This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on April 20, 2009

Sparky (Atomic Betty) → List of characters in Atomic Betty
The result of the discussion was keep. Wizardman 14:13, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Proposing this redirect be deleted. It was originally created as a redirect before being expanded into a stub article by a known vandal in contravention of a ban. As an article, it was the subject of an AfD and then returned to being a redirect. The only significant editing was by the aforementioned sockpuppet. The redirect's name is an unlikely search term, no articles link to it and there is a disambiguation page for Sparky which includes the Atomic Betty character.

 * Oppose; The name of a character in significant fiction is always a good search term. That it was improperly expanded, is no reason to remove it. DGG (talk) 23:48, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree that the name of the character is a good search term, but, as I said, there's a disambiguation page for Sparky that includes this particular one. This redirect is, really, redundant, since no one is likely to use the full name of the redirect as a search term or, if they try something similar, they'll end up either at the disambig page or the main article. -- BlueSquadron Raven  03:21, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

 * keep as Sparky has so many uses that a user would assume that any article would need a disabiguation in the title, and this would be the logical one. PaulJones (talk) 19:05, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per PaulJones. — This, that, and the other [talk] 07:36, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:!Most wanted articles → Wikipedia:Most wanted articles
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 14:13, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Implausible redirect with no useful inbound links. Stifle (talk) 12:48, 20 April 2009 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete --Dweller (talk) 12:50, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Exclamation marks are often used to promote something in sort order (see Special:ListUsers). Why this is wanted here is questionable. — This, that, and the other [talk] 07:38, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Eurofag → Metrosexual
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 14:14, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Term may not be notable, redirects to an article that doesn't mention it and even urban dictionary, that splendid non RS, shows Metrosexual as being just one of several possible definitions. Dweller (talk) 12:15, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete At best, the term is inaccurate, at worst, derogatory. -- BlueSquadron Raven  21:14, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete it would more likely mean Eurotrash (term) than metrosexual. 76.66.196.218 (talk) 04:37, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as attack page (WP:CSD). Robofish (talk) 03:30, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Morrison-Sounsview Avenues (New York Subway) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
The result of the discussion was delete all. Wizardman 14:15, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

       
 * Morrison-Soundsview Avenues (6 Line) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison-Sounsview Avenues (6 Line) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison-Soundview Avenues(IRT Pelham Line) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison-Sound view Avenues(IRT Pelham Line) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison-Sound View Avenues(IRT Pelham Line) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison Avenue-Sound View Avenue (IRT Pelham Line station) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison-Sound View Avenues (IRT Pelham Line station) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)
 * Morrison-Soundview Avenues (IRT Pelham Line station) → Morrison Avenue–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line)

Delete all The first 6 redirects are typos (misspelling of Soundview or no space between the end of "Avenues" and the first parenthesis). The remaining are extraneous redirects that clutter up search results ("station" is added to the end). However, these last 3 redirects may have been part of a previous naming convention, I am unsure of that.

 * Delete all per nom as xe summed it up nicely. Tavix | Talk  23:47, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Question Is there a correctly spelled redirect that includes the "(6 Line)" description in it? DanTD (talk) 03:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * There is Morrison-Soundview Avenues (6 Line). And I did not nominate Morrison Av–Soundview (IRT Pelham Line) because abbreviations used by the MTA should be acceptable redirects. Tinlinkin (talk) 00:35, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

List of clubs in India → List of football clubs in India
The result of the discussion was delete. Wizardman 14:16, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Broad redirect; not all clubs in India are football related. Tavix | Talk  02:09, 20 April 2009 (UTC) 'The above is preserved as the archive of a RfD nomination. Please do not modify it.'
 * Delete That's a persuasive nom. --Dweller (talk) 12:18, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * delete as per nom. PaulJones (talk) 19:48, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Too broad a term leading to a too-specific one. -- BlueSquadron Raven  22:26, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

PASKAU → Royal Malaysian Air Force PASKAU
<div class="boilerplate mfd" style="background:#FFEEDD; margin-top:0.5em; padding:0 10px 0 10px; border:1px solid #888888;">The result of the discussion was merged, dealt with. Wizardman 14:17, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

The target article has the wrong title right now (the official and most common name of that military unit is PASKAU. The "Royal Malaysian Airforce"-prefix has no reasoning here). Hence I wanted to move it there. But a look into the page history of PASKAU revealed that until January 5, 2008 the article was actually found under this title. Then it was (suddenly and without prior discussion) moved to it's current title Royal Malaysian Air Force PASKAU. Unfortunately User:Rizuan, who did this, did not actually move the page, but simply copypasted the source text and then turned the "old" article into a redirect. Thus, the whole page history up to January 5, 2008 can be found on that redirect page that I now want to turn back into the main article page. That's why I did not want to outright speedy delete the redirect page, which would be the usual procedure when a redirect page blocks a move. Any suggestions what to do with this page? The article is of bad quality anyway, but the first thing to do should be to move it to the correct place. DavidDCM (talk) 18:56, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Article tagged for a history merge. - Eureka Lott 11:40, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Didn't know such an "easy" option existed. Sorry for posting in the wrong subpage. --DavidDCM (talk) 08:15, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Close - history merge complete, nothing further to discuss here. Robofish (talk) 03:31, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
