Star fox wii
- 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 Star Fox Zero#Development. --BDD (talk) 17:07, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
There was apparently not a Star Fox game released for the Wii, making this redirect somewhat misleading. Steel1943 (talk) 23:19, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep http://starfox.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Fox_(Wii) and other sources discuss it so it's a viable search term even though it never saw the light of day. 208.81.212.224 (talk) 23:32, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- That actually seems like rationale to delete the redirect per WP:REDLINK, unless it is mentioned and identified in an article, then the redirect could be retargeted there so that readers can find the information they are looking for rather than no information about the subject. Steel1943 (talk) 23:34, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Why don't you know redirected, with a mention, to the correct source, ref included. 208.81.212.224 (talk) 02:11, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to Star Fox Zero#Development, where I've added a sentence about how assets for the never-released Star Fox Wii game were the basis of the new Wii U game. (see: [1]). ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:57, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to Star Fox Zero At this point, the searcher is looking for any kind of Star Fox Wii related game, so the Wii U version would suffice. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:35, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget per Patar knight. This could've/should've been deleted as WP:CRYSTAL back in the day, but now that Star Fox Zero has information about the failed Wii game, there's a good landing point for this redirect now. -- Tavix (talk) 22:32, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Originally an article in Persian about the Coriolis force uploaded by a one-edit account more than six years ago, this foreign-language redirect serves no purpose and should be deleted. — Gorthian (talk) 22:17, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:RFOREIGN. Persian Wikipedia already has an article on this. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:01, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per AngusWOOF. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 02:28, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per AngusWOOF. Isn't even the right term for the target, it just says "Coriolis" not "Coriolis force", and anyway nothing at Coriolis has any connection to the Persian language. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 04:56, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per AngusWOOF. No affinity or history with the Persian people or language --Lenticel (talk) 00:39, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was move Dry wash (disambiguation) over redirect. -- Tavix (talk) 22:27, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
Re-targeting to Dry wash (disambiguation). The target article doesn't use the phrase "dry wash", and the disambiguation page offers the term "waterless car wash", which itself redirects to car wash. Alternately, re-target to arroyo (creek) which does use the term "dry wash" and add an Other Uses there. Morfusmax (talk) 22:09, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Comment: Morfusmax, I assume you meant to nominate Dry wash instead of Dry Wash, and have adjusted the nomination accordingly, but please correct me if I'm wrong here. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 22:14, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- You were right. Thanks for the assist. Morfusmax (talk) 22:22, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- For the record, I support retargetting this to Dry wash (disambiguation). -- Notecardforfree (talk) 22:25, 20 June 2016 (UTC) Addendum: I also like Lenticel's idea of moving Dry wash (disambiguation) to Dry wash. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 02:27, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- You were right. Thanks for the assist. Morfusmax (talk) 22:22, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Retarget to Dry wash (disambiguation). I'm also okay with moving the dab to this page instead --Lenticel (talk) 00:54, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Move dry wash (disambiguation) to the base title. There does not appear to be a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC by usage; in Google News and Books searches I see both the "waterless car wash" and "dry waterway" meanings fairly frequently. Per WP:MALPLACED, don't retarget a base title to the same title with a parenthetical disambiguator. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 05:00, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- This works for me. Morfusmax (talk) 14:06, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

- Wavedashing → Bunny hopping#Wave (links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
The redirect is not mentioned in the target article. A redirect at this title was nominated at RfD in the past and deleted, but before, it targeted a different subject. Steel1943 (talk) 20:54, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Snow Keep as a likely search term. It doesn't seem to matter if there's anything about a subject in an article if someone, sometime, somewhere might look for a term, even if the article doesn't contain one iota of information about the subject as can be seen by the closing of the redirects to songs below. The precedent has been set. Live with it. 208.81.212.224 (talk) 21:35, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Note to closer and/or administrator: Per this edit by the same IP towards me on SSTflyer's talk page, this comment seems more like a WP:GOODFAITH-lacking comment that does not assist with forming consensus for this specific redirect. Steel1943 (talk) 22:52, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry that you are not following WP:AGF. It was made in good faith. It is a likely search term. Cheers. 208.81.212.224 (talk) 23:51, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- I'll have to respectfully disagree with your first part of your statement, given the tone of the comment on SSTflyer's talk page, as well as the tone in the comment above (specifically the sentence
Live with it.
). Either way, "likely" search terms are only helpful if the term is either identified and defined at the target page, or if the search term is a likely alternative name or spelling variation for the alternative name (and the alternative name is mentioned on the target page.) This redirect currently meets neither of these criteria. In fact, the section which the redirect targets, Bunny hopping#Wave, currently doesn't exist. Steel1943 (talk) 00:17, 21 June 2016 (UTC) - That, and "wavedashing" and "bunny hopping" (as defined in the article) are not the same thing. "bunny hopping" involves jumping; "wavedashing" involves somersaults or "somersault-like" movements. Steel1943 (talk) 00:26, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Delete per WP:REDLINK to encourage article creation. Wavedashing is the most famous move in Super Smash Bros., a major e-sport, so article creation with proper sources should be encouraged, instead of hindered by a useless redirect. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:59, 21 June 2016 (UTC)- Keep now that the information has been restored to the article. Moving out if it becomes too large is not for RfD to decide. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 14:47, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
I created this redirect 3 April 2015 at the same day I put in the anchor it pointed to: special:diff/654728147
The anchor was removed at some point during the last 14 months. Not sure exactly when or by whom. I would like to keep the redirect up and restore the information.
Patar knight the redirect was and.can be useful again. It is more useful to build a section on a bigger concept page and later split it off. Expecting a perfect article out of scratch on such an obscure topic is not realistic. I will take it was a redirect with possibilities. I will restore the lost section and feel.free to nominate it via the split section temate if you think it grows large enough to merit it's own page. Ranze (talk) 08:20, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
Delete or Redirect to Glossary of video game terms and create entry.It depends on whether it's slang or common jargon. [2] AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:44, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

