No mention of the person at the target page Ronhjones  ^(Talk)21:11, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per Ronhjones andWP:N. I presume, though I can't find it, there was information there that has been removed: The R is actually an{{R to section}} to section "Marina Keegan Tragedy"; but not tagged as such, and there is no such section, a quick Google search for "Marina Keegan Tragedy" shows that she was a graduate who died in a car crash a few days after graduating fromYale University (e.g.here at the Huffington Post). That does not make her notable, people die in car crashes every day unfortunately, and there is no other indication of notability.

According to that article she wrote for the college magazine, was once mentioned on USNational Public Radio and acted in some am-dram. So what, I have been on BBC radio half a dozen times, in a school quiz show and on a consumer phone-in show,, I apppeared briefly on Swedish television, built the sets for an amateur production ofPirates of Penzance when at University and did front of house, and edited a parish magazine for five years. I have been on the front page of theCambridge News after a car accident (nobody was hurt). But I am not notable because those are just normal things people do. We don't have an article for every member of theCambridge Footlights, for example, or everyone who plays the violin. She is not notable.Si Trew (talk)07:44, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• In fairness, Cambridge has a dearth of news and the Cambridge News is always hard pressed for stories, lest they merely reprint "Guided busway a disaster" madlibs, which ain't as true of the Huffington Post. But, since she's not mentioned in the article, there's no sense in a redirect. If it's not notable, sending readers there does them no service. If it is notable, it probably should have it's own article, since it's way too detailed for this as a parent. So that's moot.WilyD12:45, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Actually I swear they keep "Lorry crash on A14" permanently set up in type, especially for Fridays. I used to drink with a photographer, cub reporter, of theCambridge News some years ago and you can tell that what stories they put in are wherever the photographer can get to. Ideally you want the crash to be right by an overbridge.Si Trew (talk)12:59, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Look at the redirectat its creation and the mystery is is solved. Keegan was formerly the subject of a section ofYale College Democrats, which was later redirected toCollege Democrats atAfD (which, itself, was later renamedCollege Democrats of America). Not long after,Yale College Democrats was retargeted toList of Yale University student organizations. This redirect, then, is quite literallycruft. --BDD (talk)19:02, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Unfortunately, various parts of the British media have used this name for her on a regular basis. That information was in the article at some point, but it appears to have been removed.

Retrieved7 April 2014.. —Scott•talk22:22, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per Scott.WP:RNEUTRAL applies here, as this term has been very widely used to refer to Amanda Knox and so it is a likely search term. I can't remember if we have a way of explicitly marking redirects as non-neutral, but if we do then that should be done on this redirect.Thryduulf (talk)23:50, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know of such a tagging, but{{R unprintworthy}} is always an option. --BDD (talk)23:55, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep – the term is well established, even if used pejoratively. As the second-to-last sentence ofWP:RNEUTRAL states: "... if a redirect represents an established term that is used in multiple mainstream reliable sources, it should be kept even if non-neutral, as it will facilitate searches on such terms".SuperMarioMan(talk )03:41, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as above. I am not sure "Foxy" is used pejoratively even, it usually means kinda "sexy" and is used fondly, at least in British English. Wiktionary lists it at sense 2 as "attractive, sexy".Si Trew (talk)07:18, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a well-known song (90 visits in the last 90 days→1 visit on a daily basis); it was not released as a single, does not have a video, is not performed live, or in other words, it has not received any media coverage.Вик Ретлхед (talk)18:17, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Redirects don't need to meet notability standards. "Blood (Anthrax song)" is only going to refer to a specific songreleased from published on that album. SeeWP:NSONG, which says "Songs that do not rise to notability for an independent article should redirect to another relevant article, such as for the songwriter, a prominent album or for the artist who prominently performed the song." --BDD (talk)19:10, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My point is that the song was not released in any format (single, digital download, etc.) nor it has been performed by the artist. That's why I seek deletion in the first place.--Вик Ретлхед (talk)22:10, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

But what does that matter? It means it shouldn't have its ownarticle, but that's all. --BDD (talk)22:31, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, your argument was that the song was released from the album→it was not. Neither did the artist "prominently performed the song". Plus, one visit a day shows that the redirect is not needed at all.--Вик Ретлхед (talk)22:35, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see, poor choice of words on my part. I've struck that and replaced it with better wording. --BDD (talk)23:58, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. In addition to BDD's rationale, "not needed" is a subjective criterion and not one that is a valid reason to delete a redirect. What matters is that it is plausible, leads to the most relevant target and doesn't mislead - and it meets all three of those requirements with ease. One visit a day also shows that the redirect is being used - bots and the like are typically responsible for a single-digit number of visits each month.Thryduulf (talk)23:54, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Zloty (Tintin) →List of The Adventures of Tintin characters(links to redirect •history •stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Previously listed atWikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2014 April 1#Zloty (Tintin), this redirect isn't mentioned at the target page. This second listing feels a bit bureaucratic, but it wasn't my choice.BDD (talk)16:11, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There's also a problem with hatnoting here.zloty redirects toPolish zloty, which is hatnoted to say thatzloti redirects there but not to say thatzloty does, and does not hatnote toZloty (Tintin) or its targetList of the Adventures of Tintin characters. I don't see the need for a DAB but once consensus is reached we should tie up the hatnoting atPolish zloty.

