I'm not sure that we need a redirect to a redirect. Any way, I came across this page when it showed up as an error on my Quarry query as a cross-namespace redirect from main space. Liz Read! Talk! 18:09, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

delete. malformed, double redirect, unnecessary cross-namespace from mainspace, coincidentally the name of a likely unnotable thrash metal band, pick whatever reason you want cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 18:17, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
on that note, i'm assuming this is only here because it narrowly avoids a g6. if so, would it be because it was seemingly not created in error? cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 18:25, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
G6 requires it to be unambiguously created in error, that is not the case here. So it doesn't "narrowly avoid" G6, it doesn't meet it at all. Thryduulf (talk) 20:09, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. If it hadn't been nominated here a bot would have corrected the double redirect so that part isn't relevant, what is relevant is that we don't need cross-namespace redirects from the article namespace to the manual of style guidance about section headings. Like Cogsan I can't find evidence that the Slovenian thrash metal band are notable (if they were though the article would be at Moshead and this would be a good redirect to that article, given they refer to themselves as "Moshead" in prose but stylise it as "MOSHEAD" on all their release covers). Thryduulf (talk) 20:09, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, obviously. In fact is there any good reason for having a discussion about it, rather than just a WP:CSD#R2 speedy deletion? I can't even begin to think of any reason why this might be considered as a suitable redirect from mainspace. JBW (talk) 21:51, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirects from the mainspace to project space (which is where MOS:HEAD points) are explicitly excluded from R2. Thryduulf (talk) 00:33, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@JBW: R2 excludes redirects from the mainspace to project space. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:42, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Thryduulf and Crouch, Swale: OK, I was just going on the fact that MOS:HEAD is not in project space, and not thinking about where the page it redirects to is. However, it's still delete, just not speedy. JBW (talk) 19:22, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MOS: is now a pseudo namespace equivalent to WP:, but if it wasn't then it would be in article space making MOSHEAD → MOS:HEAD entirely within article space and thus also not eligible for R2. Thryduulf (talk) 19:44, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

that's a lot to type before a tpyo cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 16:54, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - One of the reasons I've stopped being active on RFD lately is the quantity of these kinds of entries. Nothing is gained from deleting (or even discussing) these kinds of redirects. It's unambiguous where it is meant to go, it's doing no harm, it's not wasting space - it's causing no problems. If a user types "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2: Time and Darkness Expedtion" into the search box, they are obviously trying to get to the article Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness - so not sure why this redirect would be logged here. BugGhost🦗👻 18:15, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
should note that the name isn't the reason for the nom, since it's mentioned as the translation of the games' (tie in anime's) japanese name, give or take the 2. it's the misspelling of "expedition" cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 03:01, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - While I could see someone potentially calling levels from Ocarina of Time: Master Quest the Master Levels, this does not seem to be common in actual practice. Other things being called Master Levels also seems to be rare-- not unheard of, but not common within their various communities. The Doom levels do actually seem to be called the Master Levels in practice. That makes it the WP:PTOPIC here. Note that I didn't do a huge amount of research for this, but the surface level search backs it up well enough to give it a !vote. I'm willing to be convinced otherwise given evidence of widespread use in practice, not just theory. Fieari (talk) 05:13, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Someone attempted to assassinate Donald Trump in 2016 (2016 Donald Trump Las Vegas rally incident), so the second assassination attempt would be the one in Pennsylvania. With that in mind, I think the target of this redirect should be Attempted assassination of Donald Trump. ArcticSeeress (talk) 12:14, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of the Chun King Inn in the 1964 world fair article. The only redirect target would be Chun King but again not mentioned there. Blethering Scot 12:23, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, since this redirect is pointing to the wrong page and there is no viable target. The Chun King restaurant at the 1964 World's Fair did exist, so it should in theory be retargeted to Food at the 1964 New York World's Fair. However, Chun King isn't mentioned in that article either. – Epicgenius (talk) 15:45, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was delete. plicit 13:46, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i really have to be missing something here, because every definition i found for "black box" that wasn't a vehicle part or literal black box was "a thing that does stuff that you're not allowed to see the doing of". not necessarily a macguffin, not necessarily a deus ex machina, and especially not necessarily tied to fiction, but the disambiguator takes care of that last part cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 20:23, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

