(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No particular problem with notability, however the article is a totally unjustified near-complete SPINOUT (technically still a spinoff). One quick look at Egypt–Gaza border#Buffer zone by Egypt shows how content-unbalanced the current situation. Advising to urgently merge into Egypt–Gaza border. Running this through AfD so more editors will see the procedure. That said, this is NOT ABOUT NOTABILITY but about content management. The article can also be seen as a CFORK. There is huge overlap.

< Multiple violations of Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons policy (unsourced speculation about a living individual) redacted AndyTheGrump (talk) 16:57, 14 October 2024 (UTC) >[reply]

It is curious that, as far as I know, the man himself has not requested his Wikipedia biography be removed. Perhaps he is unaware he has that right. Or perhaps he sees a benefit in it continuing to be the top result on Google for his name? SandrineWiki (talk) 16:21, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The general disclaimer is quite irrelevant in situations where sufficient information exists on which to make an informed judgment consistent with the values of Wikipedia (and one assumes protection of minors is one such value). If there is no actual Wikipedia policy that says <redacted AndyTheGrump (talk) 17:14, 14 October 2024 (UTC) > should be considered for deletion with a full and thorough debate of the facts, I would be quite surprised.[reply]

I am pretty sure the above redactions are wholly unnecessary and potentially indefensible given the perversity of their effect here. I find it curious, for example, that the matters I spoke of above, now redacted, were freely discussed in the first deletion discussion. They are still visible. "Wikipedia" is still facilitating their discovery (while disavowing general responsibility for their publishing). All I have done is restate the case with the added data points that six years have passed, certain matters relevant to this subject have become newsworthy, and this man still has a LinkedIn profile that says things relevant to those news stories. Given all that, I thought now might be the time Wikipedia editors choose to make an informed choice using the methods they state are the approved means for such things. I am being cautious about what I say now, while having no idea why such cautious is necessary. I made no allegations, criminal or otherwise. Nothing I said was my own invention, it is all easily discovered or inferred, some by the very source I did indeed actually provide to justify my reasoning (the BBC news story). — Preceding unsigned comment added by SandrineWiki (talkcontribs) 18:16, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The discography and chart history of a nation's Eurovision entries has no relevance to the country's participation in Eurovision. Beyond the songs being Eurovision entries (which are already covered in more detail at Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest), how they charted in their country or elsewhere does not have an impact on the nation's participation history nor its success/placement at the contest.

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is not an official title, it's just a debatable list of the strongest opposition party leaders and some BS. Hungarian system is not the US two-party system, it was a pluralist one between 1990-2010, after 2010 it changed to a dominant-party system similar to Singapore, and now it seem to be close to two two-party system (but actually an extra-parlamentary party almost eradicated the support in polls for opposition in Parliament, but they have MEP-s at all). No idea how stable this era is, and there is still no official opposition leader, like HM most loyal opposition head in UK or Congress/Senate minority leaders in UK. Péter Magyar is just self-proclaimed opposition leader. The article not exists any other wiki, except the Hungarian, currently under deletion talks, with pretty much consensus on delete, and actually this one is the original article, that one is the translation. Huwiki deletion talks: [4] Hörgő (talk) 14:36, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, the article says that "is an unofficial title". This term is used in everyday use (journalism, political public speaking, etc.), just a quick Google search proves this. In English wiki, several countries have such article, and not only those countries who adopted Westminster system, see, for instance, Leader of the Opposition (Croatia), Leader of the Opposition (Germany), Leader of the Opposition (Portugal), Leader of the Opposition (Israel), Leader of the Opposition (Albania), and even Leader of the Opposition (Singapore), if it was mentioned, a dominant-party system. --Norden1990 (talk) 16:55, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

1) He has two papers, and while one is cited 59 times the one is not cited. Hence there is no notability under WP:NPROF.
2) As mentioned in nomination, many of the sources don't verify (site not found).
3) A web search on either variant of his names only brings up pages that list his job and one customer review he made of a car.

Another non-notable individual, but may together with the two other such articles perhaps be merged into one? Barely anything can be said about the individual Theodore, the topic of the article, who died aged 1 or thereabouts.

The primary focus of the article revolves around a recent event (his arrest in Israel in October 2024), which does not establish long-term notability or significance. There is no significant coverage of Loffredo outside of this incident, and the article lacks in-depth coverage from multiple reliable and independent sources about his overall career or contributions as a journalist.

