Fuck man → Pac-Man
The nominated redirect was Nomination withdrawn -- Cyde↔Weys 18:50, 29 July 2006 (UTC) I can't see any rational reason why a search for "fuck man" should redirect to Pac-Man. Maybe there's some fad I should know about? -- H·G (words/works) 04:57, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The original title of Pac-Man was "Puck-Man". It was altered to the eventual title when the it was realised that it could easily be turned into "Fuck-Man", were the cabinet to be defaced; I can only imagine this fact resulted in the creation of this redirect. As for the redirect itself, it seems harmless to me, provided that the information I just gave is made clear.--SB | T 06:13, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Perhaps a headline such as Fuck man redirects here. For other uses, see Fuck man (disambiguation). BigNate37T·C 07:15, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Is it really terrible that the phrase Fuck man redirects here makes me giggle? -- Daduzi  talk  07:32, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks to Sean Black's info, I'm withdrawing my nomination. I wasn't able to find any useful info in some Google searches, but perhaps I should've looked further. If there's a legitimate reason for the redirect, then I agree that there's no point for removing it. -- H·G (words/works) 18:28, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

WP:GOD → Jimbo Wales
The nominated redirect was deleted by Cyde. Kusma (討論) 16:43, 8 August 2006 (UTC) In addition to being a cross-namespace redirect, the redirect does not make sense. Perhaps those Wikipedians who treat Jimbo Wales like a deity would find this redirect understandable, but this unnecessary Jimbo-worshipping needs to stop (he's an editor too, after all). --  tariq abjotu  (joturner) 03:26, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. -- Renesis13 04:29, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and because the last thing we need is to have religious wars over the nature of Jimbo's divinity. I can see it now, people writing J-mbo W-les because they don't want to write his name in vain... JoshuaZ 04:36, 29 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Change target to User:Jimbo Wales. It's a joke. Laugh. Noone wants to worship Jimbo (as far as I know). --Zoz (t) 14:33, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * If we are retargeting, a better alternative might be User:EnthusiastFRANCE (see User:God). More to the point, this could get out of hand and I think the redirect is deleteworthy. BigNate37T·C 16:29, 29 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete, it could probably (unnecessarily) offend some people. Not that I care one whit, mind you, but if a loony right-wing publication gets a whif of Jimbo being deified as a God on-wiki ... ugh.  -- Cyde↔Weys  18:52, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Rbraunwa 18:53, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete for what Cyde said. Kevin_b_er 21:31, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per nom. -- Tu s  pm (C 23:24, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or the Wikitruth people will pounce all over it.  Neon    Merlin   23:39, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as silly and useless. ... although it's not really a cross-namespace redirect, since WP: isn't a namespace... (ESkog)(Talk) 04:20, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment it's not technically a CNR but effectively it is. WP is a pseudonamespace and a shortcut to the Wikipedia namespace. Use as other than intended is a slippery slope of open worm cans. Having said all that, if we still want to define J-mbo W-les, I guess I won't argue. BigNate37T·C 19:03, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Nazinigger → ethnic stereotypes in pornography
The nominated redirect was deleted. — freak([ talk]) 15:28, Jul. 29, 2006 (UTC) Nazinigger was a non-notable, no-longer-existant joke site. Even if it were notable, that redirect hardly makes any sense. And, just to add insult to injury, it's a double redirect!

What_wikipedia_is_not → What Wikipedia is not
The nominated redirect was Deleted -- Cyde Weys 15:08, 8 August 2006 (UTC) cross namespace redirect Polonium 17:20, 29 July 2006 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete. Cross-namespace redirect that implies "What_wikipedia_is_not" is a suitable encyclopedia topic. Rbraunwa 18:56, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Orphan and delete - I could have sworn this was deleted in the past, but apparently not. There are less than 200 wikilinks to this, so cleaning up the list won't be much trouble. Cowman109 Talk 04:58, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Elements → WikiProject_Elements
The nominated redirect was Deleted. -- JLaTondre 14:32, 5 August 2006 (UTC) cross namespace redirect Polonium 17:20, 29 July 2006 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete as per nomination. Rbraunwa 18:57, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Was based upon a move in 2002. Crossnamespace to go. Kevin_b_er 21:31, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Rock out → American Wedding
The nominated redirect was Deleted. -- JLaTondre 14:13, 5 August 2006 (UTC) The phrase "rock out" is well known, and did not originate from or become popularized by American Wedding. Umdunno 18:15, 29 July 2006 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of an RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete per above - potentially misleading, and there may be possibility for an article there in the future as it is a well known term. This redirect would discourage its creation. Cowman109 Talk 04:56, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
