- Barangay 79 → Caloocan#Barangays (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
There are at least 3 Barangay 79s, and this one in Caloocan is not WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Howard the Duck (talk) 21:20, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Disambig per nom. Thryduulf (talk) 13:28, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- None of the Barangay 79s are notable, the one in Caloocan was redirected via AFD this week , and none are plausible search items. No one's looking for Barangay 79s. Howard the Duck (talk) 14:25, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, charlotte 👸♥ 22:09, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, as there's no particular info on this particular barangay. Disambiguation is inappropriate since all the disambiguated titles (if they existed) should still be deleted for the same reason. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 15:25, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as ambiguous. We already have Barangay 79, Caloocan, and have no other Barangay 79 pages. Jay 💬 16:06, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

Daesh Tunisia

- Daesh Tunisia → Ansar al-Sharia (Tunisia) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
I was highly confused by this redirect, and my external searching of "Daesh Tunisia" led me to uncover that apparently it is the "name of an invasive crustacean", per [1]. This blue crab might be invading Tunisia, but what it is ALSO invading is this article which has nothing to do with the subject. No mention of "daesh", "crab", "crustacean", or even "blue" at the target article. People looking for information on this blue crab would be very confused by the topic of Ansar al-Sharia, and if these two DO have a correlation, such a correlation is unclear with zero mention. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:27, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Daesh is ISIS. This redirect is calling them Tunisian ISIS. They were closer to Al-Qaeda.
- This name actually does get used in RS [2], but for Jund Al Khilafa-Tunisia or JAK-T, which we do not have a page on. We do have a page on the Algerian one though PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:02, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'm quite surprised we do not have a page on JAK-T PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:04, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'll try to have an article created. Mooonswimmer 04:43, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
- I'm quite surprised we do not have a page on JAK-T PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:04, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, charlotte 👸♥ 22:08, 5 November 2024 (UTC)- Keep Daesh is what the Arab world calls ISIS. The Office of Foreign Assets Control, UN Security Council, US Department of State, and European Union all mention "Daesh Tunisia" as an alias of JAK-T. Mooonswimmer 04:42, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete since we don't have an article about JAK-T or the crab. Ansar al-Sharia is not JAK-T. Jay 💬 10:41, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per Jay. And more generally this is not mentioned at target, hence it's time for it to meet the standard fate for such redirects. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:12, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Electrotechnology

- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was retarget to Electrical engineering technology. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:30, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
- Electrotechnology → Electrical engineering (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
According to the brief page history of this WP:DICDEF, electrotechnology is not simply "electrical engineering". From my external searches of this term, I'm getting mixed results. The question then becomes... what would be the best ___location to target this term? Because the term "electrotechnology" is not written anywhere at the target. It seems to be a valid question if the two terms are "apparently not 1:1 synonyms". But if they are synonyms, then this, too, should probs be indicated somewhere, and I feel something about "electrotechnology" could be added to the article to substantiate the redirect in that case. This would answer the question for people who use an "electrotechnology" search term to navigate Wikipedia, instead of seeking out the very long article on all of electrical engineering. As it happens, Electrical engineering technology also exists as an entirely different article. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:39, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Soft redirect to Wiktionary, where readers will learn this refers to both electrical technology and electrical engineering and can look up either or both if they subsequently desire. Thryduulf (talk) 14:43, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, charlotte 👸♥ 22:08, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget per nom to Electrical engineering technology, which is also the target of redirect electrical technology per Thryduulf. That target mentions in the first line of its lead that it is a subset of Electrical engineering. Jay 💬 09:02, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Grooving
edit
- The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
- The result of the discussion was retarget to Groovin'. Liz Read! Talk! 02:09, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
Wiktionary is probably not the best target and it used to redirect to Groovin'. That being said, searching up grooving on google would simply take you to the definition of groove, so I don't think the old target is a good option either. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 16:36, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Groovin', the best and closest thing we have for this target. Also hatnote the Groove (disambiguation) page (in addition to the Groovin' (disambiguation) page) at Groovin'. Something like, "Grooving redirects here. For other uses, see Groove and Groovin' disambigs", maybe. Utopes (talk / cont) 09:40, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