Internet Archive being down I cannot find what Baker says, but he does list a lot of POs. and this is also a rail spot.

  • Keep There's enough here to show GNG. She's written a book that Martin van Beynen has called "bestselling". It created a lot of publicity, for example, John Campbell interviewed her for 10 min on Radio New Zealand. She gets keynote speaking slots and, whilst that's nothing unusual, it is unusual when Stuff reports on that. She's been invited to give a talk at TEDxChristchurch and it takes quite something to get invited to TEDx. The pieces by Kurt Bayer (NZHerald; based in Christchurch), Eleanor Black (Stuff), and Now to Love (which belongs to Are Media) go into plenty enough depth to fulfil the criteria of three independent reliable sources. And all those sources are in the article already. All up, that's an easy keep. Schwede66 04:23, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The Waikato Times piece is a promotional piece for the business awards. The Now to Love piece is just her interview with Women's Daily. The other Stuff piece is also a promotional piece.

  • Keep plenty of media coverage from reliable outlets here to establish GNG. David Palmer//cloventt (talk) 20:59, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    There is a lot of media coverage but it is promotional/non-independent.
    Refs 1-4 are Tarawa herself, they shouldn't be used in the article except in limited aboutself uses, let alone go to notability.
    Ref 5, supplied piece from the festival she appeared at.
    Ref 6, women's day interview
    Ref 7 is about Cooper's conviction and just drops a promotion for her book in it... which is odd. Bit of coverage here but not much and it is still in relation to Gloriavale.
    Ref 8 same coverage but more blatantly promotional this time
    Refs 9 and 10 have the exact same wording as refs 7 and 8 which makes me believe this is some promotional thing sent out to papers, that or they just simply copied the Herald, either way the refs adds nothing to notability.
    Ref 11 is a promotional piece.
    Ref 12 is a promotional interview
    Ref 13 is an interview
    Ref 14 is another interview that involves promoting the book
    Refs 15-16 are reprints of Herald refs mentioned earlier
    Ref 17 uses same wording as the other promotional pieces
    Ref 18 is a promotional interview
    Ref 19 is a promotional interview from women's day and the same ref as 6.
    Ref 20 isn't promotional or an interview but very brief coverage (3 lines) as part of her grandfather's death
    Ref 21 is an interview
    Ref 22 is from Tarawa herself
    Ref 23 is a promotional piece for the Matamata business awards
    Ref 24 is a broken url but it is a very brief interview
    Refs 25-27 are interviews
    Ref 28 is promotional
    Ref 29 opinion piece and it provides little coverage anyhow
    Ref 30 is brief coverage of the book
    Ref 31 is dead but appears to be a blog from an unreliable source
    Ref 32 is about someone else's death
    Ref 33 is the exact same as ref 32.
    Ref 34 is the same as 9, 9 is presumably a reprint of it. Contains the exact same sentences used in the other promotional pieces
    Ref 35 is about Gloriavale but suddenly just drops in the same promotional content about Tarawa's book seen before.
    Ref 36 is a radio interview, not even an RS.
    Ref 37 is a podcast interview.
    Ref 38 is a promotional piece for some event she was invited to
    Ref 39 is another piece on Gloriavale that just suddenly includes the same promotional content as else where, it is really odd and I cannot see a reason for it other than being sponsored/paid for it
    So yes, there is a lot of media coverage, but little of it is independent, most of it is from the same source, and plenty of it is promotional. The fact that two identical articles are used as a reference right after each other just looks like COI/Paid editing with refbombing so it looks notable. The user who wrote most of this article is now blocked for copyvios but from looking at his contributions I think he may have been a paid editor.

