- 50 Ways → 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
It could refer to other topics such as 50 Ways to Say Goodbye, 50 Ways of Saying Fabulous, and 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover (film). Frost 22:02, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete as an ambiguous WP:PTM. Since it's a PTM, disambiguation wouldn't be appropriate. - Eureka Lott 22:22, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Disambiguate: 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover is probably what most readers are looking for, but the other uses of "50 Ways" are plausible. Deletion would not help users at all. Travellers & Tinkers (talk) 20:15, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: Nothing currently links here. It's had 27 page views, but it's unclear if those are all from RfD since it was nominated the same day it was created. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 19:59, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

to my knowledge, "powder" could refer to at least one other thing. seems to have originally been created as homework, and was blar'd with an edit summary that... didn't make much sense, if i'm being honest consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 20:43, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete per nom; horrendously ambiguous. The edit summary probably refers to the fact that the article gunpowder is a more complete and detailed article. Ca talk to me! 22:51, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

- Star Wars Episode VII: A New Dawn → Star Wars: The Force Awakens (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
This redirect was created in 2013, when eager Star Wars fans believed that the copyright for the then-forthcoming Star Wars Rebels novel "A New Dawn" could have been Episode VII's eventual name. Aside from it being an inaccurate fan theory, it was never a common name or used in any official capacity. As this concerns what is now an old movie, I recommend this redirect be deleted. BOTTO (T•C) 20:41, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Traffic has been minimal: the redirect has had a mere 12 pageviews since January 2022. Note that Star Wars: A New Dawn is already a redirect to Star Wars Rebels#Novels. - Eureka Lott 21:21, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete - This was a WP:CRYSTAL ball issue that turned out to be incorrect. It is definitely an implausible search now. Fieari (talk) 23:36, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

not mentioned in the target. results seem torn between it being a related term in some language (possibly to any member of the potoroidae family), a tpyo, or in the absolute worst case scenario, a pun (though on what, i can't tell) consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 20:21, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
Comment- It's a legitimate taxonomic tribe per [2]. However, it includes more than just the genus Potorous (which redirects to Potoroo.Delete or keep doesn't matter... I'll have time later today to write a stub to replace it.- UtherSRG (talk) 21:58, 8 January 2025 (UTC)- Upgrading my comment to keep - UtherSRG (talk) 23:46, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- I created this redirect; this tribe name is from the Mammal Diversity Database and seems to be a near-synonym for the genus Potorous. Also, why go through this procedure instead of my talk page to verify this? --Ellicrum (talk) 22:19, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- it's probably worth a mention, then, though i am admittedly a little iffy on putting it there if it only seems to be a near-synonym. gonna have to do some looking in a while consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 12:04, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- In older classification schemes, it was definitely not synonymous. Now, however, all of the other genera have been moved out to other tribes or out of tribes altogether. - UtherSRG (talk) 23:39, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- it's probably worth a mention, then, though i am admittedly a little iffy on putting it there if it only seems to be a near-synonym. gonna have to do some looking in a while consarn (speak evil) (see evil) 12:04, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

Delete as a textbook case of a redirect that does not make any sense whatsoever. Anonymous 20:20, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- I created this three years ago. I have no idea why now! I presume I did have a reason. Happy for it to be removed. Bondegezou (talk) 20:33, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Bondegezou based on the history, it was a redirect to a DAB page with the same name and slightly different capitalization. The DAB page was deleted and this orphaned redirect ended up being retargeted to a vaguely relevant destination. So although it no longer makes sense, it did have a function when you created it. Anonymous 21:21, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Revert bad bot edit and speedy delete as G8, a redirect to the deleted page Ukrainian voice. The double-redirect bots have been broken in this respect for decades; it's just that no one's bothered to fix them. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:02, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was disambiguate. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 07:31, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
Delete (though I'm unsure if that's the correct course of action). It first redirected to Future-Drama since Turb is a fictional drug very briefly mentioned once in that episode of The Simpsons. Subsequently redirected to Hot dog in what I am assuming is an act of vandalism. Its past Simpsons-related usage is barely significant. It's a made-up term used once in a throw-away line and never mentioned again. "turb" has some other minor usages (a person called (Toomas Turb, acronym for trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor, shortened form of turbulence) so I'm not entirely sure what to do with this redirect (delete? disambig? put it back to redirect to Future-Drama as it originally did? re-target?) TheZoodles (talk) 18:38, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Disambiguate. It is also used sometimes in mathematics as an abbreviation for turbulence. There is reason enough to disambiguate. BD2412 T 23:07, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Seems unlikely someone would use an ancient greek derived name for a group of people, especially when said group did not have an independent identity at that time. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 16:00, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- Pentapotamia redirects to Punjab. I added those redirects by analogy. I'm also not fully sure if that term is actually "Ancient Greek", rather than a modern calque. Pescavelho (talk) 16:21, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- Sources in Punjab do mention that the ancient Greeks called it that. Pentapotamia as a redirect is fine, as it refers to the region. Punjabi as an actual independent identity evolved more than a millennia after that. So these redirects do not make sense. DoctorWhoFan91 (talk) 16:28, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