for the record, until i find out what could tie this to this specific trope, my vote will be weak retarget to macguffin. seems it's sorta kinda what the last revision before being blar'd referred to (probably, maybe, i'm not sure) cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 20:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I can't really find much evidence that this term is used in fiction except in a figurative sense of an actual Black box: Hitchcock shall have saidf it in passing, and it seems to come up in Redshirts (novel). Not enough for a redirect, I think. – sgeureka tc 13:51, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, without prejudice to a sourced article being recreated. A black box as a literary device is a real thing. However, it is not the same as a deus ex machina. Retarget seems pointless. Andre🚐 06:58, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete until such time as we have information on Black Boxes in a fictional context. But from what I can tell, there's no real difference in use between the use in fiction and the use overall... its a thingy that you don't know how it works, just that it works. What more is there to say? Fieari (talk) 05:24, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to a section that doesn't exist. In fact, the article doesn't mention Bulbagarden at all, and given that Bulbagarden is just an unofficial fansite I don't see why this has to redirect to the main article on the franchise. This should be deleted. 50.29.218.72 (talk) 23:58, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Not mention at target, therefore useless. – sgeureka tc 13:52, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I remember Bulbagarden, it was a fansite many moons ago, but sadly, if it's not even mentioned as a very minor aspect of Pokemon from the late 1990s and very early 2000s, the redirect seems pointless. While I'm sympathetic to the spirit of wanting to keep this around, nostalgia isn't a reason to keep it. On the other hand, it's not harming anyone by existing, but what is the chance that someone in 2025 almost is looking for Bulbagarden either in Google or Wikipedia? Andre🚐 06:56, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: there is also Serebii. - Manifestation (talk) 17:45, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. The Pokémon article once had a short "Fan community" sub-section, which the redirect (correctly) pointed at. I revamped the article in June 2023, and opted to remove the Fan community bit because it was of low quality. I don't know if there are enough sources to create a new Fan community section. If this would one day happen, then the Bulbagarden and Bulbapedia redirects may be recreated. - Manifestation (talk) 17:45, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is plenty of coverage for a summary style section and split on Pokemon fandom/fan community, including the numerous fan sites where the Bulbagarden Bulbapedia would be worth mentioning. ("Bulbapedia, the Internet's largest informational resource on Pokémon" Porcaro, J. P. (May 2010). "The Pokémon Generation". School Library Journal. 56 (5): 24–25. ISSN 0362-8930. EBSCOhost 50337474. ) Whether it'll be made in time for this discussion is another matter. czar 12:48, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) C F A 💬 13:23, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD refers Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gaming the system. Consensus was judged to merge to the current target, chosen by an editor who admitted they had not had time to do a WP:BEFORE. It is not the best target, as the parent page was Abuse#Gaming the system. I believe it was chosen off a search and became an anchoring effect on the discussion. No one engaged with questions about most appropriate redirect. No Child Left Behind Act#Gaming the system also has a section. 4150 Wikipedia pages mention gaming the system. Suggest either the redirect is deleted to allow base search to do its thing, or else disambiguate - a DAB should be created. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 08:10, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Having looked at all the pages I can find that are not just examples or passing uses of the term, the current target is the best we have. It could be expanded with a couple of well-chosen illustrative examples (as long as it doesn't become the mess that led to the AfD) but I don't think we can do better than that. Thryduulf (talk) 12:52, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Bending the rules redirects to this redirect. A softdirect to wiktionary wikt:game the synstem is also possible. – sgeureka tc 14:07, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - This target discusses the term directly, other uses on wikipedia are simply using the term as it means. It's the best target I can see... no need for a DAB, and letting the default search engine handle it would be a disaster exactly because there are so many mentions where the phrase is used (but not discussed in and of itself).