- Retarget to Groovin' for the least amount of confusion. JIP | Talk 13:32, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to Groovin' per above. Adding a wiktionary link at the bottom of the new target won't hurt. --Lenticel (talk) 01:30, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was procedural keep. The only editor advocating for deletion has been blocked as a sockpuppet. -- Tavix (talk) 21:58, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Starlow → Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Starlow debuted in this game, but she appears in later entries too. She doesn't have an entry on List of Mario franchise characters though. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 16:39, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- keep in absence of that entry, like popple (nintendo) redirecting to superstar saga when he was also in dream team cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 19:46, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

Very implausible for an WP:XNR TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 20:05, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Strong delete this could clearly refer to reload the page by purging the HTML/CSS/etc browser cache, for many social media sites. Such as the [F5]-meme used on 4chan -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 20:28, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Command doesn't work, someone made an WP:XNR redirect instead. Steel1943 (talk) 21:22, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete not a Wikipedia specific term. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:34, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Very implausible typo on top of the fact that it's in project space. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 19:56, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment redirect was created in 2007. A single transposition error of two adjacent characters is a very likely form of typo, frequently appearing amongst touch typists. -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 20:30, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Weak delete for the simple fact this redirect has no incoming links that are worth retaining. Steel1943 (talk) 21:24, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete We do not need a redirect for every possible typo, and this one does not seem particularly likely. QuicoleJR (talk) 21:26, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete but only due to being an implausible typo. That this is in project space is completely irrelevant. Thryduulf (talk) 00:28, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Slightly plausible error, but it's in project space. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 19:55, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment redirect was created in 2009. A single missing letter error is a likely form of typo when typing -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 20:31, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Weak delete for the simple fact this redirect has no incoming links that are worth retaining. Steel1943 (talk) 21:24, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

Another redirect created from a red link (which I fixed). The only difference is the capitalization, but I don't think subpages for requested articles are gonna get much usage. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 19:54, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Eligible for {{Db-subpage}} since Wikipedia:Requested Articles/Business and economics doesn't exist. Thus, I'm tagging this redirect. Steel1943 (talk) 21:26, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

This misspelling already appears to be implausible, but it's is in project space so it's even less likely to get used. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 19:40, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment this redirect created in 2022 has the page creation edit summary misspelling (fixed red link on Teahouse) ... -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 20:33, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Weak delete since ... yeah, it's wrong and quite implausible, and the redirect creator should have fixed the incoming link rather than creating this redirect, but ... what else could this shortcut refer to? Steel1943 (talk) 21:29, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment if this is kept it should be retargetted to Wikipedia:Reverting to match WP:REVERT. Thryduulf (talk) 01:00, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Appears to be another linking error. Looking at the page links, it appears to be a fairly common error where someone doesn't type "|" between RS and reliable sources. TeapotsOfDoom (talk) 19:39, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, same as the others like this -- linking errors should be fixed when spotted, not made into redirects. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 15:08, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

chocotone (one t) is a brazilian recipe featuring chocolate. no idea what a brazil is, but i hear it's relatively popular there. still unmentioned, though cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 18:32, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Weak keep - from what I can tell (though my search results could be skewed by geography) this is a popular chocolate form of panettone, and that form is noted in that article's lede although not by name. The Brazilian chocotone appears to be the same thing but in Portuguese, which doesn't have double consonants. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:46, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- between then and now, i may or may not have fallen into a downward spiral of inconsistent spellings and butcherings of italian names that start with t. for legal reasons, the correct spelling is both of them, at the same time
- banter aside, does this mean you found some evidence (reliable or otherwise) of the term being used outside of brazil? not even tricking google into thinking i'm the most american guy to ever exist seems to have yielded me anything besides brazilian results cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 20:16, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- The sources I was looking at were all Toronto publications, which is to say no, I did not exactly find evidence for its use outside of Brazil or its diaspora. But I think that's valid enough for a redirect. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:43, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Keep it appears in English used as being chocolate panettone [3][4][5] --- I suggest that Chocolate panettone redirect be created and that chocottone and Chocotone both have an
{{R from avoided double redirect|chocolate panettone}}
be attached to these two -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 20:39, 5 November 2024 (UTC)- that works for me. not for an actual mention at the article, since those are user-generated, but it's proof that the term is used cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 20:47, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

