March 2[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on March 2, 2016.

Ms. Rodham[edit]

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's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was retargettoRodham. --BDD (talk) 20:42, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

These could equally refer to other female Rodhams (Dorothy Howell Rodham exists, though a married name); bad titles per MOS:LASTNAME (see WP:NCP as well) anyhow, so they shouldn't be disambiguated (Rodham already exists). Implausible, as every notable person could potentially be referred to by these common titles (i.e. honorific prefixes).Godsy(TALKCONT) 22:35, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page.

Belbury[edit]

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's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was delete. Deryck C. 23:55, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Neelix WP:PTM that's masking other uses of the term, including "Belbury Castle." -- Tavix (talk) 13:16, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I considered whether the castle could be referred to as Belbury alone. Your average castle could certainly be referred to in this way, e.g., "Pontefract" for Pontefract Castle. But "Belbury Castle" may not have even been a castle, and it wouldn't've been called Belbury when it stood, certainly. So I'm skeptical. Do we know where the name came from, though? Is it a local place name? --BDD (talk) 14:38, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It could be: "near Blackbury Castle and below Belbury, near Ottery St Mary"[1] is an example. I also found some mentions of another Belbury, in Dorset - "iron anchor and chain from the hill-fort of Belbury"[2] - which is now usually called Bulbury and is in Lytchett Minster and Upton. Bulbury is mentioned, but not described, in the Lytchett Minster article. Peter James (talk) 19:29, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have enough to make a stub? Even if it's just a sentence or two, places are presumed notable. --BDD (talk) 19:33, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The result of the discussion was no consensus. --BDD (talk) 20:39, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This word has a bunch of uses unrelated to the target. (Neelix) Legacypac (talk) 05:10, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, BDD (talk) 16:46, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure about other editors' experiences, but my auto-correct function automatically changes "matrics" to "matrices." -- Notecardforfree (talk) 18:43, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Donald Drumpf[edit]

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's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was redirect to Donald Trump (Last Week Tonight). I, JethroBT drop me a line 02:01, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Need to redirect to Donald Trump (Last Week Tonight). "Donald Drumpf" was nonexistent before a few days ago, but the term now exists thanks to this show. epicgenius (talk) 15:14, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Update: As long as the article Donald J Drumpf exists, I no longer have an opinion, and am thus neutral. Steel1943 (talk) 21:39, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Update 2: As there are multiple options and no clear primary topic, I now say that Donald Drumpf should become a disambiguation page. I have no strong opinion on whether not Donald Trump should be included on it or not, but if I were to follow my initial rationale to "keep" the redirect as it, then it should be added, maybe as a "See also" entry so that the tie is not as strong to warrant a strong BLP violation. Steel1943 (talk) 21:50, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Alright, I'm going to backtrack a bit. I tried to find a place to add that information to Trump's article, but couldn't find a good place. It seemed trivial in his campaign section, and his personal life section is dominated by his marriages and religion. On the other hand, The Last Week Tonight episode does do a good job of describing the name, so I'll stay neutral for now (ie: I don't care if it's kept or retargeted.) -- Tavix (talk) 15:54, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • To me, this validates keeping the redirect where it targets so that readers know what this term refers to. Just because a television show popularized the term doesn't mean that the term refers to the show. As we have all in one way or another already stated during the course of this discussion, the term refers to Donald Trump. Steel1943 (talk) 15:51, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually it is far too early to suggest consensus has been reached in light of these [1][2] articles and the current postings shifting the answer toward KEEP. --Potguru (talk) 00:23, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as is? You seemed pretty intent on writing the Donald J Drumpf article. epicgenius (talk) 02:28, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Potguru: "It has a Wikipedia article, therefore it's notable enough to have a Wikipedia article" is circular reasoning and most certainly isn't enough to shove an article past WP:GNG. --Nathan2055talk - contribs 00:37, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Article has now been deleted. pbp 18:47, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

But with Donald J Drump redirecting to Donald Trump (Last Week Tonight), wouldn't be a two-entry DAB? pbp 18:42, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Atsme: Note that this is not a deletion discussion for the Donald Trump (Last Week Tonight) article. This is a discussion about a redirect; and even if the information in the Last Week Tonight article is merged with Trump himself, shouldn't Drumpf redirect to the portion of the Trump article that discusses that? There really isn't any reason for the redirect to be deleted. Retargeted, maybe. pbp 22:10, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thx, Purplebackpack89 - I changed it. Sorry, I guess the [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ] in the header threw me off. Hopefully WP editors aren't planning to make every skit on late night talk shows into articles. WP would need a building the size of the cloud to hold it all.

D-AXAX[edit]

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's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:36, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"D-AXAX" is an Airbus test registration, which is not mentioned in the target article. From the Aircraft registration article: D-AUAA to D-AZZZ (test registrations) for aircraft manufactured by AirbusatFinkenwerder. I can't see how this would be useful. sst✈ 08:21, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

3D Internet[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:35, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is misleading. The concept of a 3D Internet goes far beyond MMORPGs. "3D Internet" isn't mentioned at the article. -- Tavix (talk) 02:27, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Demi Lovatoes[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. You say lovato, I say lovato. --BDD (talk) 20:35, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as nonsense. It makes no sense to pluralize "Demi Lovato" as there is only one of her. -- Tavix (talk) 02:18, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Newsroom (Indian TV series)[edit]

The result of the discussion was delete. --BDD (talk) 20:38, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This page was moved to Reporters (Indian TV series), which was then redirected to Sony Entertainment Television (India) and later turned back into an article. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 01:18, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

On second thought, this should be deleted. The show was never actually known as The Newsroom (or at least I can't find a source that says that), it was simply at one point referred to as an untitled newsroom comedy. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk)
I didn't meant to say that the series was earlier known as Newsroom. I meant to say that the series was a newsroom drama. I earlier knew that the series was untitled. So I created the article with the title Newsroom, since it was a newsroom drama. When the title of the series was final as Reporters, then I moved the Newsroom article to Reporters. Now I don't know why the bot redirected NewsroomtoSony Entertainment Television (India). Mr. Smart ℒION☎️04:30, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
