It doesn't look like this film was ever made. It's not mentioned at the target article or the subject's IMDB page.BDD (talk)20:21, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete film was announced, and it is Damian Lee's directing and writing,[1] but it is not even mentioned at his article so this can be deleted until the film is actually being produced instead of being an announced idea on the back burner.AngusWOOF (bark •sniff)20:02, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#F1. Redundant takes precedence overWP:WikiProject Formula 1. This should be retargeted there, because it is the only criteria that breaks from the expected pattern (i.e.X1,X2,X3...). However, there are quite a few existing links to this title (less then 500).— Godsy (TALKCONT)07:17, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep well-established, highly used shortcut, retargeting will surely break links. -CHAMPION(talk) (contributions) (logs)01:10, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget per nom. Don't make one speedy criterion redirect nonstandard.Pppery01:14, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Restorethis revision and work from there. The revision is adisambiguation page. Yes, this is the only applicable "letter-number" shortcut which doesn't target its applicable CSD criterion (pernom andPppery), but it's targeted its current target for a total amount of time of almost 10 years (perChampion). So yes, best just make it a dab.Steel1943 (talk)14:40, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget per nom andhatnote back to old target. ----Patar knight -chat/contributions16:35, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Restore dab page per Steel1943. I'm not convinced that the CSD should take precedence. F1 is widely understood to mean Formula One in many contexts, this would trump obscure CSDs that only mean something to a handful of WP regulars.WP:CSD F1 is good enough. As for the fact that it "breaks the pattern": the "pattern" should instead be designed in a way that does not collide with established unrelated conventions, not the other way around.Place Clichy (talk)14:24, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget per nom, after subst:ing all extant transclusions so as to avoid misdirected links, and add a hatnote atWP:CSD similar to our treatment ofWP:U2 (which does not targetWikipedia:WikiProject U2). It is surely improper to have just one of the CSD criteria treated with an unusual shortcut, and I reject the notion that the standard shortcut for speedy criteria should be revised as we cannot go back and change millions of edit and deletion summaries which refer to the current ones.Ivanvector (Talk/Edits)16:43, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget per Ivanvector. The parallel with the treatment ofWP:U2 is convincing. --Tavix(talk)15:01, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I think common language should take precedence over wiki-jargon even in shortcut space. You always haveWP:CSD#F1 which is clearer.Deryck C.15:29, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: The nomination is a personal opinion followed by misplaced desire to enforce uniformity in the face of common language usage. Ask a random person on the street what F1 is and they are going to tell you either that it's a motor race or else the button next to the escape key on a computer keyboard. A very small group of editors associate it with a wikibureaucratic function, while WP:F1 is not only the simplest way to represent a large and active Wikiproject, it has also become the de facto shorthand identity for that Wikiproject.Pyrope20:15, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Takashi Kawamura (fiction)

- The result of the discussion waskeep, and resolve the double redirect. --BDD (talk)18:15, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Renamed this redirect recently to the work he appears in. (fiction) is not a useful disambiguator. He's a fictional character, not fiction in general.AngusWOOF (bark •sniff)03:40, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- To attempt to clarify,Takashi Kawamura is a DAB. This R nomination is blocking a double redirect resolve, because the target as nominated is itself an R, toList_of_The_Prince_of_Tennis_characters#Takashi_Kawamura. That states to be the result of a merge, and is marked thus as
{{R from merge}}.User:AngusWOOF moved it on 15 Nov 2016 leaving this vestige as the result of the move, but I don't know where the merge discussion is or was. I think thas can safelybe deleted asWP:G6 housekeeping. I'll try that on AngusWOOF's behalf.Si Trew (talk)10:50, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Retarget to new section. The (fiction) disambiguator doesn't imply that something is fiction in general, and even if it did, according to our DAB page the new target would be the best one as the only fictional Takashi Kawamura. This redirect gets two page views a day and deleting it only harms our readers. ----Patar knight -chat/contributions11:02, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Zou're right,User:Patar knight, in that the disambiguator merely needs to be the minimum to disambiguate, and the DABs atTakashi Kawamura andKawamura don't suggest there is any other notable fictional character. Probably "standard form" would be to have "(fictional character)" but it's no big deal for that. Yet, once the RfD tag is removed they will all fall through to go viaTakashi Kawamura (The Prince of Tennis)Takashi Kawamura (The Prince of Tennis) →List of The Prince of Tennis characters#Takashi Kawamura so we need to fixup anyway. I've done most of it in the articles that would be double redirects once this is closed (whichever way it is closed). We've a surname DAB atKawamura that IW'd frenziedly to JA;WP so I've changed the IW links to plain
{{lang|ja-Hani}} perWP:DABLINK. I've not checked whether we have it in the Hiragani or Katakana yet,User:Siuenti is usually the expert on those ones if we do.Si Trew (talk)11:11, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply] - I've done all the double redirects. A bot should have fixed them, but the Rfd notice blocked that, I imagine, since then they're not redirects. The only links remaining are in editor space, not reader space.User:Patar knight declined my CSD with the comment "let RfD handle it". Fair enough, I still say delete as this is just housekeeping, now.Si Trew (talk)11:32, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- If there's a way to rename it to (fictional character) instead of (fiction) that would be great too.AngusWOOF (bark •sniff)12:06, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I think an admin can do a move without leaving a redirect,User:AngusWOOF. Is that right,User:Patar knight?Si Trew (talk)12:18, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes. In addition, editors who have theWP:Page mover permission can also do a move without redirect. --Tavix(talk)20:14, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I still feel that given this is the only thing by this name "in fiction", the redirect is OK. Removing any links to this don't solve the problem of possibly breaking external links, which is high given this is a character from a popular anime. I fully support moving it to have (fictional character) disambiguator, but think having both redirects is better, given pageviews. ----Patar knight -chat/contributions15:32, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the redirect. It serves no cause, it is completely useless and none of their other album pages have such redirects.Antti29 (talk)15:30, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