swedish for olive oil. target seems to have no particular affinity with sweden cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 18:19, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete doesn't appear to contain any useful history. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:33, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Weak delete - Olivolja is a Sicilian maker of olive and other oils, but I think not prominent enough for a {{R from brand name}} with no mention in the article. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:50, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - even though I am Swedish, I see no purpose. Mr.choppers | ✎ 20:47, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

- John Reilly (actor) → John Reilly (actor, born 1934) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
See recently closed RM. No primary topic; redirect to dab. 162 etc. (talk) 17:28, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. That RM did not reach a consensus that there was no primary topic, or about anything else. After discussion, the close was for the status quo. This redirect results from an undiscussed move in 2021 but has been stable since then. It gets few hits[6] but those that use it most likely want the current target or, if not, the single link from the hatnote. Redirecting to the dab page would make readers wade through 16 possible John Reillys before getting to the two actors near the bottom of the page, one of whom, John C. Reilly, is virtually never known as simply John Reilly. Station1 (talk) 18:01, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- If John Reilly (actor) and John Reilly (actor, born 1934) are the same article, then the title of the article should be John Reilly (actor), to avoid unnecessary disambiguation. But we just had an RM, and there was no consensus to move to that title. 162 etc. (talk) 22:30, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- The RM proposal was to move the article to John Reilly (soap opera actor), not back to John Reilly (actor). You brought up the alternative at that RM and I agree(d) with you that would be the better title, but as you point out, there was no consensus. Neither was there a consensus to point that title to a dab page. A new RM focused on reversing the undiscussed 2021 move might be appropriate, but retargeting the redirect in the meantime would not be helpful to readers. Station1 (talk) 16:03, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- If John Reilly (actor) and John Reilly (actor, born 1934) are the same article, then the title of the article should be John Reilly (actor), to avoid unnecessary disambiguation. But we just had an RM, and there was no consensus to move to that title. 162 etc. (talk) 22:30, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget John C. Reilly has 43,514 views compardd with only 2,556[[7]] for the 1934 one and people expect "Firstname Lastname" as titles of articles and even if some people include the "C" its unlikely almost everyone does. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:36, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Sources indicate the opposite. Almost everyone does include the "C". Station1 (talk) 16:03, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- People still expect "Firstname Lastname" even if some people use the "C". Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:41, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- Sources indicate the opposite. Almost everyone does include the "C". Station1 (talk) 16:03, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to the disambiguation per Crouch, Swale and I've never been a fan of partial disambiguation at the best of times as it always feels too much like special pleading. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:02, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
- Retarget to the disambiguation page. Fails WP:AT being not WP:PRECISE enough to identify the topic. A primary topic does not carry disambiguation, so if this John Reilly were the primary topic, the page would be called John Reilly, which it isn't. -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 07:01, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

"granatwerfer" (from granate and werfer) is a plausible, if apparently archaic name for mortar launchers (though i'd associate it more with grenade launchers). "granatawerfer" is not a word, because granata is italian for grenade. opinions on its plausibility as a misspelling or something else i might have missed? cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 17:16, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- should mention that i would create granatwerfer as a redirect to grenade launcher, but there are articles for three separate granatwerfer, which astute eyes may realize are all mortars, so i'll do it after this discussion closes to see where it should target. then again, judging by the articles' current states, grenade launchers and mortars might not have any particular affinity for germany in the first place. how complicated~ cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 17:24, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Agreed. Granatwerfer is reasonable as either a redirect to mortar, or a disambig. Grantawerfer is a typo or else a literary weapon used across the dining tables of Islington and Trumpington.Andy Dingley (talk) 17:40, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

I don't see any reliable coverage of that single, or of anything that Lavender has done since. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:36, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Delete I don't see any relevance in the redirect, as Ray Lavender was not a notable figure while contracted as an artist of KonLive Distribution. He released 4 singles, none of which of was any relevance even with a T-Pain feature. His time was so brief at the label that most people are unaware that he was on the label, and was one of the main factors for my omission of his name in the former artists section.

