Read how to nominate a redirect for discussion.

Sha with dot below

[edit]

I could not verify if this letter exists. No mention in the target. Janhrach (talk) 17:36, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oe with acute

[edit]

The only mention on the web I could find is in the Wikipedia article List of Cyrillic letters, but the mentioned language is Bashkir, not Selkup. Janhrach (talk) 17:32, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Shha with diaeresis

[edit]

Zero relevant hits on Google. Hoax? Janhrach (talk) 17:21, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TicketSmarter

[edit]

Subsidiary not mentioned at the target. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:39, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2031 Cricket World Cup qualification

[edit]

Redirect to a redirect, hence, the section for qualification doesn't exist there. There's also not relevant qualification info at the target if the redirect is bypassed (Cricket World Cup), making this a misleading redirect. Delete as WP:TOOSOON.

2031 ICC Women's Champions Trophy

[edit]

Not mentioned at target, making this a misleading redirect for anybody who searches it. Delete as WP:TOOSOON. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:31, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Snou Strait

[edit]

This was created as the result of this deletion discussion but the problem remains that I found no evidence that anyone uses this transliteration of the supposed Russian, if only because it's supposedly named after a Mr. Snow, whose name was therefore supposedly transliterated into Russian. We really need to avoid making up fake English names for things through our own transliterations, so this redirect needs to go. Mangoe (talk) 13:04, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Regardless of the validity of this spelling, an article existed at this title from 2006 until last week. Since then, the spelling has been picked up by several travel sites in both Russian ([1]) and English ([2]) according to my Google searches. I think keeping is warranted given this error has now been in circulation for some time. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 13:31, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the other way to look at it is that some writer here decided to make up his own transliteration which has enjoyed some extremely limited dissemination by unwary WP copiers. And therefore we should suppress that by refusing to continue to amplify this by deleting the redirect. One could argue that the correct English spelling should be the English name that the Russian is itself transliterating in the firest place, but the fact seems to remain that we don't have a legitimate authority for this.

Chick-Fila

[edit]

Admittedly a pretty weak nom due to the capitalization and the dash, but couldn't it also be possible that a learner who doesn't natively speak english would also be looking for the chicken tenders article (as to which chick fillet isn't a redirect to but also wouldn't mind it existing) User:Someone-123-321 (I contribute, Talk page so SineBot will shut up) 10:01, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I don't think people who are learning English as a second language would add the dash to be honest. I also think the more expected result for this redirect would be the current target. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:33, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pregnant man

[edit]

Which is right? LIrala (talk) 17:31, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say that both should link to the same place and that should be Transgender pregnancy. The section in Male pregnancy deals with two largely theoretical matters before very briefly getting on to things that actually exist in the real world. It doesn't even link to Transgender pregnancy, which is the most likely topic that the reader is actually looking for. Transgender pregnancy is much more likely to give the reader what they want and expect. I guess the other target might be acceptable if that section was substantially improved and included a link to Transgender pregnancy but, as it stands, the first redirect sends readers off to a poorly written section that doesn't give them what they are most likely looking for. This is likely to confuse and frustrate them. --DanielRigal (talk) 20:10, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vettukathi

[edit]

a south indian cutty boy (that's the formal term, right?), apparently mostly used to cut coconuts. seemingly probably notable on its own, but it's not mentioned in the article, and doesn't even seem to be a type of machete cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 13:11, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Romanian / moldovan language

[edit]

Delete. Poorly formatted and confusing redirect. Also no incoming links. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lucjim (talkcontribs) 18:17, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hindh

[edit]

"Hindh" isn't mentioned in that section (or anywhere, really). This would be borderline CSDable since there IS technically a prior consensus, but it's not the same target as it was when the previous discussion happened User:Someone-123-321 (I contribute, Talk page so SineBot will shut up) 05:22, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Transsexuals

[edit]

Despite being Transsexuals being useful, it should be moved to Category:Transsexual people instead, to avoid derogation. While for homosexuals, it's misleading, not every LGBTQ individual experiences homosexuality or identifies as homosexual. However, I wouldn't oppose a move to Category:Homosexual people.