This is a name of a song used in multiple Super Smash Bros. series games. However, the subject of the redirect is not mentioned in the target article or the aforementioned series article. If there is a retargeting option, it would probably be Super Smash Bros.#Music, but the subject of the redirect is not mentioned there either. Without a specific mention, the title of this redirect makes it a vague search term. Steel1943 (talk) 20:50, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

- Retarget to Ridley_(Metroid)#In_other_media, where I've added a sentence about Ridley's size-based exclusion from the series as a fighter. This specific phrase was used as shorthand for the debate (see: Know Your Meme page), so is a plausible search term. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:03, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete meme isn't notable in news coverage or books. Only appears on know your meme. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:20, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- It's a meme that refers to an common issue among fants that IGN saw fit to conduct an interview the creative director of the series with. This is definitely a plausible redirect and it should go to Ridley_(Metroid)#In_other_media, where this information is discussed and sourced. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:33, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

These terms seem to not refer to any specific game in the Super Smash Bros. series. The only game in the series that is compatible with HD is Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, but the redirects were never an official name for the subject. Steel1943 (talk) 20:15, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

- Delete and salt no such title. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:21, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. Could plausibly be used to refer to HD trailers and media associated with the game series [3]. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 03:36, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
- Heh, then any video game could be HD by that definition. Wait until there's something that has the title and HD before associating this, as with Final Fantasy Type-0 HD AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:17, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
- It could be. I wouldn't object to keeping them as long as they're not outright mistargeted (e.g. "GAME HD" exists as an article but a variant of it points to "GAME (series)"). it seems that if readers are looking for an HD version, by going to the series page, they can see that no such game exists, or click through to individual game articles and look at development/sequel/remake sections. Since what readers are looking for is clear, we should direct them to the place with that information. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 04:39, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

This seems like an implausible search term, and I'm also afraid it could be misleading as well. The article discusses paternity in biology, but I'm not so sure about the "medicine" part; the word is only mentioned once in the article, and for an unrelated reason. -- Tavix (talk) 19:00, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Apparently, this acronym is supposed to stand for "Super Smash Bros: War", but what that subject is itself is unclear and unreferenced. Most searches on search engines for "Super Smash Bros: War" return results for a fan-made game that is not the redirect's target (WP:NOTWIKIA), and most searches for "SSBW" return Twitter hashtag results hinting that this acronym has some sort of similar meaning to BBW, specifically Big Beautiful Woman. Also, the following redirects do not exist: Super Smash Bros: War, Super Smash Bros War, SSB:W, etc. Steel1943 (talk) 18:05, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Since this redirect has existed since 2004, the current situation may be correct, but I'm not completely sure. I recently discovered the disambiguation page Sant'Angelo, and it seems that several of the subjects listed on this disambiguation page could be referred to as "San Angelo" as an English transliteration. With that being said, the current situation makes me wonder if it is actually not a WP:WORLDWIDE view and needs to be "fixed" to remove any possible systemic bias. So, is the current situation correct (which means that the target page may need to be moved over the redirect as a primary topic and essentially the only topic spelled like this), should the redirect be retargeted to Sant'Angelo or is there another option that may be more plausible? Steel1943 (talk) 16:44, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Not all drug houses are crack houses
— is there some other use of the term "drug house" I'm missing (aside from the unintentionally hilarious WP:PTM Drug Houses of Australia)? As far as I can see, "drug house" isn't a supertopic of "crack house" but simply an alternative, less common name; crack house itself notes that the term isn't literally limited to crack ("illegal drugs, including crack cocaine"). 210.6.254.106 (talk) 16:11, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- I don't think it's accurate to use the term "crack house" as a metonymous definition for any house at which any drug is bought, sold, consumed, or produced. The term "crack house" has a rather complex history in the United States, and it is often used pejoratively (often with racist connotations). Another option would be to move the current article at crack house to drug house (over the redirect) and make the article about drug houses in general. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 16:34, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- It really depends on what the most notable term is. If that's crack house then use that and alias the others to this one, listing and bolding them in the lead. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:04, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- The term "crack house" is ubiquitous, but it is not the preferred term when referring to locations that involve drugs other than crack. Indeed, "drug house" is the preferred term for the BBC, New York Times, U.S. Supreme Court, state supreme courts, and state narcotics agencies. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 20:23, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- Move target to drug house per NCFF's sources and because "crack house" would be a sub-set of "drug house." I think the article should have a broad scope that would encompass all of these terms. -- Tavix (talk) 20:44, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- Support move renaming crack house to drug house and making it the primary topic, with crack house and meth house being the new redirects. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:35, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