- Peanutgate → Jimmy Carter (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Not mentioned in target article, making the connection between the target and the redirect unclear. In addition, third party search engines seem to associate this phrase with Peanut the squirrel for some reason, but the redirect isn't mentioned in that article either. Steel1943 (talk) 20:40, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. I'd assume it refers to the handling of Jimmy Carter's peanut farm while it was placed in a blind trust, but couldn't tell you for sure. – Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 21:36, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- Refine to § Allegations and investigations, with a hatnote to Peanut the squirrel . The terms seems to be used by the media to refer to the investigations on Jimmy Carter's peanut farm. [3][4]
- However, it is also used to describe the Peanut the squirrel incident. [5][6] Ca talk to me! 07:17, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Jay 💬 17:32, 8 January 2025 (UTC)- Delete. If this is suppose to refer to the handling of Jimmy Carter's peanut farm during his presidency, the redirect needs to redirect to the corresponding section in the article dealing with the subject, and one would think actually mention the term peanutgate if ever referred to as.

Typo in the disambiguator. Redirect targets the correct spelling. At a related RfD closed today, Brian Wood (solider) and Michael Gibson (British Army solider) were deleted. The close said that there was consensus to delete cases where the misspelling is in the disambiguator. Jay 💬 09:50, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

- Tik tok → TikTok (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
- Tik Tok → TikTok (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Re-target to Tik Tok (song), the rationale is simply that, in a paper encyclopedia, If you search for Tik Tok in index it goes to Tik Tok, otherwise I would search for TikTok at the alphabetic order 'tikt'. I know the search isn't properly an index, but since there's not a paractical index, it should work as too. gtp (talk) 07:55, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Probably there is a previous RFD entry which I didn't find out at a first attempt gtp (talk) 07:58, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: Unless there's a common-noun use of the term, the target of tik tok should follow the capitalised version Tik Tok, which has not been nominated. --Paul_012 (talk) 08:51, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing it out. Could I add it by editing this entry? (add to the bottom). gtp (talk) 08:56, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, but please add it as the second line, above the textual rationale. Use
{{subst:Rfd2|multi=yes|redirect=RedirectName2|target=TargetArticle2}}
, per the instructions under "To list multiple related redirects for discussion" on the main WP:RfD page. The RfD banner to be placed on the page itself can be copied from the first one. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:05, 8 January 2025 (UTC) - Wait, actually, this would be the wrong venue for such a discussion. Your proposal to redirect Tik Tok to Tik Tok (song) would result in unnecessary disambiguation, so what you want to do is start a WP:Requested move discussion to rename Tik Tok (song) to Tik Tok. If it passes (which I somewhat doubt), the lower-case tik tok can then be uncontroversially updated. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:16, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

- Delete due to lack of mention combined with the unlikelihood that the mere existence of the redirect itself provides the information the searcher would be looking for, nor would it be a navigational aid to the target (which would be the only two reasons to keep a redirect without a mention to my understanding).

"spectral" not mentioned anywhere in target. The exact phrase "spectral genetic analysis" seems rarely used; all hits but one are for something from the fictional show SuperFriends. Rusalkii (talk) 05:05, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete. Recently created with no explanation in the edit summary. No hits that produce a coherent connection to genetic analysis on DDG or Google when tacking on "-Superfriends". Cruft-y easter egg? It's possible this is meant to refer to the variety techniques that leverage fluorescence or absorbance to sequence DNA, but that is a stretch. ― Synpath 14:52, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Not mentioned in target; this wording not used anywhere on the internet I can find. More a search term than a title. Rusalkii (talk) 05:02, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:RETURNTORED. None of the lists linked in the disamb page Kanye West discography contain any section dedicated to unrealized projects and many of his unreleased songs are not mentioned in any place in Wikipedia. An list like the lists in Category:Lists of unrealized projects by artist could be created. Ca talk to me! 12:43, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

- I've created a rough draft at Draft:Kanye West's unrealized projects. मल्ल (talk) 15:41, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
Deleteper nom. "Kanye West's unrealized projects" almost certainly constitute an encyclopedic topic, and once the draft is mainspace-ready I think a descriptive title like that will be appropriate for them. However, while the draft is still under construction, not much is gained by having the title redirect to the main Kanye West article. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 16:27, 10 January 2025 (UTC)- Changing to keep as the new mainspace article is a plausible destination. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 20:54, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep as the article has finally been finished and is now published as an article. I've worked on it in my sandbox. RTSthestardust (talk) 18:42, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

- I made that redirect in case if someone wants to look up Biden years. As the Biden's presidency was between Trump's two terms. I thought the redirects made sense to an extent. Rager7 (talk) 00:55, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

- I understand, although Trump is the second president to have two non-consecutive terms. The Trump era is far memorable than Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison which is another reason for the redirects.
- If you still want to delete both redirects than I'm fine with that decision, but those are my reasons for creating said redirects. Rager7 (talk) 01:07, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete, unless someone can show evidence of sources using these phrases. The bar is low for what makes an appropriate redirect, but terminology that is purely the invention of Wikipedia editors doesn't usually cut it. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 03:24, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