  • Keep per Schwede66.-Gadfium (talk) 23:25, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete, or maybe easier, rescope (retitle) the article to represent coverage of her book. [On reflection, “delete” doesn’t accurately represent my opinion, and I am neutral. 23:50, 7 October 2024 (UTC)] None of the sources appear to be doing any fact-checking, and are covering her story as though it were independent reporting, so functionally what they are covering is her story, and most closely her book. Ultimately, media coverage of her herself most resembles something like coverage WP:VICTIM, where as an individual she isn’t that notable, but for the fact that she was the centre of some event, and then wrote it all down and sold the story. Reading that guideline: Outside of her book, or her story, obviously there isn’t some higher-level event-centred article to incorporate her into, and so if we are to just keep the article as is (not an absolutely awful outcome, per my “weak” !vote), her testimony, which should have lead to an article about her own life and experiences, just becomes a page about her. Not optimal, given how much we have to rely on her as primary sourcing, but there is clearly secondary reporting on her talking about her story/book. — HTGS (talk) 23:46, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I initially draftified this BLP, which was created by IOmParkashSarwanBheel, who clearly has a AUTOBIO/COI based on their username. The BLP is PROMO and contains WP:OR. Later, they submitted the draft for review and after I failed the AFC review, the creator unilaterally moved the BLP to the main namespace. It clearly fails the GNG as well NPOLITICIAN. Additionally, it remains PROMO, contains WP:OR, and has COI/AUTOBIO issues. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 08:09, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can say that this article is totally based on reality, If this article is against the policies then you may. IOmParkashSarwanBheel (talk) 08:16, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for taking the time to review the article. I appreciate your feedback and want to address the concerns you've raised.
Conflict of Interest (COI)/Autobiography: While I understand the concern regarding my username and the potential perception of a conflict of interest, I assure you that my intention was to highlight the notable contributions of Advocate Sarwan Kumar Bheel. I have attempted to adhere to Wikipedia’s standards of neutrality, but I recognize that my proximity to the subject may have influenced my initial approach. I am open to collaborating with other editors to ensure the article maintains a neutral point of view.
Notability (GNG and NPOLITICIAN): I have revised the article to focus on factual details and removed promotional language, aligning it with the general notability guideline (GNG). However, I understand that the notability of the subject must be supported by significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. If the sources currently included are insufficient, I would be grateful for guidance or assistance in identifying additional references that better demonstrate the subject's notability.
Original Research (WP) and Promotional Tone: I have worked on removing original research and subjective language from the article, striving for a more balanced and encyclopedic tone. I understand that it might still require further adjustments, and I am open to your suggestions on specific areas that need improvement.
Article Move to Main Namespace: Moving the draft to the main namespace after the AFC review was not intended to circumvent the process but rather to seek further feedback. If this action was inappropriate, I apologize, and I am willing to work within the proper review process to ensure the article meets Wikipedia’s standards.
I am committed to improving the article in line with Wikipedia’s policies and appreciate your guidance. If there are any specific revisions or additional sources you would recommend, I am more than willing to make those changes.
Thank you once again for your feedback, and I look forward to your response. IOmParkashSarwanBheel (talk) 08:23, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
IOmParkashSarwanBheel, If you hadn't unilaterally moved the draft to the main namespace, I would have definitely helped you fix the issues. However, since you did, I had no choice but to take it to AfD.Saqib (talk I contribs) 09:19, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should be deleted because it lacks significant coverage in independent, reliable sources, which raises questions about its notability.

Sleaford, Newark-on-Trent (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

There is no evidence that this ward is notable. There is no evidence that a "suburb" called Sleaford exists, and it is not included in List of United Kingdom locations: Si-Sm#Sl. There are several references which appear to be fascinating books about the history of Newark's elections, but which do not appear to mention Sleaford ward. All I can find is that it exists as a ward electing one councillor to Newark Town Council. As explained in the rather confusing "Geography" section, it is not a ward for elections to the next level of government, Newark and Sherwood District: see 2023 Newark and Sherwood District Council election. There seems to be no accessible map showing the boundary of this ward. (The geog coords given lead to Bede House Lane, postcode NG24 1PY, which Mapit.com puts as being in Beacon ward for district council elections, but unfortunately Mapit.com does not mention wards at town council level).

As far as I can see, all we can verifiably say about "Seaford, Newark" is that is a ward electing one councilor to Newark Town Council, being one of 7 wards. That is not enough for a Wikipedia article.

