yet you linked to "ratter", and that article does not use the term "rat terrier" anywhere other than linking directly to Rat Terrier. And your Google Books search seems like rather poor evidence of anything, other than confirmation that Rat Terrier is a modern breed, and 19th and early 20th century terminology has shifted. That shift is certainly notable and mention-worthy in either article (or perhaps both), but retaining no-longer primarily relevant terminology should not override WP:SURPRISE. I'd aruge that this Google Ngram shows that since about 2004 or so, the term "rat terrier" is more popular and mentioned than ever, and that's surely due to its establishment as a unique breed. Even the term "ratter" seems to have a resurgence from about 2000 conciding with the popularity of "rat terrier". "Rat terrier"'s similarity in occurrence with "ratter" since 2000 shows it's a mentioned and documented term in its own right, in comparison to, and as a mentioned specific breed type of general "ratter".  — sbb (talk) 15:56, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Comment: According to meta:Special:Diff/5043, Wikipedia3 is a software program hosting http://www.wikipedia.org/. It seems that the name MediaWiki didn't exist from until August 2003 according to meta:Special:Diff/10328, where Wikipedia3 is changed to MediaWiki. (meta:Overall timeline seems to confirm this.)

There are only a few pages here that mention Wikipedia3 in this context, such as Wikipedia talk:MediaWiki (archive) and there was apparently plans for a Wikipedia4 that never happened based on meta:Wikipedia4 (proposal) and meta:Wikipedia4 timeline (proposal). (It might be more accurate to say that it was not released under that name given the switch to MediaWiki.) In any case, I don't see any links that use "Wikipedia4" that point to MetaWiki.

  Even that would be ambiguous. Every 10 storms of interest within the same basin have the same Invest designation. 2006 Pacific hurricane season had ~26 storms so this invest designation was used at least 2-3 times in 2006. -- Tavix ^(talk) 20:31, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

  The Eastern Pacific and Central Pacific are separate basins with different invest designations, even though they share the same article, and the Central Pacific is usually fairly inactive. Regardless, even if there are more Invest 91Cs in 2006, this is probably the primary topic for that year. It's a rare case of a notable storm that didn't get a name, so the formulaic invest designation is the most official name we have for it.

  It is a food trend. This doesn't have to be like pulling teeth. We can simply add a bit about the trend to the toast article and move on. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:34, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

  what is the trend? the source says it's a trend, and then completely neglects to actually describe it. if we're going by the definition the source implies, it's literally just avocado toast, meaning it's still inconsistent with that picture you've placed in your talk page and the source you used, so without literally anything to decidedly anchor it to a specific concept, i'm not very willing to say that a bit can be added

  as an example using another type of bread-based dish, here's an article that defines a xis, and the variations the recipe can have (despite being written in some sort of indecipherable glyphs). you'll notice that it goes a little further beyond just saying "yeah, everyone knows what this is, everyone loves it" consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 18:46, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

  ...right, almost forgot, it's also inconsistent with every other definition thus far (bread inconsistent, green stuff inconsistent, reason for naming inconsistent, etc.), and with itself, as it goes from either saying that it's a very specific subset of avocado toast that is trending to "it's just avocado toast", or smuggling that recipe into an entry actually about avocado toast in general

  this is ignoring that the source's idea of establishing its claims as truth significant to more people than the author is effectively "take my word for it", so it's hard to verify that any of it wasn't just made up

Cyclone Arnab

• Cyclone Arnab → 2026 North Indian Ocean cyclone season#Deep Depression BOB 06  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

This cyclone name has not been used by the IMD yet (see this article for details), and may (will?) be used in the future for a different tropical cyclone than the one to which this redirect is currently pointing, making the redirect misleading if not misinformative. My R3 tagging of the redirect was declined, but the reason of "alternative name" given for the decline is incorrect: the sources calling the depression as "Arnab" are either unreliable on account of WP:RSNOI and related issues, or fall into WP:RSHEADLINES. JavaHurricane 16:01, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep: As the creator of this redirect, I made it because "Cyclone Arnab" was widely used in news reports while the storm was active, such as in The Hindu and Firstpost. Even locals along the coast (like in Digha) were calling it by that name during the event. Since readers are likely to search for the system using the name they saw in the news, keeping the redirect helps them land on the right section. If the IMD officially assigns "Arnab" to a different cyclone in the future, we can easily retarget it or turn it into a disambiguation page then. --Rojeni (talk) 16:43, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Rojeni: the Hindu article doesn't mention the term "Cyclone Arnab" at all, and the Firstpost article is in fact a good argument for deletion: the IMD (the RSMC for the region) didn't name the depression in the first place, and no other reliable source called the depression "Arnab". This leaves some sort of "social media buzz", some usage in sensationalist or other non-reliable sources, and some usage in headlines which comes under RSHEADLINES; and none of this use lasted beyond the lifetime of the storm (cf Google trends for instance). None of this usage justifies a redirect. JavaHurricane 17:05, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

