• Keep Unless I've misunderstood, the promoting part aside, that sounds like a problem with the article and not the redirect. How does this redirect "promote" the target, it looks like nothing other then a perfectly plausible redirect to me.Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk)06:50, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Pepsi Coliseum should be redirected to the arena in Quebec now (Colisée Pepsi), because the arena in Indianapolis is a) not currently in operation, being closed for renovation, and b) doesn't have Pepsi in its name anymorepbp22:12, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• At 14:33, 8 February 2014‎ I obeyed a request to history-mergeWikipedia:Kaiperambalur toKai Perambalur. Later someone copy-and-pastedKai Perambalur toWikipedia:Kaiperambalur. At 19:24, 9 February 2014‎ I history-merged this newWikipedia:Kaiperambalur toKai Perambalur, and then movedKai Perambalur toKaiperambalur.Anthony Appleyard (talk)20:39, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, a user movedKai Perambalur toWikipedia:Kaiperambalur usingSpecial:MovePage and then moved it back using copy and paste move. When I noticed that, I requested a{{histmerge}}. Today, it turned out that it had been moved toWikipedia:Kaiperambalur again, this time as a copy & paste move. I do not see why anyone would look for an article about a location like this in the Wikipedia namespace, so I don't think that a redirect from there is needed. It is true that the article was in the Wikipedia namespace for a couple of days, but there were probably not many who noticed this.

There was also an additional change fromKai Perambalur toKaiperambalur. Google Maps displays the place as "Kaiperambalur" but accepts "Kai Perambalur" as identical when typed in in the search box. Bing Maps displays the place as "Kai Perambalur" but also accepts searches for "Kaiperambalur". Therefore, I would assume that both names are valid and that we should choose one of them and have a redirect from the other one, as we currently do. --Stefan2 (talk)23:28, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Next generation (video game consoles) →History of video game consoles (eighth generation) (links ·history ·stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ]
• Upcoming Xbox console →History of video game consoles (eighth generation) (links ·history ·stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ]

These redirects are speculative and subject toWP:CRYSTAL. Wikipedia is not a source for speculation, and we don't know if there will be any next generation consoles ("next generation" referring to the generation following the current). See also theRFD for "Next gen consoles".Heymid (contribs)13:49, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• KeepRetarget/Delete/NeutralKeepretarget the first one toHistory of video games, delete the second one, neutral on the third. We can have sourced material about the next generation, and the history article would be the appropriate place for it. If that sourced material includes comparisons and are in our article, then the third one is reasonable. The second redirect, about the Xbox is not reasonable, that requiresWP:CRYSTAL knowledge that the next Xbox will be called Xbox and will exist. However, new videogame consoles are always being produced, so the first one isn't very crystal, since we should be able to find sourced material to support some new iteration of something. --70.24.244.161 (talk)07:53, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • My point is, we don't know about the future. For example, we don't know whether Sony is currently working on a new console, a PlayStation 5, and/or a new handheld etc. I believe it's not Wikipedia's duty to speculate about the future. I also feel that the term "next generation" is too subjective; some refer to it as the current generation of consoles (the eighth), others refer to it as the future generation of consoles (the ninth).Heymid (contribs)09:04, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • The right place to point "next generation" and "comparison" would beHistory of video games. Whatever someone's subjective view of what next generation means, it'll be part of that article. Whether the next gen is PS4 or next revision Ouya, it's part of the history of videogaming. Sorry about being unclear as to what I was meaning on the first redirect. --70.24.244.161 (talk)12:05, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