Or for that matter move it over to Zloty, I don't see why we have to say Polish. But perhaps that is just a policy, but we havePound sterling as the article title rather thanBritish pound sterling andIrish punt redirects toIrish pound,schilling redirects toAustrian schilling(why not use the shorter title?),shilling is an article for the old British coin with a DAB atshilling (disambiguation) anddeutschemark redirects toDeutsche Mark and calling it the German Deutche Mark would be a bit redundant. Of course these things tend to be vestiges of editing history.WP:CURRENCY (in the MOS) has little to say on the matter of titles for currency/numismatic articles but just how to write them in the article itself.Kronor redirects to the DABKrona.Guilder has an article about various historic coins but to find the old Netherlands currency, again it is not hatnoted from there, needs to be searched withDutch guilder (although it is referenced fromFlorin. TakingOccam's Razor I am not going to needlessly multiply examples but there is a lot of inconsistency here.Si Trew (talk)08:39, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Moving this to Zloty is appropriate only if it is the primary topic for this term, and I'd be mighty surprised if it was. I currently have no opinion on where the currency articles should point, but it does seem like a mess and so a discussion at an appropriate venue (possiblyWikipedia talk:WikiProject Numismatics? Somewhere in the manual of style?) would likely be a good idea.Thryduulf (talk)18:33, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I would say it is primary. What else are you going to put there? But there is such an inconsistency, of currencies some of which are named for their countries and some of which are named just for themselves, that it is hard to argue it.Si Trew (talk)19:05, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OK I take it as you suggest toikipedia talk:WikiProject Numismatics. Bt I am bloody useless at getting this kind of thing right so if I cock it up can you follow me?Si Trew (talk)19:12, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Irrelevant joke. In England, mostTesco stores have a "Polish" aisle with imported products for people from Poland (who have always been our allies). (Poland was the first country Tesco expanded to outside the UK; Hungary was the second). What I tend to do is move theMr Sheen and boot polish andWindolene and stuff like that round into that section: but I have never been found out yet.Si Trew (talk)20:14, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support. This character does not exist in theList of The Adventures of Tintin characters and is a less-then-minor character in the Tintin canon. Deleteas soon as possible. I supportBDD for listing this for deletion.Si Trew orThryduulf are welcome to improve the polish currency pages as they state above, as it is irrelevant to this page.Prhartcom (talk)23:21, 10 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't have an opinion about this redirect, other than it should definitely not be moved tozloty. I haven't investigated the Tintin characters and don't have the time presently. I don't see a reason to doubt Prthartcom's findings, but I don't understand why they feel the need to hurry?Thryduulf (talk)17:13, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I would say thatZloti orZloty was primary rather thanPolish zloty. What other country has a currency called that? So there is no need to call it "Polish Zloty".Forint redirects toHungarian forint and as I mentioned aboveschilling redirects toAustrian schilling,Kenyan shilling has an article butshilling goes back to the old British shilling (I remember King George VI on the obverse because withdecimalisation they made them the same size and weight on purpose and looked just like my dad, cos my dad worked away a lot I thought there he is right on the coins, not that I thought he was the King but he was a dead ringer for old George, bald and ugly, traits I have inherited). Perhaps there is a policy to name currencies starting with the country name, but I couldn't find it and is not mentioned atWP:CURRENCY. If there's no connection to Hergés adventures of TinTin, I should say delete it.Si Trew (talk)18:23, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've heard that question before, "what can I get for fifteen pence", but politely declined. Did you see the new design of the twelve-sided one pound coin? It looks very nice I think. It's not on Wikipedia yet, perhaps a bit WP:CRYSTAL although it is being minted for next year down atLlantrisant,the hole with the mint in it.Si Trew (talk)20:26, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You can get a 3microfaradcapacitor inMaplin Electronics for nine pence. You could also maybe get a packet ofRizla papers, but they seem to be more pricey nowadays. On the other hand, a UK ten penny piece works in a Canadian parking meter as a quarter: which depending on the exchange rate saves you approximately nothing.Si Trew (talk)01:51, 10 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. We don't usually enter books by subtitle, perWP:TITLE, this is unnecessary.Si