However, the target appears as if it may be ambiguous, and the redirect has history. Unsure what to do here. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:49, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

- On the other hand, reopening a discussion with the statement that

is counterproductive because it does nothing more than endorse the actions of someone who is not welcome to edit. What do you want to happen with these redirects? Your renomination doesn't really answer that... -- Tavix (talk) 23:00, 21 November 2024 (UTC)- I strongly want the ones without "river" to suffer the same fate as those with "river" rather than slipping through the cracks on a technicality, which is why I cared enough to reopen and renominate. Unless somebody else suggests something better, I weakly think that fate should be deletion as not discussed anywhere with sufficient substance to warrant a redirect. * Pppery * it has begun... 05:11, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

- The pre-redirect history says it is a tributary of the target, however, this is not mentioned in the 17 tributaries at Crasna (Tisza)#Tributaries. Săcuieu (river) says Henț is an alternate name in its lower course, so Retarget there for now as {{R from alternate name}}. I did not understand the nomination statement

This appears to be a redirect from Wikipedia space to a former administrator's userspace. I'm generally okay with lowbrow hijinks in userspace, but IMHO this language is inappropriate as a page title in Wikipediaspace (which does not exist to please admins past or present). Sorry if I'm whizzing in someone's private pool, but this is an inappropriate word for Wikipedia to use for any person, not to mention lack of any reason to link WP space to userspace in such a way. I'd be happy to be incorrect in this case, but I hope I'm acting in the interest of the pedia. BusterD (talk) 12:31, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

Delete the existence of the redirect suggests that picric acid, or something called picric acid, is a homeopathic preparation, and no evidence for that is adduced at the target page. Trovatore (talk) 02:12, 26 October 2024 (UTC) (Further comment: This page was originally an article, but that was back in 2008 — I don't think we need to take it to AfD now, do we?) --Trovatore (talk) 02:14, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
Retarget it and all other homeopathy-related redirects to placeboKeep, readd reference, find and add new source. It seems this very incomplete-looking list used to be a lot longer in the past; around 2019, it went from around 14k bytes to around 3k bytes, with two edits in particular excising the most amount of data, with the reason given being unreliable sources and/or sources that got removed from the Internet. From these older pieces we do find a very helpful search term-- that the name of a homeopathic preparation based on picric acid would be "Picricum acidum", which can be found in other sources-- and can also be found for sale. 𝔏𝔲𝔫𝔞𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔫🌙🌙🌙 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔐𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔬𝔫𝔦𝔢𝔰𝔱 (talk) 02:29, 26 October 2024 (UTC)- That's actually a pretty good point.... --Trovatore (talk) 21:17, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. If there is reliable and notable info on picric acid as a homeopathic remedy (an explosive less stable than the related TNT, I have to add), then it can be added to Picric acid#Uses and this redirect can be retargeted there or recreated to target that. Also, while searching through sources I found this "herbal" cigarette which supposedly includes picric acid at a concentration of 13% by weight. You smoke this... you get a lighter flick it on and light the explosive on fire. Is this even real? People are wild. ― Synpath 15:18, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- ... but this is a better point, I think. A brief mention here, far down in the article, is less intrusive than the silly-looking hatnote at the top of picric acid, which is what drew my attention to this redirect in the first place. That doesn't exclude covering it at list of homeopathic preparations with a good source. --Trovatore (talk) 21:17, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

There is a genre of game out there called "rage game" in which their main objective is to make the players rage. Notable examples include Getting Over It and A Difficult Game About Climbing. Not sure if the genre is really notable or not, but there are at least two examples I can think off of the top of my head (and those were just limited to the notable ones!). Maybe add a hatnote for the video game called "Rage", which is the current redirect. Someone-123-321 (I contribute) 08:27, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