The article Newark-on-Trent#Governance mentions the town council, stating that it has 18 councillors elected from 4 wards, with a reference to an archived 2011 source showing 5 wards. I suggest that paragraph should be updated to reflect the current situation, where there are 7 wards, perhaps showing the number of councillors per ward (ranges from 1 to 5), and that Sleaford, Newark-on-Trent (and probably the other wards) should redirect there. PamD 07:29, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK WP:SOFIXIT: I've updated the information about Newark Town Council (which was a red link until a few minutes ago) in Newark-on-Trent#Governance. PamD 07:44, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: If this article survives, either as an article or a redirect, it needs to be added to Sleaford_(disambiguation). PamD 07:51, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Correction: I now see that the map referenced at currently ref 5, when zoomed in, shows the boundary of the ward, which appears to be the southern corner of the Bridge district council ward. But I doubt that even this is enough for an article. PamD 08:01, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      The book review the film on pages 84–86 and mentions the film on pages 9, 10, 11, and 357. The book notes: "Commentary: Dinosaurs ... The Terrible Lizards is an unexpectedly polished-looking film, especially in light of the limited resources from which Wah Chang created it. The animation is skilled and the puppets are excellent, without exception. Chang managed to save some time and effort by fashioning more than one head which could be fitted onto the same body, thus converting a Triceratops into a Styracosaurus, then into a Monoclonius, then into a Chasmosaurus, and so on. This tactic helped allow him to parade a small smorgasbord of saurians across the screen, with no fewer than 13 different prehistoric species glimpsed or featured during the film's ten-minute run time. Throughout the film, Chang adds little touches that are unusual for an "educational" film, and that reflect the care he always brought to his art."

Gr 1–8—This lively, animated film shows the evolution of dinosaurs, iden tifies major types, and describes their physical characteristics. The terms are explained and defined to make them more understandable to younger students, and names are superimposed on the screen. In explaining the environment during the time of the dinosaurs, however, not enough information is included on the changes that took place on the earth, and only one theory about the ending of this period is provided. The organization of the material is clear. The only inconsistency is the inclusion of a fully evolved man and woman that are irrelevant to the time period of the film. An interesting film, useful for individual or group viewing."

      The abstract notes: "Dinosaurs, the Terrible Lizards (Revised) ($50), from AIMS Media, is a 10-minute videotape that features the locations of dinosaur finds on a world map; gives a very brief synopsis of the evolution of life on Earth; and focuses on showing, naming, and describing various types of dinosaur. This program is intended for children aged 7–13 years, is very appealing to children, but contains little scientific information."

      The review notes: "Although Dinosaurs...the Terrible Lizards will probably be viewed by only a few fortunate students in the junior high level science classes in the Los Angeles City Schools, its realistic cinematic monsters are as lifelike as any used in a major studio production. Largely a natural history documentary, the film was produced in color by Wah Chang, of "Projects Unlimited" fame, and animated by Douglas Beswick for the Los Angeles Board of Education, and brings to life most of the dinosaurs of the past. There are approximately twelve to fifteen different types of these beasts in the film, including Brontosaurus, Ceolophysis, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Monoclonius, and the Tyranosaurus Rex. Narrated in laymen's terms, the film explains the general lifecycle of dinosaurs and why they became extinct. It also describes through diagrams how large some dinosaurs were: one diagram compares a Brontosaurus to an ordinary one-story house."

Nominated for deletion as my search did not yield significant coverage per WP:GNG. Most available sources come from team websites for from fan sites or blogs which WP:SPORTCRIT states is not valid. My search yielded two results that would be considered reliable secondary sources, but as WP:3REFS states in most cases, three references would be needed to establish notability. Reliable source analysis from my search:

While your points on the popularity of the NFL and coaches are valid, Wikipedia does have specific guidelines for inclusion into the namespace. One such criteria is WP:GNG which states that subjects of articles must have significant, non-trivial, independent, secondary coverage. As required by AfD, I preformed a google search on the subject, and returned sources that are not able to establish notability. Blogs, fan pages, and team/NFL pages are not able to establish notability. Wibbit23 (talk) 04:44, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I am aware that it is an essay and that two can be suitable (hence "most cases"), however, I included 3REFS as the two sources I found were not enough to establish notability due to the first one focusing on the team he was leaving four years ago and how they would fill the vacant slot and the second being a very brief overview of his career.

General failure to demonstrate notability. Article purely sourced from its own website and then International (CWI) (WP:ABOUTSELF violation). Attempt to find reliable sources showed no notable coverage in terms of news coverage. Some results appear on Google Scholar but from those I was able to access in English there are few mentions and those appeared trivial and more to do with outside organisations such as SYRIZA.

Article has been appropriately maintenance tagged for several years now yet improvement has not appeared.

