The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 08:35, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Describes an event that never happened/is not planned to happen. Basically this article was created way too soon and nominated for deletion. The result of that discussion was redirect. But now clearly the event has not happened and never will so no purpose in still having a redirect. Rusf10 (talk) 23:48, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mezo Bombs

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 delete. -- Tavix (talk) 14:26, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Besides not being mentioned at the target, the redirect is also misspelled; the correct spelling for this subject is "Mezzo bomb", a enemy character in Super Mario RPG. This subject's mention on Wikipedia would be the equivalent of a WP:GAMEGUIDE violation due to being a unnotable variation in a RPG video game. Steel1943 (talk) 23:37, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 14:25, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target article. In addition, these redirects are probably misspellings for "Blargg", a enemy character in the Mario series that is not mentioned on Wikipedia. Steel1943 (talk) 23:34, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Snift

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 redirect to Wiktionary. (non-admin closure) feminist (talk) 08:35, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely misspelling of "Snifit". Readers searching for "snift" may arrive at this redirect's current tiarget as a WP:SURPRISE. Also, Wiktionary:snift exists. Steel1943 (talk) 23:31, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dorrie (Super Mario 64)

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 delete. In other news, Dorrie has been created (with no relation to the Super Mario 64 character). -- Tavix (talk) 14:21, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at target. Ironically, Dorrie doesn't exist. Steel1943 (talk) 21:00, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ukkikis

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 delete. -- Tavix (talk) 14:57, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target page. This redirect is probably meant to represent the plural form of "Ukiki"; however, that does not exist. The only mention of this subject is at List of fictional primates in video games, but I don't believe the redirect should be retargeted there since the redirect is plural, misspelled, and because no other redirects other than List of fictional apes in video games target that page. Steel1943 (talk) 19:50, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete - I don't have a strong opinion here. Apparently, these creatures have had a variety of names both officially and unofficially (see here), and have been in a bunch of games so far (though, never in a prominent role). The misspelled redirect doesn't seem particularly helpful to me, however. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 00:26, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mass relay

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 no consensus. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 22:23, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Overly vague to redirect anywhere. Should be left up to the search function. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 02:06, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep seeing the number of Google hits for "mass relay" that refer to this video game (that I have never heard of before today...#notagamer...) dating back quite a few years I think that it may well be a term that would be searched for in WP and that should point to Mass Effect. The search engine turns up Mass Effect quite low down in the list. Domdeparis (talk) 17:39, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. -- Tavix (talk) 14:54, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

None of these subjects and/or variations are mentioned at the target. In addition, "Princess Lakitu" isn't even a Nintendo invention: Apparently, it was created by a fan for DeviantArt. Steel1943 (talk) 13:41, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I am still positive it's delete. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 19:51, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

government shutdown can happen at many country as part of budget or any other process. I think this should be a disambiguation page, but not redirect to US topic. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 13:40, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retargeted to List of Billboard number-one country albums of 2018. -- Tavix (talk) 04:07, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:RED, was previously linked at 2018 in country music bit I have since removed it. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 04:47, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have now filled out List of Billboard number-one country albums of 2018 and pointed it there. I created this per the logic of those who created List of number-one country albums of 2016 (U.S.) and previous, as I believe it used to be the naming scheme of these pages.

The result of the discussion was delete. Killiondude (talk) 06:43, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target. The subject of the redirect is a variation of the subject in Super Mario RPG as a random minor enemy, so minor that its mention in Wikipedia probably fails WP:GAMEGUIDE. Steel1943 (talk) 04:16, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. Killiondude (talk) 06:43, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vague: searching using these terms did not lend a strong connection to the target. -- Tavix (talk) 02:42, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That would imply there are multiple entries at those respective disambiguation pages that could reasonably go by "H&N" or "N&H". That does not seem plausible to me, but I'm interested if you have different findings. -- Tavix (talk) 00:45, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete as unopposed. -- Tavix (talk) 03:36, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

An incorrect name, moved to Robert James Thomson (=Robert Thomson (journalist) = Robert Thomson (executive)). There is no valid redirect target from what I can see, and no use perpetuating incorrect names. --Animalparty! (talk) 02:41, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Donald Trump is far from the only person to deny that he is a racist. In fact, this exact quote is also mentioned at Wade Boggs, Marc Faber, Rob Ford, Mark Steyn, and several others. It's best to delete this in favor of search engine results. -- Tavix (talk) 01:35, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was moved. -- Tavix (talk) 00:42, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

8 years ago the article Peugeot Motocycles was moved to Peugeot Motorcycles because the editor thought that Motocycles was a spelling mistake. Peugeot Motocycles is the actual name of the company as it can be seen from their official website or by a google search. Please delete the redirect so I can move the page back Chris Ssk talk 21:09, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
