• Wikistalker →Cyberstalking (links ·history ·stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

I wassurprised to find this in article space. I don't think thatwikistalking is a concept well known outside of Wikipedia jargon, and indeed it is not mentioned at the target. Its hatnote treatment there is the result of a previous discussion, but that discussion is coming up on 7 years old, and I think our consensus has generally changed abouthow to deal with this sort of cross-namespace redirect (delete it). Furthermore, the use of the "stalk" languageon-wiki wasdeprecated years ago, andWikistalking was deleted andsaltedin2006.Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits)22:40, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, this is pretty trivial, very trivial for mainspace. I created it apparently, in 2009, most of my work back then was lower quality. 2009 was not a good year for a lot of people.B137 (talk)23:13, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Google search saysWikistalker, a Wikipedia browser with navigation based on semantic (and ontological) relevance is primary topic.wbm1058 (talk)23:53, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - There is no good target for this in the mainspace. Unless this is converted to across namespace redirect, which I wouldn't support, it should be deleted.— Godsy ^(TALK_CONT)11:26, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Second Elizabethan EraSecond Elizabethan Era →Post-war Britain (links ·history ·stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Should bedeleted orretargeted toElizabeth II#Reign. Compared to the widespread usage ofVictorian era, "Second Elizabethan era" pales in comparison.Thatcher's BritainThatcher's Britain rendersabout 8,330 results in Google Books, compared to7,740 less for this redirect. I think eras nowadays in the UK are normally named after prime ministers, rather than for kings and queens. --Nevé–selbert22:05, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect: If the title is out there, (and it is) redlinking is just bait to recreate.Montanabw^(talk)01:34, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget as proposed. An IP has added a description of post-war Britain as the Second Elizabethan Era only yesterday; this should be reverted. Nominator is apparently correct that eras haven't really been described according to the reigning monarch sinceEdward VII (or sinceWorld War I). And Elizabeth II's reign doesn't quite overlap with the postwar period anyway, by about a decade.Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits)21:46, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Retarget toElizabeth II#Reign given that such a change appears like a reasonable compromiseCoffeeWithMarkets (talk)03:55, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible and misleading redirect. In 2008,Red State was little more than a script with no funding. In no way is it a "2008 film" when it hadn't even filmed a second that year. Also nominatingRed State (2009 film).Nohomersryan (talk)21:19, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• So added.Red State (2010 film) also exists—do you want to add it, or do you see that as more plausible? --BDD (talk)21:23, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hm, I think that one should go too but the case for keeping that one might be stronger since the film was probably finished before it came out in early 2011. I've added it too.Nohomersryan (talk)21:30, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is a problem. It was indeed merged into the target article, but there's no mention of it whatsoever there.

• Tsett →ß (links ·history ·stats)     [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] 

Delete. This is an Anglicized spelling of German “Zett”, which means ⟨z⟩. ⟨ß⟩ is “Eszett”. The proper target would therefore beZ, but since the letter ⟨Z⟩ is not specifically German, it would not make sense to retarget it there, perWP:RFOREIGN.Gorobay (talk)13:37, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment There'sess-tsett so people are going to try to look for tsett anyway, but hatnotes can help. There's also some organization that uses those letters but it needs notability.AngusWOOF (bark •sniff)18:14, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • “Ess-tsett” exists because it is a German letter, so it is often called by its German name, even in English. “Tsett” is just the letter Z. English-speakers don’t call Z “tsett”.Gorobay (talk)16:20, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom --Lenticel^(talk)01:46, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - the search engine doesn't correct "the thing" searches, although the intended target comes up in search results, so this sort of redirect is marginally useful in case a reader likes to type "the" in the search box, and it's valid here in the sense that "the meniscus" is reasonably common shorthand for themeniscus (liquid) (the article itself refers to it as "the meniscus"). But the misspelling makes this that much more implausible, and it has 3 hits in the last 90 days, so it might as well go.Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits)12:45, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