  • Comment: Thanks for pointing that out regarding the Firstpost piece. However, the fact that an entire explainer had to be written asking "what's the storm everyone's talking about?" actually highlights that "Cyclone Arnab" was a widely searched term among the public during the event. Per WP:REDIRECT, redirects are routinely created for common misconceptions or unofficial names precisely to help lost readers land on the correct article. That said, I am completely fine letting the closing admin decide if strict IMD classifications should override general reader search utility in this case. --Rojeni (talk) 17:17, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

Gonotantrik Trinamool Congress

This is just the Bengali title for the target page. 76 pageviews vs 68k at target - seems rather unnecessary based on that. English users search for English titles. ChompyTheGogoat [ Bleat | Munched ] 20:54, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

Keep. Mentioned at the target: On 18 September 2026, the Election Commission of India allotted the name Gonotantrik Trinamool Congress.... The redirect was created very recently, so the traffic isn't very meaningful. Newly created pages can take as long as 90 days before they're indexed by external search engines, and a lot of traffic comes from external searches. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:41, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

External search results also show that Gonotantrik often does appear even in English-language sources in relation to other organisations. (eg. Gonotantrik Chhatra Shakti, Gonotantrik Sangskar Jote) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 21:53, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

I'd keep this if that's an official translation. English speakers sometimes encounter non-English words, and they need to end up in the correct place. Also, most of the article is about legal disputes over which group gets which name, which suggests that we should not only keep this, but probably also create Ganatantrik Trinamool Congress (an alternate transliteration that looks more popular in the news articles).

Duel Monsters

Recently User:162 etc. retargeted this redirect to point to Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters rather than the card game. This is understandable since Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game is entirely about the real-life trading card game, but at the same time, the fictional Duel Monsters game is played in far more than just the original series. I'm thinking it should either point to the main Yu-Gi-Oh! article or be disambiguated. The only thing that will decide this is a d-d-duel! I mean discussion. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:54, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

At the very least, Duel Monsters is mentioned in the plot summary of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, making it not a good thing to redirect to the first anime series. That's putting aside the fact that it's dubious Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters is even remotely close to a common name for the first show in the West, it may be better to simply call it Yu-Gi-Oh!

While the SNP is the oldest of these parties by a significant margin and the most electorally successful, there are enough others that this redirect is confusing and potentially misleading. My suggestion is to delete or possibly to retarget to the Independence for Scotland Party and add a hatnote. UltrasonicMadness (talk) 18:08, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

Keep the two correct ones University of Springfield.

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)

This could be re-directed to Real Sociedad or (highly unlikely) Society (disambiguation) (Spanish for "sociedad"). Noteworthy to see that Google Search results show more results for the La Liga club than the El Salvador municipality, plus back when this redirect was created, the target at the time was too short than the club's page at that time. — SimpleObjects-9ei 🍂/🌰/🤗 (see talk) 14:22, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

• I do think of Real Sociedad first, but I'm a football fan, and I note that Sociedad alone isn't even listed as one of the nicknames in the article. I see in the hatnote there's a Honduran C.D. Real Sociedad too. As things stand, though, I'm leaning keep, with the idea that the Salvadoran municipality is the only thing properly referred to in English as Sociedad alone. --BDD (talk) 15:04, 12 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep. The football clubs are only partial title matches (ineligible for disambiguation). External search results don't exclude partial title matches, so don't necessary reflect the primary topic for Sociedad by itself. I've added a hatnote to Sociedad, El Salvador on the off chance that someone does expect to be redirected to one of the football clubs, but as BDD notes, Sociedad isn't a nickname of the clubs. The clubs are more likely to be known as (La) Real ("[the] Royal") or variations thereof than Sociedad ("Society") per the nicknames listed in the respective articles for the Spanish/Basque and Honduran clubs. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 15:56, 12 October 2026 (UTC)

Hangry

• Hangry → Hypoglycemia#Signs and symptoms  (talk · links · history · stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Vague informal slang redirecting to a page about a specific medical condition. Could be taken as a jab at people with said condition by implying that they are "hangry" all the time.

