Contested redirect - single source is primary. Fails WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:39, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

 * An anonymous user removed the redirect to A1 Hrvatska... why is this simply not reverted, what do we need AFD for? --Joy (talk) 17:17, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
 * As per recent discussions at ANI, any contested redirects cannot simply be redirected again.  Onel 5969  TT me 17:40, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Is there actually contesting if the person is not leaving any edit summary or any talk page messages explaining what they want to do? Most of their edits over the course of the last month are already simply reverted already. If there's no objections, I'd just do the same here and protect the redirects for a month or two. --Joy (talk) 18:18, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I was told there were no ifs ends or butts, the revert gets challenged, the only option is AfD. That is, of course, it hasn't been altered so as to meet GNG, at that point, I'd mark it reviewed.  But that was not the case here (it rarely is).  Feel free to have at it.  Onel 5969  TT me 20:11, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Support deletion of article, Support reinstatement of redirect, Supported suggested PP. The IP's creation should be deleted, the stable redirect reinstated, and this page, as well as Vip Mobile (for same disruptive reasons) should be PP so the redirects would stay in place. Full story as I know it: This one editor (same IP range of 5.39.159.xxx) keeps messing with both this page and Vip Mobile claiming that Vipnet is still Vipnet, despite clear sourcing (and heck, the company's website) clearly stating the company renamed to A1. This page, (Vipnet) had been stable as a redirect for about 5 years redirecting to A1 Hrvatska (and Vip mobile going to A1 Srbija). I have had both pages watched since March 3rd due to this IP range's repeated creations and have reverted these false claims each time. It had been too slow and manageable for me to think a PP request would have been accepted, but I think since this has continued, PP might be accepted now. Essentially the created pages have appeared to be lookalike copies of the pages they had redirected to, just with a scrubbing of anything calling it A1 and reverting to the old names. The IP has consistently failed to prove that the company still uses the old name (or that it reverted to the old name). Zinnober9 (talk) 21:18, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