Semi-advertorialized article about a filmmaker, not properly referencing any strong claim to passing inclusion criteria for filmmakers. The attempted notability claim here is that his work exists, which is not an automatic notability freebie in and of itself -- we would need to see some evidence of distinction, such as notable awards and/or WP:GNG-worthy coverage and analysis about him and his work in media and/or books. But this is referenced entirely to primary sources self-published by people or organizations directly affiliated with the statements they're referencing, which is not support for notability, and the article claims absolutely nothing about him that would be "inherently" notable without better sourcing for it than this.
Further, there are no inbound links here from any other page in Wikipedia but the disambiguation page at Bob Connolly, and this appears to be a conflict of interest as the creator (who created it in 2013 and has occasionally returned to edit the article as recently as August 2024) appears to have self-identified as Bob Connolly in past posts to Talk:Lee Aaron, but even people who do properly pass our notability and sourcing standards still aren't entitled to write or curate their own articles themselves.

NEW NOMINATIONS

[edit]

Category:Category:Washington Redskins currentteam parameter articles

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Superseded by Category:Washington Commanders currentteam parameter articles, the current name of the team. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 16:24, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Category:Washington Football Team currentteam parameter articles

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Superseded by Category:Washington Commanders currentteam parameter articles, the current name of the team. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 16:24, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Amirov brothers

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: I don't see the point of such a small category for navigating between two people. The article on one brother points to the other brother, and vice versa. Geschichte (talk) 07:38, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Joseon scholar-officials

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: I think we should split this category, as a non-defining intersection. There's no parent scholar-officials Mason (talk) 02:44, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Pitcairn Islands people convicted of rape

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: I think we should broaden this category because there's no parent category Pitcairn Islands criminals, and I think that creating a parent category right now would just be redudant Mason (talk) 01:04, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think the category is legitimate, although there are questions about what categories it should be under. I now think it shouldn't be under "British people convicted of rape" because people from the British Overseas Territories aren't classified as British people on Wikipedia, there are various categories relating to these territories.

Redirects

[edit]

Wikipedia:Requests for creation

[edit]

Propose retarget to Wikipedia:Articles for creation. The reason is the article wizard is for if someone has an article that they want to get started on but do not have any ideas, not to request an article be created. Awesome Aasim 18:11, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

buccal organ(s)

[edit]

closed before with consensus that we're not biologists. trying again with the same rationale (that being that mouths have other organs, like teeth and tongues), so i hope y'all studied your chompy boys. still not sure if retargeting to mouth would be the best idea though cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 17:46, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

T:WPMHA

[edit]

~Two incoming links. With the existence of the "TM" alias, TM:WPMHA is a totally sufficient shortcut for navigating to this page, in an effort to keep a confusing PNR out of namespace. Utopes (talk / cont) 21:08, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't disagree that the redirect predates "TM:". But 2014 is really not that old. Pseudo-namespace titles have been majorly contentious for much longer than a decade. Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2013 November 18#T:WPTECH is an example of a heated discussion, but T: titles have been getting nominated since 2010 and earlier (on principle of being T: titles). So I'd hardly call 2014 a "longstanding example", especially as this title has never stood the test of time. As an example, T:AC has been the subject of 3 RfDs. T:WPMHA has been the subject of none, so there's no precedent of !keeping. It's only been "unearthed" as of today, basically. Compounded with WP:NORUSH to discuss this PNR sooner.
We don't "generally keep" cross namespace redirects on the premise of "being old", so I'm really not sure where that statement comes from. Being old does not inherently give a title immunity. Especially so if the title is otherwise problematic, which cross-namespace redirects inherently are, especially ones from mainspace where our casual readers stick to. The "problematic"-factor is offset by some level of demonstrable utility, which is why such titles might stick.
Quick aside: pseudo-namespace redirects =/= cross-namespace redirects. WP:PNRs are designed to allow for easily linking to a title, without the need to write out the whole prefix for the namespace. "Template" might only be 8 letters, but if you're typing it ten or so times a day for monitoring purposes, those keyclicks add up. PNR utility can come from either use in wikilinks, as well as use in a search bar.
So let's examine demonstrable utility. This title was created in 2014, exclusively as a compromise when T:WPMA was getting deleted. Since its creation, it has only been used by one person, the creator, on this talk page. As far as T: titles might go, 1 usage per decade is on the low end. The wikilinks are easy to adjust. Pertaining to "use in a search bar", well, the TM: alias makes it easy to access ANY template now, so all search-bar-efficiency rationales are essentially caput for T: titles. (Unless, for some reason, there's a template on WP which is so vital that its "utterly necessary to shorten 'TM:' to 'T:', saving a singular keypress". That might've been the case when 7 key-presses were being saved by "T:", but now that it's down to 1, I'd be shocked if that's the case for any template on WP.)
In closing, cross-namespace-redirects from mainspace are always unideal. Casual readers should not be accidentally falling through a trapdoor only to end up in the Wikipedia backrooms, if they can help it. T:kort, T:SCC among others, are content articles on in mainspace which "T:" titles actively infringe on. So PNRs of this type should be kept to a minimum, as they interfere with reader navigation to actual articles. Now that the TM: alias is a feature that exists, I predict most (if not all) "T:" titles will be deleted before the end of 2024, but that's just my own prediction and idk if that'll truly occur or not. But this I feel is one of the more uncontroversial ones to go; its a comparably easy two-link repair, and a solo nom to test the waters before a potential group nom of other T: titles.

