According to the redirect history, "Coffee Vision Inc" appears to have been afranchising company that held 40 Starbucks stores inQuebec before 2008. It's completely non-notable and not mentioned in the main Starbucks article. It had a{{prod2}} template, but was redirected instead of deleted, even though the redirector stated that "there isn't anything of sufficient signifcance (sic) in this article to merge into the Starbucks article." This needs to be red to show that we don't have any information on the subject in the off chance someone searches for this. I am also including the child redirects from this former article. --Tavix(talk)23:01, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In a nutshell ... delete perWP:REDLINK.Steel1943 (talk)17:58, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree since readers will think they are arriving at information about the subject, just to only see a "show name (year)" entry in a specific section on its broadcast station's article. The more appropriate action in this case would be to delete the redirect, list the link to the redirect on the appropriate disambiguation page as aWP:REDLINK entry that meetsMOS:DABMENTION (probably in this case by linkingAMC (TV channel) somewhere in the entry), then look for other articles where this title can be linked to help promote article creation.Steel1943 (talk)19:55, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This seems a bit NPOV, especially considering that there is no specific section for criticism of Richard Dawkins. It was originally an article with a small amount of content, but it was just redirected.JZCL17:31, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- The result of the discussion wasrestore. "Deletion by redirection" is a legitimate action, though subject to theWP:BRD cycle. As a closer, I wouldn't be opposed to deleting such a page after it comes up here, but I would need stronger consensus to do so. --BDD (talk)14:03, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Old, apparently non-notable, article reduced to a redirect last December. While I'm not sure I have an immediate opinion on the notability of the programming language (at first glance the old article appears pretty unnotable, and unreferenced), the redirect toList of programming languages is clearly inappropriate. Probably outright deletion of this article is the best idea.Rwessel (talk)17:09, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Note:List of programming languages, as do many list articles, lists only subjects with Wikipedia articles. A circular link toEscapade (programming language) was deleted today (prompting this RfD), presumably the redirect was added on the basis that Escapade was mentioned in the list article.Rwessel (talk)17:16, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete; all these are wrongly constructed (the creator meant to say "after" instead of "before"), are not phrases that occur anywhere else besides Wikipedia and its spawn, and are unnecessary since "yod-dropping" andyod dropping cover all of them. Existence of these red herrings means that when you type in "yod dropping" you see these instead of the link you want.W. P. Uzer (talk)16:46, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. --Rubbishcomputer20:04, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. These pages began as articles way back in 2005 -- IIRC, they were created by an anon who started countless questionable language-related pages. (I was alerted because I merged them all into a single "Yod-dropping" page, which is now a redirect.) Per nom they clutter search results and cause confusion, and are so unlikely as search terms it's not worth all the problems they cause.szyslak (t)05:12, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The Persian language is not a Turkish-language topic.Gorobay (talk)14:39, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - why wouldn't it be? Much of the area that is nowTurkey was under the rule of differentPersian conquests in antiquity, and the area is relevant now in the geopolitical sphere of modern Persian speakers. Seems harmless.Ivanvector 🍁 (talk)14:57, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]- There are many things relevant to Persian-speakers that should not have Persian redirects, e.g. the United States. My rule of thumb for whether to delete this sort of redirect is whether the foreign word would be out of place on the target page.Persian language gives its name in itself, English, and a few others to discuss the etymology; it does not mention the Turkish translation and I don’t think it should. I doubt that “Farsça”, unlike the native name, shows up in English-language sources that would prompt English-speaking readers to look it up here.Gorobay (talk)15:59, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per above points. --Rubbishcomputer20:03, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I can see why this could just about be a misinterpretation ofFarsiFarsi (->Persian Language, which I think would be the moreWP:COMMONNAME in English anyway) but it seems a long way off to me, andWP:RFD#D2 confusing. It looks to me like a C with acedilla, but I bet it ain't.Si Trew (talk)04:00, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Actualy it might be. But then really this starts to become afarse. We don't use C cedilla in English to differentate "hard Chard C" from "soft Csoft C, both of which redirect toHard and soft C, so we are just running around the houses here (yes, I can type C cedilla if you insisit, but that just confuses things. dööüüóöóüöóöóöóßöóüéáúűđĐŁy so).WP:NOTENGLISH.Si Trew (talk)04:05, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - "Dr. Sexy" appears to be part of a minor recurring gag inSupernatural (U.S. TV series) but neither the doctor nor the gag are mentioned there. Also perWP:CNR becauseUser:Lenticel is not in mainspace.Ivanvector 🍁 (talk)14:23, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. We don't haveDr. Sexy with the stop (period). Whatever we do we should have both or neither, yes? That's why it is a bitWP:RFD#D2 confusing. We don!t haveDr Sex. I am not sure exactly whether stops are supposed to be in abbreviations like "doctor" i learned that if the last letter of the word is the last letter of the abbreviation then it doesn't need a stop, but that is justUsage and Abusage, andFowler of course. F'rexample, I was told thatMr. for some reasons has a stop butMrs doesn't, being (which is untrue and also oxymoronic) abbreviations for "Master" and "Mistresss"). I can't help the vageness of English orthography.Si Trew (talk)06:52, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Would it? I have never seen "DR" used to mean "debit" except as a very brief abbreviation on bank statements (on which of course I have only very rarely seen CR to mean "credit"). Yourbrassic contributor, who can't afford abrassicaSi Trew (talk)03:56, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment:Old stone face was a good find by 70, props to you, because I missed it and I thought I was fairly thorough with myWP:BEFORE. I noticed the darts player when doing research on it, but figured it to either be a minor nickname or anWP:XY situation. Strangely enough,John Lowe is the only one who has that nickname mentioned at his article, so the rest failWP:DABMENTIONat this time. I don't quite have the time right now to do the research, but I'd like to look into the nickname more and verify the other 2-3 names at that dab. If it's a good dab, I feel like it'd be best tomove that dab toOld Stoneface as that is howJohn Lowe's nickname is spelled (both other people would have to spell it the other way to keep it put). If not,Old Stoneface andOld stone face would/should beredirected/retargeted toJohn Lowe (maybe with hatnotes depending if one one other has the nickname and how prominent it is.) I'll update this post when my research is concluded, but I wanted to get that out there now in case someone knows more than me or has other opinions. --Tavix(talk)15:43, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
