June 12
This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on June 12, 2013
Plaintiff in error
- 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 soft redirect to Wiktionary. There were no objections to the nominators proposal that this should not be a hard redirect to a Wikipedia article, and no comments on whether it should be a redlink or a soft redirect. As the page gets lots of hits, I'm boldly choosing the latter option. If anyone objects to this drop me a note on my talk page and I'll happily relist the discussion. Thryduulf (talk) 09:32, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
- Plaintiff in error → Appeal (links to redirect • history • stats) [ Closure: keep/delete ]
Delete per WP:REDLINK. The targeted section doesn't exist anymore, and the phrase isn't mentioned in that article or at Plaintiff. The phrase was transwiki'd to Wiktionary a long time ago, so a soft redirect may be appropriate instead. BDD (talk) 19:21, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Test page Epicgenius(talk to me • see my contributions) 13:17, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
- Weak keep. This one gets traffic. 168.12.253.66 (talk) 18:46, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
- I created both this redirect and "New Yourk, New Yourk." They are not test pages, and I don't appreciate such an insult to my work: you practically just called me a vandal. I think both misspellings are common and understandable enough; note that a Google search for "new yourk" turns up 489,000 hits. szyslak (t) 22:18, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
- Comment is this supposed to be Brooklyn English? -- 65.94.79.6 (talk) 05:37, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- Keep, typical R From Misspelling. Cavarrone 10:35, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
- If this is a typical "mispelling", perhaps we should also create redirects for "New Pork", "Noo Pork", "Noo Dork", Poo Cork" and any variation of the above. Are they not teaching Inglysh in skools aneemoor? --AussieLegend (✉) 15:51, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
- Your argument is silly. "New Yourk" is an understandable misspelling, "Noo Pork" or "Poo Cork" obviously not. Cavarrone 21:12, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
- New York is so well known worldwide that such a misspelling is only understandable if the reader is functionally illiterate. The point of my examples, which are no more silly than "yourk", is that we can create redirects for every possible misspelling but we limit them to plausible cases. That a few people may have typed such misspellings doesn't make them any more plausible than other examples such as Melbouring (Melbourne), Sydelly (courtesy of Juan Antonio Samaranch's 2000 Summer Olympics announcement) or Unyted Staytes. --AussieLegend (✉) 05:41, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- As mentioned above, half a million Google hits make this specific case plausible and not so rare. And AGF, it could easily be a typo error, not depending from being "functionally illiterate" (in fact, R from misspelling refers to " misspelling or typographical error"). Your examples have not the same strength, as Sydelly and Melbouring have a few hundreds of Google hits and for the main part (if not all) they don't refer to the related places. Cavarrone 05:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Per WP:GOOGLEHITS, "a large number of hits on a search engine is no guarantee that the subject is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia". A quick look reveals that many of those hits have nothing to do New York City itself. There are links to a dog kennel, a hotel in Las Vegas and so on. In any case, the number of google hits really has nothing to do with a redirect. They might have some relevance if the redirect was an article, but it isn't. --AussieLegend (✉) 07:14, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- 1) WP:GOOGLEHITS refers to notability and has nothing to do with a redirect from misspelling, 2) the main part of the Google hits refers to New York, if you says otherwise you are in bad faith, 3) A New York dog kennel called "New Yourk Dog" is clearly a wordplay based on New York. Cavarrone 08:18, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, you can't have it both ways. You can't justify retention of a redirect based on the number of ghits without accepting what WP:GOOGLEHITS says. Redirects are still articles - they're in article space (they're simply redirected articles), so GOOGLEHITS still applies. They New York dog kennel is not New York, so the fact that somebody has misspelled the city's name in order to create a business name is not justification to keep this redirect, any more than the Las Vegas hotel. --AussieLegend (✉) 14:34, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Redirects are not articles, not everything in article space is an article (see Wikipedia:Article namespace). Notability does not apply to redirects, and certainly not to now "notable" a misspelling is for the purposes of redirects from misspelling. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 15:30, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- To get back on track, my point was (and still is) that the number of google hits is irrelevant to whether or not this redirect should be kept. Clearly the people looking for dog kennels or Las Vegas hotels aren't looking for New York city based on traffic. --AussieLegend (✉) 18:33, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- To get back on track, the main part of the half a million google hits is patently related to New York City (even excluding nine-tenths of unrelated results, we would have the impressive number of 50,000 hits!) and Wikipedia stats document that "New Yourk City" is used as a search-term about 300 times a month [1], [2], [3]. There are no other significant results for the search-term ([4]). Your main argument is an outright rejection of the concept of redirect from misspelling, but obviously this is not the place for this discussion. Cavarrone 19:09, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

This was an unused, redundant KML file, that was part of failed experiment. (See Template talk:Infobox Australian road). As I was the only editor of this and a related group of other KML files, I was tagging them with {{db-author}} as none of the files were needed. Unfortunately, another editor has rushed in and redirected the remaining files so {{db-author}} is no longer appropriate AussieLegend (✉) 07:55, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Although the signs of Fucking, Austria have been notably stolen to the point that they were welded and cemented into the ground (as noted in the article this redirect leads to), this particular redirect seems like a joke much more than a legitimate redirect and should be deleted.

- Redirect to File:Fucking, Austria, street sign cropped.jpg. If people are searching for "Fucking stolen sign", they're clearly searching for the image, not the article. --AussieLegend (✉) 00:58, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
- Arguably, because the redirect isn't in all caps ("FUCKING STOLEN STREET SIGN"), it cannot qualify as a shortcut. Thus WP:CSD#R2 would then apply. The image is at the top of the article anyway. PleaseStand (talk) 08:19, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