Trew (talk)10:27, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Just because we don't include book subtitles in our article titles does not make them bad redirects. Indeed, on the contrary the full title of a book is avery likely search term - doubly so if there are other books with similar titles. Deletion would bring absolutely no benefit to the encyclopaedia while inconveniencing people who use it and potentially breaking incomming links.Thryduulf (talk)12:59, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Perhaps I am being overly pedantic, but the redirect seems unnecessary and – which is more to the point – harmful: let the search engine do it. We also have "largest" twice in the title: unlikely search term.Si Trew (talk)10:15, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete seems overly redundant for a redirect "largest world's largest"? pointless repetition. --70.24.250.235 (talk)03:46, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I have to agree with the comments above about the repetitiveness of "largest world's largest" islands. A list titled "List of world's largest islands" would be more appropriate, despite its obvious ambiguity over size versus population. But using "List of largest world's largest island" is just poor English and probably does not belong in an encyclopedia. Steve .Stevenmitchell (talk)23:59, 10 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Lists of the world’s largest pipe organs →List of pipe organs(links to redirect •history •stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Delete as below. I have no objection to the list, but nobody will search for the world's largest pipe organ this way, and the R to section is not to the "World's Largest" but to section "Large Organs", which does not actually exist (I imagine it did some time in its history). I suppose lots of people search Google for large organs and get surprising results!Si Trew (talk)10:05, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Retarget toList_of_pipe_organs#The_largest_pipe_organs_in_the_world where it is discussed. The idea that nobody will search for this is completely absurd, regardless of your view of the morality of it, people are obsessed with big things.WilyD09:50, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget per WilyD. It's not a question of morality but simply whether it is a likely search term and helps or hinders people finding what they want. The reason I said nobody would search of it is that it is "Lists of", not "List of", so that implies that there are a number of lists of the world's largest pipe organs and someone is going to search for "Lists of", which seems unlikely: however, for incoming links etc it is better to retarget it where you said than delete it. I did actually throw "large organ" into Google earlier and to my surprise it came up with loads of results for musical instruments when I was expecting to get something else.Si Trew (talk)10:03, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget as above, and rename toList of the world's largest pipe organs while we're at it, so it not only makes sense but complies withMOS:PUNCT, as if you look carefully at this title you'll notice that it contains a curly apostrophe. —Scott•talk13:18, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I hadn't noticed the curly apos but I am on a small screen. Well spotted.Si Trew (talk)20:37, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment'. Although that was just my joking, do we need to do something withworld's largest organ then? It redirects toWanamaker Organ, but the lede startsThe Wanamaker Grand Court Organ, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is the largest operational(ref) pipe organ in the world. I am not sure that is true. I have had the pleasure of hearing theRoyal Albert Hall Organ atThe Proms and that article says it is the second-largest in the UK after that inLiverpool Cathedral. Something needs to be sorted out here.List of pipe organs calls the Philly one the "second largest organ based on number of pipes, and the largest in the world based on number of ranks and physical mass weight". Since mass and weight scientifically are different things, that is a bit meaningless in itself, but if the list says it is the second largest then why shouldWorld's largest organ redirect to it?Si Trew (talk)10:08, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. I will add that I stumbled upon this redirect a few days ago when I was creating several domain name redirects. I figured that wikipedia.org already had one, but decided to type that into the search bar, just in case; two results appeared:Wikipedia.org andWikipedia.org/wiki/Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Negeri Sembilan. The redirect appeared quite out of place, and I didn't figure that anyone would ever think to search the target page by typing in such a long URL (plus, asThryduulf has pointed out, it neglecteden). For those reasons, and others, I listed the redirect atWikipedia:Redirects for discussion, but I lazed out on giving the reasons for deletion.Dustin(talk)04:44, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
