I thought it does actually partially direct to at least hate (as a male target for hatred) and considering the possibility of someone at a future time typing the exact words into the search, would be a functional and effective redirect; as a similar function, to a search engine, but with an exact return.23h112e (talk)18:51, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• 丁 →一 (talk ·links ·history ·stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

丁 or ding which is one of the four heavenly stems, has a different meaning than "一“ yi which means one. This redirect should be deleted.Goveganplease (talk)15:06, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Disambiguate as{{Chinese title disambiguation}} forDing (surname) andCelestial stems (either of which would be a valid{{R from alternative language}} if the other didn't exist).

• Retarget I didn't realize thatDing (surname) was a page. This particular汉字 should just be redirected to that surname page instead.Goveganplease (talk)19:06, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Couldn't this be targeted toDing (surname) and that article expanded with a mention of the character being aCelestial stem, thus accommodating both possible targets? Or are both topics equally likely to be sought by readers? –Uanfala (talk)00:56, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Good question; not sure.Celestial stem gets about 2-3x as many views asDing (surname), though of course not all viewers ofcelestial stem went there looking for 丁. FWIW,zh:丁 is a disambiguation page for the surname, the stem, and Vietnam'sĐinh Dynasty;ja:丁 is an article about the stem, with a hatnote fora dab page (though both zh and ja have separate articles for each stem, whereas en doesn't). We also have other minor topics for 丁, e.g. its use inkanbun.59.149.124.29 (talk)03:13, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
