Sword-skeleton theory → Anti-elitism
The result of the debate was withdrawn by the nominator. — Gavia immer (talk) 14:03, 22 March 2008 (UTC) Obscure redirect. Target page used to have a quotation that included the redirect's title, but the quotation was removed. Only one article, one talk page, and one archive link to the redirect.

 * keep, redirects are cheap, I'm also restoring the deleted quote. --dab (𒁳) 10:05, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, nomination withdrawn.  D a n si m a n  ( talk | Contribs ) 13:57, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

$ → Trigun

Unlikely redirect. And links to nowhere but here. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:43, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete then redirect to dollar. JuJube (talk) 03:37, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment why the need for a redirect? The dollar sign, AFAIK, is only a $. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 03:57, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know, it just doesn't seem too farfetched. JuJube (talk) 04:27, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * $$ and $$$ are sometimes used to indicate wealth and expense, but since they would be more likely used in Wiktionary, rather than here, delete. If for some reason it is kept, redirect both $ and $$ to expense. B.Wind (talk) 15:48, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment does $$ or higher also exist? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:14, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I have seen $$$$ and $$$$$ used in a few periodicals to indicate the average price of a meal at a restaurant, or the price of a room in a hotel, but not nearly with the frequency of occurrence as $, $$, and $$$ (as indicated above). I seriously would doubt the use of anything longer than $$$ as a plausible search term, however. B.Wind (talk) 20:05, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Change redirect to Dollar sign, where $ redirects to. JeremyMcCracken (talk) 14:55, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I'd prefer the link to target expense, per B.Wind's thoughts. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:03, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Create dab or keep -- the use of "$$" seems to be a in-universe monetary system in the Trigun anime series called "double dollars", like how Simoleons are an in-universe money for The Sims. Per the Trigun article: "Most of the damage attributed to Vash is caused by bounty hunters after the "60,000,000,000$$" (sixty billion "double dollars") bounty on Vash's head for the destruction of the city of July." Guroadrunner (talk) 09:01, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete $$ has no reason to redirect there. Antonio Lopez (talk) 19:39, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Change redirect per Jeremy McCracken. -Sean Curtin (talk) 00:33, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - grossly improbable; obscure Trigun reference is highly non-encyclopedic. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  17:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

XXXXX → Pixie (porn star)
The result of the debate was No consensus to delete. Removing as many extraneous references as possible, but not a BLP violation. Keegan talk 19:44, 10 April 2008 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
