The result of the discussion was retarget to Ahu. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 03:47, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target. Search results suggest that this is referring to some sort of altar or shrine, but no article currently describes the topic on its own. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 20:26, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned in target article. Possibly the shark mentioned at Crippled Summer, but as I've never seen the show, I have no idea if this would make a plausible redirect for that. Hog Farm Talk 22:53, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Keep. This is an obvious Keep close, and I also added a hatnote to the house article.( Non-admin closure) Jackattack1597 (talk) 00:08, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just to let you know, it would only make sense for the hatnote to be on the article that the redirect points to – I think you got confused about the different meanings of to. Added anyhow. J947messageedits 00:23, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly ambiguous, can refer to the namesake of Capt. Thomas Moore House. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 18:57, 30 April 2021 (UTC) Also Thomas Patrick Moore and Thomas Moore (British Army Paymaster of the Forces Abroad). ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 20:42, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:RLOTE, no specific affinity between Elizabeth II and Turkey or Turkish signed, Rosguill talk 17:38, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As for the language of Akrotiri & Dhekelia, the only official language there is English; Turkish speakers are a small minority, and based on the Cypriot politics of the last half century, I would guess their loyal toasts are aimed in the direction of Ankara rather than London. I think the whole A&D issue here is a red herring. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:57, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at the target, delete unless a justification can be provided. This appears to be the name of a data scientist based on Google Scholar search results, but unless they are discussed at the target there isn't much use for the redirect. signed, Rosguill talk 17:34, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was Speedy delete per G7. (non-admin closure). Crouch, Swale (talk) 06:30, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to have been from an accident or vandalism in GeoNames, see the edit history of the entry for Shenley settlement. Google results bring up Shenley Road (presumably thinking Shenley Avenue) and mirrors of GeoNames. The redirect is therefore ambiguous and incorrect since its from a source error that existed from 2010 to 2017 but has now been corrected. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:14, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Only mentioned on enwiki in passing at Clone trooper and in the name "Interior Tipoca City" in a cue list at Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones (soundtrack). IMO neither of those are helpful targets, so deletion is best unless a sourced mention is added somewhere. Hog Farm Talk 17:03, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is no article about the base compound. Should this redirect be deleted per WP:REDLINK, or should the target be moved over this redirect or to another title? –LaundryPizza03 (d) 16:31, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • keep - until an article about the base compound is actually written. Information on the subgroup overlaps significantly with the compound. --awkwafaba (📥) 16:49, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There is no chemical compound called "Vinyl iodide". SCP-053 (talk) 23:38, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete until an article about the compound is written, consistent with WP:RED. No incoming links in articlespace to worry about, and searchers will still find the current target once something close to vinyl iodide is entered. I think the current target should be moved to Vinyl iodide group per WP:CONCISE and consistent with at least some other functional group articles, but perhaps that's a question for a requested move, and the naming conventions of the functional group articles are kind an inconsistent mess anyway, so I'm not worried about such a minor improvement at the moment. Mdewman6 (talk) 00:50, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The current target is closely related to the topic, and contains the most relevant content to what the reader is looking for. The redirect can be expanded into an article later, but it currently lands the reader to information they are looking for. Hog Farm Talk 00:54, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect that is not explained in the target article, but was created twelve years ago by an account that has now been globally locked. In the absence of a better explanation, suggest that the redirect be viewed as vandalism. Robert McClenon (talk) 13:01, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:RDAB, implausible typo with missing right paren. Was only an article for a mere 10 minutes in 2016 before being changed to a redirect. —Bagumba (talk) 10:04, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Traditional Chinese form of the company name. 里 in Simplified Chinese corresponds to two different Traditional characters, 里 ("mile") and 裡 ("lining, inside"). The company name uses the former, not the latter (see e.g. zh.wp, yue.wp). Deryck C. 09:45, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, it's not a plausible typo. I suppose it's a somewhat plausible misspelling – someone who is accustomed to simplified characters but trying to write with traditional characters might use 裡 in this word by mistake. But is that reason enough to keep the redirect on the English-language Wikipedia? Probably not. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 18:30, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is an input method argument for typos, not someone trying out character input recognition method, and then dumping that into Wikipedia's searchbox. If they misidentified the traditional character and used it, it should exist as a redirect. -- 67.70.27.105 (talk) 11:38, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This was deleted per WP:R3 (implausible typo). Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2021 April 21 overturned the deletion and sent the redirect here for discussion. This is a procedural nomination, I am neutral. Sandstein 09:38, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. plicit 10:54, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article is brand new. Was moved from namespace (1st redirect created) then moved again to correct title case (2nd redirect created). 2nd redirect created a double redirect that a bot later correct. However, because the article is brand new, no redirects are necessary and any future redirects will again create a double redirect. Michael.C.Wright (talk) 09:25, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep this is a harmless {{R from other capitalisation}}. Thryduulf (talk) 11:08, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yeah, I meant to mention that - this kind capitalization redirect is almost invariably retained as being a plausible alternate search term someone might type in. Don't bother yourself about it :) --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 14:03, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Seems a logical and plausible alternate search term. And harmless, as well. Hog Farm Talk 22:40, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Harmless redirect from capitalisation. Should only be deleted if target article is also deleted. JIP | Talk 15:09, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete even though keeping it is harmless and the redirected version is a plausible search term, the search function is case-insensitive. When one searches for "Starmaya coffee" two things of note happen: 1) after the word "starmaya" is entered, it automatically provides both versions (making the case of "coffee" moot) and 2) regardless of which version one searches for, both versions appear in the results field. My last point is that because the article was new, there were no links to be corrected (the only benefit of non-disambiguation redirects is preventing previous links from being broken). I understand redirects are "cheap" and normally kept, but neither should be the sole reason for a redirect's continued existence. If the original reason for the redirect is simply the case of the title, not disambiguation, and it's a new article, then according to that logic we should include redirects for all case combinations of all new articles, which isn't done. Michael.C.Wright (talk) 23:31, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'll also add (and *try* to leave it at this) that it is stated that redirects can be suppressed for "...userfying recently created malplaced items..." which succinctly describes this situation: a recently created, malplaced item. Michael.C.Wright (talk) 07:06, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It is true that the search function is case-insensitive, but the internal search engine is not the only way people navigate to Wikipedia articles. There are many other methods that are also used, some of which are case sensitive. We only delete redirects when they are harmful - i.e. their existence causes problems of some sort that are greater than any benefits they bring. In this case though the redirect has benefits and causes no harm at all. Thryduulf (talk) 07:29, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fairly confused by this one. "Johnson Aviation" is not mentioned in the target article, and it wasn't mentioned in the revision current when this was created, either. WP:BEFORE turns up aircraft companies in Iowa and Texas, although I did find one site I don't think is RS connecting a Ft. Lauderdale DEA office and "Johnson Aviation". Unless a clear connection can be formed, I don't think this should exist. Hog Farm Talk 04:16, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

While there are a few scattered mentions of Vjun on enwiki that my attempts at using the search function turns up, none are in the current target, and all are about a castle, not a meeting. Doesn't seem useful. Hog Farm Talk 02:54, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
