January 13[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on January 13, 2018.

Illusion (Faith Hill album)[edit]

Relisted, see Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2018 January 24#Illusion (Faith Hill album)

29 redirects fully enclosed in quotation marks[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 all redirects not singled out to be kept. I find no consensus on the other ones, with no prejudice against speedy renomination. -- Tavix (talk) 02:14, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The 29 redirects

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

There are a few hundred redirects following the pattern "xyz" → xyz. I am of the opinion that they should all be deleted unless quotes are used in the original (e.g. "300") or the phrase frequently appears within quotes (e.g. "Betray Us"—although on these redirects my !vote would probably only be "weak keep"). Here are the first 29 redirects that do not fit those criteria, going through the alphabet through C. I propose that we delete them.

To avoid a total trainwreck here, I suggest the following: If you are generally in favor of deleting these redirects, but believe that a handful (five or fewer, let's say) should be kept, I hereby give you permission to unilaterally strike those redirects from the list (using <s>...</s>), provided that you explain your reasoning in your edit summary and/or a comment. If I disagree with your reasoning for striking them, I'll nominate them individually at a later date.  — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 22:28, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Steel1943: The following articles put the title in quotation marks within the body: "Caliban's Dream", "All About That Bass", "A Little Boy Lost", and "(It) Feels So Good". The following go to articles with italicized titles: "Cardinal Burns", "Cage on the Sea", "Boots with Brass", "Blues from the Apple", "Agnes Escapes from the Nursing Home", "A feather on the breath of God", "A Night in Malnéant", and "...explosante-fixe...". The following go to DAB pages where some entries are in quotation marks or italicized: "Can't Get Enough", "Bob", and "All My Friends". — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 02:58, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@PinkAmpersand: Thanks for breaking down the nominations. By the way, I had to fix the target of "A Night in Malnéant" as it seems its target article contained the title in italics in error. Anyways, per the information presented, weak keep "Caliban's Dream", "All About That Bass", "A Little Boy Lost", "(It) Feels So Good", "A Night in Malnéant", "Can't Get Enough", "Bob", and "All My Friends". Delete the rest. Steel1943 (talk) 05:51, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. Hhhhhkohhhhh (talk) 09:28, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

955 timer IC[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. -- Tavix (talk) 23:23, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No “955” is mentioned in the article; this is either a typo, a non-notable related product, or maybe even a hoax. LaundryPizza03 (talk) 21:36, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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

Template:Wilmington Hammerheads squad[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 speedy close. Will be deleted anyway per WP:CSD#G8 if the target was deleted. (non-admin closure) GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 05:22, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unused redirect for a defunct team. Unnecessary to maintain redirect for semi-pro sides. I've nominated the template for deletion as well. Jay eyem (talk) 19:59, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Smart pill[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. Killiondude (talk) 19:47, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The term "smart pill" is not mentioned at the target page and it is certainly not specific to Adderall. The term could be used for other ADHD medications and other kinds of drugs as well such as nootropics. Peacock (talk) 18:04, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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

SmartPill[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. -- Tavix (talk) 22:17, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The term "SmartPill" is not mentioned at the target page. Presumably SmartPill is a brand name for a specific type of capsule used in endoscopy, but since it isn't notable enough to be mentioned in the article, the redirect is inappropriate (and perhaps promotional). Peacock (talk) 18:01, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. Killiondude (talk) 19:46, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete shortcut. It is useless and not being used. QuackGuru (talk) 16:44, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

SMcCandlish, do you remember you told me the following: No essay needs that many shortcuts, especially a new one no one mentions but its author. A shortcut that has no obvious referent, isn't unambiguous, isn't memorable, and/or isn't likely to be used, is known as "polluting the namespace", routinely deleted at RfD. I remember. QuackGuru (talk) 02:16, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Which redirect? There are various ones we delete. None of the ones you've nominated in relation to this page have no obvious referent, aren't unamibiguous (within the context), aren't memorable (other than the freaky one that looks like a disambiguated article title), or wouldn't be used (ditto).  — SMcCandlish ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ʌ<  03:22, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I quoted you. You can tell me which redirect or redirects. Close to the same time we were discussing the essay, you deleted a redirect from the essay, but now you want to keep it as a redirect. You created this shortcut, but have you used Wikipedia:CITATIONCONFUSION or plan on using Wikipedia:CITATIONCONFUSION? QuackGuru (talk) 03:44, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Already been over this [1]. I'm just going to repeat "Keep as matching the section name" and move on. This is starting to feel like some kind of personality struggle and finger-pointing game, and I'm not interested. I repeat [2] also: who created which redirect is irrelevant.  — SMcCandlish ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ʌ<  17:13, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It does not match the section name. The previous section name was confusing. Changing the section name was easy. I disagree with editors using Wikipedia:CITATIONCONFUSION becuase it could spread confusion. QuackGuru (talk) 19:47, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retargettoHurricane Ismael#Aftermath. (non-admin closure) Galobtter (pingó mió) 11:23, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There was no such thing as a storm named "Israel". The name was supposed to be included in the naming list of the 2001 Pacific hurricane season as a replacement for "Ismael", but was never used and was replaced with "Ivo" instead. CycloneYoris (talk) 02:44, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was retarget bothtoAtomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. -- Tavix (talk) 02:36, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I boldly redirected Genbaku to the most sensible target, which appears to be Hiroshima Peace Memorial. Gembaku is not a plausible misspelling considering that most languages differentiate between m and n, including both English and Japanese. We do not, for example, have HiroshinaHiroshima.

Premier British Wrestling[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 retargettoGlobal Force Wrestling. The question at hand seems to have been solved by the RM because there is no longer a disambiguation page at Global Force Wrestling, indicating a clear primary topic for these redirects. This is without prejudice against a nomination of one or a few of these for a different reason. -- Tavix (talk) 20:57, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Should these redirect to Impact Wrestling, Global Force Wrestling (2014–2017), or the disambiguation page Global Force Wrestling? The retargeting of the third target to the first target following the move back to the second target has confused AvicBot. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 01:40, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
