Nickname not widely used, it seems. There are results referring to the target, but they don't make it worth keeping because (a). it seems like individuals invented the nickname themselves, unaware of others using it, (b). it is being used very informally in nonRS sources and (c). the nickname seems have been created relatively recently (21st Century, maybe?) and certainly not while Roosevelt was alive or recently dead.Mr. Guye (talk)22:54, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - not only do I not find any significant use of this nickname for FDR, I find some use for it referring to other persons or businesses entirely. Seems like a hoax or something to me. ETA: Also, I just noticed the creator of this redirectParable1991 (talk ·contribs ·deleted contribs ·logs ·filter log ·block user ·block log) was indef blocked for socking over 9 years ago. --Krelnik (talk)13:13, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not mentioned at target after the redirection of theWii homebrew article almost a year ago.Pppery20:34, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - I was the one who originally redirected it 3 years ago, because there was simply no way it'd meet our notability requirements. It's not a particularly helpful search term either, so I fully agree with getting rid of it entirely.Sergecross73msg me20:49, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I found this redirect very confusing, so much so that it almost put me off fixing the link that took me to it. There are dozens and dozens of links on the page, most having nothing to do with Missouri. Isn't it usually the practice to have a city/state name combination with their own page? have seen dozens, if not more, like that. The "section" function doesn't work in the dab solving tool by the way. That just took me to the top of the page.Hyperbolick (talk)20:04, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I don't think there's a "best practice" on what to do in a situation when a state has multiple places with the same name. Some editors consider itincomplete disambiguation and redirect it to the parent disambiguation (which is the set-up with Sargent, Missouri. There'sSargent, Scott County, Missouri andSargent, Texas County, Missouri, both listed atSargent#Places). Other editors create a separate disambiguation page at that name, an example of which isBaisden, West Virginia. Personally, I prefer having less disambiguation pages to maintain, so I usually prefer redirecting to the parent disambiguation (the current set-up). A big exception is when there's a lot of entries on a disambiguation page, and someone might get confused by the amount of entries. In that case, I'll usually just leave/create the disambiguation at "City, State". In this case, I think the best solution would be to just leave it alone, and split the people out to a separate surname index. There'll be alot less links on that page, and hopefully be a lot less confusing as well. --Tavix(talk)20:37, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Refine target toSargent#Places the dab page has two entries pertaining to places in Missouri.AngusWOOF (bark •sniff)05:31, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Refine target per above. No need to create a second disambiguation page.Smartyllama (talk)15:12, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Virginia State Route 696 (Lee County)

- 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 wasno consensus. The old article has been restored and the redirect has been retargeted to reflect that. Whether that article should remain or not would be an argument forWP:AFD to solve should there be disagreement moving forward. --Tavix(talk)13:36, 30 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The target list's scope is literally all local roads in most of Virginia (seeByrd Road Act; every Lee County road, except perhaps a few streets in towns, is a state highway), so (1) it's not useful to redirect titles there (we have no need to provide information about average roads; we're not a directory of average, little country roads), and (2) this is a 200-foot-long spur of a typical minor road appearing on this list (I've removed it, per reasons given in (1)); if this one warrants mention, literally every road in most of the state warrants mention. Seemap; would it be reasonable to have a "List of roads in Tennessee" that mentions Maness Road, a significantly longer route a few hundred feet away, and would it be reasonable to have a redirect forManess Road (Hancock County) to that list? If not, no reason to have this one.Nyttend (talk)02:15, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.Relisting comment: The redirect's creator had not been notified. I'm doing so now and relisting to allow time for a response if one is desired.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, --Tavix(talk)14:25, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply] - I restored the old target which had been redirected to the list without a merge. The route was formerly primary, hence its importance. --NE215:17, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep with new target - former primary roads are notable and this is a plausible search term.Smartyllama (talk)15:14, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete—Although former primary state highways are barely on the notable side of the spectrum, they should be discussed in the context, such as a list of former primary state highways, rather than redirecting to a secondary highway article or a list of secondary highways. Virginia State Route 696 (Lee County) is not a plausible redirect because very few people even know about it. By comparison, Route 600 is plausible because it appears on official maps.