This song is not mentioned in the target article or Polo G. However, this subject is mention in a list of songs in both Burna Boy discography and Polo G discography, but neither one of them have any context for this subject, as well as the fact that there are two potential targets, it is not clear why one target should be preferred over the other.

• Delete as there is no secondary coverage of the song and it is most likely not notable enough to warrant a redirect.

I agree there is confusion about Soviet unit names, which is all the more reason we should have our redirects correct to avoid confusion. The unit did not have this title in 1957, nor was it formed in 1957 as the IP points out below. These should be deleted to avoid confusion, particularly to prevent linking to incorrect targets.

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. However, looks like this redirect had an article here that was WP:BLARed in 2008: . Steel1943 (talk) 12:10, 15 September 2026 (UTC)

• ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. It shows up as a stage in Mario Kart 64 (and probably other MK games too), where there's a brief mention, but nothing substantial. Ditto as the final level of Super Mario World, and probably other Mario games too. I don't think we can keep these at either target, so lean delete unless anyone else has a better idea at least. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:23, 15 September 2026 (UTC)
• 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)

• Delete Per Consarn. Ignoring the question of whether Mushroom Kingdom itself is notable, this page is unsalvageable plotcruft and has no obvious place to redirect it yet. It can always be recreated as a redirect, or per WP:RETURNTORED, an article. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:02, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
• Comment - I completely disagree that this venue lacks the 'jurisdiction' to potentially restore Mushroom Kingdom something that has been deleted at AfD. For one, it has been long enough (this discussion would not be an immediate objection to the previous one). There is also a vast number of precedents where one deletion venue reverses the course of another. A seemingly good solution can cause unintended consequences in other realms and are often ill-considered (as is being seen in this instance and others). Most importantly, consensus can change! — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 05:00, 8 October 2026 (UTC)

  That aside, Bowser's Castle is usually part of the Koopa Kingdom or, or alternatively, the Dark Land (which is one of many lands of the Mushroom World; there are seemingly eight or so on the same continent as the aforementioned), so I am not sure redirecting this there would be appropriate (unless part of the aforementioned was noted and it was covered well there). — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 05:19, 8 October 2026 (UTC)

  The AfD was in 2024, and at the RfD for Mushroom Kingdom in 2025 where all AfD participants were pinged, there still was no consensus on a restoration. However, what could work is a Draft:Mushroom Kingdom based off the pre-redirect content. Jay 11:02, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

• Retarget to Bowser, which mentions his castle a few times, and is the logical location to elaborate on the topic if due.
  If Mushroom Kingdom is restored, then it makes sense to retarget simply because it has a dedicated section on the topic, however, I'm not sure it should discuss that topic. The article referred to Bowser's castle being part of the Mushroom Kingdom, but Bowser is usually depicted as the sovereign of his own kingdom (known variously in different games/media as the "Koopa Kingdom", "Bowser's Kingdom", the "Dark Land"). It seems to me that the article was confused as to its scope, and may have been intending to cover the broader setting of Mario franchise beyond just Peach's Mushroom Kingdom. If it's restored, parts of it will need to be rewritten and it would probably need to be moved to some other title if it's to keep the section on Bowser's castle. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 17:15, 20 October 2026 (UTC)

• Noting the comment on Tavix's talk page from Jay (talk · contribs): "All the links at the #New national teams section are for the under-19 teams, and that includes Serbia and Montenegro whose under-19 team is a redlink now." That's accurate for the bulleted list at that section. I should have been more specific: I was referring to the prose before that list, which indeed links to general country names, not sports teams of any sort. So I agree with his earlier comment that this is a content issue. My conclusion is still delete, though. Unanswered is the question of whether the country of Serbia and Montenegro ever had such a team. If it did, delete per WP:REDLINK. If it didn't, delete because it never existed. --BDD (talk) 20:29, 19 September 2026 (UTC)

  If it existed, which the target says it did, from 1992 to 2006, does it deserve an article, or is this redirect sufficient? If it didn't exist, and the target is wrong, the entry needs to be removed from the target, and this redirect deleted. However, there is an incoming link from FIBA Europe and I tried hard, but couldn't find where it is linked in that article. Jay 08:15, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:REDLINK. Serbia and Montenegro separated in 2006. Just one year later, Serbia hosted (and won!) the 2007 FIBA Under-19 World Championship. I think it's safe to say this team existed, brand new teams don't get to host and win major tournaments like that. -- Tavix ^(talk) 16:37, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