not a likely search term. We do not create redirects for every song on an album. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:14, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- For instance, the album That's Why God Made the Radio's first song is Think About the Days. No redirect. The next two songs have articles while Spring Vacation , or more correctly spring vacation, is a redirect, but to spring break. Other Bach Boys' songs are redirects but only because editors created articles for them and they were not sufficiently notable. I have never seen this sort of behaviour before and would not like it to continue. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:39, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Redirects are cheap. What's the issue? VQuakr (talk) 08:37, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- On the face of it, there's no issue with keeping the redirects. But what happens if at some point in the future an artist releases another song titled "Everybody Dies Young" and it becomes a huge global hit, and becomes the unambiguous primary topic on Wikipedia? Do we then need to create a disambiguation for the redirect, when almost certainly everybody will be searching for the big hit by the same name? Richard3120 (talk) 09:29, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
Do we then need to create a disambiguation for the redirect
Nope, per WP:TWODABS you wouldn't need a disambiguation page in that case. You'd just overwrite the redirect with an article about the notable song, with a {{for}} hatnote to the non-notable song. 210.6.254.106 (talk) 11:09, 20 June 2016 (UTC)- Yet PC78 (talk · contribs) is making that exact argument at Talk:Where the Light Gets In (album)#Requested move 18 June 2016
- And redirects are costly. And so the issue is that we do not create articles for every song name. There is no policy to do so. There is no guideline to do so. Just because an editor has done so for a while doe not mean it should continue. Walter Görlitz (talk) 13:53, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

No harm in redirecting song titles to album articles. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:04, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Yes there is. First, it goes against standard deletion policy. Redirects are only left in an AfD or similar deletion process if the term is likely to be used for searching, and redirects are costly. Finally, you're the editor who created them so I can see why you think there's no harm in it. This is a change to call you out for being irresponsible. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:05, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Irresponsible? Oy... --Another Believer (Talk) 14:07, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Quite irresponsible! As I stated, if this had been an empty article stating
- "Everybody Dies Young" is a song off ...
- and that went to a speedy, no redirect would have been left.
- If that speedy was contested and it went to a PROD, no redirect would have been left.
- If that PROD was contested and it went to an AfD, no redirect would have been left.
- Why? Because it's not a likely search term. So why is it responsible to circumvent that and simply create redirects for unlikely search terms? If the song had charted, it might be a likely search term, but this is not a responsible action. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:12, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- You are very worked up about these redirects, which are harmless and helpful to the project. I'm going to move on to other tasks now, so we'll see how this plays out.

Another Believer, I'm not sure it is helpful to the project: they seem to be creating a solution for a demand that doesn't exist. It's very unlikely anybody is looking for a non-notable album track on Wikipedia, and they are even less likely to try several possible spellings or disambiguators to find it, especially if the first one they try redirects to the album they are looking for. You're also implying that the song passes WP:NSONGS because it's worthy of keeping as a redirect. Why not simply delete the article? Richard3120 (talk) 14:56, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. Other artists have produced songs by the same name. See, e.g., this song by an artist named "Sakro". -- Notecardforfree (talk) 03:38, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete The only notable song on this album is "American Country Love Song". The album hasn't even been released (July 29, 2016). If others get released as singles and garner significant airplay and reviews then you can add back. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:55, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete. I note the creator also created a redirect for Everybody Dies Young (Jake Owen song), so we have two redirects for the same song. At this stage it is no longer an editor considering what redirects are necessary (i.e. a WP function), but somebody title grabbing for an artist (a marketing function). As song titles are used over and over again, as noted by Notecardforfree this means redirects are not as cheap as we think, nor does primarytopic or concise work as well and clearly as some would have us beleive- after all this redirect might actually be PT, but we have no information whatsoever other than a track listing. Again hard for some to comprehend, but we do song articles, not articles about recordings of songs. Walter Görlitz makes an argument that redirects should only be created via AfD/Prod process, but there are problems with that because it is patently clear we should have a redirect at William Clinton.
- It becomes clear that mere existence is not worthy of a redirect, otherwise we can create redirects for all our friends, neighbours, family, or every song in our record collection and that creates a problem that needs addressing.
- In the meantime all the redirects below should also be deleted, unless somebody can prove that one or two have some kind of separate notability yet still fails WP:NSONGS. --Richhoncho (talk) 08:47, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- That's not my argument. There are many valid reasons to create redirects or to turn articles into redirects that do not require a discussion. I don't believe that all songs on an album need to have redirects, only those that are likely to be search terms. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:18, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry, Walter Görlitz I interpreted your words above, "Yes there is. First, it goes against standard deletion policy. Redirects are only left in an AfD or similar deletion process if the term is likely to be used for searching..." as meaning don't create redirects.

