I was not sure if I could call it a typo and apply a speedy deletion- that is why it is here.--Müdigkeit (talk)21:00, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You probably could, because it was a recently created redirect; don't bother applying a speedy tag yet because I've taggedHope in transition for AfD, and this should go with it.--Launchballer21:15, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:FORRED

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'stalk page or in adeletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion waskeep. This is a valid short-cut withWP:SHORTCUT not barring short-cuts to essays. As several commentators have said the essay can be challenged atWP:MFD. NAC.The Whispering Wind (talk)00:54, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• WP:FORREDWP:FORRED →Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Redirects from foreign languages(links to redirect •history •stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

Deletion: This redirect falls under confusion and self-promotion/spam. This isno policy limiting "redirects from foreign languages" but this redirect patterns itself as though this proposed policy were already settled law. It is bupkis, but it is being citedover 60 times in current discussions on this page, withno mention of the non-policy nature of the page at any of the initial links (and not always appearing even in the rebuttals). This proposal shouldnot have a WP:~ style redirect, misleading editors into posting or positing it as though it were policy.  — LlywelynII17:02, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Wrong forum: of courseWikipedia essays are allowed to have shortcuts and are forced to use "WP:" prefix (seeWP:SASC). This one is "accessible" rendition ofWP:R#DELETE criterion 8 sub-criterion, and it is used over 60 times because it also represents common practice on RfD, and foreign name redirects are frequent here recently. —Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track)17:24, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • They should have a separate designation that prevents users (such as yourself) from misleadingly employing them as authorities:Wikipedia:Essays are not policy. That said, if it's currently completely standard to use WP:~ as the prefix for essays, granted, there's nothing special about this use and we should just have the admins who wander this page slapping more hands. — LlywelynII04:03, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sorry for misleading you, but it isyour fault: shortcuts' prefixes are not supposed to mean anything but namespace. SeeingT:WPFS you know this is redirect to template. Why seeingWP:FORRED you imply policy? —Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track)08:43, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Wrong forum/keep. The nominator's quarrel isn't with the redirect, but rather its target page. Take it toWP:MFD.Steel1943 (talk)17:30, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nope. My quarrel isn't with the target page at all. It's with the redirect allowing editors here to pretend that it's a policy in their arguments:WP:DONTCITEESSAYSASPOLICY. — LlywelynII04:03, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Still sounds like anWP:MFD issue. Yeah sure, it's an essay, but editors can cite it. If you don't agree with it, nominate it for deletion. If this redirect doesn't exist, the essay still will, and editors will just citethe entire name of the essay. I'm not seeing how deleting this redirect is going to assist your cause. By the way,keep given what I just said.Steel1943 (talk)04:21, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• By the way, do you realize that you cited anessay to dispute citing anessay? The point attempted here kind of collapsed on itself.Steel1943 (talk)04:36, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Another issue here is that the essay is based on the eighth entry as reasons for deleting at the top of the pageIf the redirect is a novel or very obscure synonym for an article name, it is unlikely to be useful. In particular, redirects from a foreign language title to a page whose subject is unrelated to that language (or a culture that speaks that language) should generally not be created. Improbable typos or misnomers are potential candidates for speedy deletion, if recently created. I may be wrong but I don't think that was recently added so the idea that we don't want foreign language redirects created is not bupkis made to look like a policy. For that reason I doubt that a MFD will be successful. Finally, if this really was an essay masquerading as policy with no actual support I am sure that one of the administrators that have closed RFD's of this nature would have realized this by now, disregarded comments that used WP:FORRED as a rational, and kept the redirect due to the deletion views being discounted.--76.65.43.92 (talk)22:30, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The redirect is perfectly appropriate for the target page. As others have advised, if you have a problem with the target page then MfD is the correct venue.Thryduulf (talk)20:15, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Reading Llywelyn's discussions elsewhere (Wikipedia talk:Redirects for discussion/Redirects from foreign languages#This is a terrible policy) imply that he might wish to retarget toWP:R#DELETE criterion 8 which actually is policy.Ego White Tray (talk)05:30, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Which I also firmly disagree with as the essay is an accessible version of the policy.--Launchballer08:36, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We would need to remove several long standing and commonly used redirects to essays if we decided to do this. What would have to go would includeWP:SNOW, seveal redirerects toWP:ATA suck asWP:ILIKEIT andWP:WAX, not to mention the often usedWP:BOOMERANG etc.--76.65.43.92 (talk)05:06, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Laïki Bank