  And interestingly, there is no mention whatsoever of Montenegro on that page. The team may have just been representing Serbia after all, then. --BDD (talk) 14:52, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep this redirect and retarget Bill Shakespeare there too (it should have been bundled). "William" is often shortened to "Bill", even in reference to the bard, especially in comedic contexts (see eg. Bill (2015 film)), and external search results include the bard. Seeems to me that the bard is the primary topic for both the formal "William" and the informal "Bill". I could understand treating this as a case of minor differences signalling a distinct topic if any of the entries at the disambiguation page were titled "Bill" not "William", but this is not the case; all the entries listed are Williams too, so I doubt any has a stronger claim to "Bill" than the others. (The closest is the entry for William Shakespeare (Australian singer), who also went by "Billy", not "Bill".) – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:07, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

  Referring to the bard informally as "Bill" isn't even just a recent thing. You can find lots of examples of authors doing this in publications from the 1800s on Google Books. (eg. Boyesen's Social Strugglers (1893)). People have been doing this for a very long time. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 20:34, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

  William Shakespeare (American football) overwhelmingly went by Bill. ~2026-48129-52 (talk) 13:30, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

  It should definitely be mentioned in the article. The article currently only mentions "Bill Shakespeare" in the references.

  As an American football player, he was active in the 1930s (until WW2). It seems unlikely that readers would be more likely to be looking for a player from the 30s than the bard of Avon. Though if I use a VPN to search from the United States, a couple (but not most) of the front page results on Google do refer to him. Could be added to the hatnote, though it would then be 3 lines long. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:03, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

  I've boldly added a mention of "Bill Shakespeare" to the lead of William Shakespeare (American football) as it's well supported by the references in the article that he went by this name. – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:14, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

  @NerdyEpiscopalian: Does the 1930s American football player change things, or do you still think the bard of Avon is the primary topic? – Scyrme (talk/solidarity) 14:17, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Scyrme, thanks for checking. I think the Bard is still the primary topic—and that the hatnote to the disambiguation page still suffices for anyone who might be looking for the American football player. Based on search results online and that the American football player doesn't appear to get a lot of referral traffic from the disambig (which is where I would expect him to get referral traffic if people going to either of these redirects were looking for him—since they would be directed to the disambig page (or to the bard and then click on the disambig in the hatnote) and then be able to click on the link to his article there). Not sure if that was fully sensical, but all that to say—no change to my opinion. NerdyEpiscopalian (talk) 14:31, 14 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep and Retarget Bill Shakespeare. Not a slam dunk for me, but it seems like a slightly better option than the disambiguation page. It's at least worth getting the two in sync before potential future discussions. --BDD (talk) 21:13, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

• I note that none of the transclusions are in article or wikipedia namespaces (apart from a single occurrence in an old RfD); almost all are in user sandboxes or user subpages entitled "citing sources", created with the edit history "automatic post as part of sandbox guided tour". I can't quickly find where the sources for that guided tour live, but I assume that the typo existed in a previous version and has now been fixed. Assuming that to be the case, delete to avoid future recurrence. Rosbif73 (talk) 08:32, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

  I found the guided tour and walked through it. It recommends "Reflist" but may have had a typo in the past (it's run a bunch of JavaScript that I didn't have access to). Also, the recommendation in the tour required/requires new editors to manually type "Reflist" into the Visual Editor template selection dialog, which may have been subject to error. Without a bunch of further research, I don't know if the errors were caused by a typo in the JavaScript instructions or by editors making typos. Given the volume of errors, I suspect the former. In any event, "relist" seems like a likely typo for "reflist" and does not appear to be used by XfD, which is all or mostly script-driven anyway, so a shortcut template name should not be needed. [Caveat: This whole talk page post contains a bunch of guesses and surmises. Actual facts are welcome.] – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:51, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

  I'm inclined to think the latter, people misreading "reflist" or auto-correct auto-correcting it. There are 43423 "User:*/citing sources" pages, and the ones having the typoed template don't seem to be clustered. Anomie⚔ 21:53, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