We don't have redirects for bad mouth, speaking ill, etc. and I think this should remain a redlink as well.

(Per WP:DABNAME.) I created this page in response to Notecardforfree's findings. (Also, in the process, I found that Tammy Cochran released an album by the redirect's name, as well as a song by that name, both of which currently meet MOS:DABMENTION on the disambiguation page.)

- Keep. The song referenced is essentially the title song of the eponymous album, which currently seems to be the primary topic
since it is the only notable topic.(See next comment for information.) (Notability for the song has yet to be proven since the album has yet to be released.) Unless the situation changes in a way other than I just described, the current situation makes complete sense. Steel1943 (talk) 22:37, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Well, actually after reviewing this, I wonder if Lady in Gold should be moved to Lady in Gold (album) and redirect the ambiguous title to Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I or make it a disambiguation page. Either way, my opinion of "keep"-in the redirect (or retargeting it to Lady in Gold (album) if the article is moved) hasn't changed. Steel1943 (talk) 22:41, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Strong support for moving Lady in Gold to Lady in Gold (album) and redirect Lady in Gold to Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I. The portrait is, without question, the primary topic (per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC), both in terms of usage and long term significance. Lady in Gold (song) can then be retargetted to Lady in Gold (album). As far as I can tell, it is the only song by that name, though we will need to create a DAB page if we discover other songs with the same name. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 18:55, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- Lady in Gold should refer to the portrait / primary topic. Add hatnote to album. Retarget song to album. Redirect for (song) should be kept as it is the only promoted single from the album which will be released in August 5, 2016. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:27, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
- Comment. At this point, the target article has been moved to Lady in Gold (album) and Lady in Gold is now a redirect to Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I. For this reason, the nominated redirect has been updated to target Lady in Gold (album) (which has been reflected in the nomination.) Steel1943 (talk) 19:44, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep as it's the title track of the album, and so has the strongest case for a redirect to the album.

- Yes there is. First, it goes against standard deletion policy. Redirects are only left in an AfD or similar deletion process if the term is likely to be used for searching, and redirects are costly. Finally, you're the editor who created them so I can see why you think there's no harm in it. This is a change to call you out for being irresponsible. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:05, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

- Comment: Per some research, I found that the "You Gotta Try" song (which seems to be the correct spelling of the song) in The Great American Songbook: Live at Michael's Pub is a version of the song by Sammy Nestico titled "Ya Gotta Try".

Would it make sense to target to Übermensch? Oiyarbepsy (talk) 03:11, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete, Wiktionary it or Redirect to Superhuman as the terms are closely related. [7] Also not mentioned in the target article at all. The first two choices could also foster creation of an article proper that can explain how it is slightly different from the superhuman. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:21, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Superhuman. I'm not familiar with its usage in a philosophical context. Google attributes the term to writings about Kierkegaard and Nietzsche, both of whom likely refer to very different things with similar terms. BabyJonas (talk) 03:54, 24 June 2016 (UTC)

Song of God can refer to a whole lot of things. Is disambiguation a plausible alternative here? Oiyarbepsy (talk) 01:44, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- What else is known as "Song of God"? older ≠ wiser 17:54, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
- Comment - The name "Sune" apparently also means "Song of God". There may be some recorded tracks by this name, though I've not come across them. I'm not sure if a disambiguation page is needed, though, since the connection of the term to the Gita text is by far the primary usage around the world. At least, I think... some more international perspectives here are needed. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 12:03, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep and hatnote if required to other uses. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 17:24, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. My search shows plenty of use in English for this. I mainly see it as a subtitle (eg: "Bhagavad Gita: The Song of God"). [8]. I don't think a hatnote to Sune is necessary—we don't disambiguate translations unless they're used in English. -- Tavix (talk) 22:10, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