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'stalk page or in adeletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the discussion wasretarget toCyprus Popular Bank. The consensus is to keep this redirect as a plausible misspelling. I am closing as a retarget because the misspelling should go to the same target as the correctly spelt redirect (Laiki Bank) and I am taking no position as to which is the better target. NAC.The Whispering Wind (talk)02:24, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Laïki BankLaïki Bank →CPB Bank(links to redirect •history •stats)     [ Closure: keep/delete ] 

The action I would like to occur: Deletion. The rationale for that action:Laiki Bank redirects toCyprus Popular Bank.Laïki Bank is aWikipedia:R3#R3 case (Wikipedia:R#DELETE 8 case). In addition to that,Laïki Bank is aWikipedia:R#DELETE 2 case.94.64.152.162 (talk)15:46, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: CPB Bank is a product of consolidation of several banks includingLaiki Bank, which is mentioned in article text. Regarding odd "ï" in page's name: I couldn't to find any reference to the bank's name with "ï", but that was the name the target article had for nearly a month (apparently there was a time in beginning of 2013 when CPB was called "Laiki Bank"), so this typo is evidently plausible. —Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track)17:01, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: I do not understand how you conclude that "this typo is evidently plausible", as you admit that there is no reference to the name of the bank with "odd" "ï". However, I see the substantial meaning of your claim. Thus, I suggest that one of the following is done: 1. Laiki Bank will become a disambiguation page with two options, Cyprus Popular Bank and CPB Bank, 2. CPB Bank will be merged into Cyprus Popular Bank. No matter what the final choice will be, option 1 could be a temporary solution. In any case, this page (Laïki Bank) must be deleted as soon as possible for the reasons which have been mentioned.— Precedingunsigned comment added by94.64.136.141 (talk)18:50, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The very fact that the target article was moved to this name shows that this typo happens. The fact that the article remained under this name until it was moved to its current location indicates that this typo was not spotted, which (sort of) contributes to plausibility. More importantly, we need a good reason to delete redirect after page move. Merging articles is out of scope of this discussion. —Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track)21:37, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep the Greek term is Λαϊκή with the dieresis, so it's unsurprising some people spell it that way in English. Google finds quite a lot of English language results using the term.Siuenti (talk)20:05, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: This (ï) is not an english or a greek character. Typing what on their keyboard will some people spell it that way in English? (This is the greek character: ϊ. On the page there seems to be no difference, but on the editing the difference is obvious.)— Precedingunsigned comment added by94.64.157.67 (talk)21:10, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • On my keyboard I type it asdead dieresis+i.Users of other keyboard layouts may need different manipulations, eg. pressingï... —Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk•track)21:37, 15 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Now I understand the issue and stop insisting on the deletion of this redirect page. If the final decision is to keep it, then we must fix another issue, which may be out of the subject. Laiki Bank and Laïki Bank are the same and have to do with both Cyprus Popular Bank and CPB Bank. Thus, I suggest that one of the two options described above is implemented. According to option 1 Laïki Bank will redirect to Laiki Bank. According to option 2 Laïki Bank will redirect to Cyprus Popular Bank.— Precedingunsigned comment added by94.64.157.67 (talk •contribs)
• Target somewhere as mentioned, an article was created with theï so it obviously means something to someone, and is therefore a plausible redirect. I am not going to pretend to know the history of the banking system of Cyprus, but the redirect should be targeted somewhere.--kelapstick^(bainuu)11:15, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• I have the impression that there is a consensus to keep it. I would like to express my intention to proceed to the implementation of the above mentioned option 1, after the closure of this discussion, as long as there is no opposite decision. (I think that it is obvious, but I would like to clarify it to avoid any misunderstanding. I am the (sole until now) nonuser involved in the issue.)— Precedingunsigned comment added by94.64.81.73 (talk)16:00, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I agree that poetic meaning does not warrant redirect. Still, I don't see how this fact discards the obscure historic reference to the gulf.