No mention of "Wu-Tang" in the children's section, and no mention of children pertaining to Wu-Tang's entry. Without any context at the target page, this redirect does not answer questions for the reader, and only creates them (as I am now confused and am searching externally to find this, as the Wikipedia page has not assisted this).

The result of the discussion was delete. Complex/Rational 15:31, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This lyric is not mentioned at the target article. It is far more plausible for someone to type in the name of the song, rather than a full lyric ending in the word "imitating", which "imitating" does not appear at the target article. This is not an alternative name for the song, even if a line in the chorus. Utopes (talk / cont) 17:36, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Redirects from sufficiently well-known song lyrics can be useful even if the lyric in question is not mentioned in the article. This line contains much of the song's chorus, and is therefore likely to meet that threshold of utility. While I do agree that it's unlikely a user would type out this entire lyric, I find it plausible that one might type in, say, "I'm Slim Shady" alone—at which point the redirect pops up as a suggested search, and the reader ultimately benefits.

Delete (1) There is no plausible scenario of any Internet user capable of typing 85 characters of lyrics that names Slim Shady twice without first trying Google for slim shady song that will lead them to this poetic masterpiece in the first lines of output - multiple times.

Not mentioned at target. 1234qwer1234qwer4 02:32, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete unless a mention is added. It's not currently mentioned anywhere on en.wp. It was mentioned in the article when the redirect was created. WikiBlame is just timing out so I can't easily find when and why it was removed. The mention at the time was unsourced, but google suggests it would be trivially sourceable. I have no opinion whether it should be mentioned. Thryduulf (talk) 13:00, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This abbreviation of single-member district plurality is not mentioned at the target; at the same time, there are Santa Monica Daily Press and St Martin de Porres School (Ghana) (or probably other entries at St. Martin de Porres (disambiguation) as well), so it might need disambiguation. 1234qwer1234qwer4 02:25, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambig. Senior Management Development Programme in the UK, Simple Mail Delivery Protocol (unlikely to ever get an article, but notable), Semi-Markov decision processes in math popped up in searches. Викидим (talk) 17:56, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After Special:Diff/1236379436, the target section only contains a single entry, so this is no longer an {{R from incomplete disambiguation}}. I'm not sure Free (programming) would be a great target, though. 1234qwer1234qwer4 01:19, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment My first thought is that Free software at least should be reinstated to that list as people will be using it to find that meaning of Free in the context of computing. Thryduulf (talk) 03:46, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My guess would be that this was about freeing memory. Andre🚐 07:03, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's one use, but not the only one. Thryduulf (talk) 20:23, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and add Free software back per Thryduulf. Unlike most of the entries that were removed, "free" isn't just a partial title match for the adjective here – it has a unique and specific meaning in the context of computing, and is frequently used without the word "software" following it (e.g., "free license"). I think it's comparable to the mathematics entries that were restored in Special:Diff/1247983641. jlwoodwa (talk) 20:17, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Distinguish redirect

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 02:34, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The title of this redirect can be seen as misleading since the target template first takes a parameter to fulfill the "Redirect" statement, and then the second parameter is used to fulfill the "distinguish" statement. Someone who does not know how the target template works could see this redirect's title and potentially do these in reverse order, which is not what the target template is used for. Steel1943 (talk) 01:01, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: the original usage is {{Redirect-distinguish|REDIRECT|PAGE1|PAGE2}}. the synonym provides {{distinguish redirect|REDIRECT|PAGE1|PAGE2}}, which reads more like a command, hence it's useful as a mnemonic. the distinguishable pages are not mentioned in the template name, original or its synonym. fgnievinski (talk) 01:17, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Leaning keep as well. This seems rather harmless and definitely aids searching for the correct template. 1234qwer1234qwer4 02:26, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above. I don't see this as misleading at all, but a very useful redirect from a reordering of words with the same meaning. Thryduulf (talk) 03:47, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
