Cock 'n balls → Penis
The result of the discussion was Speedy Delete under guideline G3:Vandalism - non admin closure - Brougham96 (talk) 21:44, 27 August 2008 (UTC) Unencyclopedic profane redirect with no apperant explanation as to why it exists. Brougham96 (talk) 20:30, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I have been bold and put a speedy tag on it. Mm40 (talk | contribs) 17:27, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents → Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents
 The result of the debate was keep. WJBscribe (talk) 01:17, 2 September 2008 (UTC) Improper cross-namespace redirect, unlikely to be typed.  MBisanz  talk 03:35, 25 August 2008 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Neutral - I created the redirect after accidentally typing it instead of Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, but I have no argument either for or against it. —  C M B J   08:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Not very likely search term for ANI. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  14:42, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. The accidental omission of the "Wikipedia" prefix is a very plausible mistake.  Both because of the actual content and the use of the subpage, there is no possibility of confusion with an actual article title.  The demonstrated benefits to our readers and editors outweigh the theoretical downsides of being a cross-namespace redirect.  Rossami (talk) 16:39, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. I just came by it by typing in "noticeboard" in the search box. It's the only result and the one I was looking for.  98.235.103.32 (talk) 18:56, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - an example of a cross-namespace redirect that is actually useful enough to be worth keeping. 'Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents' is never going to be the title of an article, so there's no risk of confusing someone looking for encyclopaedic content; but it is a relatively easy mistake for Wikipedia users to make when looking for WP:AN/I. As it's clearly useful, and causes no obvious harm, it should be kept. Terraxos (talk) 20:28, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a useful redirect; omitting the Wikipedia: is a potential mistake. Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents is extremely unlikely to be an article, so it's a good cross-namespace redirect. Midorihana   みどり  はな  22:02, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

"Me and Charlie Talking" → Kerosene (album)
The result of the debate was delete. WJBscribe (talk) 01:15, 2 September 2008 (UTC) While this is the title of a single from the album, 1.) I "doubt" that "anyone" would "type in" the "quotation marks" around the "title", and 2.) there's probably not enough material for a page on the song anyway.

'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete -- I redirected it because someone created the article, which wasn't a very notable single. On top of that, whoever made it the article only put in 2 sentences saying "its popular and the lyrics go like this " CloversMallRat (talk) 20:29, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Images of young people → Category:Images of young people
The result of the debate was delete. WJBscribe (talk) 01:13, 2 September 2008 (UTC) Cross-namespace redirect --Hugh Charles Parker (talk - contribs) 01:11, 25 August 2008 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * I'm not sure why this redirect was created, especially since it was malformed. (The lack of a leading colon applied the category instead of activating the redirect.  That's fixed now.)  There are no inbound links, meaning we have even fewer clues than normal about what the creator intended or how the redirect might be used.  Merely being a cross-namespace redirect isn't usually enough to justify deletion, though, unless it's a cross that will create confusion (like article-space to user-space).  I'm not sure what else a reader would expect to see if following this link other than the category.  We certainly would never have an encyclopedia article called merely "images of young people".  Why should this be deleted?  Rossami (talk) 01:53, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Cross-namespace redirect. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  14:41, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, cross-namespace redirect with no other history. --Aquillion (talk) 18:52, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