  • Keep it's old, it is getting used (as determined by page views, not by count of links from current revisions of pages on en.wp), it is unambiguous and I'm not seeing any evidence of it having caused any actual (as opposed to theoretical) problems in the last 10 years. We need more than that to justify deletion. Thryduulf (talk) 14:59, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Learn something every day. I wasn't aware that T363757 added TM: as alias to Template: on English Wikipedia five months ago – in May – until now, and I'm probably not the only active editor for which this is the case. I see that ever since the T: prefix was snowed under back in December 2010, a subset of these have been picked off one or a few at at time. We currently have just 63 categorized redirects to template namespace and Special:PrefixIndex/T: finds 79 pages. (79−63)=16 non-template T: prefix redirects:

Ryl

[edit]

I was surprised to end up at this target. "Ryls" are mentioned, sort of in passing, but there are equal mentions in articles about multiple other books by Baum (including The Runaway Shadows and Nelebel's Fairyland), L. Frank Baum bibliography indicates it is part of the title for multiple of his works. It is also the name of the protagonist in Pastures of the Blue Crane and, in capitals, is an acronym for Radical Youth Leauge. The current target is a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Knook from 2011, but the closing admin (SilkTork) said there was no agreement on [a] target. with two different places (neither of which include a mention in their present version) suggested. On google the primary topic is a brand of iced tea, but we don't seem to have content about that. I'm not sure what the best option is here, maybe disambiguation? Thryduulf (talk) 17:04, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. I've been pinged as I created the redirect after the AfD, but I don't think I have anything useful to contribute, other than to feel that Thryduulf's suggestion of disambiguation appears to be useful. SilkTork (talk) 17:40, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ps triple

[edit]

testing the mass xfd tool, sorry in advance for any errors. a meme, from a guy named chad warden, who parodied the gen 7 console war. the only contexts in which this name is used are as references to chad, as a siivagunner meme (which is actually also chad warden), and in miscellaneous contexts in which "ps" doesn't stand for "playstation". (un)fortunately, chad and the meme associated with him aren't notable cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 16:17, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? There's nothing wrong with the formatting. "Day, Month, Year" is totally plausible. The issue is a lack of coverage of this date in mainspace, for a mainspace search term where readers predict, and expect, to end up in mainspace when typing it. A blue-link here is misleading to prospective searchers, when we have no mainspace coverage for such a term. Utopes (talk / cont) 05:19, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay then, Retarget to Portal:Current events/2006 November 26 where there are plenty of mainspace links to events that happened on that day. -- Tavix (talk) 13:09, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Retargeting would only justify creation of similar redirects. Furthermore, the use of multiple commas is not usually standard.

I know you didn't explicitly cite WP:PANDORA, but "...would only justify creation of similar redirects" is pretty much entirely what a WP:PANDORA argument is-- so I'm going to direct you over to WP:GETBACKINTHERE. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 14:52, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Retarget as per Tavix and Utopes. The Day/Month/Year formatting is completely plausible, and the only thing at issue is an extra comma-- which, one extra character added by accident shouldn't impact plausibility enough to delete.