• Delete seems a very good and neat solution. SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:51, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
• don't do anything yet, just so this gets relisted

then delete per above, including an extremely weak addition of the possibility of confusion in non-xfd uses consarn _{(talk beige) (count ribs)} 18:46, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

I definitely welcome this RfD being relisted, if only for the comedy value. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:54, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

The most policy-based way to do this would be to make all of our !votes conditional. We can say "Oppose unless this RfD is relisted". This way, the closer needs to relist the discussion, but then they can immediately close it because WP:RELIST says A relisted discussion may be closed once consensus is determined, without necessarily waiting for another seven days. So, as soon as the discussion is relisted, all our dormant conditional !votes immediately become valid, and therefore consensus is reached but only immediately after relisting.

• Conditional support per nominator's rationale. Great and easy way to prevent these issues. Nobody uses that redirect anyway, everyone uses XFDcloser. FaviFake (talk) 20:42, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
• Maybe disambiguate given Template:RM relist but I don't see a problem with the current target otherwise given WP:RELIST goes to the deletion meaning and typos probably shouldn't prevent actual spellings. Crouch, Swale (talk) 22:21, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

  Well, they should if the template is virtually only ever used through a user script like XFDcloser. FaviFake (talk) 22:07, 2 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep - I share the concerns expressed by those who !voted to keep this just one year ago. The idea of a dab was also shut down there. There are over 500 existing links to this (now redirected) template. Given that this template is substituted, we cannot actually say how common the use of this is (though I will admit that XfD closer likely does get the vast use-majority these days). However, we should not count on gadgets continuing to function in the future and let our plain old relisting system decay. No opposition to something clever to prevent any potential disruptions to the mainspace when this happens to be misinvoked once in a blue moon. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 08:58, 8 October 2026 (UTC)

  we should not count on gadgets continuing to function in the future and let our plain old relisting system decay.
  What? Nothing stops us from creating a better shortcut like {{xfdr}} or {{rlist}}. Our plain old relisting system won't decay if this is deleted. FaviFake (talk) 00:49, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

  Those shortcuts are not better. This was the (15-year) original name of the template, which has existed for 20 years. Manual relisting will only be hampered if this cannot be substituted. Furthermore, people merely looking for this template for one reason or another may be severely set back. The benefit of deletion does not outweigh the boon of its retention. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 23:09, 9 October 2026 (UTC)

  Well, then I guess we just disagree. FaviFake (talk) 00:10, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Surprise!
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, J947 ‡ ^edits 01:47, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

I hope this is a joke relist? There are 5 "delete" !votes and one "keep" !vote... FaviFake (talk) 13:14, 10 October 2026 (UTC)

*Puts on serious hat* I think this is a good example of when a discussion should be relisted despite there being a consensus. For a litany of reasons, another week looks likely to change the outcome, and the outcome is reasonably important by RfD standards. J947 ‡ ^edits 02:29, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep per Godsy and arguments raised in the last RFD. I am persuaded by the arguments that the potential downside of deleting these redirects from longstanding former names for these templates is greater than the hypothetical benefit. This may be a common typo for {{Reflist}} but the error would be immediately evident in article space, which is likely why this is not a live issue. The erroneous usage in a few sandboxes is not actually harmful. —Myceteae‍🍄‍🟫 (talk) 09:23, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
• Comment: I genuinely don't have an opinion on the nomination, but as a reply to the "this shows up when people make a typo" folk - if this is kept, just set a namespace-conditional check so that if this template is not in the WP space (because as far as I am aware that is the only location the template should be used) it gives a more-visible error that directs the person to rethink their life choices. (please ping on reply) Primefac (talk) 20:18, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

  @Jonesey95 or anyone else, would you be able to create such a warning, and categorise the page in an error category when it is shown? FaviFake (talk) 08:04, 13 October 2026 (UTC)

• Keep I use this regularly, and have just now learned it was a redirect. (I did so long before the 2020 discussion that moved it.) I can try to get in the habit of using {{XfD relist}} instead, but I don't love the idea of such disruption just because someone elsewhere may make a mistake. --BDD (talk) 21:12, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep. I'm convinced by BDD's user experience combined with Primefac's idea for a more-visible error message. -- Tavix ^(talk) 16:41, 14 October 2026 (UTC)
• Keep and add an error message when used outside the Wikipedia namespace. It's probably not a good idea to delete a long-standing name for an important template because it could be a typo for a different template. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 03:27, 19 October 2026 (UTC)
